I love how the burden of evidence is so amazingly high for Trump and Trump supporters, and so incredibly vague for Biden. My parents insist that there is "no proof" that Trump:
1. Bragged about sexually assaulting women (The tapes could have been faked!)
2. Lied about his inauguration attendance numbers (The pictures could have been faked!)
3. Had sex with Stormy Daniels (She shouldn't have broken the NDA anyway!)
4. Asked President Zelensky for a favor (WITCH HUNT!!!)
But Tucker Carlson totally had proof, but lost it? Seems legit.
I have an even bigger scoop then that. I have irrefutable proof that every Republican in D.C. is a vampire who sustains life by feasting on the blood of newborn babies, hence why they want to abolish abortion, but sadly my Canadian girlfriend took the evidence with her when she flew back home to Canada and the airline lost her bag the evidence was in.
Okay okay, that's not what the internet is for.
On topic: a Florida judge was caught having donated to Trump and therefore resigned in disgrace from a vote-counting board.
Speaking of judges, I just had another conversation with a friend of mine, who suggested that even Trump's SCOTUS picks would be, erm, "cautious" before stepping in. There's a big gap in the polls, maybe too much to close with partisan shitbaggery. Worse, if Trump's picks try to throw Trump the election, and fail, say hello to a 17-member SCOTUS. There might be some "mutually-assured destruction" style politics going on.Judge Brent Shore stepped down from his position as Duval County canvassing board chair Thursday, The Florida Times-Union reported.
Shore was reportedly an alternate for County Judge Gary Flower, the chair of the group who has been absent this week.
Shore did not resign from his duties as county judge.
Chief Judge Mark Mahon expressed confidence in Shore despite his resignation from the board, saying he "indicated he has always conducted himself fairly and impartially."
Fellow board member Michael Boylan had said Shore should resign due to the Times-Union reporting he donated to Trump's campaign a dozen times.
"It was made very clear to us in taking on the role and responsibility of the canvassing board we should avoid any appearance or actual support for any individual," Boylan said Thursday.
"Judge Shore, I think, whatever steps the administrative judge takes, to recuse himself from the process is totally appropriate for the credibility of the process," he added.
Judicial ethics rules prohibit judges from making any campaign donations.
To me, I don't mind if they do the threat of it now, but should Biden win and the Democrats take the Senate, they need to go through it and do it regardless. Be as compromising as the Republicans were the first 2 years of Trumps term. Then, at best be as compromising as they were during Obama's time in office and these last 2 years. Hold them to their own standards. You can do that without being as dirty as them. And just make sure to undo their dirty stuff while exposing it.
Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
"mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.
