Hannity went on a racist rant during his opening remarks. Was so bad the producers actually had to pull the plug on him and the feed went black. After a few minutes of that and a 2 minute commercial break Hannity came back saying he was just kidding.

Pretty sure he thinks the IV and IVF stand for involuntary.

No.

Revenue is irrelevant for this stock. It has zero value if he doesn't get elected. It is the ultimate pay for play scheme if he does get elected. It is the only reason this company exists.

Good historical outline, agreed on most points. The fallacy however is believing the outcome would have been better had Truman lost.

Ever since Reagan, Republicans have pretty systematically robbed form the middle and lower-middle class to give to the rich. That has been the actual wealth transfer that has taken place.

Just another example of how we have deteriorated over time. Empires that were ruled by an emperor, kingdoms that were ruled by a king. Now we have a country, ruled by a ....

I mean, if reduced deficits are your jam, you should indeed vote Democrat. There is pretty decent historical evidence that deficits are lower under Democrats. Surprised somebody who is so into evidence, science and doing research isn't aware of that.....

He'll get some talking to from an ATC supervisor who may or may not file a pilot deviation report with the FAA. You'll never hear about this again.

The FOP is one of the better organized gangs around, and certainly one of the most protected. They run a nice protection scam.

it is almost like most organizations are really a wheel with multiple spokes. Now removing one spoke, any spoke, doesn't collapse the wheel, but it does weaken it.

Wow, what a horrible investment. Totally not what a government should be doing.

Like the VP candidate says, just a fact of life, deal with it. /s

If he did it would be Student's t-test, but I assume you knew that. It should be Gosset's t-test, but a certain beer brewery in Ireland got in the way of that. Anyways it was clearly, or maybe not, a joke.

My testosterone is fine, thank you very much.

Well, turns out a few of the Trump influencers were paid by Russia to spread disinformation to their millions of followers. Looks like it is Tim Pool and Benny Johnson both paid millions to spread the following. Sound familiar? All those frequent right wing talking points we see so often parroted here, nothing more than Russian paid for disinformation.

Irrelevant for some apparently.

It is the dz.com case study on Trump's support being driven by allowing people to validate their often racist and/or misogynist opinions without evidence.

Appreciate the post. I agree with you that the US is at a bit of a tipping point and I agree that a wide and deep divide between teh "haves" and "have nots" can create violent and long term consequences. Where you and I appear to disagree is that all hope is lost and it doesn't matter which party you vote for. The Republicans have a very long history of taking from the middle class and basically "giving" it to the wealthy. The "trickle down economics" introduced by Reagan are solid evidence of that. Under Republicans the middle class, specially the lower middle class, does worse and the already wealthy get significantly wealthier. Under the last Republican candidate the only significant piece of legislation passed did the exact same again, expanded the debt burden disproportionately carried by the "have nots" and lined the pockets of the "haves". Under that candidate the divide grew again. There is nothing to suggest it would be any different if re-elected. Quite frankly it is very clear that under his presidency that divide will grow significantly. The Democrats have a long history of trying to take from the "haves" and provide to the "have nots". They are the only party looking to decrease the divide and try and build a bit more of a harmonious society, which would significantly lower the risk you highlight in your post. Now some or maybe even all of their policies may not be successful or maybe even palatable, but they are trying. Hence, I vehemently disagree that a vote for either party is the same, or that the US is doomed regardless of the outcome of this election. History suggest that under R the risks will grow and could come to fruition and that under D the risks could decrease and might not come to fruition. I don't see how one would vote for anything other than Democrat once you have identified the risks you have. I will stay away from the policies around the control and submission of women espoused by Republicans, however that alone really should be a disqualifier AND a clear indication both sides are NOT the same.

I did indeed exclude my house.

I forget, but weren't you the one complaining about something being vague and just to be specific and state it? So, which country are you drawing a parallel to? What specific stage of that country's history do you believe is equivalent to where the US is now and why?

Except it doesn't. One side: rape felony ban travel for pregnant women other side: none of the above

You are absolutely correct. Not going to edit, just going to let my stupidity live.

I tend to blame the media a bit. They love Trump cause it provides revenue. The circus comes to town and everybody profits. They continue to both sides to make sure it stays a horse race they can profit from. Trump should have been decimated a long time ago, but he just makes so much money for people.

Little preview of America's future as pined for by Republicans:
