Please tell me you’re just being a troll, and that you’re not actively ignorant enough to suggest with a straight face that the Dems are “fishing” here after all the obvious lies, corruption, and guilty pleas involving Trump’s administration. Cohen’s testimony just highlighted the names that should be at the top of…

If I had a time machine, I’d be tempted to try and fix a couple other atrocities while I was at it.

I was not aware of this, I'll take a look and consider it.

In a day-long sea of “Sadly, I don’t think this testimony will tip the scales much in the overall fate of Trump/his grift...” reactions from me, AOC and some others are making the best use possible of their time and asking terribly important questions.

Respectfully to your last point, I love the enthusiasm, but I think she’s exactly where she needs to be for now: Congress needs more young, progressive members uncorrupted by status quo politics of the last several decades—she’s providing a fantastic example of how to question and combat the evils we’re up against. I…

Please let this be their quote, verbatim.

Um, this guy didn’t get the memo that the KKK is dead, by the way. I think you should be helpful and let him know. ;)

Honest question: is the phrase “Democratic Socialism” an incorrect description of the system in place in Scandinavian nations? But to me, the label is a bit moot--I'd advocate for similar policies and systems to be implemented here, no matter the name.

That’s a more flattering expression in that still than I expected.

Goddamn right. It's not like he can rent a car to leave, or get an apartment somewhere else. I'm furious that someone as exceptionally moronic as this person is in the profession of teaching in any capacity.

Wow, he looks like he’s aged another ten years since he was trotted out for his last defense of bullshit policies in front of TV cameras. And he hasn’t looked young, well—ever.

I’m sure one of the other lawsuits against Trump executing this will make that argument. I’m more concerned with how much Rapey McBeerface feels he owes Trump (or if he’s compromised such that he could be blackmailed over finances or something else) and this falls under his view of the power of the Executive branch.…

Absolutely. I said in another thread, no wonder Giuliani is terrified of Mueller interviewing Trump in person for answers.

They didn’t cut and run when he took office, so I’m having a hard time being sympathetic.

In case this hasn’t already been called out:

The only emergency is that Trump remains in office, and the GOP is rubber-stamping literally every moronic, destructive inkling he spits out of his asshole-mouth.

I fucking hate that you need to spell this out. We are on one of the worst timelines I can imagine.

And climate change!

Sure. We’ll see about that pardon Manafort is aiming to get, considering how it may be a land mine ready to blow up in Trump’s face if he offers it—but then again, the GOP has stuck with him through all of the other blatant evidence of collusion and obstruction of justice, so I feel like we can’t count on a damn thing.
