President can't pardon state level convictions from what I've read. Does it even apply to Sheriff Shitfucker? Not that Donnie Dipshit won't do it anyway if Fox & Friends run a piece on it, but if it's state level wouldn't that just be more people standing around awkwardly staring at their shoes unable to carry out the diaper baby edict of the day?

Isn't a shutdown basically inevitable at this point? It seems like a win/win for the brain dead idiot Congress critters that are hardcore ideologues. Cutting government services, destroying its ability to regulate, "starve the beast" and "drown government in the bathtub" have become articles of faith to the cult of conservatism. There's nothing in there that those kinds of whack jobs don't want. Yeah the party as a whole gets screwed in public opinion polling every time they do it but that doesn't really seem to matter to people gerrymandered into R+ gently caress You districts or the donors that would fund even more hardcore cultists if they don't vote for it enthusiastically.

Well when the choices are "hopefully cooler heads locking poo poo down and distracting the toddler in chief with shiny rattles of positive daily briefings" or "that same pissbaby slinging around his drug-shriveled dick and risking nuclear exchange because he has less understanding of diplomacy than a loving kindergartner" then maybe there are no good choices? I'm pretty OK with kicking that can and trying again later with adults in the room compared to the alternative. Ya know, the alternative that relies on a department of state where "gutted the place and stripped the copper out of the walls" is a laughably inadequate phrase?

Anger Mango's ego making him paint the rest of the GOP as the enemy is a pretty good outcome. If he can rip the party apart at the already straining seams we can hopefully start to unfuck things like gerrymandering with 2020 redistricting out of their control. Assuming of course we even have elections in 2020 instead of "elections".

Recent history is useful here. Bill Clinton was competent and politically aware and still ended up with impeachment proceedings. Trump is a loving clown that couldn't think his way out of a wet paper bag with two hands, a map and a pair of scissors. Even if we assume he's only bought and sold by Russian oligarch money funding his repeated bankruptcies and is somehow still innocent, he'll gently caress things up by flying into a narcissistic rage when the pressure starts building and welp! poo poo there's already rumblings of obstruction of justice and things are still at the approaching status of real.

It's sadly gonna be awhile before right wing terrorists are labeled terrorists. There's a lot of American cultural weight behind "fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here" as a charitable interpretation. (It's really racism when you stop being charitable) White guys aren't terrorists even when they're using violence in pursuit of political goals because White.

On the political level this is starting to feel like the beginning of The Mattering. If Donnie Dumbfuck starts to double down on being OK with Nazis because people said mean things to him that doesn't at all feel like it can slide under the radar like being a racist, misogynist hateful rear end in a top hat can in this country. There's a whole lot more room in the country than there should be that allows the latter but let's be honest about some parts of the country. There's even been a ton of work done normalizing Russian interference and pretending that Putin's just misunderstood, give peace a chance ok? But coming out and saying "yeah I'm totes cool with Nazis. Why not?" though just feels like a bridge too far for the generally willfully ignorant of the country. Even GOP Congress critters are drawing away from that one. I'm not prepared to say they're all doing it because of strong moral fiber, I think they can read the way the wind is blowing on public opinion when they start being confronted with really simple and direct, "why are you supporting Nazi's?" while Donnie looks ready to charge right into that Twitter slap fight. Really, really feels like the "worse before it gets better" line is exactly what we've got coming.

Mil culture is definitely a bunch of dick heads, but I still wouldn't worry about the decorative hate squash cancelling elections or anything. The US is super loving vulnerable to a dictatorial take over right now but in a weird way Trump may be the thing that saves us from that happening. Just because I think it would piss him off I compare him to a vaccine. Mostly useless/dead pathogens make the immune system react. Trump is so loving incompetent that he's basically a cut rate cargo-cult dictator. He sees all the stuff the other guys do and say out loud and puts his own rear end in a top hat spin on it, completely neglecting all the work that lead up to that point. The real guys give their security, Intel and military establishments the sloppiest, most unending blow jobs day in and day out that you can imagine. Ridiculous pay, social superiority, suspension of rules/laws applying to them. Everything. Trump has........not......done that, and holy loving poo poo balls is he EVER provoking a reaction. If he tries that poo poo things will get messy (ier) but there is nowhere near enough institutional support for him, even among the military, to out right take over. So I really don't think we need to worry about Trump declaring himself emperor. Not saying just let him go and walk around happy about him being in office because holy gently caress look at him. I'm saying I think the really super dangerous things we need to worry about are elsewhere.

Protest march through the middle of Philadelphia had sign after sign that was just stuff like "gently caress you nazis". No subtlety, no flowery language. That was it, "gently caress off nazis" Then some dork wanders in with a shirt that said "Feminism Is A Cancer". Sadly the cops swarmed around him and made him leave before he got an rear end whooping. Wouldn't have been as satisfying as a Nazi showing up because there were a pretty good amount of people with suspicious-for-the-weather black hoodies and pants but take what you can get. Edit: Also saw a shark swarm that would have made drill sergeants jealous of someone that landed a drone and went to pick it up. Must have been some kind of guidance specifically about that. 10 or more bike police and two vehicles mobbed up on one guy that basically poo poo a brick and pulled out his ID. bird food bathtub fucked around with this message at 02:05 on Aug 17, 2017 |

Kicking the confederate memory in the dick is always a good idea, it just also happens to be a really good way to drive home this wedge of mind meltingly out of touch idiocy Donnie Dumbfuck is vomiting all over his own party, perfectly encapsulated in condemning the terrorist attack today of driving a vehicle through a crowd. They're gonna try like hell to support just "the president" but he's so far gone with dementia and narcissism that he'll continue loving things up for the party and constantly drag them back into his poo poo-cycle of lashing out and doubling down. I really feel like he's a solved problem with this. Not in a clean and graceful way, mind you. Short term it's gonna make poo poo really ugly but long term Donnie's going to be the virulent plague that kills so fast it doesn't get to spread. He jumped into the Nazi take over bed way too fast without doing the ground work. It's the 2018 elections that have me concerned.

Zeroisanumber posted:Though to be clear, 75% is still pretty piss poor for a party poll. One of the deceptive things about the party support percentage is that it's support percent of people who identify as part of that party in a poll. If you support Donnie you're much more likely to still be saying, "gently caress yeah I'm a Republican Nazis are cool! #MAGA" If you're not exactly cool with Nazis you're suddenly going to be developing a much more nuanced position in your support for the Republican party and maybe not being quite so loud and proud about who you may or may not have voted for seven (Jesus gently caress is it really only seven?) months ago. Assuming things happen in a straightforward, legitimate fashion in the next few elections Republicans are looking to get turbo hosed by lower turnout of the people who have those nuanced positions and a wave of people royally and righteously pissed off by what is happening.
