Crap does not stick to dems..... Romney said binders full of women and was treated as if he had committed a crime

I'm pulling for Amy K. George H.

I hope she has not said anything that stupid. That woman from Hawaii seems rational too.

I've known some farmers and plumbers and machinists and liked them all so far. Ignorant or stupid ones don't last long.

"Anybody can learn to code" is a common belief, especially among people who have never written, or even read, any code.

A sizable fraction of the population is insulated from the things and people and technology that keep them alive. There is one very-very expensive private college-prep high school near here where machining and electronics are required courses.

Next door to my office is the elevator-repair-person union. They seem cool too. But they have barbeques right below my window and I need to find out how to get invited.

the three years it takes to get into university, I guess roughly equivalent to your senior highschool, I took the path run by the technical college, so in addition to the usually math/physics etc. I tried bricklaying, carpentry, wiring a house, welding, machining, and changed a few head gaskets

It's impressive how many big tough worker-guys are afraid of electricity. Here, hold this wire for a second for me.

They're throwing massive money to buy "likes."

None of the Dems under 40 I know like Biden or Bloomberg! These guys are turds and always have been.

That is to say an "Anything but Trump"-philosophy tends to attract the Mr. and Ms. Anythings. Yes we are quite aware.

Bloomberg seems to be running on a platform of "To beat a Republican, you have to think like a Republican. And be a Republican...."

Eeeeeh despite loads of cash to throw at that questionable leap of logic very few liberal voters I know are fooled.

Bloomberg is a goon and Biden is a goon AND illucid.

Yeah Tulsi G. She's hated by much of the left. (Kinda like Joe Rogan, some narrative develops and you can't go against the narrative or you become an outsider too.)

Hmm well get some nice sausage or such and next time they fire up the barby ask if you can put some meat on it. Or offer something else to share...

George H.

We wouldn't want to give the dumb, deplorable US electorate what they want, would we?

That's funny, about liberal voters not being fooled. Fortunately, politics is heritable and the climate crisis has made them too afraid to breed.

There are a couple billion more other liberals on the planet if one accepts that what passes for left-wing policy in the US is called being "sane human" in most other first-world nations.

People shouldn't go broke paying for healthcare costs, poor people should be able to have food and somewhere to live at a minimum without resorting to religious charities they don't want to be a part of, notions of "personal liberty" should apply equally to women as well as men, you shouldn't be able to buy your way out of jail if you do the crime you do the time, whomever you are or what your income is. Oh, and having as many firearms in circulation as there are people is mad.

Wild stuff!

I don't know about the not breeding part I know plenty with kids, but we do tend to come from environments where our Mom loved us enough and as such we didn't end up as habitually pissed-off as so many wingnuts you can mention seem to generally be. GONNA SHOOT!

Barring the times we get pissed-off when it seems like guys whose Moms didn't love them nearly enough end up being the ones making public policy.

think this fool's Mom loved him enough? I have my doubts...

Tell him "Don't worry it's not your wife"

That rather neglects the money getting spent to persuade the dumber end of the US electorate (which would included John Larkin if he ever bothered to vote) to like particular candidates.

John Larkin does tend to ignore the way that Russian spending on social media persuade the electors to vote for Trump in what turned out to be the three crucial states in 2016.

John Larkin likes thinks that people who haven't been fooled by climate change denial propaganda - as he has - have actually been fooled by sound science.

Why why he imagines that an appreciation of the existence of anthropogenic climate change would make people too afraid to breed isn't quite as obvious. Sheer stupidity is a tempting hypothesis.

The bits of John Larkin's brain that he devotes to tinkering with bits of electronics do seem to be well developed, but they seem to have grown at the expense of the bits that pay attention to anything else.

Well the good news for them must have been to discover Americans tend to be cheap dates!

My conservative kids will beat up your non-existent liberal kids.

Oh, the Russians. Thanks for clearing that up for us, Bill. :)

No need to thank me. Mueller did all the work - as you would be aware if you paid any attention to actual news, as opposed to right-wing twaddle designed to appeal to the likes of John Larkin and Cursitor Doom.
