          Katie Johnson is the pseudonym of the woman who claims to have been raped by Donald Trump at an Epstein party in 1994 when she was 13. She has brought a lawsuit against Trump, I believe, twice, the last time in 2016. She dropped the suit both times because of threats against her life.

        There was a theory that he was intentionally TRYING to lose the election, that the whole thing was a publicity stunt for his (canceled due to him becoming President) then not-quite-upcoming “Trump TV” venture (Which was basically Fox News starring Trump)

        He looks genuinely surprised and upset that he won in the pics showing his reaction, and so did Ivanka.

        I can totally buy that his plan was to win the primary, lose the general, and sell not him as a president, but the fantasy of the White Utopia he’d create if he was President… and the conspiracy theories that Hilary won by cheating…

        But then he fucked up when the plan went horribly right and he became the President for realsies.

      I remember reading that there was a large percentage of Americans that considered the pandemic a “sign from god”. Now I’m no statistician, but I feel like there’s a large overlap between the people who thought that and the people who absolutely would not think it’s a sign negatively related to Trump, and would somehow justify the second one as a warning about those damn deep state liberals.

      Would be pretty hilarious though, if not for the innocent people who would suffer.

      Yes, a very scary crisis under this asshat is what truly scares me (and that’s assuming he doesn’t just go for broke on being a dictator day one). I mean, Covid was bad enough, but had a very, very low fatality rate.

      Something like H5N1 would be a total fustercluck of conspiracy theories, narcissism, bad advice, nonsense and carnage under this utterly incompetent dumbass and his grifting accomplices/hangers-on…Americans would pay the price by the millions under such bad “leadership”.

      Thankfully, at least, adults are aiming to do something about it; I hope they don’t slow down in any way, and instead work on this very diligently in the even that donnie does get into office so that we are prepared for just such an event. Of course, the faux/maga/q brainiacs have spread so much antivaxxer nonsense that their actions would likely have a negative effect even when we do have a vaccine and even if donnie is not in office.

              Zero chance he participates in a debate. Honestly, Biden sounds like rigor mortis is starting to set in too. Pathetic situation we have. Sure would be wild if one of them dropped out in the last few months and let some youngin onto the top of the ticket. That one would definitely win, red or blue. Trump would never cede the power, so the only way Trump gives up is significantly failing health or jail. Hoping Biden does the right thing.

      Maybe not.

      The Biden-Harris ticket is set in stone, and Harris is the sitting VP. If God exercises His Ultimate Veto on Biden, then Harris gets thrust immediately into the job, while also taking over the ticket and trying to pick a VP that can pass ratification in both houses of Congress. And the optics of picking one VP for a few months and a different one in the campaign are poor, so Harris will be saddled not only with a new job and a boring personality, but with a compromise VP that was picked to siphon off three or four Republican votes in the House.

      While if Trump eats one too many hamberders before the convention, Republicans have more options, because he doesn’t have an announced VP yet, and even if he did, that choice isn’t as permanent as the current VP. Since Trump has installed his people in the RNC, though, we shouldn’t expect much of a change. We’ll probably get Don Jr. to run in his place – they wouldn’t even need to change the banners.

      As ridiculous as Junior is, he will have an army of MAGAs who now revere his dad as a saint, while Kamala Harris is kinda meh. I don’t wanna see the result of that.

          Trump is a far bigger Israel supporter, considering he ordered to move the American embassy to Jerusalem when he was president, which is a big no-no to any other US presidents before.

          I agree on the second paragraph but that’s virtually every where on earth. People are sick of the lock downs, which is understandable as there are people having been furloughed and businesses losing money, and not to mention the effect on mental health. Even China, whose people are passive to authoritarian structure, had major protests condemning the zero-COVID policy; which by the way, experts also say does not work as much as the gradient restrictions does not.

          It made sense in the past but no longer, and instead at times goes against the majority will of the people a la Trump and many previous examples

            It never made sense. It was literally created to make sure voters could be overruled in the event the ruling class (party insiders) disagreed with their choice. It was justified to stop “mob rule” also known as the will of we the people.

              It did make sense, but I understand why it might not seem like it to “modern Americans”. In fact, it’s quite an interesting mental challenge of putting yourself in someone else’s shoes.

              We have a similar issue today in the EU. Do we base it one “one country, one vote” or on “one person, one vote”? Both sides of the argument is valid. Why would small countries join if they give up complete independence to the giants? I imagine the situation was very similar when the US was formed.

              I think the flaw in the US system is they failed to forsee that states (or rather, people) would see themselves as one country and not a collection of countries. There should have been a time limit on the discrepancy of voting power.

              Sure, for a hundred years, a state is where your loyalty, your feeling of self, your center is at. But as time moves on, you are less an Ohioian and more of s USian. Similarly, I would hope, you are less of a German and more of an EUian.

              Neither blocks seem to have taken this into consideration but it makes it none the less true. Future generations paying the price for previous. Yada yada…

            I agree with you that it’s outdated and a terrible fit.

            Until we effectively replace it in law, unfortunately, it’s literally not illegitimate.

            I think a big reason why turning Texas Blue is such a priority, once that happens the GOP will be glad to get rid of the electoral college.

          In 1929, Congress passed the Reapportionment Act, loving the House of Representatives at 435. Due to population growth in largely coastal states, and the requirement of at least one Representative per state, the House, which was intended to provide representation proportional to population, instead give a significant amount of power to states with lower population densities, resulting in a tendency towards minority rule in the House. Since the number of Electoral College votes are proportional to a state’s delegation to Congress, this also gives low-population states an outsized influence over the Presidential election, contrary to the intent of the US Constitution.

      another “true, but”, comment: remember, Hillary got more votes than him. By the most in quantity and margin size in history, and still lost.

    Trump is due back in court Thursday morning for a hearing on further violations of his gag order, after Merchan warned that he may have to turn to jail time.

    Noooooo, this is exactly what Trump wants. To become a martyr for a few days in jail so he can fundraise from it.

    We’re going to end up putting this fucker back in office aren’t we?

      Hes not a martyr if he continues to break the law and has to pay consequences. Put him in jail. If people protest that’s within their rights. We can’t let him get away with this.

    In all honesty, the left trying to maintain the illusion that the economy is doing well because of job numbers makes me further question the authenticity of government statistics. The job market is absolutely horrid right now, and any assertions otherwise really set off my BS detector.

      The metrics used to measure the economy are not the same metrics with which average residents measure their quality of life. We live in a world where a strong economy does not equate to quality of life for the people.

      This has been further exacerbated by the increase in wealth in equity. The way we measure the economy is a proxy for the rich getting richer. Everyone else gets fucked in a good economy and fucked harder in a bad economy.

        Mortgage rates and inflation were at lower points, but most likely due to historic job losses and lack of consumer confidence. In January 2021, when, per Trump, “everything was so good,” unemployment was double its current figure and 95,000 Americans lost their lives to COVID-19.

      your anecdotal evidence vs. statistics, not even a fair fight. And even if you’re right, at this point I’d rather suffer in a Mad Max scenario than under another Trump presidency. Kind of like Trump’s “I could shoot someon 5th Ave. and people would still elect me”, just vice versa. My anecdotal evidence is that people will accept any hardship if it means no Trump win. Good thing is they don’t even have to.

        I absolutely do not want to see another Trump presidency. I just don’t like being bald faced lied to about the reality of our current economy.
