What an Oligarch Looks Like

[Ivytalk]

No kidding, Senate will easily swing to the donks thanks to Trump.
And 93 blaming the Johnson for hilldogs easy impending win?

It's not Johnson's fault that a significant portion of the Republican Party (RIP) has no backbone and is running scared to him.

Won't be "significant" enough to cost Drumpf the election. He's hanging himself by his own small balls.

I'll be the first to admit that Trump sucks at life, but my God how can you not do everything in your power to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House if you have any balls left at all?

While also true, that doesn't take into account the other candidates that signed that (now worthless) pledge to support whoever the nominee is...after holding Trumps feet to the fire about it in the first place.

conks.

If I pulled the lever for Drumpf, I'd have to leave my balls in the voting booth with a "please stomp me" sign next to them.

Sorry, klam, for painful memories.

Yeah, old Bernie didn't need to take no stinkin' pledge, did he?

Simple solution...progdonks need to make a stand and vote for Jill or even Gary.

Many will. Trump is so miserably bad that they can afford to stay home or vote third party. Likely both in record numbers.

It's called a conscience. Not that you'd recognize that.

My conscience tells me not to let Hillary Clinton appoint the Supreme Court justices that will ensure a liberal majority for the rest of your lifetime.

Good lord, you cannot be serious...



So many things to actually worry about and you come up with this ^

Neither for nor against...
Supreme court justices - have had ZERO effect on my daily success and daily joy



I manage to get out of bed and live my life without them ever crossing my mind

Cool, enjoy Florida..................

Bullshit, Cleets. We know all about that nude photo of Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg on your bedroom ceiling.

Yeah, old Bernie didn't need to take no stinkin' pledge, did he?

Nope he fell in line and helped the donks continue to obliterate the conks this election cycle...and he got a nice lake house out of the deal too.

Not as nice as the house Biden got a few years back, I'll bet.

There's no "there" there in any of that.

No there where in any of what?

The article. The Secretary of State's office undoubtably fields all sorts of inquires and contacts. You can't say there is any sort of association unless you consider all of them and their outcomes. For example: The State Department went to bat for Boeing to get business with the Russians. A couple of months later Boeing made a donation to the Clinton foundation. Well, did every entity the State Department went to bat for make a donation to the Clinton foundation? Did every entity that made a donation to the Clinton foundation have the State Department go to bat for it? We don't know the answer to either question because there's not enough data cited by the article to make that determination.Is there any evidence in the article to establish that making a donation to the Clinton foundation made the State Department more likely to go to bat for an entity?

The answer is "no." That sort of thing.

BTW, this is what Oligarchs look like:



One of the pictured individuals is gone now but that's the element of oligarchy in the United States system. If you want to worry about government by oligarchy that's what you should be worried about. That's where virtually absolute power rests in the hands of a very few totally unaccountable individuals.

Wouldnt the oligarchs be the ones controlling the justices?

Aren't your objections to the SCOTUS rulings primarily concerned with populist ideals?

You appear to be extremely confused here.

I'll reply to your first post after I'm done laughing...er I mean digesting it.

(That one still has me thinking you're a master troll)

[OL FU]

I am amazed that somebody would hug Hillary so much now but if the repubs would have put up a semi worthwhile candidate he would be hatin on Hillary like no others.

I have no problem with someone saying because of trump I am voting for Hillary but the love fest is really quite sickening.
