This is so confusing. I thought the DOJ due to the existence of a memo would not charge a sitting president with a crime, period. So why are these republicans wasting tax payer bucks on these investigations?
As far as releasing the tape, just do what they did with the Mueller report and lock it in a tiny room with severely restricted access. The republicans can have a cassette tape of the interview and a record player to listen, but they only get 3 minutes, and no phones or any other recording devices.
I guess if you live in an already decided stronghold state then go vote for whatever you want. Otherwise, don’t let a fantasy get in the way of the only obvious option if you like democracy.
I’d be curious if anyone is doing an accounting of the total take though. I get that his campaign isn’t raising as much money, but how many sneakers did they sell? I’m assuming they sold a few bibles and I’d assume he has his fingers in the 2 billion Kushner took for “investments.”
We need some revolutions in education technology and theory. These conservatives really only learn when they actually touch the hot stove. So something like that alien device from Star Trek that let Picard live an entire alien life. Or that monument to the alien war from Voy that let a bunch of their crew experience the people’s memories.
We have an over emphasis on finance in our system. After off shoring everything for decades we got cheaper goods for a while and with the dollar as the world’s currency we got to export a lot of our inflation. On the shorter time frame we’ve pumped a ton of money into the system. The powers that be could’ve put that money to work building out manufacturing instead the money went into assets and now stocks and houses are really expensive. So basic inflation is going on too much money chasing too few goods and it is because the big inflation has been going on in assets. And the deflation from technology has about run its course, everyone has a smart phone and a flat screen TV.
This is the end result of 40+ years of pushing the tax burden onto the middle class all in a massive transfer of wealth from the public to the private. The elites have captured the political system to benefit themselves and the rest of us just watch as our institutions are slowly dismantled. Meanwhile what are we investing in actually building? Infrastructure… not really. Better social safety nets… hell no. We are investing in making more weapons… because this is what happens when a small group of elites has too much control in a system we the little guys end up fighting their stupid wars.
You aren’t accounting for the increase in cool stuff that makes people want to stick around longer. There’s at least one more Dune movie coming and even a Rebel Moon for the Snyder people. When dueling was popular people were going to church for fun… If you believe in an afterlife and most of your time is spent peasanting about, why not have some fun in a duel?
They still need consumers though right? I mean they can’t automate that away can they? Cause I consume a lot of stuff and it takes a fair amount of effort, also it is like the only thing I am really good at.
There was a brief record scratch moment when the abortion ban stuff happened, but the trumpers I know got right back on the bandwagon and are now talking “white replacement theory.”
