Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation Hearing Now with Poll

[Telconi]

It's not really that it's fine, more that we can live with it.

As long as the criminality doesn't directly affect you, you're okay with the Don being in power?

Given the alternative, yes.

[Fartsniffage]

As long as the criminality doesn't directly affect you, you're okay with the Don being in power?

Given the alternative, yes.

What do you have against Mike Pence?

[Telconi]

Given the alternative, yes.

What do you have against Mike Pence?

Nothing, I actually like Pence significantly more than I like Trump.

[Washington Resistance Army]

I love how Trump supporters are fine with so many high-level people close to Trump being actual criminals as long as Russians aren't directly involved.

I feel like most Americans who aren't overly idealistic have accepted government corruption is a thing.

[Fartsniffage]

What do you have against Mike Pence?

Nothing, I actually like Pence significantly more than I like Trump.

So you like the alternative more than Trump but are okay with all the criminality because you don't want the alternative?

Are you high?

[Washington Resistance Army]

Nothing, I actually like Pence significantly more than I like Trump.

So you like the alternative more than Trump but are okay with all the criminality because you don't want the alternative?

Are you high?

The alternative being Democrats...

[Telconi]

Are you high?

Pence isn't the alternative to Trump.

[Fartsniffage]

Are you high?

Pence isn't the alternative to Trump.

Right now he is.

[Telconi]

Pence isn't the alternative to Trump.

Right now he is.

No, disgraced not-going-to-get-elected Pence is the alternative to Trump. And that guy sounds pretty un-electable.

[Ifreann]

WHO TOL-


I mean, haha, there are no buried guns.

You leave Alan alone.

That is to your detriment, ultimately. The gradual acceptance of corruption by men in power leads in due time to the corrosion of institutions, and the loss of faith in those same institutions, something your vigilance -- given your country's relevance -- could've at least checked.

If as a conservative you had acted, instead of standing by and letting your back be scratched, que sera sera, a frankly reactionary and openly corrupt GOP that more-or-less tacitly doubts the merits of the same democracy its first standard-bearer strove to save (vis-à-vis Trump) never would've arisen.

[Fartsniffage]

Right now he is.

No, disgraced not-going-to-get-elected Pence is the alternative to Trump. And that guy sounds pretty un-electable.

No need to elect him, he already got elected. All you need to do is stop supporting Trump and start supporting impeachment.

Terms of office exist...

And the President can leave office before his term ends.

Doing that would imply our democracy is worth saving though.

Well just as long as you can sleep at night supporting someone you don't like rather than working for the person you like more.

Lots of wanna-be dictators don't like democracy.

Lots of wanna-be dictators don't like democracy.

Also lots of people who don't like seeing it ruin their nation.

I can't, but it isn't because of Trump.

Never heard of them.

[Greed and Death]

The accusation of rape against Bill Clinton have more facts supporting them than this letter. For one the victim stepped forward and identified herself, the person who wrote this letter is anonymous. I am sorry but if she is unwilling to step into the light of day and be subject to cross examination I do not think we should ruin a man's job over it.

The timing was perfect to apparently

SURPRISE LOOK EVERYONE HES A RAPIST!!! IT"S NOT LIKE WE HAVN'T BEEN TRYING TO RAILROAD HIM FROM DAY ONE LOOK!!!

And of course Senator Feinstein alters the evidence so we have no way to verify this.

[Fartsniffage]

Well just as long as you can sleep at night supporting someone you don't like rather than working for the person you like more.

I can't, but it isn't because of Trump.

....you okay?

It is. Your own contempt for it notwithstanding, American democracy has served you well, as have your ancestors (as long as they were within tacitly prescribed social limits, yes, but still). And again, I must raise the Russian roulette analogy (or just world history, but then Russian analogy is nothing else if not apt for this moment in history): if you think democracy is bad, try betting on a benevolent dictator and see if he doesn't shoot you dead in the end (or worse, make your life a living, interminable hell, compared to which death is but cold comfort).

Not sure why you would bring up Helen Keller in a thread about a SCOtUS thread.
