  • I look forward to him receiving absolutely zero consequences because why would anything he did ever result in the slightest inconvenience for him?

    I don't believe in god, but Trump makes me think that crossroads demons could be real.

  • What a terribly worded title by the Guardian, kudos on the clarification.

  • I didn't notice covid shifting the needle for 99% of Republicans, even as their relatives died. Even personally being impacted barely registers for a small number of them.

  • Yeah, one sees you later and the other sees you after a while.

    Totally different.

  • I thought it was supposed to be:

    Crocodiles, do not swim here.

  • Didn't know I needed a thesis to have an opinion.

  • No, I think undecided or apathetic voters who are not currently engaged in voting will be motivated by the Dems actually doing something before the election and seeing the GOP obstruct it. More motivated than by Dems saying they will do something in the future, which they constantly fail to do.

    Just fucking do something.

    I speak from experience as an unaffiliated voter who votes against Republicans, but isn't really voting for Dems because I think they will do anything. Just because it is the best chance to make the GOP lose.

  • It is about putting the GOP on the record to motivate the voters by taking some kind of action.

    Try to keep up.

  • It would be great if nature took its course because the legal system never fucking will.

  • Showing the Dems will actually do something would motivate the apathetic people. It isn't about swaying existing voters, it is about increasing the number of people who vote by giving them something to vote for.

  • If if if if if if.

    I don't buy for a second that he will ditch the filibuster if the Dems have control. They could get rid of it right now and they would be no worse off than when the Republicans have the house, senate, and oval office and choose to ditch it to pass their project 2025 bullshit like they neutered it to stack the courts.

    Ditching the filibuster, passing the legislation, and then blaming the house for not following through should dominate the election discussion.

  • 40k: Dawn of War and the expansions are fantastic.

    I couldn't get into DoW II because I couldn't keep track of all the little cool downs spread across units.

  • They don't need the MAGA vote or appeal to Republicans, they need to energize those who are either apathetic or who need to overcome voter suppression hurdles. Patting themselves on the back by continuing their moderate bipartisan wish fulfillment fantasies that has let the Republicans obstruct them for decades isn't going to motivate anyone if it hasn't worked already.

  • The MAGA folks aren't going to be watching the DNC directly, they will be watching edited clips on fox news. So they aren't going to be swayed.

    The undecided folks who might watch aren't going to be swayed, at best they might think the MAGA crowd is starting to be reasonable.

    I don't see how including this does anything except show that the Dems still haven't given up on trying to reach out and connect with the supporters of a coup.

    Worked out great after the civil war, so let's keep trying!

  • Was it really a failure if he is still running for president instead of hanged for treason?

    Seems it was just a little coup, for practice.

  • Cool, cool. Some moron who fell for Trump's obvious lies and happened to catch on eventually is broadcast at the DNC.

    Who is he supposed to be swaying at the DNC? This seems like stupid feel good crap about how "Trump voters can be swayed with logic and reason" when it is obvious this one person does not represent even a tiny portion of the MAGA voting block who are still all in on Trump.
