I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Interestingly, I live in a highly Latino community: At least 70% of the high school students have Hispanic surnames. I always assumed that, but for the odd Gadsden flag or "Protected by Smith and Wesson" signs posted by reprobate Anglos, the city was mostly liberal.

But there is an online website called "nextdoor" that I joined, and altho politics is not supposed to be a topic, someone brought up Trump. And son of a gun, the pro-Trump comments and "likes" outnumbered the anti-Trump comments/likes by about 2:1.

Seems like the silent majority has found its voice, at least in the city where I live.

We'll see, T...

Objective reality seems to be quite a bit different than anything your Legacy Media is telling you everyday.

I'm fairly certain you're going to see minorities voting in higher numbers for Trump than any Republican candidate before him.

Losing Could Expose Trump To Prosecution for Any Number of Crimes

Former presidents normally don’t go to jail, but few have committed so many obvious crimes unrelated to their duties in office.

Even if President Donald Trump loses on November 3, it’s hard to imagine that he’ll ever be convicted of any crime, much less serve time in prison.

That’s because, first and foremost, no former U.S. president has ever seen the inside of a cell — and not because all presidents have faithfully followed the law. Presidents accumulate huge favors owed, favors that they cash in, figuratively and literally, when they become former presidents. On the modest end of the spectrum, 20 wealthy friends of Ronald Reagan bought a mansion in Bel-Air, Los Angeles, for him and Nancy to live in when he left office. More significantly, ex-presidents receive political protection, as when Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for anything whatsoever he’d done in office.

Presidents accumulate huge favors owed, favors that they cash in, when they become former presidents.

And beyond anything concrete that a president does for the factions that back him, those factions also strenuously oppose any consequences for their president’s actions for reasons of basic class solidarity. If an ex-president can face consequences, that would suggest that people one step down the power ladder could too. And the people at the top of U.S. society see consequences like Leona Helmsley saw taxes: They’re for the little people.

That said, stranger things than the prosecution of Trump have happened: for instance, Trump being elected president in the first place.

Trump is more vulnerable to prosecution than other presidents because he’s engaged in so many potential nontraditional presidential crimes. Trump has engaged in many comparatively small, shabby, possible criminal activities outside of his presidential duties.

Have you ever been on a jury? Let me guess your answer: Never. When I'm on jury duty, despite all the other people in Texas who deserve to be charged with the same crime but aren't on trial, I don't complain about the defense/prosecution lawyers being biased for/against this particular accused. Those other people just aren't on trial. The Democrats aren't on trial. That's why the article didn't include "a single Democrat on the list of people they were complaining about."

There were 142 people indicted in the last three GOP presidential administrations while there were only 2 under the last three Democrats. The 2 were during Clinton's time, unsurprisingly. Trump hasn't been indicted because he can't, at least while President. But Trump won't be President for Life. Then will come his reckoning in court.

Trump Is Taking Down Names as Republicans Begin Jumping Ship on His ‘Totally Off the Rails’ Campaign

The president believes prominent conservatives will throw him under the bus in the event he loses his bid for re-election.

That sense of paranoia has been fed by news coverage of Republican politicians either openly criticizing his conduct or else trying to distance themselves from a looming possible electoral bloodbath.

According to one of the sources with direct knowledge, the president is already contemplating retribution.

“The president said something to the effect of: If you’re backing away from him now, don’t bother coming back for a favor when he wins,” the other source said. “He made a comment about how there are some people out there who you can only count on when things are going your way.”

Some of the coverage that has been bookmarked for Trump includes recent stories on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who has not only split with the president on coronavirus-related stimulus legislation but made a point of saying he hadn’t been to the White House in weeks because of its cavalier approach to the pandemic.

Trump’s frictions with Republican senators don’t stop there.

Osama is Alive! Trump digs in on conspiracy theory over bin Laden raid

Trump has lost some of the political instincts that made him both unorthodox and effective in 2016. Back then, Trump closed the campaign by largely keeping to script, doing rallies, and posting only mundane tweets. This go-around, he’s embraced wilder conspiracies — such as the Osama bin Laden raid being staged — and put up more Facebook ads attacking Hillary Clinton than going after Biden.

