so trump was openly mocking Ford at the rally tonight

cool cool
Wait, wait, correct any of what he said since I know he lies like crazy. Was any of that true? Did she really remember only having 1 beer, and that Kavanauh jumped on top of her? Is that it? She remembers nothing else? Yet, this is a lifelong traumatic event and she doesn't remember absolutely nothing else?

Or was trump being trump here?

But that's all she remembers? She doesn't remember anything before or after, where she was, what room, how she got home, etc etc?

Pretty sure is Trump being Trump you bitch.
I'll have to look this up of course since most of you tend to side Ree.

Did you not see me just ask if what Trump said was true or not? Are you this dumb?

Anyways,

Quote
Ford’s account of an alleged sexual assault by Kavanaugh when they were both teens shifted in several notable ways. At various times she has described it as occurring in the mid-1980s, the 1980s and the early 1980s. In its first bombshell report on the accusations, the Washington Post said that it had acquired “portions of” a therapist’s notes in which Ford detailed the crime; in notes from "an individual therapy session the following year," Ford makes the claim that the attack happened in her late teens, which in future claims she brought down to 15. The notes also say that “four boys were involved” in the crime, which Ford (who claims only two boys were involved) said was “an error on the therapist’s part.”

It would be very helpful for the Senate to see the therapist’s notes and compare them to her current claims. Unfortunately, Ford’s lawyers are refusing to release the notes to Congress, calling such a proposal an “unacceptable invasion of privacy.”

Ford said she didn't remember "physically showing" the Post her copy of the notes. But in its original report, the newspaper said Ford herself provided "portions" of the notes for review. If Ford was willing to give the Post some of the critical notes in some form, why not Congress, or at least the Senate Judiciary Committee?

So she doesn't recall when this whole thing happened lol and won't release the notes. lol

Quote
Ford’s details of the attack are very specific and clear in some cases, very vague in others. She is 100% certain that it was Kavanaugh who sexually assaulted her, and she remembers other little details — that she only had one beer at the party, for instance — but she cannot remember when the attack took place, or at whose house, or how she got there.

Perhaps most strikingly, Ford claims she does not remember how she got home. She says she ran out of the house after Kavanaugh assaulted her; in her testimony she told the Senate: “I do not remember [how I got home] other than I did not drive home.”

This is a significant memory lapse. If a friend gave her a ride, he or she might be an important additional witness who could perhaps corroborate some of Ford’s claims. It's at least possible  a friend would remember picking up Ford outside the party, and there’s a chance Ford might have seemed distraught enough to make the event stick out in the driver's mind. Alas, no such witness has come forward, and Ford’s memory is blank on the matter.

Wow she truly does not remember fucking shit. lol Not even how she got home? really??? I'd say ok if she was drugged or if she drank too much but she was sober.

Not only that she ends up seeing one of the attackers (according to her) a week or so later and says hello to him perfectly fine.... hm, ok? Apparently all these years later this became very tragic to her. yeahhhhhhhh.

So, basically what Trump is saying is actually true lol. God damn.

Like, wow, this woman was THAT shaken from an event that took place so long ago, you'd think it was such a huge moment in her life by how she acted 'on stage'. LoL, yet she recalls practically NOTHING. COME ON.

I have been absolutely blasted, I mean blasted, and I recall more than her from those nights.

Today my boss asked me what I did today at work and I couldn't remember a single thing despite being busy the whole time so, yeah, the brain sucks, not a surprise to me
I wonder if 30+ years from now you'll remember this day like she did. Hysterically.

Be real for a second

do you think this is anything other than a political witch hunt? You know that's what it is right? It's the dems getting back at the reps for not allowing Obama his pick. It's dirty politics.

As long as you know that we're good. No need to pretend this woman was forever traumatized by any of whatever she does or does not remember happening.

Of course this shitstorm is political motivated you stupid asshole. The problem is that is pretty clear she is traumatized by this stuff (because people actually watched the hearing) and Kavanaugh is acting like Trump when he lies.

You also need to be honest and stop pretending you cannot see why people are not exactly excited of having a SCOTUS that rants about beer and “democrats” or people are not exactly feeling sorry for a political party that is famous for dirty politics and propaganda.

Stop being such a vile asshole in your trolling act.

All the accusations are as bad as that. Read up on the Ramirez accusations as well, you'll see.

That said, I am not going to draw conclusions without, you know, concrete evidence. I will reserve judgement until we get a clearer picture.

The accusations are hazy to say the least. Kavanaughs testimony has problems. There is an on going FBI investigation. I don't see why I should take a side without having good evidence either way, or at least wait until the FBI investigation is over.

I've been around that white rich male privilege growing up. I played a lot of varsity/prep school team sports. Believe me I know how obnoxious and fucked up it can be. But 17 year olds doing stupid ass shit is not an exclusive club for rich kids, everyone does stupid stuff at 17.

I actually don't believe you. (Ironic given the subject.)

The hallmark of privileged private education--the thing that parents pay for after ensuring their children have unearned connections for life--is that the authorities are only involved when there is absolutely no other recourse and even when that happens there is a general understanding that names will be kept off the record as much as possible.

A system where punishment is fairly toothless, and often borne by people who didn't do the bad act (e.g. it was a not uncommon thing at my private high school for delinquent individuals to be "punished" by having their tuition raised), does not make for the same kind of bad behavior trajectory as kids who grow up in overpoliced environments.

