Re: trump (the former guy)
I do not want to think that his accusers are motivated by wanting to protect Trump from prosecution. If, in fact, they are being egged on and supported by Trump forces, they deserve to rot in hell. But, I choose not to subscribe to this conspiracy theory. There's a distinction here. I don't believe...

Re: Trump's influence going forward
Just to whom does Murkowski owe loyalty? Silly question. She and every other republican owe their undying, unqualified loyalty to the trumpenfurher. In his mind, he IS the republican party and he IS the United States. Any lack of obsequiousness (see Lyndsay Graham), no matter how slight, is seen as...

Re: trump (the former guy)
Is this for real? I find it hard to believe that Trump would want anyone to stop saying his name. I think his biggest fear is that people WILL stop talking about him. Maybe we should treat him like Voldemort, and call him "He who shall not be named". Besides, if it is for real, can someon...

Re: trump (the former guy)
Is it just me, or is that message even less coherent than usual for individual-1. The first sentence "Karl Rove has been losing for years, except for himself" doesn't make any sense. Well, now that Trump has been inaugurated again, as the 19th legitimate president, will he get his twitter ...

Re: Kushner's Time Square Property Close to foreclosure
Kushner probably told him to piss off, and Trump started telling everyone he fired him. Quite possible. My point is that this is just as likely as the other way around, and there is no way to know. Ever. Fortunately the family squabbles of toads don't matter. That's kind of insulting to toads, don'...

Re: Puerto Rico - Next State?
The R's would probably insist that Puerta Rico formally adopt English as their official language and that they print ballots only in English.
Many R's and other conservatives are upset that the Voting Rights act of 1964 requires ballots to be available in both English and Spanish.

As I was taught, under common law an assault is an attempt to physically touch someone, and battery is actually touching. If I take a swing at you and miss , I have committed assault. That may not be the way the criminal statutes are written in any particular state. But driving 70 to 80 mph on a si...
