Trump has taught the red team anyone can be an expert

True, but you taught Trump that first.

[pgardn]

True, but you taught Trump that first.

Sure.

Over 3000 lawsuits BEFORE he was President.
But Yeah, we taught him about breaking the law for sure...

“Conservative” is just a label. It has nothing to do with American conservatism, a political tradition rooted in the writings of Edmund Burke in Britain, and carried forth through the Republican Party through leaders such as Calvin Coolidge, Barry Goldwater, and Ronald Reagan, and through activists such as William F. Buckley. It stood in contrast to the right-wing populism and nativism rooted in the Know-Nothing movement of the 1800’s, the Red Scare, the John Birch Society, and today’s ascendant Trumpism that now owns the GOP.

So I guess we are “libs” now because the classical liberal tradition has the syllable “lib” in it. Maybe 10% of the country is actually conservative now, and half of those are willing to try to ride the fascist tiger to get low taxes and less regulation, hoping their faces won’t get eaten.

Meh Reagan would be right at home in today's GOP and to argue otherwise is to completely whitewash his legacy. The idea that the man who went to give a famous speech about states rights in a campaign stop in Philadelphia, MS, the town famous for their police murdering a couple of Jews and a nigra who had the audacity to help register black people to vote ~15 years before, was not a nativist is hilariously laughable. You can't tell me this talk from Reagan's former political director wouldn't be mainstream GOP today.



Trump followed very much in Reagan's footsteps. , Reagan is the one who first delivered the white evangelical bags that are Trump's base.

Right, "conservative" is just the tribal designation. These aren't thinking people with self-formed convictions. Their entire iden y is "oppose the libs."

Individual consumption can nibble at the edges, but collective public strategies are needed here, hence the we.

yep, cement, steel, agriculture, airlines, buildings, oil/gas, US military, are the biggest polluters.

Biden + Dems operate government in good faith, while the Repugs are pure bad faith, try to weaken, destroy the Exec branch, and independent agencies.

Eh, Dems got some problems but just a whole lot less. I can't ever imagine myself voting Republican based on the show clowns and policies they continually crank out year after year.

I mean, a cranky old TV personality former billionaire is who these people rally around because he holds up his hotel bible for a photo op. If it wasn't destroying our country, it'd be hilarious.

We really are going to beat the record this year aren't we? Despite a reasonable May and a nice first week of June.

But it was jake when he got sworn and on the ride over to the White House your side threatened to blow up the White House?

This country was ruined because Trump made President. You weren't gonna have it.

"so the people who do these studies for a living"

Yep, there's the payoff.

Experts must be on the take.
Even the Scientists with big oil who predicted warming and consequences.
Yeah that’s some debilitating paranoia above.

I see what you are saying but instead of trying to preserve the 1950s like those you mentioned, the current conservative wants to go back to the 1980s.

You could win a presidential election by putting a scary black man on television, dismantle organized labor, rebrand the racist bag southern democrats as GOP, and have the failure of supply side economics be ignored and pretend the economic instability of the 1980s was a golden age.

The Birch society stuff has definitely been a constant the whole time.

Winter heat wave in South America

JFC that's alarming to see in the height of winter

[ChumpDumper]

It's just summer libs, get a grip.

You called a million dead Americans the sniffles.

You're going to vote for Trump again.

Nobody could possibly take you seriously.

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah ya'll are ridin with Biden because muh convictions

It's better than your having no morals or beliefs at all.

[Spurminator]

Yeah ya'll are ridin with Biden because muh convictions

I mean, yeah? I agree with enough of his positions to vote for him over most Republicans, particularly one who tries to upend the system by throwing psychotic tantrums when he loses.

I think you're getting worse at trolling somehow, try quality over quan y for a while.

History says it’s asteroids and other large objects that have hit the earth and apparently your head as well.

when you are dead and gone the rest of us will notice a huge change in the composition of the oceans and land’s sediment deposits. Brand new compounds not found anywhere else in the universe will show up in sediment…
Wonder where these new compounds came from? Have you ever heard of plastic? Our impact on the planet is enormous. We know this. The very hottest temperature anywhere in the universe are produced by us right here on earth in labs. We have rammed particles together in a way that happens nowhere else in nature. What other species on Earth can knowingly make itself extinct in an instant of geological time?

Clueless red team.

Yes it will all reach a unique group of life on earth after we are extinct. Evolution will continue working on new species. Take comfort. It’s God’s will. We just don’t have control over anything. It’s God’s plan. Right?
fkn idiots…

Ihave to concede your disingenuous and obtuse (purposeful I am sure)point that 65 million years ago an event occurred that individuallyout-did the effects of each of the tens of thousands volcanoeruptions (prolly more I just do not know for sure) since then. Allin an effort to win one for your team.


Thetopic is the most recent alarming hot summer temps. I threw out anopinion that is not mine but that supposed by NASA officials that aneruption may be affecting temps short term. The eruption near Tongawas the greatest since Krakatoa. It is well known that similarevents in recent do ented human history has affectedtemperatures-in both directions.


Itis also well do ented that the Sun's intensity has waxed and wanedover the many years and to my knowledge has not significantly wanedand some think has increased in intensity and is contributing torecent temps.


Sogood for you for going back 65 million years to get one over on theevil righty.

Things hitting the Earth did not all happen all at once 65 million years ago.
That happened to be one that caused mass extinctions. Its NOT the only one.

Where did you get that opinion?
