Propensity of evidence is literally one of the things that differentiates a civil case from a criminal one.

Look, we have no idea what caused this accident yet, speculation like this is completely off base until then.

No way they repaired it that quickly, if they repaired it at all.

I don’t understand, I have to do something about this matter? Do I work for the State Department and didn’t know it?

The citizens of California pay taxes to the federal government directly as do the rest of us. Short of a public strike of paying income tax to the IRS, which certainly would end with Trump arresting and charging people with tax evasion, not sure how CA can stop remittances to the Federal government

Are you going to deny unanimous consent? Stop voting for any of Trump’s nominees? Stop working on any legislation with the Republicans? Because if you’re not ready to do whatever it takes to stop business in the Senate, your words are worthless.

We are not the Soviet Union, we don’t have military parades celebrating our ruler.

On the other hand, the military is already understaffed, so he’s going to have a hard time instituting martial law in a country of 350 million if a large part of his military is excluded

Do the people who they put out of work get to eat them if they can’t find another job?

So, what’s your point? The South started the war, not Lincoln, they declared war on the Federal Government and attacked it. Should he have not responded and let them go?

No, I don’t, I’m lucky my close family is better than that, my parents had a strong moral compass.

No. What’s your point?

One or two, they’re racists who don’t have the courage to at least be like racists of the old days to come right out and say they want to see segregation return or worse.

Anyway, back to the original question, every confederate State’s Declaration of secession or constitution stated slavery as the foremost concern of the state and the confederacy, so are you suggesting Lee was too naive to know what he was fighting for and Lincoln should have just let them go?

Did Lincoln ever suggest he wanted to stay in power permanently the way Trump does? Really, get a grip dude.

How does he not get away with it at this point? Who is going to stop him? Unless military leaders stand up to him, I don’t see his this ends with him backing down.

I expect the same now. It won’t be pretty.

It will be enforced cohesion; either do what Trump says or you die.
comment in response to

This is much worse, the South just wanted to secede and start their own country, Trump wants to rule the entire country with an iron fist.

Yeah, well it seems the rubicon has been crossed, we’re an autocracy now.

He’s not wrong about that

He’s already denied aid for Arkansas, North Carolina and West Virginia, so I’m not so sure about that

Pol Pot, who I did not support, was right to march those latte sipping shitlibs from Phnom Penh into the fields to do an honest day’s work.

He is doing what he said he’d do during the campaign, she voted for him, and he’s doing it, so why is she upset?

Well, she works for one, so what did you expect?

I have a friend that has glioblastoma, he’s miraculously survived for 5 years, but sooner or later his luck will run out . Thanks to Trump, he’ll probably have no chance.

Reall? Where, exactly, does it say that in the Constitution?

Everyone who says Trump will only get stronger no matter what happens is just engaging in more self fulfilling prophecy. The emperor has no clothes, and the sooner people who know better acknowledge that, the sooner he falls. Also Bill Kristol has made a career of never being right about anything.

There’s a reason why we’ve never had a multi party system: our system is a winner take all system that was originally intended to have no parties; the founders hated them. We don’t have a parliamentary system where you can form a governing coalition between parties.

It was later shown the Corvair turned out to be no more or less dangerous than any other car of that era.
