If the Democrats are smart this time around,

BBBWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Now THAT's funny!!! :D

will have someone they'll be happy to vote for

I hear Hillary's not doing anything these days.. :D

But I noticed that one as it went by

I know.. I am quite noticeable.. :D

The Constitution gives the state legislatures carte blanche as to how to choose electors.

I disagree..

If that were true, a state could enact the requirement that a candidate must provide completely health records.. Or Birth Certificates... Or only be of a certain race... Or gender..

The Constitution sets the requirements for being President.. States cannot amend the Constitution with additional requirements..

President Trump will win another court case on this..

This is fact..

Good to see ya again.. Hope ya stick around..

It's nice to have ANOTHER logical mind around here.. :D

Your "scientific reality" is nothing but hysterical fear-mongering..

Global Warming is the Russia Collusion Delusion of the "science" world..

Facts to support??

HA.. Look who I'm asking for FACTS...

Wow. I did not even make it through a single day without having to update my list. Will Hurd has announced today that he will not seek reelection. Hurd almost lost his seat in the Blue Wave of 2018, and his opponent in 2018 is running again. TX-23 is ripe for the flipping, and that is one huge chunk of Texas.

I'm going to vote against Biden in the primary, although it will be recorded as a vote for whoever is still running by that point, probably Bernie Sanders. And I will vote against Trump in the general, even though it will be recorded as a vote for Biden.

I hear you, but... who knows? It's still early and things change. You might well yet get to vote for someone you can stomach, and I might be the one holding my nose. ;)

If the Democrats are smart this time around, I think they'd be wise to form a "tag team" to take out Trump where the majority of Americans will have someone they'll be happy to vote for that'll send the remainder of the Trump Trash and the Trump/Kushner crime families where they belong.

Michael 101 --

I haven't read most of your EULA-length stream of posts, for much the same reason that no one reads actual EULAs. But I noticed that one as it went by. The Constitution gives the state legislatures carte blanche as to how to choose electors. Precedent having to do with congressional elections doesn't apply.

Very cute - we need to keep reminding Americans of the scientific realities.

Speaking of bozo.

8/1/19: We look forward to continuing our positive dialogue with China on a comprehensive Trade Deal, and feel that the future between our two countries will be a very bright one!

Things are going so well, in fact that ...

8/1/19: U.S. will start, on September 1st, putting a small additional Tariff of 10% on the remaining 300 Billion Dollars of goods and products coming from China into our Country. This does not include the 250 Billion Dollars already Tariffed at 25%..

What a bozo.

Which has NOTHING to do with President Trump, the election or Russians.. :D

It's sad.. It really is sad that your hate has consumed you so much..

The best bit of the Mueller Report will be its impact in 2021 when Trump and his family get indicted.

And she highlighted that “Dem Candidates who attack Obama are wrong and terrible. Obama wasn't perfect, but come on people, next to Trump, he kind of is. This is my outrage of the day.”

There are several problems with this attack on the prosecution. First of all, Roger Stone is not the President of the United States. So it is not clear how any prohibition against investigating the chief executive would apply him. ~ Judge Jackson

Roger Stone... next in a long line of Trump Trash currently residing in or headed to prison unless he swings a deal.

More to come. :)

Candidates should be focusing on retail politicking in Iowa and New Hampshire. Instead, they're wasting money trying to meet arbitrary debate requirements.
https://newrepublic.com/article/154584/democratic-party-culling-field-soon

Same old DNC....

Ahhh yes.. The "tolerance" of the Democrat Party on full display..

Funny how no one condemns these attacks...

The post featured a short clip of a Yang cartoon dancing, surrounded by the logos for the four qualifying polls, from NBC/Wall Street Journal, Quinnipiac University Poll, Fox News, and NBC/SurveyMonkey.

"Oh crap!!!!" Says the DNC!!! We can't have an American of Asian descent in our debates!!!

Shortly after the post, DNC senior advisor Mary Beth Cahill emailed the candidates to inform them only one of the two NBC sponsored polls could be used to qualify, effectively sidelining the Yang Gang for now, The Hill reports.

