  1. If there could be a guarantee of Russia leaving all of Ukraine alone in exchange for Ukraine not joining NATO, I could almost see that working.
    Almost is the key word, because the only way to guarantee Ukraine’s safety is if other countries come to Ukraine’s aid if Russia invades again, a security agreement of sorts if you will. In other words, NATO.  Putin creates the need for the very thing he hates.
    To this day, Putin continues to order missiles to be launched at civilian buildings - apartments, restaurants, schools, hospitals. That tells you everything you need to know about his mindset towards Ukraine.  Sure, he says they are Russians by another name, but his actions show otherwise.  Ukrainians are as disposable to Putin as his own troops.
    To be fair, Putin treats Ukranians the same as he treats Russians.

  2. I mean…wouldn’t there need to be spurious reasons listed in constitution to use as disqualification criteria?
    Biden is leading an insurrection by allowing a flood of illegal voters with open border policy.

    That would be largely unopposed in red states like Texas.

  3. Obviously they will rule Trump eligible 
    But I'm super curious how they explain away some of this shit. 
     
    Pandoras box argument. If the disqualify Rs for insurrection, Red states will disqualify Dems from running for any spurious reason.

    The election would then be decided by a handful of states. Same, but different.

  4. I actually like Newsom more than I expected to when I've heard him in interviews and what not, but I do think the liberal elite Californian thing is going to be hard to shake. He'll just get painted as out of touch coming up in private school, dating a celeb, and because of the French Laundry thing during COVID. And to be fair I can see how that strikes a nerve.
    Whitmer, Warnock, and Shapiro stand out to me as the fastest rising stars with the brightest futures because of the states they can mobilize.
    You are probably correct, but Vis a vis all the ghoulish behavior of the GOP it's like a paper cut vs missing multiple limbs with open sores. It's crazy to even warrant discussing the difference, but as you pointed out, those missteps will be discussed 24-7
  5. Disagree with your conclusion.  You did this exercise absolutely right.  Own whatever room you are in, and there's few greater dominance moves than taking an explosive shit while staring someone down.

    LBJ did this regularly.
