All the projections say that even limited airstrikes against NK would lead to a catastrophe of an unimaginable scale. I don't envision that happening but who knows.

there's a non-zero possibility that trump would come out of any meeting with kim as a committed worker's party zealot and denounce the decadence of the west

it's terrifying because it's a legit possibility. the guy thinks duterte is doing a great job

If Kim flattered Trump and focused on how very badly he was treated by Obama he could pull off something like that, possibly. He hooked Dennis Rodman, a smarter and better man than Trump.

Treeship, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 14:33 (six years ago) link

oh to live in a world where the prospect of president rodman didn't sound like a more appealing proposition than the sitting premier

bitumen: the animated series (bizarro gazzara), Wednesday, 5 July 2017 14:40 (six years ago) link

yes it's true, we live in a world where the president of the United States is Donald Trump and the most successful U.S. emissary to a dangerous dictatorship has been Dennis Rodman. that's something i just had to type out.

President Hillary Rodman-Clinton - it could still happen!

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 14:57 (six years ago) link

if she steps into Seth Brundle's machine sure

Charles "Butt" Stanton (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 5 July 2017 14:58 (six years ago) link

She could divorce Bill, marry Dennis Rodman, and hyphenate. Done!

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 14:59 (six years ago) link

And then she can say she did it all to gain access to North Korea, and save the world. She would sacrifice everything ... for us.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 15:00 (six years ago) link

And then she would run again in 2020 and lose.

He is not well... It's fairly clear. And the stresses of the job won't do him good for the next three and a half years.

Frederik B, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 15:35 (six years ago) link

no offense but videos like that and the speculation they invite really fucking annoy me

first of all, even assuming the worst it's not that bad. a man exits a plane and walks in the wrong direction for 5 seconds and then changes course and walks in a different direction. could this be a clue?!!??!?!?!?!
more importantly, we don't know what's going on off-camera. maybe one of his team of dipshits beckoned to him on one side of the plane, before another dipshit redirected him in another direction? it could be all sorts of things. it's just not a big deal. god, if there were a camera on me all the time with that much scrutiny i'd probably the the subject of a dozen videos per day. zach walked to the kitchen, opened the fridge door, grabbed some hot sauce and returned to the couch, but then he walked BACK to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. why didn't he do both at the same time? is he mentally ill?!? is he fit to be the kind of person who walks around a household?!!??!!

it's just so so so so not important and completely speculative

Ugh, I already regret posting that, it's nothing against you j in chi, I'm just grumpy. Lord Baal knows I've posted my fair share of dumb shit over the years much worse than that.

But KM that's exactly the kind of melodrama based on nothing that Trump's reality show loving fans eat up. They're more likely to see that as evidence of him being unfit to lead than a exhaustively researched article about his shady behavior with his businesses or Russia etc.

Basically my point being that the people who edit reality shows have ruined the country.

Evan, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 16:13 (six years ago) link

trump's reality show loving fans are unlikely to ever see that video and if they do happen across it they'll dismiss it as FAKE NEWS and go back to picking their scabs or whatever

xpost No offense taken. Obviously someone else captured and posted that on youtube, not me. That said, this is not the first time he's done that.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 5 July 2017 16:25 (six years ago) link

I'm not saying it would actually change anything in reality, just talking about what people pay attention to/absorb/are programmed to care about.

That said, there does seem to be ample anecdotal evidence that stairs throw him off.

44 states rejecting voter data request, only 6 are still "undecided" about what to do

Six states have not yet said what they'll do:

Arkansas
Florida
Hawaii
Illinois
Nebraska
New Jersey https://t.co/5UqSkBJAtV

i hope at least these six do the right thing and enable mr. trump's voter suppression efforts!

other than FL, are any of those considered to be states that can tip the EC balance?

Rick Scott's running for senator. I suspect he'll join the list.

Trumpers clinging really heavily to this CNN blackmail story, which is just so incredibly desperate

frogbs, Thursday, 6 July 2017 03:06 (six years ago) link

CNN are fair game, they're such assholes they've managed to look worse than a fucking meme making MAGA chud.

The Adventures Of Whiteman (Bananaman Begins), Thursday, 6 July 2017 09:12 (six years ago) link

How have CNN managed to look worse?

Shanty Brunch (stevie), Thursday, 6 July 2017 10:30 (six years ago) link

CNN is not publishing "HanA**holeSolo's" name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same.

CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.

this is the quote in question.

in a post violentacrez world, redditors shouldn't take their anonymity for granted. but you know, that paragraph is hilariously thuggish.

Nice anonymity you got there, be a shame if anything... happened to it.

I mean, fuck the chud in question obviously. But CNN clearly being thugs here.

Ack, didn't see that quote.

Shanty Brunch (stevie), Thursday, 6 July 2017 10:59 (six years ago) link

As others have noted, it's quite remarkable how much he still blames shit on Hillary or Obama. What a venal, defensive piece of shit.

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 6 July 2017 12:35 (six years ago) link

just to get this straight, is he saying that the election *that he won* was rigged by foreign powers?

Who can say, right?
