I don't think anyone that ran in 2016 could beat Trump and I don't think Romney could either. That's partially an insult to all of them but not completely. Trump just has a death grip on the party. We've seen it in the polls that have come out since the riots. Republicans don't blame him and don't want him to go. A wide majority still approve of his job.
Not true at all? A new poll, cited earlier here, showed that 18% of Republicans supported the riot and remember about 71% of Republicans strongly support Trump. So it seems about a quarter of his supporters support the riot. So not most but it's not just the fringe. That's a pretty decent chunk of Trump supporters.
They mean accountability for those who committed terrorism. They are not asking Trump voters to apologize. I'm not aware of a single celebrity who wants to hold half of America personally accountable for Trump.
I don't think so. They don't think he lost, they think it was stolen. A vast majority of Republicans still believe that. That's what's going to save Trump. A loser looks like shit but to them Trump a winner who was robbed.
"Crazy" Nancy should get it the same place. (My noise is loud)
That worked both ways if you didn't notice.
I have more empathy for teachers, nurses, tinnitus and hyperacusis sufferers who are forced to work than celebrities loaded up with millions of dollars. The precious celebrities will weather COVID-19 lockdowns and any crisis just fine, that's what happens when you have 10s of millions.
I don't believe it's 75 million anymore. I think you're underestimating how many Republicans and Trump voting Independents are infuriated by what Trump did. Perhaps not more than 5-10%, but I suspect if the election was held again, he probably wouldn't get even 70 million votes.
There absolutely has to be consequences and accountability for his behavior. If he's allowed to get off scot free from the multitude of impeachable offenses he's committed over the past four years, it essentially gives free reign to the next despot that comes along (whether Repub. or Dem.) and is a little more competent than Trump at overthrowing a democracy.
Especially the Republican politicians who gave credence to Trump's absurd claims about a fraudulent election. To this day--at this critical time--they're still not telling their constituents the truth. They're not telling them to "stand down". And they're still trying to gain donations and political power. Just despicable.
Polls show that 45% of them do. Multiply that by the 74 millions votes Trump got, and my back of the napkin calculation tells me that comes to about 37.5 million voters. That's a lot!
That almost gets into some deep philosophical reflection. I agree with you, and believe that everybody is "redeemable". I think we're all on a common spiritual journey. We spend a number of lifetimes here, by and large immersed in a world of love vs. power. The use of both have consequences, with the use of power usually having deeply negative consequences.
The terrorists should be given hyperacusis and have to listen to Trump talk. They would be classically conditioned to properly hate him talking.
You didn't think the 3 hour video I posted of the Georgia Election Hearings was credible?
I agree it's a complicated issue. I'm not sure what would have been better, to ban Trump indefinitely or to ban him until the day after Inauguration Day. I feel like the second option would have been better because by then he has no power and you can let the courts deal with him.
@just1morething -- Quite honestly, I didn't watch it. I guess I need to have a compelling reason to start watching a 3-hour video I know absolutely nothing about. I did just now go to the video, and discovered it was covering testimony in Georgia on voting irregularities. I then noticed it was broadcast by NTD, a media outlet I'd never heard of.
Nope, Giuliani is full of shit and will be disbarred for lying.
The purpose of the gender programs in Pakistan is: general support for human rights, support the development of democracy in a country that has nukes and a bad history, and to undermine Islamic extremism. By extension of all of these would be to weaken monetary support for the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Apparently, even McConnell thinks so. If the following reporting is accurate, this seems to have the potential to be a big deal. -- There are enough votes in the Senate to remove Trump from ...
Did you watch the testimonies at the hearings? Some were non-partisan unbiased people testifying. I thought you liked the nerdy type people lol. In most precincts in Fulton County there was 90% plus votes for Biden. That doesn't seem possible for a layman like myself to believe. Gosh my noise is terrible. Maybe the soup at Olive Garden?
It doesn't pay to get worked up over this. I'm really disgusted my noise is this bad though. 
90% or more were peaceful protesters. The whole thing isn't even sorted out yet. Some say there were bad people from the right and left involved.
