watch the whole video if you really want to know about joe. megyn Kelly is no Trump fan.
its disgusting you would run cover for a guy who took showers to moles this young daughter.
Well good for you for finding it and linking it. She’s being purposefully misleading here. The “being turned on when she wasn’t supposed to be” is not in the part about showering with dad. The “and” in her sentence is doing some pretty heavy lifting. It’s “and in a different part of the diary…”
I can see why you thought what you thought and it’s pretty valid based on how she worded it. She was trying to get that outcome, but those two statements are from separate parts of the diary. Ashley details a lot of sexual stuff in the diary not at all related to her father.
Wait a minute, are you saying that people who want Donald Trump to be within a mile of a government job ALSO believe and/or pedal deceptive BS about his daughter ?
3000 page thread and has one post ever changed anyone's mind about either candidate?
waste of time
In keeping with the spirit of roughly half of the posters, I'm going to personally take credit for having converted no less 22 Trumpers on this thread.

What motivates you to waste your time trying to have a fact based exchange with any Trumper? These posters just come back 5 min later repeating the same exact lies they started with. They are dumbfks, case closed.

You say this as if it's only true for political threads, lolz. If you think you are changing anyone's mind on LRC you need your brain examined.
Oh, this reminds me, I also convinced 37 people on this site that super low-mileage is absolutely the way to go for distance training. Just keep the quality high. Screw the volume. Waste of time.
See 1992.
I will admit that doing the above was WAY, WAY easier than changing dumbfck Trumpers.

let me get this straight People are supposed to be fearful of debating this guy in his current mental state?
Trump: You know, you look at a can. I know cans, I know how long. I know how long it's been there. Some of them have been there for, I would say more than a year

I don't follow Trump nearly closely-enough to know what fraction of the time he's as incoherent as in his worst rally moments? 10, 25, 50, 75% of the time?
If he can be close to his worst at the debates, it could be a good thing for the country.
Then again, the "undecided"/"swing" voters will be watching Elderly Bachelor, or something like that, so perhaps it still won't matter.....

Also, "TDS Tapper" will be MAKING him incoherent, so it won't really be fair.
On this Sunday morning, I just want to remind all of you non-Trumpers of this important fact: Trump isn't bad. Not at all, in fact. The terrible media just makes him LOOK bad. It's REALLY not him. It's the media. It's amazing what they can do. ALMOST "unbelievable" !

Just don't ask for proof.
You did indeed convert me. Joe Biden rocks!!! Biden/Harris 2024!

And yes, I am implying above that the truly "smart Americans" are on the LRC Biden thread. Not doing other silly things like watching stupid TV or taking a run or otherwise enjoying life, or......

