There were millions of words written about the specific reasons Clinton was a bad candidate. Didn’t you just give props to Jezebel for calling out Splinter constantly writing about them?

Jezebel is good because they called out Splinter writers for warning us about problems with the candidate who ended up losing to trump? It’s kind of an unwinnable situation then. If Clinton had won then the Splinter writers were idiots who don’t know shit and were completely wrong about Clinton’s viability as a…

It’s entirely Clinton’s fault that her victory required a larger number of her primary opponent’s supporters than past elections to vote for her in order to win. Or did her campaign team develop a strategy which could only work if 100% of her primary opponent’s supporters voted for her? Something which never happens.…

Totally. Since Hillary Clinton has shown she had the most to lose by the fact she’s currently housed at the Florence supermax we can’t blame her at all for running an awful campaign and losing to an idiot who has done horrible things. I mean, it’s not like Hillary Clinton is a rich celebrity who lives and works in a…

Maybe. Or maybe it was the failure of African-American voters. Or union voters. Or Hispanic voters. Or lower income voters. It’s strange how such an awesome candidate could have so many different groups at which they could point the finger for their inability to beat the biggest idiot who has ever run for President on…

So the PUMAs actions don’t absolve people who did the same thing they did (in much smaller numbers than the PUMAs) because the PUMAs favorite candidate was so much worse than the candidate the PUMAs “betrayed”?

He’s not choosing to slack off or not prepare for debates. He’s physically incapable of doing any better. Biden is clearly showing signs of impairment to his short term memory and his ability to articulate his thoughts. These aren’t “gaffes”. They’re symptoms of a medical problem. Considering what he’s been like in…

If feels like someone has engaged in purposeful chicanery to prevent Warren and Biden sharing a debate stage. Warren would be able to absolutely blast Biden on a (relatively) recent action he took which demolishes Biden’s arguments about the awesomeness of bipartisanship AND that Biden is the guy for hardworking…

I think that’s an interesting hypothesis. I wouldn’t go so far as to say the gop “wants” public places to be unsafe and frightening. I think it’s more they just don’t care/believe it’s the responsibility of each individual to make themselves safe (e.g. carry your own gun for safety against a “bad guy with a gun”).

There’s no such thing as ADA trolls in every city. Federal law explicitly does not permit plaintiffs in a Title III ADA claim to be awarded monetary damages. A court can only award “equitable relief”, meaning having the defendant become compliant with the law. What’s a disabled person’s incentive to file lawsuits…

No. They don’t. Federal law does not allow a plaintiff to receive monetary damages for a violation of Title III of the ADA. You’re just repeating something you’ve heard about what some guy in some state tried to do using state law (not federal law) at one point in time before the law was changed to minimize the chance…

Your misunderstanding of Title III of the ADA as a non-lawyer is causing you to tell anecdotes which are actively harming the disabled by portraying the law, and lawsuits to enforce the requirements of the law, as flimsy shakedowns for a quick buck.

Something is genuinely wrong with Joe Biden. He seems to be suffering from maybe dementia or another condition causing short term memory impairment. It’s not even “cute” or “funny” anymore. These aren’t “gaffes”. These continual “misstatements” are clearly the impact of some sort of impairment or degenerative…

The unabomber was/is a genius and a mathematical prodigy who became the youngest ever assistant professor of mathematics at UC Berkley. Ted Kaczynski might have been “crazy”, but he was “crazy” about a legitimate problem and lately his ideas have been getting somewhat of a reevaluation as we keep marching toward…

I suppose you could interpret the comment about an insurance company approach to also mean changing the law so the insurance company would be compelled to pay out when someone gets injured by gun violence on the insured’s premises. But as you point out, tort law is a state prerogative. In light of recent SCOTUS cases…

What do you mean? The settlement was negotiated as a lump sum with the $125 number being a bullshit “best case scenario” amount assuming barely anyone made a claim for the money they’re owed. Talking about “you’ll get $125" was basically an ad for Equifax to make people think the FTC settlement was actually a…

Public accommodations already have a “duty of care” toward their customers. People sue businesses and places like apartment complexes all the time if they get shot on premises. It’s called “premises liability”. The problem is tort law, not walmart’s ability to pay out an award.

Yeah! Which essay from when he was a sitting US senator, or any other type of elected official, writing about an issue directly related to a bill being considered in the level of government where he was serving are you talking about? Because that would be the equivalent of Senator Biden writing an op-ed about…

From when he was a nobody and did not hold an elected office of any sort at any level in 1972? Wow. You’re right. That’s exactly the same as an op-ed written by a sitting senator regarding an actual legislative proposal he personally had the ability to influence. Totally equivalent and the essay/op-eds should probably…

The same corporate hit squad who hates Sanders’ plan and Warrens’ plan and Harris’ plan guess what, also hate Biden’s plan.
