WAR CRIME SYNDICAT posted:Most of the pro trump responsible responses to that post are calling it fake news. The NYT could call Trump the greatest President since Washington and people would still call it fake news on sheer reflex.

I'm fairly certain at this point that Mike Pence is going to turn out to be the only person in Trump's campaign that wasn't collaborating with the Russians.

Solaris 2.0 posted:Its the Dog chasing the Car analogy. Now the Dog has the Car they have no idea what to do with it, and turns out the Car was driven by an orange idiot-madman. You could probably put money on a hurricane hitting Florida and Trump ordering federal assets to protect Mar-a-Lago while FEMA collapses. Two Finger posted:So in a perverse way having them in power could well be the best thing long term if the country survives the short term It's a big maybe. Losing has, if nothing else, spurred on the Democrats to revitalize the party, and there's a good chance they can retake the House if the administration continues to be a rolling disaster, leading up to a big Democratic wave in 2020 (Which will be key for redistricting). However, there is a LOT of damage the Republicans can and have been doing throughout the executive branch alone, and who knows if there will be enough of the EPA or the State Department left to save in four years. It took decades for America to built up its preeminent position at the top of the global order, and even a mere four years could irrevocably shatter our standing. Edit: Burt Sexual posted:lmao doesn't he have handlers that would say "uh mr. president, this may not play well during the work week. we have north korea, Malaysia, and china on the phone waiting for you." He would, but they're doing everything they can to circumvent the State Department because the administration is goddamn insane.

Most people really don't think about how much welfare actually aids the economy, but the cumulative effect is massive. Off the top of my head, food stamps alone generate ~$7 into the economy for every government dollar spent, and that's just one program. But of course we have to cut SNAP and anything else that could help the poor because

What's worse is you have guys like Paul Ryan who directly benefited from the welfare system and wouldn't have been nearly as successful as they are without it, and their first and only instinct is to burn it all down to satisfy their Randian delusions.

Kalanick suggested that 2,000 employees might want him to go, but more than 10,000 want him to stick around. “You’ll know when you’re a mother,” he reportedly said.

See, I've seen enough confederate flags in loving Michigan to know that it's less that the South as a region is terrible and more that dumbfucks in suburbs and rural areas are literally the worst, and unfortunately the South just happens to have a lot of suburbs and rural areas. Edit: Kicking the South out of the Union would rid us of John Lewis and leave us with Steve King, and I cannot possibly imagine a worse fate
