  1. When we all know it is Biden and Tay Tay who decide that.
  2. I don't anyone because of their worldview. I block people who are only here to troll. I don't block you, or RonD or Winsor.
  3. But it was okay to choose Pence to appeal to evangelical white men?
  4. Imagine that. Instead of turning inertia into heat we can turn it into electricity and store it in a battery. Just imagine if Jakes could make fuel.
  5. Do a Putin. Invade Canada to save it from going to the nazis.
  6. I'm guessing that is the main reason most Veeps accept the job. They are all hoping to get to the big office some day. And not necessarily the dramatic way.
  7. All you really need to do is start a good old fashioned war. Then get the military on your side and declare martial law "for the good of the nation in the current emergency".
  8. She is unpopular enough that her own bid for the nomination went nowhere. She is popular enough in her home state to become a US Senator.
  9. Exactly. And Harris is qualified as well. But qualified does not mean popular.
  10. The law of averages says that someone who had made it to 81 and is still in good health will most likely live another 5 years. But of course nothing is guaranteed in life.
  11. Now I'm running a list of past Veeps through my head. I can't think of any that were considered ready to be POTUS by the general public. Did anyone want Biden? Bush? Pence? Gore? Cheney? Quayle? I mean, while they were veep.
  12. It's getting harder and harder to impeach cabinet secretaries. How will the nation survive?
  13. It's hard to see how authoritarianism would not be the default in any large and well organized human society. We all live under some degree of it. The only thing that keeps it in some check in the western world is the thing we call democracy in all its various forms. It is the power to force a change of rulers on a regular basis every 4 years or so. No one or no group who holds power ever gives it up willingly. And we can all see that democracy is incredibly fragile.
  14. Well....you are here and that means at least you are listening to others.
  15. Judging from his posts I would say that most likely he is drinking kool aid from the big FOX pitcher.
  16. And she has a scary name. Like that Hussein Obama charachter.
  17. That's why it doesn't happen. Sometimes if they are very insistent they are allowed to begin. Allowing is not the same as encouraging.
  18. Kamala Harris is for sure one of the R party's favourite scare tactic boogeymen. (is boogeywoman a thing?) The reality is she would be far better than the recycled dotard they are offering up.
  19. Other than a "gut feeling" why are you marking your words down?
  20. Well….. everything and everyone ends someday. So either it fixes itself or you and I don’t live long enough to care.
  21. Also #1 in Electoral College votes. 54 of them beauties.
  22. They actually vary depending on how the known variables for his health and history are accounted for. From a high of a 95% to a low of 75% chance of living out a second term. Which is higher than most give the fat out of shape dotard who is trying to replace him.
  23. Chubb group is listed on the NYSE and is incorporated in Zurich. It is an S&P 500 component. So if you hold any ETFs based on that congratulations, you are a part owner. Bonding judgements is not listed as part of their core business. It's hard to say what could possibly motivate them to take on this venture. They are already taking considerable heat for getting involved. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chubb_Limited
