I feel like some people need a reminder that BHM views 1/6 and Hillary criticizing Trump for soliciting and accepting Russian election interference as the same. I really don't know why anyone would actually engage with that.

I certainly do not. 1/6 was an abomination and I would not have minded if every person who stormed the capitol was shot. What I said was Trump was not the first modern nominee to claim an election was stolen.

Any of them other than Trump keep lying about it more than four years after the fact?

I can't fathom a person calling Jan 6th an abomination then looking themselves in the mirror after voting Trump for a 3rd time. Unless they were fully committed to being a piece a shit.

It's simple, crusher is voting with his wallet. He'll sell way more guns when society breaks down and everyone is more desperate

Are you capable of expanding on any of your bullshit? Or are we just too mean to engage here?

[safe sex 11767]

Imagine thinking that literally anyone in the world has ever lied in any way close to the amount of lies that Donald Trump has told about the 2020 election, J6, his own felonies, and every other aspect of his disgusting life.

I have been to Paducah so this hits close. Did you know they have the World Quilt Museum or something like that? Oh, and an old ass reactor.

Been to Paducah? 

Pshaw, I lived in a tiny town about 20 miles away for a couple years.  Paducah and Murray, KY were the big cities for me.

I figured doctors would be leaving states that are embracing christofascism. Appears to be the case.

Too many screenshots so here’s the article

Heard that on NPR a few months ago... OB doctors and nurses are leaving states with strict abortion bans.

I'd be interested in tracking the life expectancy between those living in red and blue states starting from now. I wager the people living in blue states live longer.

Maybe she does. But the point is she has a long history of hostility toward gun rights, as did Joe Biden. That's all I'm saying.

What was laughable was any belief that the justice system would produce final convictions in less than four years.  Actually the opposite of your "laughable take." ....

Still, more than any other institution we have, especially those adjacent politics, the justice system is fact-based .....

But the proximate cause of the failure to hold Trump accountable was the electorate, not the justice system. 

Dude, I know you are a well-meaning guy. We are on the same team.

About Trump's prosecution:

-- I never stated Trump would be prosecuted and convicted in four years, I only said it should have happened. But it was increasingly obvious it was never going to happen. So my "laughable" still stands regarding the slow moving Wheels of Justice.

I agree, the electorate failed. At least enough for Trump to win ... and stave off conviction and possible jail time.

But Team USA and its justice system loves to protect its presidents from "the facts" of its crimes, including obvious war crimes with massive empirical evidence. Ex: Kissinger, W, Rumsfeld, etc. The record is clear: Presidents fare all too well with their crimes (except for Nixon).

About the "Fact-Based" Justice System:

I agree that the justice system is mostly "fact based" ... but not for presidential crimes and no longer for religious-based laws. The "fact-based" justice system will be getting weaker and erode with the newly empowered onslaught of religion and unreason.

I know you are not defending any Court opinion. But fact-based rulings are under attack, not only with Trump, but others of equal or more importance.

So exactly what were the biological and scientific "facts" in Alito's opinion overturning Roe or any of the state abortion bans? None.

-- Alito literally cited BS medieval texts ... packaged as a profound scholarly reading of the legal history and precedent (lulz) ... to justify shoving the Bible down the throats of women seeking reproductive care. There are zero scientific facts supporting abortion bans. ZERO. And women are dying because of it. That's the 100% empirical fact. 

-- It doesn't fucking matter what alleged "facts" were supposedly in the "precedents" cited by Alito. He was just making it up to justify imposing fact-free religious beliefs on women. He literally went back to PRE-scientific era to justify an UN-scientific opinion. 17th Century medievalism over 21st Century science. Going backward, not by decades, but centuries!

As we have long known, "fact-based" America is under attack. W's regime embraced parts of it. And it has grown exponentially.

About the new ruling ideology of America:

The 2016 and 2024 elections showed the new ruling ideology of America is ANTI-fact, ILLogic, UNreason, and UNscientific. Nothing will make sense or needs to even make sense. Nothing. Court rulings, tariffs, health departments, environmental rulings, Cabinet picks, foreign policy decissions, convictions of Trump for which he faces zero penalty, etc. The list is endless. It is pointless to reason it out. Chaos will rule the day.

-- Looking for fact-based logic, reason, and science in UNreason America is a complete fools errand. 

As with the Dobbs decIsion and lack of Trump prosecution, I predict this philosophy will continue to spread throughout America and the Court system from the Supreme Court on down through all the MAGA judges.

-- For example, the Establishment Clause which separates Church and State .... so clearly stated in the first line of the First Amendment ... will come under increasing attack in Unreason America and its Christian Evangelicals. And it will fall. Bit by bit, or in one fell swoop. 

TL/DR. Bottom line: Chaos will be the only rule.

Yeah. You and your conspiracy of dunces should’ve done your own research.

 

I have this conversation too much, and where they usually end up is similar to when I explained why the 2001, 2003 & 2017 tax cuts could not ever pay for themselves: in general they shrug it off and continue to vote for their team. 
only this, unlike the deficits, will touch them personally. 
That said- the national dynamic looks a lot like Texas now, and I suspect the GOP will trick Democrats into standing in the line of fire when the voters are looking for someone to blame.

I gotta hand it to those Republicans.

Never in a million years would I have thought you could throw America into reverse and outlaw women voting, equal rights for minorities, porn, and renewable energy while mandating repatriation and deportation and child labor. 

These guys think big, and get it done!