I guess it’s difficult when you’re in the White House, but it’s different than 2016. Trump just has no message discipline. It’s totally off the rails all the time.

YES

I do. I wonder about the stochastic nature of "justice" all of the time. Since I knew someone falsely accused of murder, I got to see how the "justice" system works. The detective had specious evidence against the accused which was contradicted by an alibi provided by his wife and stepchildren plus the fact that the accused wasn't gay (it was a gay murder). But all the police wanted to do was clear their books (they're rated on % cleared), so they didn't bother to look for anyone else. All the prosecutor wanted to do was win their case (they're rated on % of wins) so THEY never admitted exculpatory evidence. The system is set up to railroad the accused. Fortunately, the actual murderer left shred if skin (DNA) at the scene, so when DNA was finally analyzed ...six months later, by which time the accused lost his job bc he couldn't make bail ... the accused was finally let go.

THE REAL MURDERER OTOH WAS NEVER FOUND.

In fact, come to think of it, I know two other people falsely accused by the police (for moving violations), and one person who SHOULD have been in jail (for repeated drunk driving causing accidents ... but he was a rich white judge) but wasn't.

Quote:

Those other people just aren't on trial. The Democrats aren't on trial.
WHY NOT? MAYBE THEY SHOULD BE.

Quote:

There were 142 people indicted in the last three GOP presidential administrations while there were only 2 under the last three Democrats.
I think we have EXTREMELY clear evidence that the DOJ/FBI and media are biased against Republicans, because there is equally clear evidence that (1) the FIB made up shit against Trump and (2) the media was all too happy to spread the lies, while (3) all the institutions were busy covering up real evidence of real crimes by democrats. For example, the whistleblowers who came forward from inside the Clinton Foundation to testify about the crooked bookkeeping and pay-to-play operations, and Biden bragging that he extorted Ukraine to keep his son on the Burisma Board.

So as an aside, when I read about "early release" for "nonviolent" offenders, or "three stikes" laws or other changes to how the convicted are to be sentenced or treated, I always keep in mind that (1) justice is not equal [something YOU should already know] and a fair number of guilty are never even arrested (2) about 1% of the convicted are actually innocent, meanwhile (3) of the remainder, many were convicted on lesser charges than they actually deserved because the DA wanted to win their case.
So people who should have been convicted of (say) first degree murder are convicted of negligent homicide or some such.

I agree with Signy. Justice isn't equal, which means it isn't justice. It's a system of ... something ... but what that is isn't clear.

Though maybe it's a make-work program for people with law degrees; with a back-end of sweetheart deals for private prisons.

Are we in storytelling mode? Then it is time for my story with a moral about Trump:

I flew with competent helicopter pilots, but the very last two I flew with in Vietnam were different. I had a feeling which I couldn't prove was fact in front of a jury that those two were incompetent pilots who might kill three people -- themselves and me. I was wrong about them. They killed only two out of three, leaving me to tell the story. Very similarly, President Trump gives me the feeling that he is supremely incompetent at his job of piloting America. I couldn't prove it in front of a jury but please look into his negotiating strategy for renewing nuclear weapons treaties. If not as bad as an accidental nuclear war, Trump could find something like Covid-19 to incompetently crash into.

Are you claiming Trump did not screw up nuclear negotiations? Sorry I don't have video with sound of him browbeating his negotiators into a stupid position that could cause a nuclear war, but I do have news reports from last Friday:

US rejects Putin’s offer to extend nuclear arms treaty
https://www.ft.com/content/a7fcba55-5697-439f-a335-5e99b367343f

Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, said Trump killed all but one nuclear treaty: “Everything else has either already been destroyed or the Americans are offering to end it.”

Trump made dangerous moves that could start a nuclear war. Doubtful he knows . . .

