The worst part is, they don't actually agree with the criticism, but think he should bow to bad optics.

I have hesitated to say this but Mira Murati strikes me as a total fucking imbecile who thinks everyone ELSE is dumb and treats them like it.

Mike Pence doing the right thing was the last possible failsafe against authoritarianism and the riot that ensued was pure fury at his actions. "Farcical pantomime" my left asshole. A person was shot to death inside the Captiol. Get the fuck out of here.

If they wanted the SC to reverse precedent for them, they probably shouldn't have used the Protestant version. Six Catholics on the Supreme Court might take a dim view of it.

If "wealthy people back republican for president" is newsworthy, that's not actually a good thing for the candidate in question. This should be dog bites man.

I'm not morally against the death penalty, I just don't believe the state is competent to handle the responsibility. There are DEFINITELY people who deserve it.

Given the nature of the crime, the lack of remorse, the contempt of court conviction, and the extremely high chances of recidivism, the judge has a pretty ironclad case to give him 6 months and make him sit out the campaign. He can be up for parole January 19th.

Counterpoint: pension funds are just the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF with way higher fees, plus they're run by morons who get ripped off by grifters and frauds constantly.

Foreign policy does not affect elections. If Biden loses it will because people saw eggs get expensive that one time.

It's pretty funny how much conservatives, and especially certain justices, seem to have convinced themself Trump has a realistic chance of winning the election and are beclowning themselves to keep him on the ticket.

It's difficult to remember that Gorsuch was a Trump appointee and Alito a W pick and not the other way around.
