@doctor-phibes said in GWB weighs in: @copper said in GWB weighs in: @lufins-dad said in GWB weighs in: Why does Trump’s rhetoric work with these people? He told them he loved them. And he stuck with them. Nobody else did. So they are loyal. Simple. Some people will believe fucking anything. What gives me hope about there being a future past the 20th is just how few people here believe this kind of thing. Most people aren't crazy. Most conservatives aren't. The sore losers might try some shit but at least there will be heightened security later in the month and Trump basically has no legitimate backers.

Ha sorry.

@larry said in That light at the end of the tunnel?: I call that "Democrats riding bikes" Republicans would have charged in carrying AR-15's and Confederate Battle Flags, and shown that damn train a thing or two about self-sacrifice!

It's Covid I feel sorry for.

So was Obama right to use his pen and phone?

@mik Was the ‘curb executive power’ thread unfair to somebody?

Our annual expenses went down this year even including paying one semester grad school tuition.

Not only that, but there are some people who don't get it until they file their 2020 taxes, by design. https://www.hrblock.com/tax-center/filing/credits/recovery-rebate-credit/

@jolly said in How much blame does Trump get for the runoff results?: Frum? Bwhahahaha! Say, have you tried a Fisherman's Friend for that craw in your throat?

@loki said in About the emergent GOP theory that the VP has unilateral power to reject state electors: Treason, sedition, end of democracy. The only thing I am curious about is what is the next level of rhetoric? I am not creative enough to know what else can be imagined to scare sheep. It’s sort of implied but you forgot ‘rigged election’.

Mr. Floyd committed suicide. Not that it matters.

@xenon said in President Trumps Calendar: Just different sort of time than previous Presidents. There has never been a president who has shared as much of his time with the world.

Days or hours? Actually, I bet it’s 6-12 months so it doesn’t look TOO deliberate.

@xenon said in GA Senate Runoff Election: It’s a homeless shelter that multiple people use as their residence. Without knowing the law, definitely seems like a grey area. Are you able to vote if you’re homeless? How? Totally ok per the GA election guide. Fortunately the right to vote isn’t forfeited if you fall on hard times.
