They do that deliberately. You see that a lot among Republicans. I assume it’s similar motivations as when they say the US is “a republic, not a democracy”. Apparently it irks them that they have democracy in the name.


I have a job like that, but I also have kids, so…


He hasn’t changed his mind. He’s switched from refusing to release the files to refusing to release the files with extra steps.
At the same time he said he wants to release the files, he also ordered additional investigations. Because of course he wanted to release the files, but unfortunately they’re part of an ongoing investigation.
It’s the tiny face. After all the tiny face memes I don’t even know how his actual face looked.


You’re not well versed in pedophilia lingo? How embarrassing.


It’s okay, the laws will only apply to democrats


There were last minute funny ads at least, but I don’t think they did Cuomo any favors.
Calvinism did a number on this country. “Good things happen to good people” -> “Bad things happen to bad people” -> “If you are poor you probably deserve it, so we shouldn’t help you” -> “It’s okay to give money to billionaires, they wouldn’t be billionaires if they weren’t good people”.
Corollary: “Even though poor people are bad and I’m broke, that doesn’t mean I’m a bad person. I’m just a temporarily inconvenienced millionaire, thus a good person, so it’s okay to help me specifically. But not the poor, they’re bad.”


Until they get older and get a job where they need to be taken seriously. Then they’ll transition to girls again.


Best I can do is a 1-seat majority where 2 are Republicans in disguise.


He is very capable of thought. He’s an intelligent and well educated man who puts on a persona to further his own agenda. He is lacking empathy and morals, not thought.


We’ll probably have worse things on our mind by then…


Even China sometimes has to backtrack when they make decisions which don’t resonate with the people. Even dictators need some semblance of support among the public.


Why does that matter? She’s well over the age limit, and we’ve been getting the oldest president ever quite a few times. The US is all about overcompensating, so I don’t see why we couldn’t swing back to the youngest ever by a small margin. She’s nearly 36 now, so she’ll be 39 when the term starts. I’d certainly be excited about the prospect of having a president who grew up with electricity.


I’m not the guy you’re responding to, but historically it’s been a lot easier to be taken seriously after a stint in the Senate. Hard to say if that’s still the case, we live in weird times, but the Democrat establishment is a lot more bound by tradition than Republicans, and it frequently leads them astray.


Why is it a problem that the right hate her? They’re not voting for her anyway. Modern US elections are won by motivating new people on your own side to vote, not by reaching across the aisle.


What’s better than Starlink in the boonies?


The former VP actually only gets 6 months of protection by default. Beyond that it needs to be actively extended, which Trump didn’t do.
Hope he actually cares about the kid, and isn’t just fighting for custody to hurt the mother.
