And the national convention hasn’t happened yet. He’s not officially the candidate until appointed at the convention.

Yes, Obama had to ask for it. The moderator wasn’t about to say Romney was a lying sack of shit on their own. That’s my point.
And what we saw in the debate was more than just a stutter. The man started a point about abortion and somehow ended up with an immigrant raping and murdering a woman.
Those all happened afterwards. During the debate nobody has ever been told they lied about a particular thing by a moderator.
I’ve never seen a debate where the moderators did a fact check. You’ll see candidates call each other out sometimes, but moderators don’t actually moderate. Timing answers to be ridiculously short so nothing of substance can be said is also a perennial feature.
And Russia has tons to spare, obviously, Iran is going to continue supplying drones to help them in Ukraine as well. /s
And as for the western countries, the only thing that is keeping those weapons flowing is US pressure. If the US stops, they’ll stop.
Maybe we can use some of the naivité both those Presidents had.
Enlighten me, why is it harder to do the same this time? Is Netanyahu going to get weapons from the Russians?
Yes, both Carter and Reagan picked up the phone, told Israel they wouldn’t get any weapons and they immediately backed down. That’s the leverage the US has over them, and it can be used any time.
If only a few control the LLMs that write the news and run society in general, bad shit will happen even if 99% of the profits went back to the people as UBI or some other distribution method.
Not sure what the solution is, but if AI is to become the new means of production, it can’t be entrusted to a few capitalists.
They’ll never hear about this.
That’s probably the least worst thing any member of the GOP has ever done.
Yeah, it’s ridiculous that they’re claiming anyone would drive in from New Jersey to go to a diner in Manhattan.
The remedy is impeachment, so I’m pretty sure that means 60 senators need to vote to remove her, which isn’t happening anytime soon.
Yep, even if he ends up in prison by some miracle.
Realistically, isn’t that really the point where he actually faces any consequences?
I edited it because it was ambiguous, no need to apologise.
By ‘this one’, I meant the hush money case. I agree that the documents case is the most serious one (and also deliciously ironic given his 2016 criticism of Hillary’s classified emails).
The hush money one is the first one to actually go to trial, so it’s mostly that. The documents case is basically suppressed until they can somehow get rid of this judge, and the other 2 cases are also being held up in places.
The hush money case isn’t likely to put him in prison though, I don’t think there’s any precedent of a politician going to prison for that. And of course there’s going to be appeals that can easily push it until past November.
Yep, ‘he says what we’re all thinking!’.
When he’s lucid, he’s on drugs. When he’s not, he’s sleepy Joe. You can’t win by placating the right. Independents and democrats do have real concerns, and the DNC can ignore them at their own peril.
