Algaroth,

GENERALS GTHERED IN THEIR MASSES!

Algaroth,

Isn’t that what taxes should be used for?

Algaroth,

If Daily show is relevant at all this election it will be because of Jon. This episode was him reestablishing himself as the most trusted man in news. Stewart has plenty of time to kill trump. But don’t expect him to be a champion for democrats. He never has been. He has a chance now though.

Algaroth,

Based on everything you just said I’d think you’d be glad to have him back then. Because it’s obvious he takes Trump seriously now. But back in the primaries nobody took any republican candidate seriously, especially the DNC. And to be fair, neither did I. It was a clown show. If Hillary’s campaign hadn’t been so overconfident and tried harder to win over Sanders supporters things would likely be a lot different.

Maybe Stewart would have made a difference if he stayed, because the Daily Show lost a lot of relevance without him, but at the time he had covered a lot of elections and didn’t have it in him to do it again. I just don’t think it’s fair to put any of the blame on Stewart. He fought his entire career for the media to be better than this. Did he fail? Arguably, yes. But he did fight and he should be commended for that, not blamed for the circus that is American politics today.

Algaroth,

Westminster Dog Show is gonna be must see tv.

Algaroth,

They’re downright anti-intellectuals. They’ve been raging against college educations for decades, talking about how college educated people are part of the elite and look down on the rural hard working people of America. They’ve actively cultivated an uneducated demographic to the point where factory workers will vote for the same guy that’s gonna bust up their union and shut down the factory. This creates a cycle of poverty because manual labor is disappearing more and more. Even miners need an engineering degree nowadays. Companies that need highly skilled labor aren’t going to establish themselves in bum fuck nowhere where there is no investment in education. This leads to unemployment, poverty, even less education etc etc. Yet people will keep voting for it. See the Kansas experiment and Kentucky.

Algaroth,

Holy shit! He might actually drain the swamp!

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs says ‘US credibility is at stake’ when asked about Trump’s NATO comments (www.cnn.com)

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. CQ Brown said Monday that “US credibility is at stake” in the wake of comments from former President Donald Trump that he would encourage Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” to NATO partners that don’t meet spending guidelines on defense....

Algaroth,

Trump pulled out of pretty much every deal and treaty Obama had made and started trade wars with US allies. This has made diplomacy significantly harder for the US because now we all know that any deal we make with the US is only good until possibly the next election. This means it will be harder for the US to make any deal with any nation and the US are as reliant on global trade as everyone else. It’s similar to Brexit where the UK leadership basically told all their allies to eat shit. It’s going to be a while until they get any good deals with the EU.

Algaroth,

I am in no way a “Biden stan” but I would like you to answer me honestly. How do you think Trump would handle it?

Algaroth, (edited )

Or do you just get off on people pretending to like you?

Algaroth,

I was civil.

Algaroth,

Fair enough. You’re still a dick.

Algaroth,

Then say that. Because on every post about Biden there is someone complaining about him being complicit in genocide but never mentioning anything other than not voting for him or that Trump is worse. To an outsider that looks a lot like a concerted effort to get people to not vote and that benefits republicans because their base votes no matter what.

Algaroth,

At least you admit it.

Algaroth,

You were so close to not being a massive twat.

Algaroth,

So what is your suggestion then?

Algaroth,

Does Colorado allow abortion at any stage for a healthy fetus or does there need to be medical reasons beyond a certain point? Be honest.

Algaroth,

Off topic a bit but I’ve always thought Bill Pullman is both very recognizable and forgettable at the same time.

Joseph James DeAngelo - Wikipedia (en.m.wikipedia.org)

I remember reading about this guy and getting so creeped out I made sure my windows were locked despite living on the top floor. I remember when he got caught. This is when people started getting into Doe cases for real. How he got caught was by comparing crime scene DNA to a close relative.
