Thanks for your post. I now plan to visit the Nuclear Physics thread to find out what wisdom you have to impart on another topic about which I’m guessing you have little understanding.

Spot on, well done.

Some knew what they were voting for and were happy re policy. And if they don’t get it, then they were naïve. Will they get it? I predict no. Will they believe they got it when told? Yes. Because they’re naïve. Some knew what they were voting for and were happy re the man. They aren’t...

Naïve. We keep forgetting naïve.

Or naïve.

Ha ha ha ha the Gordian Knot!!

Yes. Hence my regular focus on this as a “revenge on all who’ve wronged us”, “own the libs” vote. But per some comments from others, it’s obviously more than that too. My fear is that folks who supported him never realiz(s)e — let alone admit — that they made a mistake. And then they make worse...

Of course. He's a fundamentally bad guy. We know this factually. If you voted for him, you rationaliz(s)ed that somehow -- doesn't matter how or why. I will admit calling this a "moral failing" on the part of his voters is unfair. Calling them "stupid" is unfair too. But I will say this...

As a straight white male I too felt a rush of anger/resentment when “I” was “blamed” for the ills of the world by many not just progressives but moderates. But then I realized that there are aspects (not all) of the “white male privilege” argument that are sound, and I read an interesting book...

This is 100 percent correct.

I’m more scared that morality/quality just doesn’t matter. It’s just “policies” — which he will utterly fail at implementing, but which will be excused away and ignored, just as his moral failings are. Which will then make moral failings irrelevant for all future candidates.

Thanks for that. Not sure what you can do with it. Several of those talking points have been force-fed by RWN (as if Russia wants be our friend, come on, or as if COVID wasn’t the cause of inflation, which has now normalized). Not the SA and not wanting more conservative judges — those might be...

All this because I have no interest in having a drink with you. Sad.

As such, why is it so difficult to see how moderates like me are so appalled by HIM? ANYONE is better than him. Kamala (pronounced Kamala) wasn't close to my pick -- she was my Senator and city AG -- but she's not a complete lunatic. I dare say she'd be more pragmatic than Barack Obama. I mean...

Yeah, let's see. First, no it isn't. Otherwise Nixon would never have resigned. But that was then. Of course it seems "about the policies" now that the law-breaking etc. has been ignored by the electorate and squelched by his election. Problem is, if they fuck all the policies up, all those...

Yes, all perfectly normal.

Cuz there was a fight among his advisors about it. But Luttnick was named Commerce Secretary so I assume Treasury will be soon.

Thanks, liar.

Not yet but he will.

Tell you what — let’s make it his job. You ask questions all the fucking time. Now you’re playing defender of the meek? Anyway, I already gave you the answer: no one.
