It’s a serious factor. It’s always a serious factor. Having people effectively use voice boosts situational awareness dramatically.

It’s not just the 2200-2499 range. I fell from gold down into silver for pretty much the same reason, and it’s virtually impossible to claw your way out of.

The biggest thing is abandoning electoral reform and turning his back on the promise that the last election would be the last under the current system, and telling people they didn’t want change.

They have been. Most Americans just don’t hear about it because the favourite activity of American media is navel gazing.

So... what you’re saying is that you have no credible sources for your claims. At all. Not. One. Credible. Source. And you expect us to take you seriously?

...In what way was leelze’s comment Breitbartish?

Please look up the amount of actual personal/vacation time taken by each of the last few Presidents, and tell me the results. It’s a matter of public record, and was widely reported from reputable sources. I’m well aware of where the record stands, but I want to hear it from you...

In what way did she ‘cheat’?

The current issues with diverging beliefs has nothing to do with the size of the population (See India, China). It can be traced to a few different factors. For example, the system of weak federalism your government is built around ultimately leads to diverging standards and beliefs largely dependent on state policies…

For someone demanding ‘evidence’ from a non-biased source, you chose to quote a climate change denier quoting a climate change denying foundation. How about you hold yourself to your own standards?

I believe the correct term is now ‘Drumpfster fire’...

Would it help if I told you he grew that for Movember (so points for participating in a cancer awareness/fundraising campaign) and it wasn’t meant to be taken as a serious fashion choice?

But that’s just it, if they’re doing it just for the fun of winning... they’re not winning. The hacks are. They’re just as bad as they’ve always been. And it just ruins the fun for everyone who isn’t cheating.

He did drain the swamp... he just didn’t mention that he was going to replace it with toxic waste.

For what it’s worth, magenetic tape storage is stilled used in large data centres. It still has some advantages over other storage mediums. So ‘data tapes’ aren’t necessarily that retro.

Exactly. Not to mention that Leia claims that they’re a diplomatic ship and there was no reason to be boarded at the beginning of Ep. IV. All of that seems rather silly when they were apparently active beligerants in a huge space battle and were caught while fleeing the scene.

...In what way does ‘likewise’ apply?

The only nitpick I have with the transition between Rogue One and Ep IV is that in Ep IV, Leah and company start out by pleading their innocence and claiming diplomatic immunity...

Ahh, ‘boy’, you really put me in my place. You may want to get over your false sense of superiority. You’re only making yourself look like an ass.

But you didn’t make any points. You made a number of accusations and assertions, none of which are ‘easily verifiable’ as they’re entirely subjective without proof. The burden of which is on you. You’re the one being called out, and you’re trying to deflect.
