I've been on dating sites and services for DECADES, and my experiences have been awful, traumatic and worse. One fine (anorexic) lady had the good manners to admonish me for not telling her I was obese (I'm not). ...But... I don't recommend Silver Singles because they like to match people more that 20 miles away. And yet, using SS I met a wonderful lady. After a year of dating, she moved in just as the pandemic started. No arguments, we are still sane; she is a gourmet cook and I gourmet wash the dishes. We share almost all our values. We are different races, but the same species; that's what matters. She's a psychologist and I'm an engineer, but we both tolerate those aspects too. It's pretty fine when it works out, and I recommend it. Someone could make a lot of money if they worked out a system that really worked to bring people together.

Even if the Senate isn't able to exile Trump from holding office as part of the Impeachment, the Constitution, Amendment 14, Section 3 is crystal clear in banning those who aid insurrection from any public office. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

The work product may well have been carried out by Trump and his sycophants, but the plots have been hatched in Moscow and relayed to Trump. The character of these plots proves they are not domestically conceived.

They saw someone who aspired to fascism, and who signaled a willingness to stop the democracy that empowered non-whites. They saw a street-fighter whose tactics confused opponents accustomed to mature and respectful discourse. They saw someone who promised to overturn Roe and appeared to have the capacity to finally pull it off.

In being absurdly wrong on so many topics, yeah, the GOP will make new lies to idolize their cult leader. That's the point. The GOP and it's philosophy (or lack thereof) is not just unfit to serve, but represents the primary danger to the survival of the country. The democrats can behave amiably, but fully displacing the GOP must be the actual priority. Disenfranchising these kooks will not be easy, but it must be done. It's that or suicide. Take your pick.

White nationalists, self-hating non-whites, KKKers, Incels, neo-Nazi wannabes and other non-affiliated super-bigots. Mostly overlapping you have your Q-Anon conspiracy nuts. A lot of people in law enforcement, fire departments, and too many in the low to middle management of retail and service corporations. People who had nothing better to do with their time than to watch The Apprentice, and liked it. They are 'don't confuse me with facts, my mind is made up.' In particular, people of low IQ or who have been gullible to be drawn in and then stay in. People who are insecure, ex-military victims with PTSD, or damaged by childhood trauma. The trauma comes from assorted forms of sexual dysphoria from religious instruction or abuse from relatives. They lack sincere responsibility, honesty, curiosity, imagination, creativity, empathy and any sense of love. I expect it is pretty miserable being one, but most importantly, they have no qualms about fascism. They favor fascism with its simple-minded absolutist principles, or lack thereof. They are religious egotists, believing their dogma is the one and only ultimate truth, and everyone else is going to hell.

racocn8 comments on Jan 15, 2021:

Um, ya think?? It appears that the Lincoln Project's campaign to discourage corporate funding of the GOP has succeeded quite well, for the current moment. Trump had trashed and destroyed the United States reputation around the world (What there was of it). Betraying the Kurds was horrific. Who could ever trust the US knowing the next election could bring about lasting fascism? That being said, my fantasy is that international purchases of goods and services in the Red States would also be curtailed. In other words, boycott the Red States. I'm not offended by the term cancel culture. Every legal means available to choke off Evangefascists finances should be pursued. They are degenerates morally, ethically, and every other way. The percentage of unaffiliated rises dramatically with decreasing age. We need to strengthen and embolden their resolve by funding academic non-believer groups.

And, they continue to use language which is dishonest, illogical, and insulting, as well as being based on Trump's lies, using false equivalence and whataboutism. It's hard to listen to them. Really, they are unfit human beings, much less government officials.

So, what is the viability of Trump pardoning himself and fellow family members?

racocn8 comments on Jan 13, 2021:

Trump's gross violation of the 14th Amendment renders all subsequent actions as contestable. In any case, pardons were meant to be a means of correcting injustice and righting wrongs. It was never intended to be a means of abetting criminal activity and probably some members of the judiciary would decide the pardons were invalid. With luck, we'll find out as it's likely those for Flynn, Stone and Manafort will be challenged.

racocn8 comments on Jan 11, 2021:

Um, no, not even close. To say that it is a SPECIAL kind of stupid implies that it is low percentage. I suspect the percent is at least 5% and probably closer to 15%. Most of Trump's support comes from Evangefascists, and they are a full 40% of the population. Every one of them is delusional and could easily be persuaded of the most idiotic BS, staying loyal to Trump after 4 years. Now it is possible the word SPECIAL refers to some odd mental disability that allows the owner to be incapable of the most modest critical thinking, and thus prone to believing any bullshit given the appropriate context.

He then fell and hit his head. Frankly, I PREFER this version as it rightfully casts all the insurrectionists as dimwits like this a-hole.
