I still remember a time in this country, not so very long ago, that both sides would have been severely critical of direct and intentional interference by a foreign government in our presidential election. Wouldn't matter who won or lost, both sides would be screaming for immediate investigations. Nobody would be spinning, rationalizing, or making fucking excuses.
But now, we have 'fake news'.
Fake news doesn't sound as bad as 'propaganda', so it can't really be bad, right?

I'm anxiously awaiting DNI/CIA/FBI release of its comprehensive investigation into Russian hacking. I do wanna know the truth.

Hypothetically, what would you think of trump if we found out he'd been in contact with the kremlim?

He's had contact.

If you're meaning contact as in colluding with the Kremlin to rig the election in his favor-
Well then I'd call it Treason and support the death penalty.

Yeah, the obvious ties and admiration bother me greatly, let alone what we don't know.
Good to know you'll hold him accountable, when he does fuck up.

You mean him losing the popular vote in the primaries by a huge margin?
Why do people so vehemently support the people who can't actually win a majority of the votes?

so, i wonder what obama is gonna say in his press conference tomorrow.
probably just coincidence he's deciding to hold a press conference at 2:15 pm on a friday before he leaves for holidays.
definitely not gonna say anything that cripples or disqualifies or delegitimizes trump in any way. that's for sure.

This film was everything when I was a kid. Still is, in many ways. Sure, it's nihilistic as hell on the surface, but I honed-in on the characters foremost. Dutch, Lisa, and Richie representing what I was hearing and seeing everyday from my brothers/cousins/friends, and Neville serving as the familial Nixon-era repub always telling people to "get their friggin hair cut", "join the Army", etc. (Though the character goes against stereotype - actually uplifting younger folks, demonstrating self-sacrifice, showing little to no sign of racist mindset, etc.)
The Corringtons, Boris, the entire cast, and everyone involved with the creative end, I thank you.

Fantastic score that I've been humming since birth:

You give yourself too much credit. Silver was a great investment for me. It paid well. Noone said it was for you, obviously. And the legal tender issue is quite a separate debate than the investment, obviously. I am glad you're amusing yourself though.

There is a difference between skill and luck. I'm glad you didn't lose your trailer over it.

Dude, Hindenberg was elected in 1932 through a second round popular vote majority of 53%.

What? do you think history should repeat itself? There are many similarities to the German elections in the early 1930's and what's happening now. The best similarity to the situation in the US today is 1934 Germany, not 1932.