Cahill wrote “candidates may only count one NBC-sponsored national poll released during the current qualification period,” alleging the reason is “to avoid scenarios in which a single poll sponsor or media outlet is responsible for qualifying a candidate through multiple sets of results in the same geography.”

Same old bigoted and racist DNC... :eyeroll:

And once again, the DNC is putting their thumb on the Primary scales.. The DNC only wants "approved" candidates to participate in the debates..

Apparently, the DNC does not like Americans who are of asian descent to participate..

Yea, I know...

I just find it so hilarious that after all their bloviations and all their hysterical bullshit claims, a federal judge comes along and says:

it would not be criminal for the campaign to then publish those documents, as long as they did not contribute to the hacking itself. Similarly, the judge said, it is not criminal to merely solicit or "welcome" stolen documents.

... and TOTALLY decimates ALL of their hysterical bullshit claims!!!

I dunno about you, but I find that totally, unequivocally and 1000% hilarious!!! :D

I am gonna be laughing about that for at least a week.. :D

Actually, all the air went out of the retards' "collusion delusion" balloon quite some time ago, but of course, the morons are not about to ever admit publically that they were full of shit all along for 3 full yrs. The fact that they've shut up about it is as close as you're ever gonna get to an admission of terminal stupidity on their part.

Come talk to me when yer ready to acknowledge the Democrat AntiFa terrorist threat...

:eyeroll: moron..

There is no defense of Harris withholding evidence..

* At least 2% in four national DNC-approved polls
* At least 130,000 unique donors

Qualifying for Third Debate(s)

* Joe Biden
* Cory Booker
* Pete Buttigieg
* Kamala Harris
* Beto O’Rourke
* Bernie Sanders
* Elizabeth Warren

Meeting the polling but not donor requirement:
* Amy Klobuchar

Meeting the donor but not polling requirement:
* Julián Castro
* Andrew Yang

________________

The fourth debate has the same requirements as the third, but candidates having additional time to qualify might actually mean there are more candidates who qualify.

An FBI document, first reported by Yahoo News, identifies conspiracy theories as potential domestic terrorism threats, specifically identifying QAnon, a group that believes there is a "deep state" working against President Trump, in the memo.

The FBI specifically points to QAnon and Pizzagate, a conspiracy theory that claims Hillary Clinton and other top Democratic figures are running a child sex-trafficking ring beneath a pizza shop in Washington, D.C., as examples of groups whose messages could lead to “violent acts.”

“The FBI assesses these conspiracy theories very likely will emerge, spread, and evolve in the modern information marketplace, occasionally driving both groups and individual extremists to carry out criminal or violent acts,” the document, dated May 30, reads.

What she basically says is that private insurers would be able to offer policies (if they meet standards) but they would be offered to people directly, not through their employers. I think that's an important difference and one I applaud. She wants to decouple healthcare from jobs. I've supported that for a long time. It would free people from having to keep jobs they don't like purely to hang onto insurance and it would free companies from having that expense.

What we'll no doubt soon find out is that a lot of people will somehow think that getting insurance through a job makes that insurance somehow superior to getting the same policy through something like the ACA Exchanges.

I don't think people should have to select "policies" at all but I bow to the fact that a big chunk of the public can't stomach the idea of Single Payer, at least not yet.

Holy shit, Neil!!!

First you praise President Trump and slap down Odumbo over drug prices!!!

Now you are conceding that President Trump deserves chops for the economy!!!!

I mean, I always knew you would turn into a Trump supporter..

I just didn't think it would happen this soon.....

:D

"Welcome to the party, Pal!!!"
-John McClane, DIE HARD

:D

I think he means that consumers have the confidence to keep borrowing (HeLOCs, Credit Cards, Auto Loans, etc.) to keep consumer spending going.

We are in a phase where consumer confidence is high - people feel good about the economy (this is Trump's biggest asset frankly) and so are willing to risk purchasing large ticket items.

However auto sales have slowed considerably, shifts at plants are being cut, and discounting is getting more aggressive.

I'll give ya'all a few to catch up... :D

Don't say I never do anything for ya... :D

Thanks, the streaming link doesn't work, but the transcript does. I actually prefer the transcript - reading takes much less time than listening.

don't feed, amen to that.

