random thoughts
the media, to me, seems more tabloid than ever and they've certainly raked him over the coals
look at any political media it's all about taking material out of context and sensational framing
he has plenty of issues to critique like immigration, trade, war and his carnival barker delivery, etc., etc.
and at times he's a man-child and a clown, but i think the irrational over-reaction to it is stunning, even insane at times
trump's bs isn't cloaked in diplomacy and it's big, up front, and right out in the open (some if the wind is right say you can smell it for miles)
for a point of reference, let's not forget he's following obama, clearly the best speaker and political salesperson/storyteller in my lifetime
obama could shovel a truck load of bs wearing white gloves and stay as fresh as a daisy (whereas trump gets down in it and stinks up the joint)
i apologize if there are times that i probably seem insensitive to the fanned flames of the political dumpster fire of the day
to me it is the same old reheated agitprop
i'd like to blame that on paying attention to politics and following the money for years
I do not believe Trump would pack the court or he would have tried to do it already. Right ?
Try? Does Merrick Garland ring any bells? You can have one, but by ending the filibuster and not holding hearings he left the seat on the way in open for almost a year? ACB didn't have time to pick up her dry cleaning. You already did pack the court, so the Dems re-packing it is fair game.
What would Don say: "We won the election, we can do what we want." He's said it repeatedly. If the Dems win...same rules apply.
To be clear....I'm against all of it. 2 wrongs don't make it right, but the Republicans have abused their power in the Senate for years....and it appears it may be time to pay the tab.
So what are you going to do to fill all your time when Biden wins ?
Oh, and the plumbing is backed up again ...
Out soon on CD and streaming services:
"Biden My (Hard) Time After The Trumpsterfire" by Krazy Kurt and Kultural Revolution
I want a copy!
Man, am I glad I am not American. If I was, I would want to shave all the heads of the Trump supporters and force them to run gauntlets of angry women wielding pots, pans and kitchen utensils.
Attached to 3 metre long handles and driven by catapult style engines.
By saying something vague like "big news" it leaves the prophecy open to any interpretation. Standard useless stuff.
No, Karma^2 wouldn't do that to us. Just look at the story he put up to corroborate the claim.... it's right here.... somewhere.... must be..... Maybe they are saving it for *right* before the election.
Yo karma, where is this story? Surely you have a link by now.
The
decisions, allowing officials in Pennsylvania and North Carolina to
accept absentee ballots after Election Day, were welcomed by Democrats.
Justice
Amy Coney Barrett, who joined the court Tuesday and was expected to
cast a deciding vote, did not participate in either case.
I have no information on this, but I'm guessing that Roberts may have asked her to sit out the election cases. He was totally silent on the nomination, but I've got to believe he is worried about the potential loss of integrity under his watch.
I find the Republican lack of ethics embarrassing, but I do worry that the focus on the judiciary is overblown. The one good thing about lifetime appointments is that you can grow and change as others around you argue their perspectives. I think Roberts has been impacted by his fellow judges and an understanding that his court has to stay above the political fray. At least I hope.
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump·3h I’m NOT just running against Joe Biden—I’m running against the left-wing media, the Big Tech giants, and the wretched Washington Swamp. They have nothing but disdain for you and your values—get out and VOTE to #MAGA!
They hate your Values™!
Conservative identity politics.
...versus cancel culture. What a hoot - bombing posts as they come, R_P, regardless ... evidential trolling.
You too, are evidently renting space in his head for free, just like me. Be advised that he is a terrible landlord even if the rent is free. Maintenance is non existent. The roof leaks, the plumbing gets backed up all the time. That and you must use the stairs as the elevator rarely gets out of the basement. I know, I have the Penthouse suite.
Dress warmly and wear boots cuz it gets really, really deep in here when the plumbing backs up and it happens all the time.

In a democratic state, the media are named as the fourth pillar ...as long as they are independent, which would be their intentionally given role in the game of state politics. - This mishap readily displays the flaws of capitalism and their established governances. Even the first three pillars (legislative, executive, and judicative powers) increasingly seem to be coming under influence of capitalist powers. So this is why, someone ought to put their finger in the wounds of our current democracies. I, therefore would readily vote for Mr. Trump, if I was eligible to vote, and not being an observer from behind the fence that I am (so pls don't take me too serious).

Oooh, you changed the goalposts, so now it couldn't possibly apply! lol.
Apparently some opportunistic politicians, running for some office with term limits, do the exact same things as some career politicians tend to do. Who knew?!
He cannot succeed as it will expose these politicians as the worthless crooks they all are and the lie that only they, the politicians,the career professional life long politicians,are capable of actually fixing these things.

There you have it. All right there in that one sentence and the reason for all of the opposition.
He cannot succeed as it will expose the politicians as the worthless crooks they all are and the lie that only they, the career life long politicians, are capable of actually fixing these things. Creating the problems that divide us and then pledge that only they know how to fix the problems they created in the first place and manage them so that they do nothing but line their pockets and their friends pockets who pretend to have the solutions.
Politicians are naturally out of a job once they solve all of the problems they created, so it is in their own best interest to not fix them.
Politics, the only perpetual motion device that actually works as intended.
