I have no doubt Trump would be defeated in 2020 by any Democratic candidate who had gone through the primary gantlet, but I believe there is a good chance he will resign first in exchange for a secret pardon from Pence.

Personally, I’m voting for Extinction Level Asteroid Colliding With Earth.
Fox News Asshole One: What do these people like? These visiting doughy rednecks? Are they rednecks or trailer trash? Is there a difference? Foodwise, I mean. What do they eat?
A bit of moldy cheddar on a stale Triskit?
Nancy has the right to withdraw the invite.
The Thin Blue Line Act essentially makes police officers a protected class—similar to minorities, LGBTQ people or women.
I suppose he could have done more but can we stop tearing down our liberal/progressive members because “they did not do the thing I wanted them to”? If all else in the world is great, go after Bernie for this. In the meantime there are actual racist fish to fry. While not perfect, he is a strong voice for many liberal…
Well you don’t have to be told he has. He did. He even got arrested for it. As for expecting better. Sure. Though short of pulling the resignation pen from her hand, I’m not sure what he’s expected to do aside from show his support for her.
Sounds like you’ve got some issues with Bernie outside of this particular event. But again, blaming racist acts on a State’s Senator means that, shit, every Senator in this country is to blame for racism? It doesn’t follow. He should have done more than one facebook post, but the initial question was “why didn’t he do…
Ah. So you’re mad he didn’t speak up more. That’s a fair criticism, but much different from most of the implications in this comment section, including your question.
This. Her resigning was the wrong decision. I’ve seen her try and try and try to explain it, but I’ve never been convinced this was the only way.
I don’t know, but that’s a weird thing to lay at his feet after the initial question was ‘why didn’t he speak up?’
Riiiiiiight. About that.
The paradox of tolerance is that to be a tolerant society, society must be intolerant of intolerance. But it’s necessary because otherwise you just get this equivocating, both-sides bullshit, while people are being actively harmed.
Absolutely, but it wouldn’t have the same effect. It wouldn’t matter the same way as the initial actions because this is practically the Platonic ideal of bullying. Seriously, all this shit (this guy and Steve King and every other one of these limp-dicked, alpha trash assholes) is just my seventh grade writ large.
I’d also point out that him showing up at the press conference was clearly stalking. She isn’t a political official anymore, so their argument that he had a legitimate cause for stalking her doesn’t apply.
So let’s take a look at applicable Vermont laws:
This guy was using harassment and intimidation techniques in front of the police and with their protection, he needs someone to intimidate him in the very same fashion not some sweet church ladies singing at him.
Since he is not Dr. Manhattan, he can only occupy one space at a time.
