Well my scenario is more likely than Bernie being pres lol.
Nobody mentioned Sanders

The problem is people like you see everything as adversarial because you've been conditioned to and you get a chemical kick out of it

People like you don't care about actual solutions to these problems, you just want to point and laugh and pretend to be cool to your ingroup of people you associate with

Trump has shown himself incapable of admitting to a mistake. No chance he voluntarily resigns
I fucking vividly remember people saying that about Nixon in early 1974.

Of course he could voluntarily resign, the split second he loses around a third of his support and pardons all his family and friends.

Pardon me if I ignore advice from rapetards who think republicans vote for the democrats house leader
Amazing, isn't it? Guy has no clue about how government works (how many Republican votes will Nancy Pelosi need @Padawanbater2?) but is absolutely certain about it all. I truly don't care if they vote or not - they are a feckless band of dilettantes.

Despite their inflated opinions of themselves, they aren't very bright. Worse, they are easily manipulated by the same type of nonsense that is currently being used to manipulate pro-Trump voters. Just look at the type of insidious crap recently posted about Obama supporting partial birth abortions that motivated our resident idiot, Schuylaar, to post gory pictures in another thread all because Obama refused to vote for a ginned up bill that classified any fetus over 12 weeks as an "infant". Gee, that bill wouldn't have been used to further the attack on Roe v Wade. :roll: They have no appreciation for context or nuance and this allows them to be manipulated into supporting or espousing the worst sort of conspiracy nonsense.

Yeah, sure, please build me a political coalition based on the sort of idiotic thinking that results in "Official Novichok Dissent Thread"s. Sure, let's embrace the Jimmy Dore's and Caitlyn Johnstone's of the world. Nah, I'll take the risk of Trump being re-elected rather than the risk of taking these sort of weak-sisters to our breast.

Any coalition relying on them is doomed to failure. There is more to politics than holding your breath and stomping your feet when you don't get 100% of what you want. This sort of thinking is causing the downfall of our political system.

Fuck 'em.

Shut the fuck up. You're the one who keeps talking about how Progressives won't vote unless they get 100% of what they want. Before giving us an ultimatum, try mustering up the gumption to move out of mom and dad's basement.

You have offered no other explanation for the current occupant of the White House.

And you have ZERO credibility: You stomp your feet and whine more than anyone else on this forum- except for your hero and role model, Uncle Schmuck.

We aren't dealing with a rational actor; Trump understands his appeal to be cult like in nature and acts accordingly.

It's time to stop treating him like a serious politician; he isn't and never has been. He's a huckster and a charlatan, as proven by his track record as a 'businessman'.
Michael Moore calls him an 'evil genius'.

And he probably is.

And as soon as his congressional allies tell him they'll vote against him, he'll issue all the pardons and resign.

I think his fate is up to Mueller and his allies. He likes the easy way out the same as he always has.

Wow, Tty is accusing others of that which he is repeatedly guilty.

What a shock. :roll:

The Senate is still firmly in Republican hands. Trump is a masterful player of the mass media, distracting the gullible from the work being done to dismantle our democracy and shovel favors into the pockets of elite donors. No way they'll dump him; he's way too good at his job.

The very fact that he's an acknowledged criminal and yet has remained in office for 2 years and counting is itself incontrovertible evidence that our government is completely broken and utterly fails to represent We the People- and in fact no longer even bothers to keep up the act of trying.

If Bob Woodward and the rest of the Pentagon Papers crowd tried the same thing today, our country would use the 'Just Us' system to do the same thing to them as we're currently doing to Julian Assange, a man who has broken no laws.