Zandy quote. Does "consumers hold tough" mean that consumers will continue to buy the same quantities of consumer goods at higher prices? That seems unlikely to me, I think they'll defer purchase and/or purchase cheaper models. Unless retailers suck it in and accept lower profits to keep sales up. I guess that's the "businesses lose faith" part of the quote.

I'm not sure Trump is paying any attention to reality any more. Most of his waking hours seem devoted to Fox News, rants and golf.

{CRS.. Yer gonna love this.. :D}

But, even if the Russians had provided the hacked documents to the Trump team directly, the judge wrote, it would not be criminal for the campaign to then publish those documents, as long as they did not contribute to the hacking itself. Similarly, the judge said, it is not criminal to merely solicit or "welcome" stolen documents.

PPPPPPPFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTOOOOOOSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hear that????

That's the AIR going out of the Democrats and their entire Russian Collusion case...... :D

Once again..

*I* have facts???

Ya'all have hysterical bullshit... :D

The DNC claimed the defendants illegally compromised their trade secrets contained in some of the stolen documents -- including donor lists and strategies. But, the judge said, any such claim to trade secrecy was lost when the documents became public in the first place, and in any event, the newsworthiness of the matter trumped the trade secrecy issue.

No matter how many times the Democrats try to skin this cat...

It just won't fly... :D

However the judge wrote in his 81-page opinion Tuesday that the DNC's argument was "entirely divorced" from the factual record in the case.

Get that???

"ENTIRELY DIVORCED" from the facts in the case.. :D

How many times do Democrats have to get slapped down because they realize that they are only doing themselves harm.???

Try and keep up!!! :D

Donald J. Trump
?
@realDonaldTrump
....vindication & exoneration from the Russian, WikiLeaks and every other form of HOAX perpetrated by the DNC, Radical Democrats and others. This is really big “stuff” especially coming from a highly respected judge who was appointed by President Clinton. The Witch Hunt Ends!

You almost have to feel SORRY for the Democrats.. They are losing every which way but loose.. :D

A federal judge in frank terms Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) against key members of the Trump campaign and WikiLeaks over hacked DNC documents, saying they "did not participate in any wrongdoing in obtaining the materials in the first place" and therefore bore no legal liability for disseminating the information.

The ruling came as Democrats increasingly have sought to tie the Trump team to illegal activity in Russia, in spite of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's findings that the campaign in fact refused multiple offers by Russians to involve them in hacking and disinformation efforts.

Once again, the courts bitch slap the Dumbocrats all over the place....

:D

And yet, things are really REALLY good.. :D

Yunno, yer prediction incompetence is only matched by your economic incompetence.

You yourself have stated how awesome President Trump has been for your portfolio...

Once again, you get tripped up by yer own bullshit. :D

Judge dismisses DNC hacking lawsuit against Trump team, says claims 'entirely divorced from the facts'
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/dnc-lawsuit-trump-campaign-russia-wikileaks-hacking-dismissed

"Entirely divorced from the facts"

Hay! That describes the entirety of the Democrat Party and almost everyone here...

:D

i/ their economic slowdown has leveled out
ii/ it was probably going to happen anyway
iii/ their major lever over their economy is their internal investment spigot, which they can dial up and down as they need
iv/ Trump is a useful idiot and the trade war is giving them an external enemy who is mouthing off and taking the blame

We can see this in their approach to the latest round of talks - they were getting worried earlier this year, but the mitigation policies they have put in place are working well enough for them to hold out until late next year (a significant date).

Trump is going to have to capitulate (he'll call it an amazing win of course) since Powell isn't playing along and the business cycle (which precedes the customer sentiment cycle) has turned down already.

Mark Zandi (who I once shared a stage with at an event in the NYSE - trumpet blowing alert) paints two outcomes:

"Something has got to change. Either consumers hold tough and cheer up businesses and they resume investing again, or businesses lose faith and cause consumers to pack it in, and we go into recession."

The ball is in Trump's court and the Chinese know it. There are many good reasons to re-evaluate our business relationship with China, but unfortunately we have a moron blundering around who is likely to close the door on a productive outcome.

