By DY_nasty Go To Post"leia was a better jedi than yoda btw"She was definitely a better hero and bigger reason why the Resistance beat the Empire than Luke was, but we don't get into that.
anyone can be anyone but the jedi hypocrisy and bureaucratic bs fits the party far better than it should

The president “has got to do a better job hiring people,” Brian Kilmeade, a “Fox & Friends” host, said after summarizing the claims in Mr. Bolton’s leaked manuscript. “He’s got to do a better job vetting his staff, to find out if they actually want to work for him or not, or they actually want to leak out information about him.”Even John Bolton isn't Republican enough for Fox News anymore.
“There are a lot of snakes in the swamp,” Dan Bongino, a pro-Trump commentator, chimed in. And on Sunday, the Fox News host Steve Hilton said that Mr. Bolton’s claim “doesn’t change anything of substance.”

This started back when he resigned.
"We don't want a president who will do the right things, we want the president to have a staff full of people completely fine doing the wrong things.

“Like war, impeachment is hell,” Mr. Starr told senators. “Or at least, presidential impeachment is hell.”

Trump to put out a book “if I did it,” but he’ll make the “I” In italics so it’s not plagiarizing OJ’s book

Let me get out ahead of things and say we're not going to make blanket statements over a country's populace.

50% of the country voted for donlad trump
this is like if britain elected boris
shithouse countries
By n8 dogg Go To Post50% of the country voted for donlad trumphelluva tangent to go on from a book
this is like if britain elected boris

and with the way voters are manipulated from all directions now, its really unfair to label people for their leadership given how much enforced accountability is a thing of the past.
either way, no one here wants a thread brought to a level where "egypt is nothing but degenerates" is the baseline so lets not contribute to it getting to that point.

I agree with this, but I do think there is a discussion to be had about the current social and political climate in the US. That title is a slap to the face. The timing is a slap to the face. The fact that his fucking LAWYER eviscerated any privilege issues with the publisher is a GIANT slap to the face. Motherfucker sued the house knowing full well he could testify. My boss insists daily he's innocent and dems don't have a single fact going for them. This whole thing is so pathetic and depressing I've largely just checked the fuck out.
If a majority of us aren't just dumb as fuck, is it apathy? Sports like rooting for the team? Lazy? A combination?

we know where this thread goes when the bar gets low enough
By /sy Go To PostMost countries are full of idiots.
Most people are idiots
By Xpike Go To Posti do agree with most people being idiotsThe bigger problem is those same people being manipulated and turned into a political currency. That's a whole other tangent though...
its why we're in this position in the first place
By Fenderputty Go To PostIf a majority of us aren't just dumb as fuck, is it apathy? Sports like rooting for the team? Lazy? A combination?I mean most of this forum thought Trump was a Russian asset.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostDude if you're gonna sling shit at least recognize 50% of the voters isn't 50% of the country.Like I said....
By Lunatic Go To PostGiven they run the world probably not. Or would that make everyone else worse?You think they run the world because they are smart? Bold idea

That's why I agreed with you. I think the conversation has merit, but not in a one sentence broad stroke.
By Lunatic Go To PostI mean most of this forum thought Trump was a Russian asset.
He is. Just not an active and knowing participant.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostDude if you're gonna sling shit at least recognize 50% of the voters isn't 50% of the country.So he became president even without garnering a majority share of the votes?
Only dumb people would keep around that system innit
"only dumb people would keep around _______"
It doesn't take much to realize this gets really dumb, really fast. Lets not.

I mean … the system prevents us from changing things without a majority of the country and politicians in lock step. But if you were posting in good faith you would know that.

By Perfect Blue Go To PostSo he became president even without garnering a majority share of the votes?He became president for lots of reasons not least of which is a system with vast voter disenfranchisement, gerrymandering, first past the post two party fuck shit, PACs and some states frankly having too many EC votes. And I still didn't cover a ton of shit. None of that just gets cleaned out especially since the people who can take advantage of it are the same people who would have to change it. And for the record in some places it hasn't just been GOP that's been capitalizing on this shit.
Only dumb people would keep around that system innit
In order to change a system that favors the minority party, the system requires you to form a supermajority and get every state in the union to agree to said change.

The only good thing about the Space Force is we might finally get that military budget flowing into space travel technology contracts (if they don't fuck it up like the F-35s)

Actually, our bullshit system allows the minority of the country to gain the electoral majority and rule without an actual mandate, in a way the actual majority cannot effectively battle.

By Xpike Go To Postthe problem is america is essentially a bunch of different countries, it'll never workSounds like the EU.
By Xpike Go To Postthe problem is america is essentially a bunch of different countries, it'll never workThere’s plenty of countries that are federal states that work well, like Canada and Switzerland, for example. In the US however the line between federal and state powers are VERY blurred and that creates conflict between the levels of government, and the states arguably have too much power in certain areas.
