    Hold tight and resist for 2 years, the midterms will be a blue tsunami, impeach both, Jeffries for Prez, Patty for VP. Easy.

    Or rather easy to say for a Brit who will only have to live with the distant fall out of a Felon47 ‘presidency’ not the blast and shrapnel.

    Or they know exactly what he is but see him – correctly – as the only one who can get elected and they make a power grab on his coat tails.

    I am also a European and I have met only one person who has anything good to say about the Orange Felon, and he was a crazy conspiracist cab driver. EVERYONE else thinks Harris is not perfect – no politician is – but will not destroy the world and/or democracy. And might actually have been good for the world.

    The positive path I can see is 2 years of such Orange Baboon chaos and destruction, that at the midterms Dems regain Congress and impeach both the Orange Mistake and his leering sidekick and Hakeem Jeffries gets the job, as the next in line (by then) with Patty as VP. Assassination, as others have posted above, is out. No need to make a martyr of him. Of course, the GQFP might be planning to have the Orange Clown removed and you get JD.

    The Soviets – and Putin is no different – believed they did not have to attack the USA, as its own internal contradictions would destroy it from within. They were right.

    Wishing you well from the UK. There is still a small amount of hope, but not looking good.

    And the chance to actually get shot at in a real war.

    When I was applying to university in ’81 I knew people who chose Exeter University because it had the highest rate of undergraduate pregnancy. Presumably on the mistaken corrolation that a higher success rate meant there was more $ex going on. For myself, if I was using that criteria, I would go for the one with the lowest, on the assumption that as much $ex was going on but the girls – and the boys – were better at avoiding the consiquences.

    I had problems with this one even back when it came out. Guess I was a head of the times.

    Yeah, but in the books the monster was the good guy, trying to better itself and only killed its creator what he was threatened. It was only in the movies the monster became a monster.

    I actually had exactly this conversation with my niece – the nice one in her family – and her brother – not so nice – agreed with me. Things would be cheaper to buy id people were not stealing them. Probably, though corporate greed might mean they kept the price the same.

    Though they did have trust issues with me, I once spent a day successfully convincing them Darth Vader was the good guy, made the tough calls against those Rebels bent on destroying civilisation. They were young at the time.
