We have had a lot of different kinds of President in my lifetime. If someone can manage to get elected, anything that they lack can be supplied by helpers. Yeah, it is reassuring when a candidate can answer a lot of cold questions, because it demonstrates that they've thought things through...

No, he doesn't know, on account of the low IQ.

He forgot where he was, right?

At the very least, I am convinced that Trump generally doesn't know what is the truth and has been surrounded by sycophants enough of his life that he has the impression that when he shoots from the hip, his instinct is generally right. I halfway suspect he doesn't really believe "the truth" is...

I don't know to what extent Trump did it on purpose, because I'm actually pretty doubtful about his perception of truth at all, but it has been very useful to him how he has polarized truth itself. Now he can just lie. And when someone says he's lying, even when someone brings evidence, Trump...

It isn't just racist and I'm sure also classist. It's just...so stupid. Where did he think she was from?

Now THAT is amazing work. I live in Oklahoma. Walters is a disaster. But asking for $3.3 million to buy 55,000 Bibles from Donald Trump when 55,000 Bibles can be had for $140,000 from someone else is inspired. And that money just goes to Trump's business, right, not the campaign? It is just...

Jerry Moran and Roger Marshall of Kansas and Ted Budd and Thom Tills of North Carolina look like excellent picks for the cabinet.

It depends on the state. Most states the governor choose a Senate replacement. A few states require a special election. Remember, Senators were originally intended to represent the State, not the people...

I grew up with the impression that Vice Presidents often become the next President, I guess simply because of George HW Bush. But it is more common for a VP to take over because the President died than it is for them to get elected as the successor. It has been very interesting to watch all...

More likely she is just signaling collegiality, but she will probably need to figure one out. Bonus points if you can find a Republican Senator whose replacement would be chosen by a Democratic governor.

That's probably why Trump put in Republican CEOs instead.

My fear is just that the full court press causes him to win. This will be in the news for a few days and that will have some effect and until after the election it might be better to just settle for that. Next year, I think this will be a blip in all the trouble he'll be in.

Biden has to tread very carefully. If there is a big Russia investigation right now that is going to look VERY familiar to Trump's supporters.

Another one of those things. The framers were really proud of the system they invented to update our Constitution. They thought it was going to be easy. It is actually almost impossible. Without a Constitutional Amendment, it really is the truth that the Federal Government isn't supposed to...

We probably have something that would work for that. I don't use emoticons, but what I wrote wasn't sarcasm. I was asking if there were people saying that seriously.

You misunderstood what I was saying. We agree. I am trying to imagine if there are people watching the show that think Mike Johnson is right to not answer the question because the question is just exceedingly dumb. I think if I were a news show guy, I would bring these guys on and ask them...

His commitment level is pretty impressive. I wonder how it actually plays with different listeners. Are there a lot of people rolling their eyes and saying "Oh Come on, this silly thing again?"

That is a no go. He is supposedly convinced that a vast corrupt DNC machine stole an election from him and first chance he got he scooted up to try his luck again. His freedom and his self-worth are both riding on this.

I saw "Benji the Hunted" at the movie theater. My first childhood dog was named Benji, but I think he was a year older than me, named by my parents. I actually don't remember ever discussing whether he was named after the movie dog. I can still hear the mountain guy saying "You wanna show me...