1kiki, all you need do is google Did Trump cancel nuclear arms treaties? There are 6,000,000 articles about all the arms treaties Trump killed since becoming President. www.google.com/search?q=did+trump+cancel+nuclear+arms+treaties

Unfortunately, Russia's foreign minister is speaking the truth, except he diplomatically doesn't place the blame on Trump, but on generic "Americans". I'm not a diplomat and I place the blame on Trump for cancelling every nuclear arms treaty negotiated by Obama. Trump's hatred of Obama is perfectly crazy. It is also dangerous for America when Trump's crazed hatred leads to the end of treaties.

Cancelling Shokin is of no consequence, but Trump cancelling nuclear arms treaties can end the world, which is crazy for any President to do. Trump is only doing it because he hates Obama. Crazy action by Trump motivated by a crazy reason and the result could be massive death from nuclear war. Vote Trump!

Trump is fighting for his political life campaigning at rallies that are almost the only mass participation events with no social distancing taking place in the US. He demands the locking up of his political rivals. He claims the election, and Thursday's presidential debate, are rigged against him.

Trying to regain ground in the suburbs, he's falsely warning White mothers that Democrats want to transform their residential districts with African refugees. This follows Trump's refusal last week to repudiate the QAnon group and his slanderous claims that Osama bin Laden is alive and Biden and former President Barack Obama had SEAL Team Six murdered. Vote Trump!

Do you care nothing about Trump cancelling all nuclear arms treaties because H-bombs are not falling upon you?

Do you care nothing about climate change because you live in a land with moderate climate? Trump has taken a position exactly opposed to the Democrats.

Once elected, President Donald Trump moved to define climate change as a nonexistent threat. Through executive order, Trump directed federal agencies to abandon any planning for climate change and to abolish previously adopted rules and regulations.

You can get a sense of why Trump says climate change isn't his problem to solve:
www.desmogblog.com/donald-trump#Stance on Climate Change

Lesley Stahl: “Do you still think that climate change is a hoax?”

President Donald Trump: “I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again. I don't think it's a hoax, I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this. I don't wanna give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't wanna lose millions and millions of jobs. I don't wanna be put at a disadvantage.”

Lesley Stahl: “I wish you could go to Greenland, watch these huge chunks of ice just falling into the ocean, raising the sea levels.”

President Donald Trump: “And you don't know whether or not that would have happened with or without man. You don't know.”

Lesley Stahl: “Well, your scientists, your scientists–”

President Donald Trump: “No, we have–”

Lesley Stahl: “At NOAA and NASA–”

President Donald Trump: “We have scientists that disagree with that.”

Lesley Stahl: “You know, I– I was thinking what if he said, 'No, I've seen the hurricane situations, I've changed my mind. There really is climate change.' And I thought, 'Wow, what an impact.'”

President Donald Trump: “Well– I'm not denying.”

Lesley Stahl: “What an impact that would make.”

President Donald Trump: “I'm not denying climate change. But it could very well go back. You know, we're talkin' about over a millions–”

Lesley Stahl: “But that's denying it.”

President Donald Trump: –of years. They say that we had hurricanes that were far worse than what we just had with Michael.”

Lesley Stahl: “Who says that? 'They say'?”

President Donald Trump: “People say. People say that in the–”

Lesley Stahl:” Yeah, but what about the scientists who say it's worse than ever?”

President Donald Trump: “You'd have to show me the scientists because they have a very big political agenda, Lesley.”

Lesley Stahl: “I can't bring them in.”

President Donald Trump: “Look, scientists also have a political agenda.”

Why does Trump talk this way? As recently as 2008 the platform of the Republican Party mentioned climate change 13 times. The GOP acknowledged that the Earth's warming was caused by human activity, and a commitment was made to reducing the nation's long-term use of fossil fuels. By the end of President Barack Obama's first term, however, the GOP completely reversed its position. The 2012 Republican platform mentioned climate change once, in scare quotes, to disparage serious concerns about it. Moreover, the party dismissed any proposals to reduce carbon emissions.

I've never had insomnia. I've always been able to fall asleep in about 2 minutes. My children and grandchildren have twenty years of video showing me falling asleep in the easy chair in front of the TV. Doesn't matter how bright the lights or how loud the noise, if I am reclining I will be sleeping. But all you've got to do is say my name and I'm on my feet.

