Yes, but Trump has/had been taking legal marching orders from the Federalist Society which does support a strict read, no?

Unfortunately, I’m not sure how folks in the US pull it back. The weight of money draws in so much disinformation and outright media complicity that even grassroots movements (eg. Bernie, RCV) have been safely tampered out.

I know this is probably rhetorical, but there’s probably room for further discussion. Strong overlap in the two groups with their transphobic binary gender/biological sex beliefs that is used to reinforce the “female make baby” beliefs. Also, distancing language. Hard to say if there’s room for course correction. Incel results don’t seem to deter incel thinking.

Yes, but I do wonder if he did step down would the GOP recieve the same invigoration the Dems appear to be receiving from a different contender.

Have you tried being creative?

This is an important detail often missed when discussing journalism, objectivity, bias, and, unfortunately, integrity. It’s a necessary piece of fabric that has been fraying for years. As another lemmy post some month ago put it, with the loss of the Cronkite era folks lost faith in the fourth estate. The tragedy is that the stratification of news by party and by medium is that anything right of CNN, most of the fringe blogosphere, and nearly all of the AM stations is that they are presenting opinionated hot takes as journalistic facts. Moreover, this tends to galvanize an already consitent voter base. It seems like without an emotional appeal to resisting consrvative ideologues the rhetoric and relative baseline just keep slipping.

“Our government has a [flexible] policy not to capitulate to [the oligarch that owns my debt and may, possibly have some lewd photos] demands.” - Trump quoting Patron Saint of Neoliberalism, Golden Idol of the GOP, Ronald Wilson Regan

I had no idea of this entity, but I work with enough similarly, highly nuanced public professionals that I recognize that the rapid and blind “immediately destroy all gubberment” approach will have widespread oh-holy-fuck consequenes if not just for the extensive brain vacuum potentially left in the wake of this type of growing mentality. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and perspective.
