Members JaneAusten Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 One of the most egregious bipartisan actions. AIG of all companies.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 Twitter has announced that it will ban political ads. I wonder what platform Maggie Haberman will use now to shill Trumpism? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 I saw that Ivanka Trump was using a quote from Thomas Jefferson to make her father look like a martyr. She really is deluded. I wasn't surprised that Collin Peterson, who is in a very red Minnesota district, voted against impeachment, but I was surprised a Democrat from New Jersey did. Maybe that district loves Trump, I don't know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) As far as the allegations of sexual impropriety are concerned, I'm sure there is a double standard going on. There's always a double standard when it comes to women who are caught in extramarital affairs versus their male counterparts. OTOH, the naked pictures...? Look, maybe it was "revenge porn." I'm not sophisticated enough to understand what AOC and others are talking about in that respect. I'm just saying, I wish millennials, including Hill, would get it through their [!@#$%^&*] heads that not every moment in an individual's life deserves to be captured forever on a smartphone; and that if you DO engage in potentially embarrassing behavior that can be captured forever on smartphones or what-have-you, then you forfeit the right to claim invasion of privacy (or "revenge porn" or "double standard") when those moments are used against you down the road. It's very simple: if you're about to do something that you KNOW would embarrass your parents or your employers, DON'T DO IT. Or, at the very least, don't take pictures of it; don't tweet about it; and don't ask others to "like" it on IG.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 Is he from the district where Trump's golf club is located? That's the first question that sprung to mind. In any case, NJ did not vote for Trump overall and Trump's golf clubs are still at risk of losing their liquor licenses at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) It's scary to think the bartenders at Trump's golf clubs won't be able to get customers drunk on Trump Vodka and whatever the hell else he self-brands and sells at ridiculous prices.

Members ReddFoxx Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 NJ-2 voted for Trump, but not by a wide percentage and it's hardly as supportive of him as some rural areas are. Plus in redistricting it probably will end up dropping the redder parts. Jeff Van Drew had a reputation of being a moderate Democrat in the New Jersey State Senate and he's trying to duplicate that record in Congress, but voting against an impeachment inquiry when there really is evidence of wrongdoing makes no sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 1, 2019 Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 I just realized that media darling Will Hurd, wept over by the media as the "future of the GOP" (that always ends so well), voted against impeachment. It doesn't matter how many reporters gush and coo - Republicans still always, only look out for the party line, and are happy to see this country burn to the ground. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 1, 2019 Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 Republicans want this country to burn to the ground. Baby Boomers want this country to burn to the ground. Millennials want this country to burn to the ground. It seems like the ONLY people in this country who DON'T want it to burn to the ground are centrist-leaning Democrats who were born between 1965 and 1980. So, of course, nobody else gives a damn what we have to say about anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 1, 2019 Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 There's an extremely, disturbingly cultish clip of AOC that Bernie's campaign is amplifying where she essentially talks about how she had no knowledge or value as a human being until she heard his name. It freaked me the hell out. I'm too old and tired for this direct injecting of cult mentality in our society. This is what people spent years attacking Obama for when he never, ever amplified something along these lines. I am more and more concerned about the Bernie cultists and where they're heading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted November 1, 2019 Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 Cult mentality is never a good thing in politics. There is actually Sanders fan fiction and it's no secret how weird fan fiction of any kind can get at times. Someone even created a coloring book with his head superimposed over a muscular body. The number of young people who seem to really think that he has given their life purpose is really disturbing and he does nothing to discourage it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
