Hey, my wife works there! (Atlantic Council). FYSA, they're very non-partisan.

Remember Moab

Let's take that call and change it to a Union leader and a Mafia Don and see if it is a bit more clear: Mafia Don: I'm a big fan of yours, congrats on winning your election. What an achievement. Union Leader: Thank you Mafia Don, you're the greatest, I only won because I followed your footsteps. I hope we have more frequent elections so you can call me more frequently. Mafia Don: Heh! That's a great idea! Union Leader: Yes, well, to tell you the truth, we fought very hard to win so we could install our own people and take full control of the union, much like you did with yo

The man elected by the people and for the people has clearly demonstrated he is governing in his own personal interests above the interests of the people. For that reason, he needs to go. ETA: Not a democrat and never have been one. Still hate him. Didn't favor impeachment/removal until the Ukraine situation illustrated what I already thought of him, that's he's a selfish ##### who only cares about himself, and does not care what happens to the country as long as it benefits him.

I still remember how close it was to McCain having Leiberman as a running mate. All downhill from that point to present IMO.

And I'm all for treating people decently and a bit sad that it is taking this much effort on the part of you and your staff to ensure that is the case. Politics has just become soooo divisive. "The Grand Debate" is kinda dead, and I mourn it.

Food for thought: I barely care about FF anymore, I only play casually. I still subscribe to the site almost exclusively because of my decade plus participation in the forums. I'm probably not the only person like this. I have no idea how expensive they are to maintain, or how many subs you gain because of the forum, but you definitely gain at least 1 user from them.

Although, I also think Pence would put country first too. I strongly dislike him as well. Unsure if I dislike him or Pelosi more, and I dislike them both for completely different reasons.

If both Trump and Pence go down and are removed, does that happen? :shudders: Still, even at that high price, removal still needs to happen. At least she'll put the country before her personal agendas, or at least try to do it that way.

Like me ask you something: When a mafia Don tells his enforcer that he doesn't like someone and that he'd probably enjoy his life more if that someone just disappeared.... did he order an execution? Because what Trump did in that conversation lines up in a very very similar manner.

OMG I hope he does a Marlon Brando accent when asking for a favor immediately after being asked what was up with the military aid. Cause that's how I read it in my head.

I'm not sure the theory holds water. Usually whenever something is invented, someone else was moments behind the inventor in getting there themselves. Pretty sure it was something like the telephone where the patent applications were on the same day or something. My memory sucks, but without Einstein, we'd still have split atoms, maybe just a year or two later. Unsure if the same applies to political leaders, but maybe. Having met many famous folks who are considered extraordinary, for the most part, they're just people like everyone else is. ETA: We mythologize it a LO

If I'm being critical of politics in another country and it is isn't immediately clear that I'm not from that country, I would state so. Not sure I've ever been in that situation though. I certainly wouldn't pretend to be English, post on a footie message board and go on and on about how Prime Minister Stupid Blonde Man-Child is the best thing since sliced crumpets. Mainly, I'm saying if you want to curb the intentional spread of misinformation, maybe make sure people are who they say they are. Some stuff is just soooooo out there, I question it myself. Maybe I need more tinfoil, I

Are they pretending to be American whilst doing it? Then yes. Banned forever actually.

I'd be fine as long as it is disclosed.
