You know you don't have to have an opinion about everything, right...

This one, for example, was definitely one to just chill on the sidelines for. Everyone was better off.

You do you. :P

I don't know who I support at the moment, and I likely won't know for many months. I might, might vote for Sander if he's the nominee, but I don't expect it, and voting for any other Democrat in the race would be an insult to me beliefs (and Bernie's pushing it, as he's still a capitalist).

There are plenty of interesting Green Party candidates running, among them Howie Hawkins and Dario Hunter. Two socialist parties have announced tickets, including Socialist Action (they're running Jeff Mackler again) and the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL, who's running Gloria la Riva).

The party I'm a member of, the SPUSA (Socialist Party USA) hasn't voted on whether or not we're running a presidential campaign, but we generally do, and once that vote's taken, we'll nominate candidates and see if we can maybe get better than Mimi Soltysik (who I think personally is a nice guy, but I had issues with his campaign).

I'd recommend, what with still believing in capitalism, to look into either any of the Democrats running, or a Green Party nominee if they'll be on either your ballot or attain write-in status.

Finnish Prez admonished Trump for his stance on Europe and Trump squirmed and looked uncomfortable, then ranted about nonsense and kept bringing up Schiff. It was hilarious.

Not that I have a clue about whatJason is on about but grief is very difficult to predict, maybe one to contemplate.

It was a huge deal when it happened. There was something clearly off about the guy laughing when thinking he was off camera, then seconds later putting his "game face" on. It was all over youtube, but if you try to search for him laughing in the seconds before the interview, you will never find it. There has been an active hunt to remove all existing videos of him doing this. Now all you get is the interview of him crying, with no tears, and anyone who thinks it's weird to see a guy laughing and then immediately crying with no tears is labeled a scumbag and a conspiracy theorist.

What is up with blackface, and why do race-baiting, white liberal politicians tend to get busted for dressing up like it? :p

sounds like we need context. which it doesn't look like we're gonna get. we don't know what he was feeling or reacting to, with the laughing before the interview. if sandy hook happened, what does it matter how one guy reacted?

We have seen the liberal media silence survivors of school shootings who advocate for a pro-gun stance. Perhaps there is a connection.

maybe so. to what end? did it bring us closer to some kind of legislation or regulation? nearly seven years on, what did it change, in that regard?

Oh this is soooo goddamn embarrassing.

Quit pussyfooting around and just call him a crisis actor. Fuck outta here with "perhaps" and "something is off" and all that other bullshit. Just let the crazy all the way out, that would be 100x more respectable than what you're doing now, which is the most cringe-inducing, limp dick way you could possibly go about it.

As you can see, there is no low that’s low enough for some of these conservatives.

And if anyone even approaches the paint with some “Both sides” silliness, I’m going to Mutombo block that shit all the way out the arena. No.

Agree. As well as mainstream news media.