So all California has done is set up Trump for yet another victory — this time, in court.

Yep.. Another court victory for President Trump...

Dumbocrats just LOVE to lose and lose and lose and lose.. :D

Except that it’s almost surely unconstitutional — as then-Gov. Jerry Brown, a lifelong Democrat, noted when he vetoed a similar bill in 2017: “A qualified candidate’s ability to appear on the ballot is fundamental” to democracy, he noted. Banning candidates is what nations like Russia and Iran do.

Well, Dumbocrats like to be like Russia and Iran.. So it fits... :eyeroll:

California’s pathetic attempt to troll Trump

Why let a little thing like the US Constitution get in the way of a dig at President Trump? That’s the attitude of the Democrats who run the Golden State.

So, Neal.. How do YOU feel about Gillibrand wanting to get rid of coloreds and make the Oval Office whiter??

Paula loves that idea...

You???

Al Fraken?? Was that he guy who quit in disgraced because he was groping women???

You are right - don't feed the troll folks.

The analogy to this blog should be obvious. Our scroll monster fears being ignored. In Gremlin terms, remember, "don't get him wet, don't feed him after midnight, and keep him away from direct sunlight." ;)

You DO realize that just by talking about me, you are proving I am residing in your head..

If I wasn't always on the mark, you could easily ignore me..

The FACT that you can't ignore me proves how factually accurate I am... :D

But since yer here, lemme ask ya..

How do you feel about Gillibrand's first official act is to get rid of coloreds and make the Oval Office whiter...

Do you, as Paula does, like that idea???

Silence Gives Assent.. :D

PWNED!!!

We want a winner more than we want a candidate who can articulate a vision that would actually get anyone to bother showing up on election day.

Who doesn't want a winner? But screw election day, I would wait in a long line on the first day of early voting and cast a ballot for a Q-tip versus the human shit stain currently in office.

Those who value democracy will do likewise.

The lesson we learned from losing with Hillary is that this time we should lose with an old white guy who gropes women and brags about how well he gets along with overt segregationists.

Oh, I totally disagree with your description, but if an old while guy who gropes women and is an overt segregationist isn't to your liking, then I suggest you vote him out of office.

If you can't stomach the Democratic nominee, then might I suggest you cast a vote for Democracy? Just saying. :)

There's a good podcast of Al Franken talking to Howard Fineman about Moscow Mitch. It's pointed out that McConnell's personality is such that he's fine with being hated because he interprets that as fear and respect. He just doesn't want to be ignored.

Oh boy I am gonna have fun with this one all day!!! :D

DSWS!!!!!!!

I have really missed ya!!! Honestly.. These current crop of hysterical Dumbocrats just don't measure up to you..

There are some holdovers from the good old days.. NYPOET and LIZ...

But the rest?? Jeeesh.... :eyeroll:

Biden is the nominee, and Trump has a second term.

Yep.. When yer righ.... factually accurate, yer factually accurate.... :D

Good ta see ya!!! :D

That makes my day.. Thank you...

If Gillibrand win's the Presidency, her first official act as President Of The United States..

Cleaning....

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My gods, you can't make this stuff up!!! :D

It's HILARIOUS....

Forgot - my favorite Kirsten Gillibrand line: the first thing she'd do as potus would be to "clorox the oval office".

You DO realize that, when you use bleach.....

It takes colored thingk and make them WHITER, right???

You DO realize that, right???

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Congrats Paula...

You just applauded a Dumbocrat who has promised to get rid of all the colored things and make it all WHITE!!!

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Yer lucky if you get a few hours at night while I am sleeping.. :D

Still living rent free in yer head, eh Neal?? :D

What you call "stupid" is nothing but the facts... The FACTS that you can't counter.. :D

Yer PWNed, Neal.. :D

If the nominee ISN'T Biden... If the nominee is one of those Infanticide/Free HealthCare For Crimmigrants/Throw Americans Off Their HealthCare/Open Borders morons??

You can bet that Schultz will mount a third Party bid.. Maybe even Bloomberg...

