It does get a little wacky with the last season finale implying it might be going even further. (Some kind of immortal perhaps.)

Thing is I really doubt we're supposed to even think the Crew team are from poor families and, with one or maybe two exceptions, they appear to be white. (Granted "TV poor" is different than "real people poor" tends to be so it's sometimes hard to tell if a TV character is being written as poor. But if you're…

It does seem kind of like a complicated issue, maybe one where they bit off a bit more than they could chew.

Not a show I watch, but I do feel like "false equivalency" sometimes gets used to mean "You aren't agreeing with the Democratic Party enough." (For whatever reason Republicans, in my experience, rarely use the term "false equivalency.")

"I mean, it's probably just me."

Although it has some pretty funny stuff this one kind of irritated me the more I thought of it.

I doubt it. He faced scandal and failure after the divorce from Ivana and other early 1990s issues.

Why would they need to install them though? Europe has homegrown fascists already or nearly fascist. I find the National Democratic Party of Germany, Golden Dawn of Greece, New Force in Italy, National Revival of Poland, Noua Dreaptă of Romania,
Republican Social Movement in Spain, Jobbik of Hungary, British National…

Well he did say "slowly." I think some people might need a year at least to make a verdict. Plus people tend to rationalize whatever they do and not regret anything ever.

I seem to have read once that Frank Zeidler was a fairly moderate socialist. I used to think as a "bizarro Mad Men" it might be interesting to do a show set with working class people in 1950s, socialist mayor having, Milwaukee.

It was a bit more than that. Counties that shifted to Trump include

"Not employing brevity is one example."

That's very evocative, but it sort of does sound loony toons.

She might have a point though that it could be that with Trump in office Breitbart is redundant. Trump is Breitbart is a sentiment many here could more or less agree with.

Thanks! I thought the Post had averages for the party as a whole, but I didn't see them. What I recall, or think I recall, of that was that the parties are only like 3-4% different and that politicians of both tend to "vote with party" an average of like 88-92% of the time. Each party having a few (Like Jones or…

Properly speaking conservatism isn't so much about creating new things as avoiding bad things. So achievements of Republicans, if they be conservative in the proper sense, will be more what they block than what they pass. Making the question unintentionally biased.

Yeah, I noticed that too when watching it. Even the point that change isn't inevitably good is one I'm certainly going to sympathize with. (Although if improving the water is even going to risk making the place too expensive to live for them than I think something is wrong. I mean I'd like to think a place could be…

Maybe the Trump years could prove a benefit for some kind of contrarian conservative magazine the way "American Conservative", Buchanan's crew, got attention under Bush. Maybe The Weekly Standard itself, as Kristol disliked Trump, could be that. Or Douthat could start a webzine.

In the 113th US Senate there were three Democratic Senators who voted with their Party less than 85% of the time. The number of Republican Senators who voted with their party less than 85% was 8.

I'm thinking this must make sense in context, because on its own this clip is a little hard to follow. Having never seen the show it's interesting to see Anderson as Bowieish but also rather confusing what any of the lines are about.
