winning is easy when your whole MO is not believing in anything
it's like kicking down your brother's Lego tower "I won, idiot!" "But what was the game?" |

it actually does seem weird that the secret service has power over him?
like he's right -- he's the fucking president, why can't he order them to take him to the capital? not that that's good, but still |

there's security protocols in place that even he can't override, i guess. he can't make unplanned trips and this was only planned by him and mark meadows as far as we know right now

It doesn't seem at all weird to me that SS guys (LOL, lmao) can override a president's orders if it would put him in mortal danger, like their whole job is keeping him from getting killed
I'm not gonna go get a detailed sense of the timeline because this shit depresses the hell out of me, but I'm guessing the wheel-grabbing occurred at a point where all anyone knew was that people were storming the Capitol? That seems like something the Service folk would reasonably insist on avoiding I guess because nothing is going to happen as a result of this, like it'll be "too polarizing and politicized" or whatever to put Trump or anyone of significance on trial, I'm just fucking sick of hearing more and more horrible shit they did that they're getting away with. I had enough of that for four years and it's blowing my fucking mind that we're, what, like two years into Biden's term and we're still getting news stories about Trump every goddamn day, like I'm going to be forced to see headlines about him every day for the rest of my fucking miserable life Whatever, looking forward to Pelosi reading another poem or bringing the cast of Hamilton back when Trump is reelected. Really looking forward to those emails looking for donations |

I agree that nothing seems to matter to Trump's most ardent supporters. The toddler tantrum stuff doesn't seem to affect their opinion of him. I am still happy they are doing this though. I am learning a lot about this that I didn't know. In the end, I hope they pass some bipartisan laws to streamline the process for finalizing the election (no VP or formal elector presentations) and make it harder for vote litigation and alternative elector slates. Still pessimistic that any of it will matter.

It shows how incompetent Trump can be at times, that he didn't plan this little part of his coup with the people who would have to bring him there. Any good dictator would have brought his personal guard into his inner circle. This is why Putin has a special guard detail that reports directly to him. |

(Barely been paying attention) Well it sounds like he's in jail for the rest of his life now, but is there anything in the rule book that says he can't be president from the slammer?

Don't underestimate his ability to win again. I really hope we can furnish an opponent that will ensure that doesn't happen.

I don't know how serious the indictment for the Stormy Daniels thing is, but the cases about the Raffensperger phone call and the government documents at Mar-A-Lago are going to be a bigger problem for him, I think.

I know it's popular to be "both sides bad; the establishment Dems are just Republicans lite," but I do think Biden has been pretty progressive, as far as American presidents go.
Like, if you're looking for somebody to single-handedly establish Nordic-style social democracy in the United States, no, Biden will not live up to that. If your just comparing U.S. presidents to every other U.S. president and taking into account the Constitutional and practical powers of a president, he's doing pretty well. Largest climate initiative ever seen since, well, ever; trying to cancel student debt; pulling out of Afghanistan (granted, Trump initiated this), stimulus spending, moratoriums on evictions, lifting restrictions on Visas granted to immigrants, ending many of Trumps immigration policies, etc. Yeah, I'm sure he has dementia, but I don't care; presidents are supported by competent staff and members of the executive staff who see to it that their agenda is pursued even if the president himself is a senile geezer. And just to show I'm not special pleading, I never thought the problem with Trump was his possible dementia, either. I don't care if the president is demented. Trump had a bad agenda, appointed bad people, and had poor impulse control/judgement. I thought that focusing on his possible mental illness was focusing on the wrong issue. |
