That video which came out [recently?] taken from a Navy ship was certainly interesting: their IR cameras detected something hovering above the water. After tracking it for some time, it just disappears. Doesn't necessarily mean it's aliens, but it certainly isn't the Russians.

My advice, don't watch this. The most embarrassing thing in that video is his beard.

Based on my, admittedly limited, knowledge, that could be attributed to Parkinson's. Freezing is a symptom.

Oh dear. The perils of a gerontocracy. Is it Dianne Feinstein on the Democrats who was being urged to step down due to age/illness and subsequent lack of attendance?

Yeah and her team just enabled her obviously for their own machinations. But yeah there's a very strong case for age limits on governing here, fuck the hand wringing cry of ageism.

He's still leading the race for the Republican nomination by a country mile, and none of the convictions are likely to be resolved by the time the election comes around.
So look forward to that, it's going to be a fun 2024.

The problem lies with AG Garland, who refused to touch Trump and his cronies for over a year in a misguided attempt to appear non-partisan after four years of Trump brazenly using the DOJ to try and take down his political enemies (there absolutely was a weaponization of the government, just not in the way Republicans would have you believe). It took the January 6th hearings and the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago to finally make Garland say "herp derp maybe we should do something about this guy".

Ehhh, it's not like federal prosecutions are normally speedy affairs. To me it's more likely that it just took them that long to gather all the evidence and go through all the hoops and such.

Well yeah, dithering is par for the course. Which doesn't make it ok, but it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

The point is, it didn't have to be this way. DOJ's lack of action is a big part of why this is now such a clusterfuck.

If they do, I can see it being the thing that pushes a lot of the world away from the US. Once was silly but twice, in a decade, could make countries just consider whether it's worth the continued effort.

Trumpalump would love that tbh. No need to help “shit-hole” nations.

If Trump gets re-elected I wouldn't bet on the United States of America lasting too much longer afterwards.

How are they going to summon a Jury? Politics seems to be so bi-partisan there that it’s would seem impossible to remove yourself from the case and your feelings towards it.
In a normal world everyone would see the clear intent in trying to overthrow the election result but this isn’t a normal world.

The simple answer is that the divisions are still extreme vocal minorities. The vast majority of people aren’t that weird, but seeing it through a lens of right wing tweets and Jordan Klepper TikToks gives a distorted view. Most of the people I know here are staunch R’s who really want Trump to go away. Yeah, there’s a couple of true MAGAs I’ve run into here and there, but it’s by far the exception.

Sure, I've a similar experience with work colleagues. On the other hand, he is the favourite by a mile for the nomination and will get close to 50% of the vote regardless. So some (a lot) of the Rs that want Trump to go away still vote for the cunt. So fuck them really.
