  1. Now this is a REALLY good one, Trump had a meeting with a group of people led by Clarence Thomas' wife, and Trump was the sane one. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/26/us/politics/trump-ginni-thomas-meeting.html President Trump met last week with a delegation of hard-right activists led by Ginni Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, listening quietly as members of the group denounced transgender people and women serving in the military, according to three people with direct knowledge of the events. For 60 minutes Mr. Trump sat, saying little but appearing taken aback, the three people said, as the group also accused White House aides of blocking Trump supporters from getting jobs in the administration. During the meeting last Thursday in the Roosevelt Room, which was attended by about a half-dozen White House aides, one woman argued that women should not serve in the military because they had less muscle mass and lung capacity than men did, according to those familiar with the events. At another point, someone said that gay marriage, which the Supreme Court determined in 2015 was the law of the land, was harming the fabric of the United States. And another attendee was dismissive that sexual assault is pervasive in the military. One attendee criticized Republican congressional leaders, saying they should be “tarred and feathered,” a person briefed on the meeting said. Mr. Trump defended the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, and the House minority leader, Kevin McCarthy of California, saying that they had held strong for nearly five weeks of a shutdown, and that it was not clear what else the attendees thought they could be doing.
  2. 21 year old shot and killed his parents who identified him before they died, and suspected of killing 3 others 1 of which was a friend of the suspects. /sigh... https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/26/us/louisiana-shootings/index.html
  3. He's really the only thing I remember of RE2, feeling anxiety about when the fuck he was going to blow through a wall and smash my face in, lol.
  4. There's a much better chance he pulls from Trump more than any dem though, he wreaks of fiscal conservative, and would likely pull Republicans who don't like Trump. Put another way, dems especially younger ones are on the verge of demanding an official headsman position and putting people like him to the block on WH lawn.
  5. Trump definitely super charged young adult turnout, and I think he hastened the boomers fall from power because people who vote for the first time are more likely to continue voting.
  6. 10 years ago there were 20 million less eligible millennial voters and 2 million more boomer voters, with Gen z looking to be even more hostile to the GOP than millennial. We are now at the tipping point where it will become impossible to win with just boomers especially with the younger gens being 2-1 against you and one of them hitting the age where they vote far more regularly.
  7. I'm really wondering where the GOP goes when Trump loses in 2020, they've gone all in on him, and are considering not even allowing challengers, it seems almost like this is their last stand, and i can't imagine it survives in its current form.
  8. Their stuck in thinking the world is like it was 20 years ago, the middle and lower classes never recovered from the recession while the wealthy didn't just recover but surged, to say quality of life is still on the rise is ignorance.
  9. The problem is you seem to think any of these proposals would "destroy" the upper class, lol. What would actually destroy the upper class is inequality getting to a point where this happens.
  10. Watched a guy playing this, enemies weren't loading but were still there and killing him.
  11. So a long term funding bill is going to get passed without wall money, hes going to declare an emergency and lose in the courts, and come out a double loser.
  12. I'm more interested in whether dems have prepared for what comes next as far as the wall goes.
