that the Republicans will blow it out of proportions and use it to excuse themselves for corruption and treason.

They will do this regardless of what their opponent does.

Plot Twist: You get arrested for using counterfeit money, the date on the money is probably invalid in 1980.

Now I'm genuinely curious if a bank would catch it if you tried using cash from the future. If there wasn't a redesign, do they check serials and stuff if every other security measure is present?

the biggest cost factor that increases when you decide to make something in the US is regulations.

I would love to see a source or some data backing this up.

Can we just...give him Florida and have him fuck off? Is that an option?

Dying Light 2 - Been in the mood for some dumb open world fun recently, and I refuse to buy anything from Ubisoft to fill that void. This seems decent and I liked the first one.

I played through Dead Island 2 with a buddy recently, definitely recommend giving that one a shot if you like Dying Light. Haven't played 2 though.

Who this is actually for:

Money laundering. Just like every single one of these scams. It's all money laundering.

I was resurrected against my will by a guy named Billy.

Thank you! I just needed someone to check that dudes math, very happy they did.

Prosecute this mother fucker. If what he did is this bad, he needs to be in jail. You have to be doing some serious heinous crime to be unqualified for the GOP.

many voters who supported Trump did so primarily because of economic concerns

That doesn't conflict with my statement at all. They don't actually care about what happens to other people, specifically immigrants in this case. What they say completely conflicts with their actions.

Most Americans are perfectly happy to endorse a domestic genocide if they think it will slightly improve their personal lives/wallets. Or they're just totally indifferent, which isn't much better in my opinion.

I think most Americans are liars at this point. Sure they might say they don't want people rounded up into concentration camps, but they sure as fuck will vote for it when no one is looking.

I haven't stocked up on toilet paper (yet?) mostly b/c I don't expect the incoming administration to take this seriously enough to recommend any kind of stay at home guidelines.

I feel obligated to bring up the pleasure that is having a bidet. Added one last time and I will never go back. Totally worth it.

Modern cameras aren't capable of processing the true majesty that is Ned.

Please don't nominate him for anything else. He resigned from Congress. This could be incredibly hilarious.

Edit: and if any Democrat on the ethics committee doesn't leak the report they should all be primaried and removed from their posts.

this doesn't consider the people who did not vote.

If you chose not to vote or vote for 3rd party, you supported Trump.

Well, it's either that or the cruise ship ...

Unless they're planning to somehow go after people who had their loans forgiven already, seems a dead issue.

I can absolutely see them trying to claw back debt that has already been forgiven. Hell, they'll probably try and get people to pay all the waived interest from the pandemic.

A genuine populist revolution will easily be able to pull working class voters from all walks of life

I just don't think this is possible with a 3rd party candidate in our system. You'll never pull GOP voters this way, which means you have to pull a shitload of Democratic voters all in the same direction.

I wholly agree with you the issues with the DNC, but there's a solution: we show up in the primaries. The DNC is corrupt, but they aren't flipping primary votes. We can absolutely elect different people to run the party with enough numbers. And if you can't get enough people to do that with a genuine populist message, how are you ever going to start an entirely new party and convince people to show up?

I'm not telling you "but Trump". I'm telling you the outcome that you said was undesirable IS the desired outcome in this situation. All of Harris' qualifications and platform are wholly irrelevant when comparing her to Trump as to who is the better pick for governance.

Fuck fuck fuckety fuck.

Okay. Then you gotta convince every Democrat and then some to agree to leave the party AND join the same new one in order to beat the GOP in a FPTP system. Or your goal is to dilute the power of the corrupt Democrats instead of eliminating them.

Weeding a single corrupt party is easier than creating an entirely new party while simultaneously competing with two existing corrupt parties in a FPTP system.
