the national discourse pre-Trump: screaming at each other over where trannies go pee; endless disgust at the name of the Washington DC football team

the national discourse 2017: nuclear war, loss of freedom of the press, destruction of nato, institutionalized sexual harassment, muslim registries

anyone want to argue about how many angels are dancing on a pin, for old times sake?

Mrs Wease has female family members who are all hard-right staunch republicans. A vote against Trump, to them, is a reservation in hell. They're all loading up for the inauguration Friday then on Saturday, going to a women's rights demonstration on the streets outside the White House

Er...

By "just," I mean today. And also by Anon, I apparently mean either them or the rumors Trump's own supporters are now chatting about regarding a leaked racist tape. Or I'm dime.

It's just hard to keep track as these things fly by anymore.

Everybody was playing the "Oooo will he get assassinated?" game with Obama and obviously nothing happened. I imagine nothing will happen with Trump, either. 50,000/1

"Like 9/11"? Probably even closer to nil. Like Orlando, San Bernardino? 1000/1 or so.

Hard to say. US and Russia being bros will not please our buddies in the Arabian peninsula, who are the primary state sponsors of terror, being that their main economic goal over the last two decades has been to maintain their energy monopoly by replacing the EU's dependency on natural gas from Russia with their own supplies via long range pipelines through Iraq and Syria. On the plus side, cooperation with Russia will likely improve conditions in Syria. On the minus side, their are going to be a lot of pissed of syrian 'rebels' with a yuge dislike for America.

If I had to guess, 2017 will be the year of cyber attacks against western financial systems and institutions. An attack on the GPS system is not out of the equation either.

Or like I suggested two pages ago, a fake one has been produced and is now ready to be released (since we have all been primed to be sensitive to our countries horrendous history with race by MLK day), because the manufacturers know that people want to believe it's real.

Maybe that's what Alec Baldwin meant by "other venues."

I was referring to the days immediately after when everyone was trying to tell us that bubbles and not reaching out to the working mayun' is what really did us in.
That's only why the democrats lost the election, not that it was good or bad.

p.s. Saying 'fuck you' and calling them the working mayun' is a poor way to win their votes.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you already knew and understand that The Boss was never going to play, it was a tribute band.

I know but I like to think that the cover band was plan B.
