assurances by house republicans
Fucking idiots. Try learning from experience once in your misbegotten lives.
Look, you have to just trust that eventually Lucy will grow tired of moving the football, itās politics.
Dems are absolute pussies if no fistfights break out upon their return.
Take them to Judge Judy.
Oral contracts are binding.
Good working title should be, āBirth of a Fascist.ā
Are we really going to get this āpocahontasā bullshit for the next 14 months straight? God it must be rough being a Native American in this country as the POTUS tweets out racial slurs against your people and even this thread doesnāt blink an eye.
Yeah heās going to keep screaming Pocahontas until he gets dragged out of office and into the waiting arms of prosecutors. Heās almost certainly going to try to refuse to leave office as well, so be ready for that circus.
Saying racist shit is his brand, remember he kicked off his campaign by calling Mexicans rapists and criminals.
Of course we are. The main topics of mainstream media discussion in a Trump-Warren general will be.
-
Is āPocahontasā racist? Is Trump responsible for the āspontaneousā tomahawk chops that keep happening at his rallies or the fact that his supporters appear to be wearing shirts with fake scalps attached to them?
-
Has Elizabeth Warren sufficiently apologized for falsely claiming Native American heritage in order to get a faculty spot at Harvard? And doesnāt this show the dangers of Affirmative Action and identity politics?
-
Is an egghead professor and lawyer who sometimes charged some clients hundreds of dollars an hour really the right person to lecture real Americans about corruption and wealth inequality?
Now, obviously these are disingenuous framings (or outright lies). And even the worst framings are minor issues when compared to Trump. But this nonsense is 100% going to happen, and Warren better be working on a really good strategy to combat itā¦
Given the fact that Warren has been running a basically flawless campaign so far Iām going to go out on a limb here and trust her to handle this well. Iām sure she has a plan and Iām sure itās sound. If it starts to not work Iām sure sheāll adjust until what sheās doing works.
Elizabeth Warrenās fundamental competence isnāt really in doubt here. I think Biden/Bernie actually are way way more likely to make crucial mistakes that give Trump something to grab onto.
Also Pocahontas is trash compared to ācrooked Hillaryā when describing someone provably crooked. Iām sorry but if you make 9 figures in the 10 years after leaving the presidency youāre crooked af. That shit stuck largely because it was true. Warren legit thought that she was Native American and made a smallish mistake. Since then sheās recovered admirably.
This is the first firing/resignation where I actually feel pretty confident that we canāt possibly get a worse replacement.
I can think of one person. Dick Cheney. Not that it would ever happen.
Rummy tho.
They were pretty much a two-headed ogre.
Wouldnāt it be funny if a ban on vaping becomes the thing that gets young people to the voting booth to help oust Trump in 2020?
Itās wild how freaked out you guys get over the Pocohontas stuff. None of the voters actually cares about that shit, man. It didnāt so much as move the needle during her senate campaign, itās not working now, itās not going to make a difference if she gets the nomination.
Yāall act like this is some death blow, like oh noes Trump called her a racist-ass name, now no one will vote for her.
Like if Biden gets the nom Trump will call him Dementia Joe or whatever and it might actually stick.
But whatabout all their guns?
Agreed. Known knowns and known unknowns almost as good as debating what the meaning of is is.
Yeah if this is the worst Trump come up with it should be a total non factor in the GE
