    I've always said that I'm happy for the left to decide the standard regarding this kind of thing, as long as it's applied equally.

    The idea that Kellyanne Conway is unattractive is hilarious.

    If anyone here is scoring with someone better, I'd like to see the evidence.

    @Dick Whitman and I are obviously exempt from this challenge.

    Yeah, but the United Nations will put Algeria on probation instead.

    Lifetime protection was restored a few years ago, thank God. Pretty sure that adult children of an ex-Potus don't get it after a few years though.

    Sucks to have him not be able to win no matter the choice he makes, right?

    Now you know how we felt for the last 8 years about Obama never being able to win with the GOP no matter what he did. He does Choice A, GOP screeches. He does Choice B, GOP howls.

    Now it's our turn to jump down on Trump for ... every ... fucking ... thing. Enjoy the next 4-8 years.

    Your side did the screeching from 2000-08, too. So should we make our reservations for the screeching chamber from 2024-32 now to beat the rush?

    Seems like a pretty objective scoring system...was it rigged as badly as North Carolina's legislative districts? I doubt it.

    What's happening in NC should, again, alarm the shit out of people. It's the worst example of what the GOP has done all over the nation in regards to owning statehouses. It's a pretty brilliant, if wicked, gameplan that will take years to undo. Democrats were asleep at the wheel, too, and now they're back Reagan 80s - without the advantages at local and state government.

    However long this period of dominance lasts, it will be rough for many Americans.

    This is utter "war games" nonsense.

    What didn't hasn't worked out very well were constant proxy fights in the 1980s that happened right under clueless (or tacitly supportive, if you wish) Reagan's nose. I just love - love! - all the work America did to prop up asswipes in Iraq, Afghanistan and central/south America - all decisions that have come back to screw this nation in major ways - and truly look forward to mucking about again.

    State Democratic parties have been asleep at the wheel for a few decades in most states.

    If you designed districts in the fairest way possible and cut out the bullshit voter suppression tactics, my guess is that N.C. would still have a (smaller) GOP majority in the state house.

    It's cute that you expect This Fucking Guy to serve a second term.
