March 23, 20232 yr So, are we just pretending that Lynched didn’t point out how bad his long-term memory is by admitting that an event he thought had happened 3 years ago actually happened 6 years ago on the same page that he told us what an incredible long term memory he had?

March 23, 20232 yr I was reading back a few pages from last visit (before this went sideways)-only point I'd like to make is that Trump will win millions of votes just because there are millions out there that simply will never vote for a democrat. They hate democrats, and you can't change their minds. No matter the candidate. No matter his 4 year record of being President. These are people I've known all my life. In 2020 I got a rude awakening and honestly, I've lost a bit of respect for these folks. You can't reason with them. Did the God awful Dem President come and take your guns? Raise your taxes? Is your life any less different now? Are you less free somehow? Headed for another sheet show. We need a super hero to appear and kick some arse. Fat chance, but I still hold out hope.
March 23, 20232 yr 15 hours ago, Bill said: I think the problem is that we just used to ignore crazies because there was like only one or two of them. Honestly what needs to be done with MAGAts is that they need to be confronted publicly. So here in Florida there’s plenty of me to yell at. If you see a MAGA, yell at MAGA. Anywhere you’ll be and they’re there, let em have it. Publicly shame them. @mr_hunt, the next time you’re at Price Chopper and some idiot in line says something say something back and shut them. @EaglesRocker97 the next time you drive by some idiot with a sign, shout them down. @vikas83 the next time you’re, uh, accidentally at someplace a poor would be for whatever reason. Just yell at them. And then when you're all finished, everyone else will stand and clap!
March 23, 20232 yr Trump appointees interfered to weaken EPA assessment of toxic chemical https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/mar/23/trump-appointees-epa-toxic-chemical-pfas-pfbs-toxic Quote The assessment would have been used by regulators to establish drinking-water quality standards and other environmental cleanup targets that companies must meet when addressing pollution. Instead of a specific target number, Wheeler ordered a range of toxicity values for PFBS, which meant companies required to clean up pollution could choose to leave higher levels of the chemical in the environment. That could have led to a "less costly, but possibly insufficient” cleanup, the inspector general wrote in its report, and the change’s critics say it put human health at risk. It is unlikely the revised assessment was used in the few weeks that it was publicly available, the inspector general wrote. The changes were "something that industry has always wanted”, former EPA scientist Betsy Southerland previously told the Guardian. You know, because they suck filthy mongoose wang. Who needs drinking water standards?
March 23, 20232 yr Grifters gonna grift.... Trump's fans sent him $1.5 million in 3 days after he falsely predicted that he'd be arrested Tuesday The resulting average of $500,000 a day is almost double the daily average from the weeks before and after he announced his bid for the White House in November.

March 23, 20232 yr Not sure why this needed to be said, but somehow it did. Quote Stop Overthinking It: An Indictment Would Be Bad For Trump Yes, the Trump diehards can be expected to rise up against Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg. But that still wouldn’t earn him a single additional vote. Trump has been unusually resilient against scandal over the years thanks to the unbreakable loyalty of voters who see him as their champion in the arena. My colleagues David Siders and Adam Wren reported that Republicans expect Trump to get a short-term boost from the indictment because it will energize his core supporters. That is probably true. But those supporters are a minority of the country, as Republicans have learned the hard way several times over. Stimulating Trump’s personal following was not enough to save the House for his party in 2018 or to defend the White House and the Senate in 2020, or to summon a red wave in 2022. Trump needs to grow his support, not merely rev up people who already care deeply about his every utterance and obsession. It is not likely that many Americans who are not already part of Trump’s base will be inspired to join it because they feel he is being mistreated by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. If each scandal or blunder binds 99 percent of his base closer to him and unsettles 1 percent, that is still a losing formula for a politician whose base is an electoral minority. Trump cannot shed fractional support with every controversy but make it up on volume. The question before Republicans is whether they need another lesson from the electorate in the perils of running on a version of Trumpism that is all about Trump. A campaign about Jan. 6 and Stormy Daniels is not one that is likely to end well for Republicans. That is a mortal problem for Trump’s candidacy.

This perfectly explains my thoughts from yesterday's conversations.

I've never claimed it did. I would assert that it doesn't. He gains some momentum and votes for the primaries and that's it. It does nothing to help him for the general. The flaw in the article you posted is that he doesn't actually lose anything. We've all agreed in here that his base is already dug in. They aren't leaving, not even 1% and there is already no chance for him to win the general. On the other hand, there is nothing bad in it for him (unless there is jail time at stake which if I've understood correctly is not the case) and it did just put $1.5M in his hands in three days of his beeshing about this case.

It presents the possibility that he could lose 1% of his voters, but the point of the article is to dispel the paranoid left's notion (based on the right's transparently false bluster) that it will actually help him electorally when obviously it won't. As for the punishment, we just don't know yet. There may be jail time, there may not be. But either way, holding up the virtue that no one, not even a President, is above the law is a net positive for America long-term.
