I’m so over all this Bullshit, it’s exhausting and it’s probably only gonna get worse. Seriously thinking of wrapping it up and finding a small place to retire to and turn off all external noise. I’m already there by most standards but it’s wearing me down fast

I tire of these idiotic generalis(z)ations about America. Trying to pigeonhole the people and evolution of family units and belief systems here through the lens of monocultures nearly everywhere else on the globe seems foolish, and as such, it is fools that try to do it. And they all seem so SURE of themselves.We're talking many millions of bets ^_^. This is the definition of a "statistically predictable" event that remains in the balance. Everyone, stock markets and businesses and media and academics are modelling it constantly. Every fucker is modelling it based on the latest data. The odds reflect those models because people have access to them, and they want to make money.
People everywhere on the internet, sitting their coping, are overlooking something about America. It is a very divided nation. States make their own laws.
Regarding this verdict, should be aware that Picket fence America detests and distrusts NY. TBH I'm not suprised by the verdict but I wasn't impressed by the case. Wow, a verdict. OJ Simpson was a verdict. Did we believe that?
All of America distrusts authority. It reserves the right to keep arms to 'keep the govt from their door'. It culturally detests govt in a way we experience once in a blue moon. It had a civil war you may have heard about, right before the industrial revolution. It never got over it for long. It refuses social medicine. It equates socialism with communism and throws people in jail for party membership. It salutes the flag and sings the anthem every day.
That is the side of America Trump and Republicans get. The vast numbers of people who you and I never meet or speak to or see. What appeals to them. It doesn't appeal to us.
What it is, is flags and shit, and the spirit of American independance and 'freedom' etc.
It ain't rocket science. And it aint nice words about trials and verdicts.

That’s why you come on Bluemoon, to get a well balanced and well educated view on AmericaI tire of these idiotic generalis(z)ations about America. Trying to pigeonhole the people and evolution of family units and belief systems here through the lens of monocultures nearly everywhere else on the globe seems foolish, and as such, it is fools that try to do it.

Yes, yes, yes. I am so pleased. Let us hope that this is the beginning of the end of the Maga cult and a return to normal in US politics. It is important not just for America but for the whole world.
As Churchill said of El Alamein: “It is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end but maybe it is the end of the beginning.”

He can still stand for President, but as a Florida resident and felon, he can’t vote in the election!!What happens now guilty on all 34 counts I think he can still stand for election.
Crazy, huh?!
One pundit gave a funny analogy…
Drunk tries to get on an aircraft. Flight Attendant steps forward and says, “Sir, I’m sorry, but our Management, the FAA and even our Captain are adamant that we carry no drunk passengers on our flights.”
“Not a problem,” says the drunk, “I’m the Captain!”
Trump can’t VOTE for President, but he can BE the President!
One of the problems with a 250 year old document that lays out what can and can’t be done is that it could never have possibly envisaged some the modern machinations we face on a daily basis, let alone one as unique as this!

What the actual fuck.

Go into Trump’s orbit and first you use sophistry, next you tell lies and finally you talk gibberish. Blanche, an attorney with a decent rep, has started down that road. Like all the others he will end up disbarred, broke and abandoned by Trump.
