I know what you mean but JD Vance might be one of the worst VP picks ever, that's gotta bring down the average. Sarah Palin is the only comparable in my lifetime.

I genuinely don’t get how we live in the same timeline where Micheal Dukakis being so committed to his position against the death penalty (like during his debate, he said he wouldn’t advocate for it if someone raped and killed his wife) - was considered a weakness. JD has no commitment to anything and there are multiple musical remixes of him talking about how much he doesn’t like his running mate.

We executed the Rosenberg's for far less than what has occurred in the last 20 years.

The Rosenbergs were Jewish non-billionaires.

They got the lower tier legal system. Do you think Snowden or Assange would be treated differently? Maybe instead of execution, they could be sent to the concentration camp at Gitmo.

That was back when we were still a first-world nation.

Admiral Stockdale (Perot 92) should round out the podium, challenge for silver really.
