Yep
Crazy! Madness! Lunacy and hypocrisy 🙄
Cultural outrage? It's like you don't even know what words and phrases mean.
If it helps, an example of cultural outrage would be saying you would never again buy food from a Chinese takeaway or restaurant because of what they did at the start of the Covid epidemic (though there are other words and phrases that can be used for this kind of thinking).
It is possible that people will look at things in a different light after a particularly polarising figure like Trump departs particularly if the regime that follows starts correcting the damage that individual has done to the environment, race relations, engagement with allies and enemies and wealth distribution without a hint of the hypocrisy you serve up when talking about anti-semitism given your back catalogue on race.

Re: The Donald Trump thread
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...election-polls
One hundred days before the presidential election, Joe Biden has built a commanding and enduring lead over Donald Trump, whose path to victory has narrowed considerably in the months since the coronavirus pandemic began.
The president’s fortunes appear increasingly tied to the trajectory of a public health crisis he has failed to contain, with the death toll past 145,000 and the economy in turmoil.
A Washington Post-ABC News poll this month showed Biden far ahead of Trump, 55% to 40% among registered voters. That contrasted with March, when Biden and Trump were locked in a near tie as the virus was just beginning to spread.
The same poll found Trump’s approval ratings had crumbled to 39%, roughly the same share of the electorate that approved of his response to the outbreak while 60% disapproved. Especially troubling for the president are a new spate of polls that suggest he is losing his edge on the economy, formerly Biden’s greatest vulnerability.
....
Surveys show Biden ahead in a clutch of battleground states that secured Trump’s victory in 2016, including Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan. A Quinnipiac University poll of Florida, seen as crucial for Trump, found Biden up by 13 points.
Biden’s campaign is now eyeing an expanded electoral map that could also deliver control of the Senate, challenging Trump in traditionally Republican states like Arizona, where the president has consistently led in statewide polls, as well as in conservative strongholds like Texas, where a new Quinnipiac poll found the candidates neck-and-neck.

You do have to wonder what constituency beyond his 40% base he is reaching out to if he thinks slagging off the Ronald Reagan Foundation is the best way to go!

it's a bit of a Catch-22 for him. He has spent most of his media time over the last few years in a safe Fox opinion bubble with people like Hannity ,Lou Dobbs and Fox and Friends serving up softball interviews.
To win he needs to reach out beyond his base so he has done a few interviews with what some call MSM channels including the Fox News arm. He seems unprepared for challenge and pushback when he goes into bullshit/lie mode which can't help with the part of the electorate he is targeting.
That said, Biden seems to be running a "let Trump lose it" campaign which can't be sustainable for ever. Presume this will change a little when he announces his VP running mate. Conversely Biden's team may have noticed how Boris Johnson was effectively hidden from 1-2-1 media scrutiny when he was election favourite and they think that this could work for them

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Does anyone have any ideas why Trump would repeatedly say that he wishes G Maxwell well and that her boyfriend was killed or commited suicide in prison?
It sounds a bit like something a mob boss would say to silence a witness. Anyone have any theories on why he's so keen to pass on this message?

Yes, to observers that don't play 24D chess like Trump, it almost looks like he's giving her the option of mouth shut and a pardon or commuted sentence like Roger Stone, or a late night visitor to her cell with a syringe!
But Donald's a nice guy, he just wishes her well. That's all.

Steele did not personally collect any of the factual information in his reports. The “vast network” was instead a “social circle” of an American-based former Brookings Institute junior staffer, recently identified for the first time as Igor Danchenko. The friends didn’t have well-documented claims so much as rumors, drunken gossip, and outright brainstorming, conjecture, and speculation. Even that information was “multiple layers of hearsay upon hearsay” before it got to Steele, who then hyperbolically overstated it. And the damning claims of “collusion” appear to have been scandalously misattributed or invented out of whole cloth.
With such shoddy information collection and analysis methods, there was never any reason to give credence to any of the salacious allegations in the dossier, whether it was claims of secret deals with Russian oil concerns, secret meetings in foreign capitals, prostitutes urinating on Moscow hotel room beds, files of compromising information, or the careful cultivation of Trump, yes Trump, into the most effective Russian agent in history.

Re: The Donald Trump thread
One of Trump's key constituencies under attack (at last):
New York attorney general Letitia James is seeking to dissolve the NRA after an investigation by her office uncovered “years of self-dealing and illegal conduct,” the Democratic official said.
“The NRA’s influence has been so powerful that the organization went unchecked for decades while top executives funneled millions into their own pockets,” James said in a statement.
“The NRA is fraught with fraud and abuse, which is why, today, we seek to dissolve the NRA, because no organization is above the law.”
NY AG James @NewYorkStateAG
#BREAKING: I filed a lawsuit to dissolve the National Rifle Association for years of self-dealing and illegal conduct.
The @NRA is fraught with fraud and abuse. No organization is above the law.
4:37 PM · Aug 6, 2020
The Washington Post has more on the lawsuit:
In her lawsuit, Attorney General Letitia James called for the dissolution of the NRA and the removal of CEO Wayne LaPierre from the leadership post he has held for the past 39 years, saying he and others used the group’s funds to finance a luxury lifestyle.
She also asked a New York court to force LaPierre and three key deputies to repay NRA members for the ill-gotten funds and inflated salaries that her investigation found they took.
James accused the NRA leaders of flouting state and federal laws and signing off on reports and statements they knew were fraudulent, while diverting millions of dollars away from the NRA’s charitable mission to benefit themselves and their allies.
