Pence Says Trump Shouldn’t Be Disqualified Even If CONVICTED — Says ‘That Needs To Be Left To The American People’

Jump

  • I don't really disagree with any of this.

    The system is rigged and entrenched - not open to change. It is bad, but not so bad that enough people will risk changing it.

  • I didn't vote for any of this. No one alive did. The system is rigged and deeply entrenched.

    Americans act like their voting is disenfranchised, because it is - not much of a choice available to be made.

  • Can you expand on what you mean?

  • We need strong constraints for what laws politicians can pass. As a principle, I don't think politicians should get to decide who can run against them or who can vote for them.

    If you like your politicians: I would suggest you should look inwards.

  • I'm fine with reasonable limits on who can run. I don't agree with letting politicians freely decide who can run by passing laws.

  • Fully agree. No one should be prevented from voting or from running for office.

    • What is your all time favourite movie?

    Jump

  • My favorite is The Fifth Element. Love it. Another great movie is The Apartment with Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine

  • I have been using Fastmail for a few years. No complaints. No issues. Entirely unremarkable.

  • Is this guy really the great new hope for the GOP? He seems to be a completely clueless buffoon who lacks any sense of decency. I guess it checks out.

  • These people live in a fantasy land where everything is just rainbows and unicorns. No reason for delay, if anything expedite the disbarment.

  • I’m all for adding more holidays. A voting holiday is an easy win. No need to replace or remove holidays.

    • NASA has reestablished full communications with Voyager 2

    Jump

  • Voyager 2 is one of the coolest achievements of all time. Are there any efforts under way for anything similar with modern tech?

    • Is anyone using NixOS as their daily driver?

    Jump

  • I have used it as a daily driver. My biggest issue was the nix language. If I was to go back, I would invest more time in learning nix.

    • What are your Lemmy comment/post stats?

  • Not sure what my numbers are, but definitely more active here. I make a conscious effort to participate more.

    Your numbers are impressive.

    • Trump tied with Biden despite most voters thinking he committed serious crimes

    Jump

  • Agree.

    We need serious political reform before that is likely to change. A country of 300+ million people with only 2 parties, and a choice between 2 weak old men. It is deeply depressing.

    • Trump was just indicted for trying to steal the 2020 election
