If he violated immigration law, would that mean that his citizenship was granted on false grounds?

Because they think that he will hurt people that they’ve been led to hate.

It shouldn’t mean lower prices; deflation is bad, we just want a low rate of inflation. What we do want is for wages to outpace that, and for the past couple of years, they have for people at the lower end of the scale (which is also good)

It’s a really interesting test of how much conventional campaigning and turnout strategies really matter nowadays.

Quite a bit of what we do is because “we’ve always done it this way,” and there’s surprisingly little data on what actually makes a difference in an election at this level where both of the candidates are universally known.

I’d start by assuming that he’s either being paid somehow for suddenly supporting TikTok or if there’s something else in it for him. With trump, usually “it’s grift” is the likely explanation for many things.

Fedora is the best thing ever to be in the world 🌎

Of course, but I don’t think that him as the VP candidate changes the odds of that much relative to the other contenders who don’t come with that risk.

VP candidates don’t usually matter much in an election unless they’re freaks with a couch fetish or something weird like that.

Assuming Harris wins, the first midterm federal election is usually ugly for the president’s party, so it’d be a risk. Especially coming off of this election where dems will have to be extremely lucky just to hold onto the majority (even with the vp tiebreaker).

Not hard to have “unity” when they’ve worked to purge anyone from the party who disagreed with the cult.

Practice?

If Biden drops out of the race, the candidate would be Harris. He’d resign, endorse Harris, and it’d get confirmed at the convention. The only “fresh new, younger face” would be the VP pick.

I’m not saying that’s a problem, but the idea that that an open floor battle at the convention would be a good idea is nuts, and just discarding the sitting VP like that would probably shatter the democratic coalition.

Ahem, Bush v Gore… bit longer than a decade. They’re certainly more shameless now that they have a larger margin, but republican justices have been pushing an agenda for awhile.

Smart cars had to pass US crash test standards and have the appropriate safety equipment. The kei trucks that you can currently import and use are 25+ years old and wouldn’t have even passed US standards back then. Your legs are the crumple zone in these things.

I assume that new ones would have a chance, but it’d be expensive for a manufacturer to modify and certify for the US market. Small cars haven’t sold well here, and the profit margins are slim.

Maybe with the recent size and price increases in autos here, well see some movement. I’d love a modern Honda kei to go with my element.

They’re not silly at all, they’re thugs. They want to influence the next one by showing the cost of going against them.

Now, we’re lucky that they’re mostly grifting, incompetent, blustery cowards, so the risk isn’t what it could be.

Gosh, you mean that he’s playing by the rules that the republicans have put in place and not unilaterally disarming? How scandalous.

They should flush the entire “money is speech” concept, but until we can replace most of the SC with people who don’t suck, we work with what we got.

Oddly, sort of related to some of these same complainers sitting out 2016. Weird how elections can have consequences.

Except they’re dead against any adversary with remotely modern air defenses… or 5th, 4th, and likely 3rd Gen fighters if they’re around. They’re amazing at fighting targets that can’t shoot back though.
