Do you think Obama could have said that quote from Trump above and still been sworn in the next day?

When has proving in a courtroom that Trump did something unlawful ever actually mattered?
Seems like a bunch of lawsuits waiting to happen. You know one of these toolbags is gonna point at a cis woman with a double mastectomy and baldness from chemo and be like "that's a man!" Seems like she'd have a good case.
I'm not sure why people still think the guy who, a day before he was sworn in, said "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers, those vote-counting computers, and we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So, it was pretty good, it was pretty good. So, thank you to Elon" legitimately won in a free and fair election.
What are your gun laws that have prevented mass shootings? Genuine question.
Frankly, I don't really blame people for having faith in the guardrails. Generally speaking, whenever any truly progressive legislation (often labeled as "extremism") has been pushed forward, those guardrails have come up real quick. I understand why people thought that that would hold true for extremism in any direction. But it... well, doesn't.
The genre of pop music was built off using instrumentation and song structures common in popular music, hence the name. Not sure why this is confusing, but I'm also not interested in talking to you anymore, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm not saying that all pop music is actually popular, I'm saying that the origin of the term "pop music" is "popular music".
It literally does stand for popular music.
Oh you wouldn't believe the propaganda bullshit we get taught in K-12 here. Pretty sure that's why politicians (mostly republicans, but not invariably) vilify higher education and ensure it remains prohibitively expensive; wasn't til college that I learned that a good portion of my history classes growing up had, at best, shown only the American (or, in the case of US history, the white male American) side of the story, and at worst, been almost entirely fucking fabricated. "No no no, the Civil War was about states' rights, not slavery" lookin ass. Honestly "we saved the world from Nazis because we're just such kewl dudes" isn't even the biggest bridge they sold us.
Funny, cuz lots of the ones who say "ew less than 100k listens" will also say they're not into pop music. Wondering what they think "pop" is short for lmao

Lmao, but I've found it's less about being cool and more about being firm. I've got three friends that I told very plainly "I will no longer be reachable via SMS, please use Signal". Bear in mind that 1) these are people who love me a lot, more like family than friends, and 2) I didn't try to shame them or demand they stop using SMS entirely. I just said "this is how you reach me now". All three installed Signal, and one of them now uses it as their primary method of text communication like I do.
Not saying it's easy necessarily, and I doubt this method would work for acquaintances rather than family or close friends. But every little helps, and it's a place to start.
