Well, there are just so many of them!
It’s a common psychological/physical reaction: frequent/continuous stimulation of the same type eventually is ignored.
An statement which is, interestingly, simultaneously totally ridiculous and kinda sorta true, given that (as I understand it) ISIS basically got its start using weapons and materiel that he US had given to the Iraqi army, which then disintegrated.
But that’s probably not what Kelli Ward has in mind.
I think those two like to hate fuck online.
David Duke has announced he’s going to run for the open Senate seat in Louisiana.
I remember distinctly my parents campaigning for his opponent (Edwin Edwards) when he ran for governor around 1990. Uggh…
The Trump campaign worked behind the scenes last week to make sure the new Republican platform won’t call for giving weapons to Ukraine to fight Russian and rebel forces, contradicting the view of almost all Republican foreign policy leaders in Washington.
He followed that up by sayingif he is president, the United States will defend fellow NATO countries only if the countries in question were contributing their fair share to NATO’s budget.
I guess he wants to be a Putin ally.
That makes sense. Paul Manafort has plenty of ties with Russia.
One assume the definition of a “fair share” is to be decided on a case-by-case basis based on what looks immediately convenient, then ?

So do I. Fuck Online is a terrible MMORPG.
I stated this in the Elections thread, but basically Trump called for a religious theocracy where pastors can tell their congregation to vote a candidate or go to hell. I’m shocked this hasn’t gotten more traction. Out of all of the stupid things he said, this fundamentally changes our whole idea of democracy in this country.
Citing Trump as his inspiration for his campaign, since Trump has embraced all of his (Duke’s) values.
Trump’s idea of gutting NATO, and then Trump implying at his convention last nite that it coerced NATO to form an anti-terror task force.
I know I’m a latecomer to this thread having made my first comment on page 6, but I think we all ought to look at its very foundation. The first SRITD (in the thread, not ‘ever’) was about regulating the first lady, mandating that “any government policy group that Mrs. [Trump] … regularly participates in would be subject to a law requiring meetings to be announced in advance and, in most instances, public.”
Granted, the genesis and raison d’etre for the law was about as related to its stated goal as voter suppression laws are to theirs, but with the prospect of a Trump presidency the law doesn’t seem so stupid after all.
Say, Mr. Trump, about using that wall to keep out criminals and other undesirables … you are aware that where walls already exist, they’ve simply tunneled under them, yes?
The wall will be like an iceberg. Only 1/10 will be above the ground.
He did once suggest it would be a ‘virtual’ wall.
So if we use his casino security for a model, he’ll have a team of 6 people operating the 24/7 monitoring of several thousand cameras. Which basically means one $8.16 per hour employee sitting in a room on the east coast, pretending to monitor them while playing Pokemon Go and not giving a shit.
Then they’d simply wait for the next earthquake.
Where do I sign ? And does it *have *to be Pokemon ?
Well, her meetings might produce more good than her husbands – just as long as see keeps quoting Michelle Obama.
No, but you will be vilified before the entire nation for missing a single illegal immigrant.
Yesterday, last season’s The Bachelor, Ben Higgins, announced that he was running for the Colorado state House of Representatives as a Republican, and the campaign would be shown on the upcoming Freeform network reality show about his impending wedding. Today, he withdrew his candidacy due to “unforeseen circumstances”. It appears the circumstances are that ABC said no dice, no mixing politics and our TV shows.
