Need to fix districting. I don't trust assholes with server farms and exabytes of data to draw districts in any sort of equitable manner.
We need to do that as well, agreed. But having more reps and thus more districts lessens, if ever so slightly, the effectiveness of gerrymandering.

Working the Refs works.
Agreed. Best example I can recall was women's basketball, though I don't recall the specifics. When Jodie was coaching Texas was getting hammered by the refs. Everything seemed to be called against us. Nothing the other team did seemed to matter. It was nuts. Jodie storms onto the court tearing the refs a new one, getting a technical and just unloading on them. The lopsided calls just stopped. All of a sudden. Like magic. There are time when a coach needs to go there.

Someone with good Photoshop skills needs to take a picture of the Notorious RBG and apply the Mack Brown Curse filter for use at this time.

What, no one wants to witness a naked Trump's walk of shame through DC?
Not sure about the shame part.

And the other thing coming out of this debate is that there aren't going to be any more debates. The media pretty uniformly is laying the foundation for canceling the next two debates.
Would that also mean no Pence-Harris debate? I wanna see that one!

He really got his ass bailed out by the Apprentice.
I don't like "reality" TV much. Now I hate it even more. It gave us all DOTUS. Maybe when people claimed TV would ruin America this is what they meant. We were warned. We didn't listen.

Maybe this was some type of excise tax on his law practice, or his wife's property but income tax didn't start until the 1901s.
Though it went away, the first income tax was levied in 1861 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revenue_Act_of_1861).

The orange fucktard was talking about using the “herd mentality” to combat the Covid 19 pandemic in a town hall recently.
The guy is so stupid. The term he was looking for is “ herd immunity”. Good luck with herd immunity trump, we would have to suffer a death toll in the millions to achieve it.
And that's assuming one getting the Coronavirus provides one with immunity ever after. The jury is still out on that one.

I do not understand this take from educated people. Being leary of the messenger RNA vaccines is understandable as it is new, but also the future of our vaccination programs.
Otherwise all the other candidates are your basic dead virus 19th century technology vaccines. Are you allergic to eggs or something? Getting my dead virus flu shot today. No difference.I am not anti-vaxx at all. I've already had my flu shot this year and have gotten every vaccination recommended for people throughout my life. I would not line up to be the first person to try out a brand new vaccine though. Thankfully, there are many others who are willing to be the guinea pig. There are risks with a hasty vaccine rollout as evidenced by the cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome in the 1970's due to the swine flu vaccine developed then.

A coronavirus vaccine (should it be released even sometime in 2021) will be amongst the most quickly developed vaccines in history. I hope it works. I'll get it, hopefully after we get some certainty about side effects.

So IF we vote his ass out, does he just start dumping all the dirt he has on everyone?
I think even Trump knows that failure to comply with expectations has its consequences.

TLDR: fuck term limits for SC Justices.
Lifetime appointment is the one thing that keeps the SC honest.
Look. A good judge is a good judge. They don’t let politics into play. They apply the law. To. The. Facts. I know. Novel concept, right?
I’ve been in front of great “republican” judges and great “democrat“ judges. Then those great judges get washed out in the next blue/red wave for no reason. It sucks and I wish judges didn’t have run on a political ticket.
If there are term limits...the SC is gonna be a grifter factory. “Hey, rule this way and in 10 years and I’ll put you in the board of company X paying Y million a year”. It would be fucking terrible
I get your point and understand there are downsides. But do lifetime appointment SC judges get washed out in the next blue/red wave? They don't. If every President were guaranteed let's say 2 appointments to the bench with the oldest serving members being retired then at least we can maintain some sense that the makeup of the court matches, to some extend, the current will of the people (in an indirect way). Can the same be said now, even remotely? I don't think so. Right now it's a crap shoot (fuck you cancer!) but the GOP has figured out how to game the system better by nominating and getting seated much younger SC judges who will be in place for decades. If the only Dem response is to do the same then we have a race to the bottom to nominate the least qualified, ideologically pure candidates who a given side (Dem or GOP) thinks will toe the line for a few decades to come. I'm not sure how that makes for a better outcome for the country.

Damn, just read the news. Set aside all of the political bullshit for now, I hate that how she had to spend her last days. I'm a huge term limit guy for Congress and every bit as much for the Supreme Court. A 12 year term would have allowed her to serve her country on the bench and then 15 years of life after the court. As it is, she no doubt felt obligated to soldier on when her prognosis was grim. Rather than pack the court, I would prefer a more constant churn of justices.
This. The GOP has caught on to a very important point about lifetime appointments. Get on the bench young and you've effectively packed the court for a couple of generations. But it also means you risk elevating someone with less than complete life experiences. Term limits for the SC should be something looked at.
