flu, by your recent posts on this thread and others, you seem to the reader to be developing a chip on your shoulder as it applies to the Trump candidacy where there shouldn’t be. That’s on you … NOT Trump. Maybe you, too, SK. [/quote]
I have absolutely no idea what you mean by this. Do I think Trump is a horrible candidate? Absolutely. Do I think every single person who supports him is a complete idiot? Absolutely. The worst candidate in my lifetime from either major party. Worse by an order of magnitude. For a dozen or more reasons. His lack of experience. His lack of the right temperament. His ignorance of the law. His lack of ideas. His lack of curiosity. His disdain for knowledge. His bullying tactics. His racism. His misogyny. His lack of respect for the office. His lack of respect for the press. There’s a dozen I typed without hesitation in a minute or so. But a chip on my shoulder? It’s hardly necessary for me to be critical of his candidacy.[/quote]
Your (bolded) statement is indicative of you “developing a chip on your shoulder,” imho. You could easily find yourself surrounded by “complete idiots” in the space of just a very few days to a few months. Methinks that’s a limiting posture to take and could severely limit your day to day activities and the people you associate with. But if that kind of life suits you, far be it from me to judge.[/quote]
I didn’t bold any words. You did. In my not the least bit humble opinion, the words mean exactly what they say. And your bolding them, and describing them as you have, are indicative, (again, in my not the least bit humble opinion) of you having no clue what “chip on your shoulder” means.
I think the likelihood of Trump winning is miniscule. But that said, I’ve survived just fine, being surrounded by 30% of the population that:
A: Think gay people choose to be gay
B: Think the bible is the literal word of god
C: Think evolution never happened
D: Think global warming isn’t happening or isn’t the result of human action
E: Can’t find the pacific ocean on a map
F: Think Fox News is actually news
Thanks for your concern.[/quote]
Wow, SK, I’ve noticed over the years that plenty of “zonies” know how to find Pacific Beach (SD) just fine. I’m disappointed to hear that your peeps in AZ are as “unenlightened” and ignorant as you say they are.
[quote=SK in CV]BTW, exactly what policy of Trump’s that he’s actually presented for, is it that you like? Can you point me to the actual plan?[/quote]I’d love to discuss this with you, but I’ve asked you already 2-3 times on the “Everything Hillary” thread how long YOU think it will take for a (yet unfiled) Federal District Court civil rights case to wind its way to the Supreme Court, get accepted, get heard and obtain an opinion. You can start with a case from our very own (ultra-crowded calendar) CASD/9th Circuit and post your response over there.
If I understood you correctly on the “Everything Hillary” thread, you stated that there are 4 SC justices left (exclusive of J. Ginsburg) who would support women’s issues:
However, two of them are 78 and 79 years old but as far as you know, they don’t have any major health issues as of the present.
I don’t see the urgency that you do re: stacking the panel with the “right” justices to support women’s issues when there doesn’t seem to be any relevant cases currently in the pipeline anywhere in the country which the Supreme Court might be interested in hearing. I see Trump being allowed to replace Scalia and Ginsburg, which I’ll explain further in that thread. As I stated before, he may be out of office by January 2021 (at the age of 74) should he become our next POTUS. And Trump has stated publicly several times that he cares very much about women’s health issues.
I haven’t yet had the chance to research the names on Trump’s “SC nominee” list but I suspect that up to half of them are actually “moderates” and IIRC, at least two of them were women.
As far as “birth control” and early term abortion ever being outlawed, I just don’t see that constellation.
