He also uses lowercase and uppercase more or less randomly - look at "HeRe" and "FRieNDS"

Actually, if you look, it's internally consistent. There's no uppercase e's or i's, except as a start of a sentence. No lowercase H's or F's, either. Except for the start of a sentence, a letter that's uppercase is always uppercase, and a letter that's lowercase is always lowercase.

So he only learned one version of the alphabet consisting of a random mix of uppercase and lowercase.

Well, you see, it turns out that Trump actually is Putin's cock holster, and in the lawsuit they would presumably have to say otherwise, so with recent events they're afraid of perjuring themselves.

Catholics aren't Christians.

The papists have voted majority Democrat for awhile. I don't think Trump's supporters would fall for it.

They wouldn't keel over braindead or anything, but it'd certainly shake them hard. And the inevitable response ("gently caress the pope!") would potentially cause the Republican party to implode.

With so many bad actors lying between Trump and impeachment I can't imagine a future where it happens. Christ look what happens when you put Trey Gowdy in front of a mic and then imagine Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan

Honestly, it kind of depends on Montana and Georgia. If Republicans lose those seats, they're probably going to completely freak out and dump Donny in favor of keeping their jobs.

Really, with NY and NH special elections they might already be freaking out, but those might not be high profile enough for them.

If you're racist, the people you're racist against are meaningless.

Therefore, any video they take of you is meaningless. It's just the word of some N-word after all.

Man. Remember when we all thought Rosenstein was a toadie? That man really turned his public imagine the gently caress around.

I rather imagine that Mueller appreciates the FBI's help.

As for Rosenstein, I'm not entirely sure that's what happened. Everyone seems worried about him being a survivor, so maybe he saw the end coming before everyone else was willing to accept it.

Not quite. I believe Trump can appoint an acting director within the limits of 5 U.S. Code § 3345.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/5/3345

Namely an FBI person of GS -15 + who was there for at least 90 days prior to the Comey firing or someone who has been approved by the Senate for a different office, if I've read the legalese correctly.

Either action would likely cause .. complications.

It would also require Trump to know the name of any member of the FBI.

A "city" is 100k to 300k. Binghamton is a "Large Town".

Oh haha no, they're just as evil the world over. For example in Finland, our current conservative government is trying to pass a massive healthcare reform that's basically major privatisation. We'll still be better off than the US afterwards, but that's merely a result of better starting point pre-wrecking.

The UK's conservative party just laid out their manifesto for the upcoming elections. Highlights include re-legalising fox hunting (as in, a party of poshos chasing down a fox on horseback with hounds, and killing the fox by having the hounds rip it apart).
