Wow, that is both insightful and a major burn.

He is a human being.

I have real trouble with this. He seems to lack any kind of human qualities - no empathy, no wit or warmth.

If someone ripped his orange mask off, Scooby Doo style, and it revealed some kind of mindless racist/sexist slur and weak-insult spouting robot underneath, I think it would explain a lot.

Inflation may be slowing, but prices haven't gone back down to where they were, so things don't feel better than when inflation was high.

They never will. Lower inflation means that prices are rising at a slower rate now, but still rising. Prices going down would be deflation, which most economic theory says would be a complete disaster.

Same in the UK. I went with a bacterial infection a few weeks ago. It cost £0 for the Dr appointment and £9 for the antibiotics.

Another data point. I was taught critical thinking, particularly as it pertains to news sources as part of GCSE English - in 1987 at a normal comprehensive school in a fairly deprived area. Maybe the problem is that you can lead a horse to water etc.

"Oh, even if Harris wins they’ll just attempt a coup again!"and it’s like OK, and? Your solution to them stealing an election is to let them win it legitimately instead?

My solution would have been to lock them up for trying to steal the last one.

Amazing how fast the US justice system can move when the defendant isn't Donald fucking Trump.

I don't think being interested in other people makes you racist.

Is election interference not a crime in the US?

Lying liar tells lies. What a surprise.

If I understood the ruling correctly, that "immunity" is the supreme court saying the president is immune for "official acts" - and they get to decide what those are. This is not immunity for Biden, it's a fascist coup happening in slow motion.