I don't buy a single thing you've ever said about your life, buddy. This ain't any different.

But since you losing sleep at night is just about the most meaningless thing I can imagine, sure... you don't have insomnia.

My sleeping habits irritate the hell out of some people. The complaint is either "How the hell can you sleep at a time like this?" or else "How can you keep going all day and into the night without rest?" Darn if I know, but it is probably for the same reason I haven't been sick for even one day in the 21st Century.

But there is an online website called "nextdoor" that I joined, and altho politics is not supposed to be a topic, someone brought up Trump. And son of a gun, the pro-Trump comments and "likes" outnumbered the anti-Trump comments/likes by about 2:1.

Seems like the silent majority has found its voice, at least in the city where I live.

Trumptards troll everywhere. Even obscure little fan forums for a show that ended 18 years ago.

That hardly makes them a majority. They just whine more than everyone else combined.

Democrats’ stunning fundraising

Democratic Senate candidate running in the 15 races considered competitive outraised his or her Republican opponent. Combined, they raised more than $370 million, compared with about $150 million for the GOP candidates: an average of $25 million for the Democratic candidates and $10 million for the Republicans.

We already know that almost nobody learns and nobody changes in America after they reach voting age, but if we are lucky maybe a few older Americans will notice that Trump's policies about climate change and nuclear arms treaties are disastrous. Hopefully, those few will change their minds and vote against Republicans. Maybe those few will be enough to force America to avoid predictable disasters. Or maybe not. Depends on how few is few, saying it in the most absurd way I can imagine.

If we can ban nukes, we can ban carbon emissions. Here’s how.

If nations continue to fiddle around with baby steps, watered-down standards, and endless talk while the planet burns, very soon it won’t matter.

"Please leave if you lose" and other pre-electoral trumpgret
You need to be in church instead of tweeting. And please leave if you lose. I voted for you. Fool me once.

well you going to anything today did I waste my vote in 2016 were is the guy I voted for. You hiding under your desk

Sir this worked for you the first time It's not this time. Calling folks names, Corrupt, Crooked, Crazy, Whacked does not make it so As a child I was told story of boy who cried wolf. When wolf really came no one believed him. Voted Biden last Monday.

I voted for you, and now because you are hiding behind your on fears and refuse to on educate yourself. just say you’re sorry to America and I promise you they will vote you for another four years! A weak man would just run, are you Tired yet from running #NeedShoes

You are a corrupt man. You have no respect for the office that you hold. I voted for you in 2016 with faith that you would perform your tasks admirably. I will not repeat that mistake.

You are such a piece of shit, I can’t believe I voted for you in 2016! #LoserTrump #POS #MAGADeadfromCovid #VoteHimOut #VoteOutTheGOP

Thought I would share a little insight Trump, I voted for you in 2016, you have been nothing but a disappointment. In fact, you have shown that the GOP that I grew-up with is no longer the GOP today. All I can say is thanks for showing me that we need a leader not a 2-year-old.

Projecting are we? Sorry Mr Trump you are by far the most corrupt human being I have ever seen. Many of your former employees including John Kelly have said so. I’m so sorry I voted for you. Manafort, Cohen, Stone, Flynn, etc. You lead America in indictments including yourself.

No. I voted for you in 2016. Huge mistake I will not repeat

SUBMERGED BY THE BLUE SLEEPER WAVE I voted for you in 2016. I hoped you would make a difference. You did nothing but lie and manipulate us. Money is good but how many funerals do we need ti have? Terribly disappointed and terrified by our curren t administration.

Oh no! I regret that I voted for... you in 2016. I’ve already cast my ballot for Biden and stand behind it.

I voted for you because you weren't a politician, you promised to drain the swamp.. unfortunately you haven't drained any of it. No indictments, you had your chance.

Trumpgret. It's a thing, and lots of people have it.

And then, on top of that, all of the pro-Trump comments got twice as many likes as the democrat ones. Not surprising, as the democrat ones were all for illegal immigration, obsesssed with RUSSIA!RUSSIA! and full of misspellings. The people posting along those hate-filled lines sounded like uneducated boobs.
