Thesaurus posted:Why does it matter if the DA was having a relationship with another prosecutor in her office or that they hired to join the team? doesn't really impact the case, but it's a "probably wasted taxpayer money" problem insofar as their actions impacted the Trump case, it's good for Trump, because one of the complaints is that Wade would instead have been replaced with someone more skilled in the relevant areas pulling one or both of them for conflict of interest is not unreasonable afaict, and it's going to be a problem for Willis and possibly Wade career wise, but it's not a big deal for Trump other than buying him some delay, which he wants

Wayback posted:So what dark money group crafted the Dean Phillips homunculus out of straw and discarded hair? Getting spammed with his commercials here in NV and never heard of em until the past few weeks. he's a largely decent (except on Israel) Congressman with no national profile until this quixotic campaign, which I assume is backed by a couple people or orgs who happen to dislike Biden and inexplicably didn't want to support Marianne Williamson

emSparkly posted:If Elon could run for president the main worry I’d have is that he’d be able to straight up buy his way to victory, and even then idk how likely that is. He doesn’t have the savvy business man mythos behind him like trump did and lord knows he can’t lay down instantly attention grabbing bullshit like Don can. The boomers would look at him and think he’s a dumb millennial with a stupid voice. Instant loser with the voting public. Bloomberg tried to buy his way to victory in 2016 and his performance was completely laughable, I'm not actually concerned about that being a thing

rideANDxORdie posted:I mean immigration was handled largely the same as it has been for as long as I can remember (last 15 years or so), just with more glee and blatant racism under Trump instead of the "gosh golly gee we know this isn't ideal but what the heck can we do 🤷♂️" flavor of putting kids in cages no, the administration is (as far as I can tell) not putting kids in cages I've done some deep-ish dives on ORR's stats in dnd (sorry cant be assed to root through my post history) and what i can find of conditions but the really quick upshot is that once the emergency shelter backlog was handled the office of refugee resettlement has been handling unaccompanied minors in an... okay fashion and time frame the feds have an actual responsibility to ensure they're placed, well, responsibly. I don't think you want what happens otherwise and 20-30 processing days is 6-16 too many but it is, again, okay

2028 is very likely going to be a clown car even if Harris is the incumbent (god forbid), but we have a lot of really good clowns lined up. There are going to be people running we don't predict, even. Of the people who currently are prominent, I'm tentatively rooting for either Pritzker or a union leader - Shawn Fain is loving great, if he wants to run for president I'd love it.

Faustian Bargain posted:it’s going to be newsom vs desantis A year ago I'd agree on DeSantis but tbh I'm not sure based on his campaign this year that ol puddingfingers can beat a marginally more normal fascist. or Trump running from prison or a care home Newsom probably has actual bodies buried in his backyard. He's the closest thing to a (not incumbent Harris) frontrunner but he's a million miles from assured.

mannerup posted:I think this is still a correct take, and to offer a defense of the other side (that Trump is worse than Buchanan) you would need to make the case that Buchanan was just merely ineffective, incompetent and unable to lead during the prelude to the Civil War rather than being actively hostile towards the process (which you can point out for Johnson during early reconstruction), A large chunk of Buchanan's cabinet spent years transferring troops and material to the South in preparation for an inevitable succession. He was also actively supportive of poo poo Supreme Court decisions in favor of slavery to the point of threatening the chief justice with basically blackmail, and deliberately sat on his hands in the early days of secession. Trump is a lovely fascist who would rather like to overthrow democracy and flubbed a deliberate coup, Buchanan enabled a huge chunk of the country to launch a civil war and made it much worse than it would otherwise have been. Trump might still beat Buchanan but rn he's solidly silver medal.

wheatpuppy posted:If she drops out, and then Trump dies, can she do a Mulligan? I'm way, way more familiar with the boring details of D conventions (please try to show up for your local ones, nobody shows up so you can have a disproportionate impact toward good opinions) but under those rules if Trump dies his delegates become unbound and Haley's small number stay hers, so she's ahead of the game

At the moment there really has been bugger all delegates won so it's not much of an advantage. also she's still on the ballot even if she suspends her campaign but yeah unless she's been done bribed she should stay in on the "what if Trump dies of hamburger overdose" hail mary