The book is probably the wiser choice. Nate Silver was the oracle who had cracked the code with his correct prediction of Obama's re-election. Then 2016 happened. There is no way he's right that Biden will be replaced, although there are many Dems who want a better option.
Who, though? Gavin Newsome? Good luck as he embodies everything Trump supporters cannot stand. I've heard whispers of PA Gov Josh Shapiro. No name recognition, nothing remarkable about his stewardship outside PA to your average voter.
If you're still reading this and care to share...just curious, what are you reading?
Just finished Infinite Jest which has kinda been my white whale for a long time. Can’t say much about it that hasn’t been said by a million other people but I’d say I liked it even though it was pretty tedious at times.
Democrats have until 2028 to figure out a direction to go and I’m not confident they will. Party of complainers.
Looks intersting, but also get the sense of the challenge:
Infinite Jest is a 1996 novel by American writer David Foster Wallace. Categorized as an encyclopedic novel, Infinite Jest is featured in Time magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels published between 1923 and...
One of the most famous commencement speeches in recent years by an excellent if tragic writer and professor; it is an inspiring and rousing endorsement of li...
At least until I read Bret Easton Ellis's "this is 'meh'" take on in his hyper-relevant and underappreciated "White." In which the author, a gay man, gets invited to speak at a GLAAD event, then uninvited due to his controversial viewpoints (later told not to attend a GLAAD event as someone's date due to offensive tweets...really, among the first to be cancelled).
As for the Democratic party...it won't exist in two election cycles. It may have the same name, but you've got way too much tension between the progressive wing, who I hope even Biden-backers can admit have control over the party that outstrips their numbers, and the rapidly vanishing moderates who, when they don't own stock portfolios that are amassing wealth despite the higher cost of living, look at Trump and say, "He may be repulsive, but I'd like cheaper gas and a mortgage I can afford." Not to mention blue-collar workers, Hispanics (many of whom are *Catholic* and pro-life), and black Americans who pay a disproptionate cost of policies that defund the police.
Biden is a perfect exemplar of the Democratic party woes: too old to reach the young, who just want the opportunities their parents had, not enough charisma to charm the no-longer-young (I'll put myself and admit that when it costs $60+ to fuel my car, I don't say, "Eh...Putin's price hike!"), and old enough that the best he can do is say, "Don't worry poor America that lives on Social Security, we're not going to make you any poorer!"
From a broader perspective, the Democratic brand has been seriously wounded since Jimmy Carter. Then you've always had a young and charismatic candidate swoop in and save the day for them (Clinton in 1992, Obama in 2008). See anyone like that now?
I'm gonna keep bloviating a bit longer and say...I kinda do: Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman. He's got something of the Trump ethos in his defiance of norms of attire. He's not afraid to take a stand for Israel, entitled college brats be damned! And he's much more computer-saavy, and therefore able to campaign using meme warfare. Stands up to his own party, to boot. Here, for the sake of comparison is the woman who acts like she's heiress to the throne, missing the point of Fetterman's cutting, humorous, and "somebody had to say it" barb:
I know our most fervent right wingers have never met a conspiracy theory that was not to their liking…
I wonder if this one qualifies
Deutsche Bank loaned Trump $2B, Tom Bowers committed suicide after approving the loans & Justice Kennedy abruptly retired after his son signed off on the loans, making room for Brett Kavanaugh whose large debts mysteriously vanished

Which one do you think could actually win the electoral college?
I’ve probably seen that commencement speech a hundred times. The fish parable is in IJ as well. DFW is kind of a meme at this point and he’s been cancelled posthumously for abusing a girlfriend and not being very progressive in his portrayal of women and black people (which is not really true but whatever).
Fetterman seems like a good choice. He’s a got a good look for it. Very working man. I haven’t seen much of him on stage but I think that’s important. It’s good to have a meme game but it can’t be all you have (Ron DeSantis). I think Pritzker will make a run. Mayor Pete’s been working on his faces.
I’ve always been torn between the progressives and the moderates. The progressives usually hate me, a white guy with a lot of opinions, so I’m driven to the moderates who celebrate lowering the price of one drug by $50. Wow problem solved guys.
Well good for you for finding it and linking it. She’s being purposefully misleading here. The “being turned on when she wasn’t supposed to be” is not in the part about showering with dad. The “and” in her sentence is doing some pretty heavy lifting. It’s “and in a different part of the diary…”
I can see why you thought what you thought and it’s pretty valid based on how she worded it. She was trying to get that outcome, but those two statements are from separate parts of the diary. Ashley details a lot of sexual stuff in the diary not at all related to her father.

I'm shocked. Shocked.
It’s her diary Chief, her words, and confirmed by Ashley herself. hate to break the news to you. obviously Joe has a very hard time getting girls, so he prays on young ones to fill his fantasies. no adult woman would let him sniff their hair. I’ve never even seen video of him trying. only little girls

You've changed my mind about not being able to change minds... except for dumbfks of course

This idiot has absolutely no idea Ashley's diary was real and has no idea what was in it and he thinks he doesn't live in a bubble.

And there is that other one they absolutely love about how Epstein died. The cameras were supposedly dysfunctional but Barr said he reviewed the tapes and there was no foul play.