On what PLANET, in what UNIVERSE would ANY American want to vote for a President that wants to eliminate ALL that plus THOUSANDS more???

IT.... WON'T.... HAPPEN.....

Maybe Gillibrand could show us exactly HOW she would do that by cleaning up New York first...

SNAP......

“No. We would work it out,” he responded. “We would make sure it’s eliminated, and no more subsidies for either one of those, any fossil fuel.”

Joe Biden just lost the election...

He is going to eliminate cars, planes, motorcycles anything and everything that requires fossil fuels..

In short, Biden just promised to eliminate 81% of the energy this country needs to survive..

Yea... There won't be ANY American on the planet who will vote for such a plan...

Joe Biden just eliminated himself as a viable Presidential Candidate..

“When you were in a position to make a difference and an impact in these people’s lives, you did not,” Gabbard said. “And worse — in the case of those on death row — innocent people? You actually blocked evidence that would have freed them.”

Oh..... SNAP....

Harris just got bitch-slapped on national TV!!

"Asshole??? I'm not the one who just got butt-fucked on national TV!!"
-John McClane

:D

Instead she tried to belittle her accuser, a combat veteran who served in Iraq, by casting her as a run-of-the-mill politician who gives “fancy speeches” and isn’t familiar with the rigors of serving as a state prosecutor and the heavy decision-making that entails.

:D Looks like Harris is not the end all be all progressive that some here have made her out to be..

"Well, well, well.. Apparently the driven snow has a few tire tracks thru it.."
-Joyce DeWitt, THREES COMPANY

But, Harris checks 2 boxes that are ultimately the most important to Democrats.

She is a woman and she is black...

That's why I am predicting she will be the nominee. SOLELY on the basis of her being a black woman..

All-

With regard to watching or listening or reading the COMPLETE Second Democratic Presidential Debates I might as well be living in North Korea. I don't subscribe to cable TV. I don't think much of CNN. I have suffered from Wolf Blitzer Aversion since the First Gulf War.

Anybody know where I can download a complete podcast of the last 2 debates?

Or a complete transcript of the last 2 debates?

Or a complete video?

This has never happened before. I hope it's an anomaly ... suspect it is another new normal.

The remark, directed toward Sen. Harris, was picked up on a hot mic and, whether intentional or not, it put on display the friendly charm of the former vice president even as some on the left criticized it as patronizing.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2019/08/01/6_takeaways_from_the_democratic_debate_night_2_140906.html

I didn't watch the debate. Past my bed time..

Did Joe Biden sniff her hair??? :D

So much for the myth that Demcorats don't do personal attacks..

:eyeroll:

Ya'all said the SAME thing in 2016....

And yet, it's a bona-fide FACT (at least according to ya'all) that Sanders supporters didn't vote for Hillary and that's why (again, according to ya'all) Trump won..

So, why is it not possible that the same thing that happened in 2016 will happen again in 2020.??

Because you don't wish it to happen..

And ya'all's mentality is that, whatever you wish, is your reality... :eyeroll:

I miss having SERIOUS fact-filled discussions here..

We haven't had but a few (Still trying to watch PULP FICTION, JL) of those in the last 3 years...

Sad, because in the beginning of Weigantia, that was ALL we had...

Ahh, the good old days..

Dressed as she was, I expected Tulsi Gabbard to start belting out Martina McBride's WHERE WOULD YOU BE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3AhjFc8AiE

:D

It boggles the mind... :D

All President Trump needs to do is hold his base (which he can do effortlessly) and then let the Hysterical Left Wingery drive all the Independents and NPAs into the Trump camp...

RESULT: President Trump landslide re-election :D

As for a strategy, he declared, “Let's get out the Democratic base of young people, women, and people of color.” Moore warned Democrats: “The worst thing to do is to moderate, to go to the center, and to think that's how we're going to win. This is how we're going to lose.”

Going to the center is the ONLY way that Democrat MIGHT have a chance..

Going far Left will lose Independents and NPAs, not to mention Trump voters....

On the other hand... Going to the center will lose the progressives...

:D

Poor Joe... :(

In short.. Comey's a hypocrite...

