A lot of damage has already been done, unfortunately. Many of these people won’t come back, and even those that do will still be working in fear as this works it was up to SCOTUS, who I’m certain will rule based on law and precedence.

Pluto isn’t a planet.

Argument destroyed, pharma shill ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Dude is confusing attacks on his legitimacy with Illegitimate attacks.

Surely you don’t mean their god visiting wrath upon them for being sinners? That’s DEFINITELY gonna be in the textbooks

Missed opportunity with the fuel efficiency OP…so close to 42.0

Dead eyes…like a doll’s eyes.

You have to bear them against the right people.

Great…now they’re gonna crusade against the liberal zoos. There’ll be super successful “patriot zoos” which are really just paid tours of factory farms where the treatment of the animals will be landed as traditional, conservative, even biblical. People will eat it up.

Not even a tithe.

Trying to use the Principal of Charity, it was probably just that one or more counties pushed a version of the form out from after the Republican convention, but before the Democratic one.

I’m fairly confident that if it was done with malice, they’ll figure it out in short order and handle it accordingly. Despite what Republicans want to think, there are a good number of fraud protections built into the system…if there weren’t, it would be easier and more effective for Ryssia/China/Iran/whoever else to directly hack the system than to spend the time and money paying people to shitpost devisive political garbage for months leading up to the election.

I’m worried it would fuck his mind so bad he’d start making sense /s

Never forget…felt like that in 2016 too…hell, 1/2 through election night I still wasn’t worried (enough). What a fucking nightmare

You know the couch was into it… When the couch doesn’t want it, nature has ways of just shutting all that down.

Personification of the meme…If you don’t treat them like an authority, they won’t treat you like a person.

That would also let the GOP pick the VP unless they lose control of the House. Not an ideal situation.

Please, not another octigenarian

So I’ve got this dog… She’s a 2 year old rescue. She was supposed to be someone else’s, but she was so traumatized by something that they couldn’t train her, couldn’t even pet her, and eventually, one thing led to another and we ended up with her. Took about 2 months before anyone in the house could even pet her, but now she’s super lovey to everyone who lives in my house. She is “growling and barking when someone walks past the house on the other side of the street” levels of protective, though, and it’s disruptive to our lives. It would be easy to just kick her or yell at her or get a shock collar and solve the problem that way, but I haven’t done that because I’ve spent a lot of time rehabilitating rescue dogs and I know that abusing her will male her stop barking but at the cost of her personality. If our house becomes another abusive situation, she’ll regress and, rightly, start being scared of people again… maybe forever this time. Instead, I got a sonic egg that distracts her when she barks, and I’ll gently pet her and talk softly to her when she’s spazzing out. She is slowly getting better. Some days, it’s still frustrating and disruptive, but the way i solve the problem is important to my desired outcomes. I want a dog that loves and trusts me and my family and still wants to protect us but doesn’t feel like we need protection from everyone who walks by.

In the same way, and as you said, with much higher stakes, I want Trump to lose , and I want the US to remain (and even improve) our democracy. Political assassination is incompatible with functional democracy. I know the US has a lot of problems with our democracy, but I’m not ready to “kick my dog” yet. I still want to save it. That does NOT mean I won’t put the dog down if she bites one of my kids, but I kick her, then she bites… that’s on me.

I think “killing political opponents is detrimental to democracy” and “let’s save democracy” are pretty consistent.

Man, I would love to watch his supporters work through the dissonance on that one. On one hand, they already chose Trump over their god… On the other hand, “come and take it” culture is right up there with evangelicalism as far as being really ingrained.

If posting them in the churches didn’t stop priests and pastors, why would it work differently with teachers in schools?
