    Maybe in his ear piece somebody told him that Sinead O'Connor just died. He walked back in to the press conference a little later.

    But, I support term and age limits.

    3rd Party?

    [​IMG]

    You may get your wish if Trump loses the primary or dumped by the party for his ongoing prosecutions he will 100% run 3rd party to spite them/stroke his ego. Means Biden would be guaranteed a 2nd term.

    These "throwing my vote away" arguments don't mean a whole lot when the choice is between someone with multiple looming indictments or someone with the cognitive ability or a bowl of Jello. Nothing ever really gets better, so why should I expect it to? I won't vote for Trump, but whoever another third party or random write-in will do just fine. If that contributes to electing of the major parties by default, oh well.

    So when everyone's least favorite ninja turtle dies, who will take his place as head of the Senate Republicans?

    Feinstein isn't making any decisions at all anymore, but the LA machine is already lining up behind Schiff and the SF machine behind Lee. Feinstein's corpse is not getting reelected.

    I thought it looked kinda like he had an absent seizure as well. Maybe a medication side effect? He would have been immediately fine.

    Me, too.

    I’m not picking on you in particular, but we have term limits. It’s called voting. Everyone says they agree with term limits and age limits, and then 99.9% (embellished statistics for effect) of those people vote for the same people over and over again.

    It's complicated. I think campaign finance reform would be a more effective angle but I've got a bridge to sell you if you think that has a hope of ever happening.

    It would be perfect to see a hand come into frame and hold salts under his face “…..mmmph OH! KILL ALL THE BLAC… ahem… where was I?”

    Babylon Bee's take was pretty funny.

    The state party certainly doesn't want her to have one, no. Seniority wise she's behind the other two, and tactically she holds a district that the Democrats would have a very tough time winning without her, whereas Lee and Schiff's districts than can slot in a young Democrat really easily.

    If you look and act like that, just die. What is the point of doing anything anymore?

    Could be worse - could be Diane Feinstein who had to be told how to vote today. I thought the line would have been Fetterman after he spent weeks in an insane asylum. But nah, now we're plowing ahead with corpses that happen to still have a heartbeat.
