Nostalgia4Butts posted:if hes screaming at tvs it's gonna come time that he says gently caress it all and takes his toys and goes home. once the gop is forced to turn against him. not because he lost, but because the crooked GOP was so tainted that they rejected the will of the people who are both the people that are the only real americans and his voters. I don't think so. I think he continues to get pissed off (because those idiots in the FAKE NEWS are too stupid to see that he's making America great again!) until he's impeached, strokes out, or gets reelected in '20. Meanwhile, Pence is doing his best to stay out of the spotlight so if poo poo does hit the fan, he can still walk out onto the red carpet looking presidential.

I can understand it from an emeregency perspective, i.e. potus/vp both die somehow and continuity of government needs to be secured, but wouldn't impeachment etc. be a textbook example of a scenario where new elections would also be wholly appropriate? Why in the hell do you think anyone except these very same people would be the party frontrunners?

bird food bathtub posted:What does an indictment even do? He can just say "lol no" and it's over. It has to be an impeachment first before anything like that can apply to the president unless I'm completely wrong in my understanding. Actually, it's not that simple. The Constitution is not at all clear on the issue. There are no court rulings to use as precedent. The closest thing we have is that on the two occasions this has come up (Nixon and Clinton) the government decided not to try, suggesting they didn't believe they had the authority to indict and prosecute in proceedings outside Congressional impeachment.

It's not really a rule. Nobody knows what will happen, except that if they try it you can bet it'll be decided by the Supreme Court. Edit: That said, it's Louise Mensch. It's not happening.

^But they'll have to actually do something first. Sitting on their haunches and waiting for everything to roll in because of course it will is exactly what happened in 2016. And so far I don't see much evidence that they're going to change strategy. Most of the Trump supporters I know are still Trump supporters. Waiting for him to gently caress up just one more time isn't going to cut it.psydude posted:I'm curious because I think you're the voter that Democrats need to reach most: someone who didn't vote for Hillary but who loathes and is confused by Trump. Like, what do people who wanted to Trump That Bitch because of her e-mails think about this? In an objective, retrospective sense (I absolutely do not mean to be condescending), was it worth it? The ones I know are mostly the Ben Ghazi types. There are a couple that are starting to recognize reality, though. All the Democrats had to do to get my vote was give me a reasonable option. At least 3/4 of the (D) senators would've worked. I despised both candidates and knew exactly what my state was going to do anyway, so I voted none of the above.

Delizin posted:Pence can't pardon state crimes. Earlier news articles were talking about ongoing investigations by state Attorneys General, particularly New York. If they try all the pardoning poo poo, I really wouldn't be surprised to see state charges being brought up at some point. With all the allegations of money laundering and a possible RICO investigation it seems like they'd be able to find state law violations in there. An Al Capone style side-conviction of something tangential would be entertaining.

I've seen far more Blackhawks squawking wrong than right. They didn't learn poo poo. That shootdown completely changed AWACS training. An entire month was added to the training pipeline for new controllers and for every positional upgrade (every upgrade except instructor/evaluator). The community is still annoyed that the only person to face any real blowback was the AWACS SD. He was acquitted, at least.

Dead Reckoning posted:Actually, it was the Strike Eagle WSO kept the laser on target. It was in the article I linked. That's actually the first account I've seen where the WSO gets that credit...sounds like the crew themselves wrote it, so I'll buy that. quote:The EF-111 crew absolutely deserved the DFCs and the kill. quote:Yeah, that was some bullshit. It's been a while since I last read about the case, but IIRC there was (is) a fundamental reluctance among aircrew to officially condemn the in-the-moment decisions of their peers. See also: Tarnak Farms. The SD got left holding the potato when the music stopped. Not to say he didn't do anything wrong, but he was just one hole in the cheese. The problem with nailing the SD is that as you say, he was one cog. The entire AWACS mission crew shared equal blame, but back then the kind of internal communication used today just wasn't taught or emphasized. The one thing that could've avoided the whole situation was people in the surveillance and weapons sections talking to each other within and between the groups. A couple of people saw the Blackhawks fade, a couple of other people picked up the "new" contacts when they cleared terrain...terrain which is not displayed on the AWACS radar scope. Nobody was talking to each other. Nowadays there are a thousand variations of "Don't play 'I've got a secret'" and "a message not acknowledged is a message not received" within the AWACS community. But how the two pilots who incorrectly VIDed escaped prosecution when someone else didn't is beyond me. Honestly I don't think anyone deserved charges on that one. Blackhawks with those stubby wings...I mean, I can see how it happened.
