What happens to his voters politically? Do they sour on the political system and stop voting? Will they be up for a new hero? What I don't think will happen is they start voting D. The best I think we can hope for is the 1st: Any Dem hope of recovering to a majority will be in MAGA burnout and a smaller electorate. I hope I live to see the day where this is even a serious question. Quote

Given how lawless those people are anyway, what would be the stopper to their simply carving out certain states, certain cities, certain districts, even certain precincts? Basically, these cuts apply only to states/cities/districts that voted blue, and does not apply to any states/cities/districts that voted red. How hard can decreeing such be? I mean, we're going there anyway, why wait until 2026 to do it? Quote

The guy in El Salvador was from Maryland, that woman who did that op-ed was from Massachusetts, and the judge who got arrested was from Milwaukee. He's also denying funding to Maine because the governor won't apologize. Social Security offices are being closed more in blue areas than red. It's already begun. 1 Quote
CMRivdogs Posted April 28 Posted April 28 (edited) I've been reading the Trump "interview" with Jeffery Goldberg in the Atlantic. This first part tell you all you need to know about the man Quote We found the president—in an Oval Office redecorated in what I would call the Louis XIV Overripe Casino style—in an upbeat and friendly mood. Overripe Louis XIV Casino style. He definitely wants to be a monarch. WE DID NOT ELECT A KING Then there was this, still in the first paragraph.. Quote Trump’s main goal, it seemed, was to convince us that he has placed his presidency in service of the nation and of humanity. (A subsidiary goal was to ask us if we thought he should hang a chandelier in the Oval Office. Edited April 28 by CMRivdogs Quote
Tigerbomb13 Posted April 28 Posted April 28 Who’da thunk that hiring all these people to run agencies that are completely unqualified for them would end up like this? Quote

I've never given it much thought in the past, but I'm thinking that just like it's reactionary conservative gulf oil state money that support the Madrassa that produce radicalized Muslim clerics, there has to be a politically aware US money trail that is supporting the seminaries that produce the pastors that go out and spread this toxic theology because otherwise is hard to imagine that running schools to produce terrible people is profitable on its own.

CMRivdogs Posted April 29 Posted April 29 i really wish our two (there may be more) had the gonads to attempt to defend this policy. They won't, the Regime can't even begin to do so properly. Quote
CMRivdogs Posted April 29 Posted April 29 2017 Trump (and GOP Majority) is now too woke for our current crop of Brownshirt enforcement "officers". Or drunk Military Leaders Quote

CMRivdogs Posted April 29 Posted April 29 Was just thinking. Maybe the new leadership in Canada should send Trump a bill for the bridge they are paying for. Or maybe at least put tolls on the Canadian side Quote

I’m starting to wonder whether they are purposely driving us into a 1933 Germany-style depression so they can declare a constitutional emergency and starting rounding up people en masse on a discretionary basis Quote