Comey's come-uppance is nigh.... :D

Luckily, President Trump is wise to this game. He was a prominent businessman in New York City throughout Al Sharpton’s heyday. He knows this race-hustling game, and he knows that it never pays to back down to a notorious con man.

Once again, ONLY Black Lives Matter are at the forefront of the race hustling and race extortion racket...

tis sad, tis true. tis true tis sad

The difference isn’t the language. It’s that, just like Sharpton, the Democrats know their marks for a shakedown—or at least they think they do.

Democrats have used the SAME words and phrases to describe Baltimore...

Yet, SOMEHOW, when President Trump uses them, ALL OF THE SUDDEN, it's racist..

I am dead serious when I ask, how can ANYONE who has more than 2 brain cells to rub together buy into this lame and obvious bullshit??

{chirrrrrpppppppp} {{cccchhhhiiiiirrrrrpppppp}}

Yea.. That's what I figgered...

None of the people slamming the President are actually looking for “justice” or are genuinely concerned about racism. They’re just looking to score political points.

Exactly... No one with more than 2 brain cells together honestly believes that President Trump's factual statements about Baltimore are racist...

It’s Sharpton’s shameless participation, however, that really pulls the curtain down on the whole farce. As the president aptly pointed out Monday morning, Sharpton basically pioneered this race-hustle game.

Yep... Sharpton is a master of the Racist Con...

The truth behind President Trump’s recent tweets about Baltimore became crystal clear the moment Al Sharpton got involved and the media echoed “racism.” It’s all just another race-hustling con game from the masters of exploiting fake grievances.

Yep.. The scumbags who scream RACIST!! the loudest and most often are the real racists...

And, if those people hadn't committed the crime, they WOULDN'T be in prison for life for drug offenses..

Which is bullshit..

NO ONE gets sent to prison for life SOLELY for drug offenses....

It's usually what went along with those drug offenses.. Murder, rape, robbery, etc etc..

It's as simple now as it was back then..

If you don't want to do the time, don't do the crime..

DUH.....

And, once again, I am forced to explain to Gillibrand about FACTS and reality..

Martin wasn't shot because of the color of his skin. He was shot because he attacked and tried to kill a fellow human being..

He was killed because he brought his fists to a gun fight...

And this world is a better place without Trayvon Martin in it. Who knows how many lives George Zimmerman saved that night...

The people who always point to the color of one's skin are the real racists here..

Yep, yep, yep..

And yet, people here STILL think that throwing all Americans off their health plans will win them the election!!!

It's crazy!!!

In 2020, the issue of health care is tearing the party apart and has emerged as the central animating issue dividing centrist Democrats from liberal progressives.

Whatta difference 2 years make, eh??

In 2018 Democrats ran on the platform of protecting Americans' health care plans..

In 2020 Democrats are running on the platform of throwing all Americans OFF their health care plans!!

hehehehehehehehehehehehe

You can't make this stuff up!! :D

“The people who suffered under your reign as prosecutor, you owe them an apology,” Gabbard said.

Oh.. SNAP!!!!

Harris fired back, accusing her rivals of using “Republican talking points,” but the sustained attacks from Biden and Bennet were effective and kept her on the defensive.

Harris was like David Hedison in THE FLY..

"Heeeellllpppp meee!! HEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPP MEEEE!!!"

:D hehehehe

That’s a sign that the Democratic primary is about to get a lot nastier with 10 more debates and months to go before votes are cast.

Oh.. Not to worry..

"We are able to have differing opinions on how we best solve problems without having to resort to name calling and insults."

:D

Again, the McDonalds slogan comes to mind.

"I'm lovin' it!!"

:D

Allow me to paraphrase Mick Jagger...

You can't always get what ya want...
You can't always get what ya want...
You can't always get what ya want...
But if you try real hard, you just might find..
You get what {the country} needs....

And a Democrat Party in the shambles of a civil war is exactly what this country needs...

"The person that's enjoying this debate most right now is Donald Trump, as we pit Democrats against each,” Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) said amid an extended and nasty fight between the candidates over their health care plans.

“Fact check: True,” Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh responded over Twitter.

Hehehehehehehehe

Point to Trump... :D
