The bit that gets me is that these new found campaigners for (weak-ass) gun control honestly thought they were going to get something from the Republican legislators they spoke to. Which part of not caring until it was your own kids made you think other Republicans were going to give a shit?

Thanks. That’s about the most genuine response I’ve had on this issue.
I actually think he’s a pretty good president, who got a lot done quietly, including getting through some bipartisan stuff (when he didn’t have a majority across both houses) that I don’t think many other people would have managed because he’s gently spoken and not a tub thumping shouter. I think he has a good heart even if his politics are noticeably further to the right than mine.
AOC would be great. She gets it. She understands ordinary people, which is rare in US politics. Biden is pretty good. Not great at all, just pretty good.
I like that he’s not in the news every day (saying something stupid or nasty showing that he doesn’t understand how stuff works or can’t take criticism like Toddler-brained Trump), but the downside of quietly getting on with the job is that people aren’t as aware of what he’s done.
This is a very important point, yes.
You’re right, but I’m confident he’ll get there in the end.
The person you’re arguing with made the point that if you hold the ones who voted against the bad thing happening as partly responsible, by the same logic, you should hold people who voted for Clinton in 2016 partly responsible for the election of Trump.
I don’t think you can have it both ways. Either the entire USA including you is responsible for Trump becoming president and the entire SCOTUS is responsible for today’s ruling, or you’re not responsible for Trump winning and the three dissenters are also not responsible for today’s ruling.
I get that you’re angry, and it’s a good day to be angry, the day that they ended democracy, but maybe be more selective about who you’re angry with and sometimes try to check if maybe there are some valid things people can disagree with you about.
More treasonous than inciting armed insurrection?
Surely Trump just appeals to the SCOTUS and they free him in line with today’s ruling?
Democracy in the USA ended today. It will be in the history books about the end of democracy.
He won’t. Too honourable.
Just a reminder to our American cousins that in British English, trump means the noise an elephant makes but also to fart: “Sorry I trumped.” Donald the Trump is a noisy noxious unwanted thing on the world stage.
You’re right, yes.
Nastiness. The clear connection, at its heart, it’s nastiness. Lack of compassion. Zero empathy.
Arrrgggghhhhh! It’s Cunningham’s law, and I had to Google it. Went didn’t one of you that knew do it? Arrrggghhhhhh.
