I give it a 33% chance of happening considering the possibility that Trump runs in 2024 and gets beaten in the primaries by another Republican. No way...

Trump should really start a third party and split the right for a generation. That will show them libs.
January 09, 2021 at 02:42
Well that's one way to drain the swamp. Then again, I can't imagine how much richer swamp monsters like DeVos got under these past 4 years. No matter ...
January 08, 2021 at 04:26
Sounds plausible. Maybe it was the fascists who caused WWII and not Antifa.
January 07, 2021 at 04:32
I heard Antifa also caused 9/11, WWII, and killed off the dinosaurs. It's true.
January 07, 2021 at 04:17
Oh no, America is screwed even with Trump gone, but I'm just saying that it's alot more screwy than it is now in this instance because he's a petty ma...
January 07, 2021 at 03:54
Just imagine if Trump had the humility to accept the election results in early November. The GOP wouldn't lose the senate, the party wouldn't have to ...
January 07, 2021 at 03:38
I think it's fair to say that Trump had a little bit of influence on the outcome of the race. Of course the Trump cult would also blame McConnell for ...
January 06, 2021 at 14:37
I mean, Trump made hundreds of millions in donations just from crying fraud and getting his base who somehow still think he's a supreme macho alpha ma...
January 05, 2021 at 01:10
And I fail to see how something so pointless would give him "more than enough reason" to try to undermine the will of the people... again.
January 04, 2021 at 20:03
Except that isn't true. Winning Georgia means he still loses overall. Also he's been at this for 2 months, there have been multiple recounts, and he l...
January 04, 2021 at 19:46
Chalmer's obviously a dualist. That's not what I'm denying. I'm denying that he's somehow assuming it or sneaking it in his explication of the hard pr...
December 31, 2020 at 06:27
A bunch of Republicans do now cause some guy started complaining about it. Same way they all suddenly started to oppose mail-in ballots, or funding ci...
December 30, 2020 at 19:55
McConnell thinks he's invincible, and given how Kentucky voters reelected him, he isn't wrong. Hope people in the state of Georgia have more sense tho...
December 30, 2020 at 13:21
Chalmers isn't assuming anything more than just the first person subjective element of experience. Unless you disagree with the existence of such a th...
December 24, 2020 at 13:07
Sure. Time is often conceived as a series of moments in a 1-dimensional line so a world without such a time is simply a 0-dimensional version of that,...
December 23, 2020 at 20:57
That stimulus bill was passed under his watch. You know, when he could've used his leverage over the GOP to pressure McConnell into passing a bigger b...
December 23, 2020 at 09:35
Hopefully we'll see that kind of innovation and bold action with respect to climate change. Who knows what people can accomplish when the stock market...
December 11, 2020 at 15:00
I guess I don't disagree for the most part, but if the Democrats would win again, it would be with an incumbent on the ticket instead of Ms. identity ...
December 03, 2020 at 23:02
We'll see what happens in Georgia. Hopefully the GOP turnout will be dampened because they see no point in voting in a "rigged" election and this will...
December 03, 2020 at 11:21
In addition it is also because deflationary accounts of consciousness that don't involve emergence are also taken to not be treating consciousness ser...
November 21, 2020 at 13:25
Again there is no "movement" of subjective experience from one moment to the next under a block universe with no flow of time, which is what you're ta...
November 17, 2020 at 21:02
What exactly is a "layer" here? Do you mean like a difference of scale, like the difference between the microscopic quantum realm and the macroscopic ...
November 17, 2020 at 16:27
Eh, I don't think he'd succeed anyways but do you think he's gonna try one what with his sudden firings of Pentagon officials? Personally I'd find it ...
November 16, 2020 at 21:18
Yep.
November 16, 2020 at 19:25
It doesn't. If your current experience consists of just a single instance of time where you feel like things are passing then that doesn't change, any...
November 16, 2020 at 19:12
Not at all. You seem to be implying that we are experiencing our lives like watching a video on loop but the block universe doesn't say that at all. I...
November 16, 2020 at 18:54
Hopefully you can help deliver the Senate to the Dems and keep McConnell out of power. The fate of any stimulus rests on flipping both Georgia seats.
November 16, 2020 at 15:12
Also the stock market rose upon the news of a divided and thus ineffectual congress. Really tells you about the class divides in the country when the ...
November 11, 2020 at 11:18
Huh, close to what I was saying. Again, even if he's going out the door we shouldn't rest easy cause Trump could cause alot of damage to the people ar...
November 10, 2020 at 05:26
I feel like we're at that point in a horror film where the monster gets defeated but spends the next twenty minutes dying on screen and taking some pe...
November 10, 2020 at 03:08
I'm pretty sure that alot of non-Americans were impatient with the results as well, myself included. The electoral college system, the fact that the m...
November 08, 2020 at 09:34
Not true at all. Most people didn't pick Biden in the primaries because they liked him, but because they thought he was "electable" and most people pi...
November 08, 2020 at 00:37
If the GOP hold the senate then that may just be impossible. The only things that could change are matters related to foreign policy since the preside...
November 08, 2020 at 00:29
Oh just wait until Biden gets into office where they'll go from downplaying 200K deaths to complaining about a man's condiment preferences.
November 08, 2020 at 00:22
The establishment would probably want Trump to go away and as for the voters, I dunno really. They may drop him like they did Roy Moore in Alabama. Id...
November 06, 2020 at 22:04
True, but there is a history of people ultimately settling on the default choice even after a primary. Alot of the candidates for both parties are oft...

November 06, 2020 at 19:19
Just woke up to Biden taking the lead in PA and the presidency and now I can sleep for the first time in 4 years.
November 06, 2020 at 18:58
I'm pretty sure they do, especially if you're Cruz, McCain, or Sessions. The establishment GOP live in a bubble away from the troubles of the middle c...
November 06, 2020 at 10:17
Georgia's not out of the woods yet even after this election. They're gonna have to deal with the runoff elections which could decide the fate of the S...
November 06, 2020 at 09:56
So does work, but that doesn't mean you necessarily love it. Remember, Trump disrespected John McCain's military service, insulted Ted Cruz's wife, an...
November 06, 2020 at 09:37
Georgia finally flipped. Biden up by 1K.
November 06, 2020 at 09:22
I imagine their calculation is that since Trump is no longer gonna be president, then he's gonna lose the influence he has. As I said before I don't t...
November 06, 2020 at 09:16
Jeez just flip already. It almost feels like the media and the states counting the votes are intentionally withholding their results because they know...
November 06, 2020 at 08:01
I agree that currently the remaining vote looks like it will put Biden over the top barring some last minute surprise, but with regards to your point ...
November 06, 2020 at 07:58
It's not just Georgia. We're also waiting on a bunch of other states. As for why the election laws are made this way? Apparently the GOP legislatures ...
November 05, 2020 at 20:27
Given how close the race is, then there seems to be a shot at the Democrats winning the Senate as well since it seems like the voter base is there. If...
November 05, 2020 at 20:11
It's close so I wouldn't call it out. Trump's lead has dwindled to 13K and alot of the remaining votes are in blue counties including Atlanta. It seem...
November 05, 2020 at 18:40
Although there's always the possibility for a late surprise, most election analysts are pretty good at forecasting votes from certain demographics bas...
