Europe has to realize that what happened to Mariupol can happen to every European city.

This was a great conversation, but I still have a tough time buying the rational of Christies support of Trump prior to Jan06 2020

He just says this crap to distract people from Gaetz.

There has to be a money trail here. Nobody can be that ignorant without a reason.

Elon Musk is a doody head.

I suspect he is simply letting the people who want to be his friend that the demand for his friendship is so high that they will need to pony up some extra cash.

“Why am I required to hate someone who just airlifted 250 million to Russia?” What a POS

Donald j Trump is a rapist.

Morality does not require religion, but it seems to me that immorality does require religion. There is a perverse rationale that many heinous people make that "god will forgive", or "this is what god wants". IMO, "love thy neighbor" is the only commandment that matters.

It is so sad that I have seen this article pop up so many times after tragedy that it pops into my head upon hearing of the latest school shooting. We need to look to Finland or Canada for sensible gun control.

The medium has changed. Bloggers, influencers and personalities now deliver the message.

But he won’t.

The hope is that Trump is smart enough to know that a big part of Regans legacy is the collapse of the Berlin Wall. Trump now has an opportunity to build his own international legacy. He won't get the Nobel Peace Prize by simply abandoning Ukraine.

Yep, I'd like to think that he will focus on his legacy and less on personal vendettas, self-serving business deals, nepotism, grifting his supporters for every nickel he can squeeze out of them, and selling America to foreign nationals.
Oh, and the raping. He needs to do less of that too.

"But Democrats have to learn to read the room". So true. But the Democrats also have to learn to influence public opinion. This has become micro segmented, with hundreds of on-line personalities working to influence public opinion. The Democrats have a messaging problem.

The latter. Class war won’t affect him a bit.

We tried this. It sucked. But PT Barnum here knows that he has to have a platform beyond “crazy rich dudes gone wild”. So he gets us talking about DST.

No, they will attempt to “privatize” it. It will be marketed as an attempt to give Americans a choice in investing. In fact, it will just transfer the fund to the hedge fund bros who paid for this election. See GW bush 2004.

IMO, you need to get the county organizations working together.

The inauguration is the quickest way to funnel cash to trump. Union problems no more!

You hit the nail on the head. He wants to be a cartoon villain. It keeps him in the news which translates to influence. And influence translates to money

The guy is a meme of a leader, not a leader. As such, the only thing that matters is expanding his influencer community and the press works for free.

The GOP message was that life sucks and Trump will fix it. 2025-2027 the message will be how good things are. There is no policy behind this, just messaging. “Influencers” are determining our fate as a democracy.

Easy. Just jump on the first amendment bandwagon. Musk is a douche. Make him your douche.

Trump controls the narrative. We are outraged by what he wants to us to be outraged about. He was elected because he got to define the problem and then proclaim “I can fix it”.

Having no moral compass has certain short term benefits, but long term it will make you insane.

I am old school big bulbs. Looking forward to upgrading them to LEDs so I can string more than 3 strands together before blowing a house fuse. Multi-color, to answer you question.

Unfortunately for CNN, the demographic they were chasing was 90% Russian bots.

They will try this again. They will try the same thing in other states. The state and county election boards are the weak link in a functioning democracy. They are run by good meaning folks who are not expecting to be attacked by litigation. Staying in power is easy if you can decide who votes.

To the house members that voted against releasing the report, ethics is a distant lower priority to staying in power. They will retain their majority only by maintaining absolute unity. Defeating that mindset will require their opposition to think the same way.

Who better to pay tribute to the "capo di tutti capi"? Why would he care about qualifications for the job when his only expectation is to line his pockets.

The House did impeach. The Senate did not convict. And they all mostly got re-elected. There is a vacuum in leadership that needs to be filled.

it is, but please direct the discussion towards how these issues are affecting the American people.

The NYT is a joke. They are afraid of alienating a group of people who think their paper has always been trash. Thank god a subscription is only 4 bucks a month. I still think of canceling.

I guess when you create the cesspool of lies and hate that is "x", you can get away with calling someone a traitor without worry of a defamation lawsuit.
