Maybe we should just elect Trump president

[Julian, White Poet WARLORD]

Problem is Trump may cash in and leave the table.

Yeah, I have no idea why Trump would show up for the next one.

[Yada]

Ok but I don’t want to have to emigrate!


It’s June…just give Biden some lines before next debate

I think that was a huge part of the problem... his handlers basically gave him answers for every question and he tried so hard to repeat everything verbatim that he completely went off the rails vs. Just using his own voice.

[hutch]

I meant different lines.

[Yada]

I meant different lines.

The killsally thread is over >>>>

6-3 decision. Interesting. I wonder which judges ruled which way.

[hutch]

Shocking

[nkotb]

Actually, i'm a little surprised, given it diminishes the one thing the justices love more than anything...their own god-like power over our lives.  But hey, fair's fair...Joe should officially act to compromise a few of them to a permanent end

[Mobius]

You see, the President has a constitutional duty, among other things, to ‘take care that the laws be faithfully executed’ and within that power is the sacred  and awesome implied absolute right to willfully coerce fraudulent election results and violence in order to retain power and destroy his/her adversaries as he/she sees fit

[nkotb]

LOL or not!

Unbelievably depressing news.

I bet if Biden overthrew the election results the Supreme Court would rule he doesn’t have immunity that very day.

Am a bit shell shocked

Everything going Trump’s way

It’s obscene

I haven’t felt this level of frustration in a while

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died
Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long-stem rose
Everybody knows


Leonard Cohen told you the deal back in ‘88. He kept going and lived a graceful, meaningful, inspiring life. So what would Leonard Cohen do?

Well he sort of retired to a monastery or whatever in Tibet…. Then he comes out and his manager had stolen all his money so he got the band back together and toured for the first time in twenty years…

While I love the song I think the current political climate is of another order of magnitude. AFAIK he wrote that song during the Reagan years….

But in general yeah I get what he is saying… Bob Dylan has a great line too: “…power, greed and corruptible seed seems to be all that there is.” (Blind Willie McTell)

Man if there wasn’t any bad news….

This week is tough but there is a ways to go….


People saying Biden should drop out don’t realize what a mess that would create…it’s just too late for that…

We need to ride it out…