Why should I feel sorry for Kavanaugh while trying to be a SCOTUS and being okay in spouting rethoric from Trump ass.

Who gives a fuck if she's traumatized? She puts on a show and that's all that matters to you? That doesn't mean she was raped, it may not even mean what happened is the way she remembers it considering she doesn't remember anything else from the night.

What am I pretending? How many times do I have to repeat that I don't want him to win, that I don't like him at all?? I'm pretty sure I even put it in bold letters.

I was mainly talking about that cringe scene in the elevator with that protester to begin with.

And I'm saying kids who are 17 and have spent their lives in elite private schools have been socialized for years to understand that their actions don't have much in the way of consequences. Do people who have no concept of consequence behave similarly to those that do? You're saying A = A and I'm saying 2 > 1.

I wouldn't totally agree with that but then again I don't think I ever dealt with Kavanauh level of privilege in my teens, yet I still saw his type of behavior amongst teens no where close to it.   :yeshrug

The fact that he put that 'Renate Alumnus' thing in the yearbook is a good example of this.  17-year olds know that yearbooks are memorial and exist for posterity.  That is a kid who doesn't give a shit about consequences.

Quote
In a 1983 letter, a copy of which was reviewed by The New York Times, the young Judge Kavanaugh warned his friends of the danger of eviction from an Ocean City, Md., condo. In a neatly written postscript, he added: Whoever arrived first at the condo should “warn the neighbors that we’re loud, obnoxious drunks with prolific pukers among us. Advise them to go about 30 miles...”

McConnell: "Thank you Mr. President for all your support to get this nomination done. We really appreciate what you've done and the answers you've given to the press. Perhaps at the rally tonight you could say a few encouraging words for judge Kavanaugh to convince the last few hold outs among our senators."

Trump: "Thank you very much Mitch. Sure, I think I can say a few nice words about the judge. Don't worry, I'll be very respectful"

McConnell: "Wonderful Donald, I think we've really turned over a new leaf here in terms of aligning our communication with that of yourself and the administration."

They’re probably kind of right, but not because Musk is a great ceo, but because he is such a bad one and Tesla is so over-valued.

A more traditional CEO will cause the street to evaluate Tesla using common sense and the same rules applied to other companies, and their stock would crash.

I don't care about that so much as the economist galaxy brain "fines are paid out of funds that would have gone to shareholders so they're bad" take. That might supplant "minimum wage increases distort prices so they're bad" or "antitrust law is solely about protecting consumers" on my top takes table depending on how often it is used to exempt entities and officers from the (actual) rule of law.
how about "it would be terrible for the future of all EVs"? http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/elon-musk-sec-settlement/?utm_source=kw_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2018-10-02

I think that’s kind of nonsense.

EVs have caught on enough that Tesla doesn’t even make the best selling EV.

Edit; mostly because of production issues but the Chevy bolt is production constrained as well.

That being said, the sitting president even offering an opinion on an individual sexual assault "case" is inappropriate to begin with, but him mocking the alleged victim in public to a cheering room is so far beyond the pale of normalcy that there aren't enough clap emojis and caps locks to express how unpresidential that is.
Trump was probably mad that Kavanaugh was dominating the air waves and felt he had to step up his game to get back into the press.

unpresidential..... you guys are funny.

Bannon was on Bill Maher recently saying there's no way back from Trump. The next President will also come from TV, as he said he thinks Oprah would be a possible candidate for the dems. This is the medias fault, the garbage media and pop culture most of you bite into and now you want to blame everyone else but yourselves for this nonsense.

You sit here poo pooing over some woman's traumatic outburst and show on national television and then rip Trump for saying what everyone else was actually thinking? lol the woman can't remember shit but she's traumatized? lol

Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn you guys are too much

You guys don't get it. While social media creates the illusion of connecting us, the pressures of a status-driven system quantified by engagement metrics is a driving force for alienation, and it's only going to get worse.

I learned this from Danielle Bregoli's Instagram story where she posted a black screen with the text "fed up with these fake friends" followed by the "100" and toenail paint emojis.

So who will play Steve Bannon in the movie. I'm thinking John Goodman but he could also be picked to play Trump himself.
Maybe Josh Brolin?

Patton Oswalt
Good choice as well but he could also play Sean Spicer.

Too bad Kenneth MacMillan passd away, he'd be a perfect Bannon.

That's actually an amazing post.

Bemoan the rot of America's culture that stems from our reliance on shallow and glib infotainment media, and do so by quoting Steve Bannon on Bill Maher's show.

 :ohhh
Ah yes the ReeRee mentality of all or nothing. Since Bill Maher is on Tv, and at times plays into the bolden text, he must always be that and everything on the show is that.

The ironic part is that Maher went nuts over this Ford thing, and is totally echoing the same sentiments that you morons are. But of course since the new liberal narrative is to hate Maher, him and his show must be fully discredit or you aren't liberal enough  :doge

it's too much  :lol

It's not that deep, man.

If we can't get jokes off on the star of Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, what have we become?

This is some crazy shit. Some woman has fun posing as hacker Guccifer2 for the lulz on Twitter and then gets visited by the FBI as part of Muellers investigation.  :doge

I just remember that Shannon was the guy that had  World of Warcraft gold farming operation, so I dunno if I would say he is a reliable source of political and media commentary.

Why did they delete the 'original'. What context. He was being an ass. The context doesn't make it any better.  :doge

Graham's whatabouting there. It's a James Carville quote on the subject of Gennifer Flowers.

Still not a good look.
