Confirming, and breaking Opsec in the process, drawing sea dicks is a critical component to stealth and US nuclear deterance. Luckily Trump doesn't know about this just like he's unaware of anything about 'the nuclear'

Not to mention how patriotism interacts with the issue. Hypothetically, if the rest of the world cut off trade to the US until the 2nd Amendment is repealed, do you think that would work? Or do you think even liberal gun control enthusiasts would reject this foreign meddling in their affairs?

With only four ships commodore Perry opened Japan to trade. Imagine if he had carrier battle groups.

Also I'm sure Saudi Arabia would be happy to sell Eastern Europe energy instead of Russia. In some ways they already are.

So now the airlines are basically getting what they pay for with attendants that have morale somewhere between Taco Bell night shift employee and Wal-Mart shelf stocker. Accordingly, they give no fucks about treating passengers with the false smile that comes with customer-service or doing anything other than exactly what is required by the book to keep their job.

Every airline is equally bad, what competition will their clientele move to? Checkmate! Capitolism at its finest? Free hand of the market!

So let's say that the eventual outcome of this whole sordid shitshow is that there is credible evidence showing that there was collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians, including Trump himself. What happens next? Can the president be impeached for crimes committed before they took office? Can the president be indicted should the legislature decline to impeach? If the Republican-led legislature declines to impeach, how do the Democrats react to this?

It's a pretty scary feeling when you realize that democracy's institutions are only as strong as the people who make them up, and those people are idiots and assholes.

So let's say the eventual outcome of this whole sordid shitshow is that there is credible evidence showing that there was collusion to stifle any investigation into impropriety within the GOP after said impropriety has been exposed to the public...

The public opinion of his base is unswayed by reality. His base has just enough power (through their GOP officials) to deflect all repercussions.

Also todays press conference is great, like three reporters in a row have said variants of 'You claim the president wants this to be a fair investigation but you just said like 12 times that you've talked to 'many many' FBI agents about this investigation, how is that not a conflict of interest?'

And then when pushed about Comey/FBI etc, she walked off.

I would be actively more surprised if there wasn't a bunch of 24/7 recordings in a lot of places in the west wing. Not to keep the recordings, but just to have someone transcribe everything that happens because it's incredibly important to keep all the daily promises and decisions straight.

The fact that Trump took what should be an official aid to the system and publicly floated about catching people saying ~things~ is just orange levels of dumb.
