  • Arguably he could borrow against his annuity and save on taxes with loans. He could also setup a charity in which he donates a max amount and set up family on the board avoiding other taxes and making write offs as if he is ceo he can buy company property stuff that he can write off too.

  • Personally I think it does as the institutional and mainstream answer is completely unacceptable. To have so many waver or not want to answer is pretty telling/meaningful. IMO

    The actual Emerson college survey has it at 58.7% of the people find the shooters actions as completely unacceptable. True 16.5% find it completely or somewhat acceptable. Lots of neutral and unsure at 15.9% and somewhat unacceptable at 9%.

    BTW this poll isn't perfectly accurate in who they sampled as 37% south,17.7% northeast , 52% women, 18% post doc, 24% college grad,also so many old people versus young. The demographics aren't properly proportional.

    That being said best insights we have polling though may be a way of the past

  • In states that didn't matter. In every swing state but Pennsylvania they had record turnouts. She even beat some of bidens support in those states and still lost. 7 million isn't the story it is she didn't really gain 250k votes in 4 key states and lost.

  • It is more like 250k in 4 states that flipped.

  • Not like the democrats immediately accepted Republicans and framed leftists as the problem with their campaign while moving to the right

  • No you made the claim now it is your burden to source and prove it. Generally and federally not much is happening with weed even on the arrest side as we wait to try to decriminalize it. You can't pardon state crimes.

  • Not like either side is helping us. Kamala, Democrats, and Joe biden ran the last 4 years quietly and campaigned on no change. They lost the election by not convincing 250k voters in 4 states to not vote for them.

    Joe biden pardoning his son is his legacy. Joe said he would be a one term president then tried to run for a second term ruining a primary. Democrats chose Kamala harris and she accepted. This country was founded on old people letting go of power and stepping aside and down. If George Washington wanted to he could have been a king. The old dems are grasping at power and control rather than trusting a populist candidate.

    Joe Biden could be abusing his power and fighting for change from the bully pulpit to affect Americans and make an outcry but instead went back in his word twice and pardoned his son abusing his power for selfish gain.

    Kamala instead of campaigning to fight hatred and cause change went with joy and changing nothing . She even capituatated to right wing talking points moving Democrats to the right. Even though policy wise leftist policy is good and ppopular policy.

    Lastly the democrats ran a Hilary Clinton style campaign being a nerd with stats and defended institutions. Obama won because change Biden won because change.

  • Tbf. 152 million votes counted so far in 2024 and just shy of 160 million voted in 2020. Every swing state had record turn out except Pennsylvania which was close. There was bound to be less votes with people working and mail in ballots not valid to do because covid in some states. Most the votes lost were in states that outcomes were the same in 2020. She lost by 250k people in 4 states. These people flipped or some sat home while more showed up for Trump she lost because of not getting better turn out in those states she even beat Bidens numbers in some of these states.

  • Hmm. Is there any political or judicial will to do anything about Trump or right wing people cheating. We need plausible proof to convict people and if we haven't arrested Trump for election interference from 2020 by now then what is the point of stressing sure some people should try if these is something but nothing is going to come of it.

    The President once elected can still serve even in jail. So yes even if he cheated and we discover something was wrong with election once Kamala conceded Trump won even if she wasn't mathematically eliminated and it completely turned the tide Trump still would be the next president. I don't agree with that but yeah. It is as if we discovered someone cheated to get there diploma or degree years after the fact they already got the paper so even if you rescind it to jobs they would still look like a legitimate candidate

  • There was throwing out and refuse to count mail in ballots with out dates stamped in Pennsylvania. They did have fire bombing of ballot drop off boxes. There was phone calls from Russia. There was a media platform manipulating the news to be right wing.

    While I don't think it wouldn't have changed anything Kamala did lose by just over 250k votes in 4 states.

  • Sex is a basic human need. Having a child isn't. You need to know you are compatible with your partner sexually or it will lead to tons of strife in a relationship. So not having sex unless you are asexual or a version of it isn't an option.

  • More people you have in Congress the higher chance their view will reflect America causing less grid lock on issues 60-70% believe in. It's not like they wouldn't be in the same party. Also you are more likely to replace bad actors since you will be more engaged and any lone wolf wouldn't matter as much

  • No more representation the better. It is easier to vote someone out and be more engaged when there is a representative for every 250k to 500k people. I don't agree one person should be able to gridlock congress though. Key thing is there is laws in the books to unlock more there would have to be a changing of a law to reduce then less people for billionaires to buy off

  • More representation the better I am cool with 250k or 500k. Easier to hold accountable

  • Exactly and then based on that number what we SHOULD do is do proportionality based on that in the most even way possible. But then the issue is states like delaware with almost double Wyoming population would still be unequal since they would still get 1 representative but would be more fair for California. Congress shouldn't have a capped number. Every population of Wyoming size should have one representative in Congress this would give California 68

  • Coup? That is over throwing power and the state I dididn't say that.

    Someone DID break the law, broke the constitution, and is threatening to dissolve the constitution.

    Where as on the other hand they didn't do all that.

    What is this double standard there is one standard and it should be applied. Turns out only one side is doing illegal shit in the presidency. Only one side broke laws. The laws should apply. Trump could serve his presidency from a jail cell but make sure the law is applied. Execution is a one of the penalties that could apply to Treason. Treason is defined in the U.S. Constitution as levying war against the U.S. or giving aid and comfort to its enemies. If the facts are true that Trump gave informants info to Russia i think we have a strong case. I don't believe in execution but what is the point of swearing to protect the constitution if you won't do it.

    For election interference Trump should be in jail for 5 years. For the insurrection 10 years. And can't hold any office For advocating to overthrow the government 20 years.

    Trump did this and many other things. He hasn't seen a jail cell. This isn't prosecuting political enemy it is upholding the constitution and law. A president can govern from jail in the USA. I would argue insurrection disqualified him. Not that I want it but let JD Vance in but not him

  • Uhh. Biden hasn't never had the intention to ruin the constitution. Trump is quoted as saying or putting it in digital writing calls of terminating the constitution of truth social and being a dictator. If you can't trust someone's word as evidence to do something idk what the point of ever listening to anyone about anything.

    Bidens job is to protect the constitution. Anything he did to Trump could be justified.

  • It isn't violence it is threatening violence to someone who is threatening sexual assault. Women are being advocated to be SAed they should advocate defending themselves
