Thomas and Alito would surely vote to give election to Trump. Gorsuch, who was wrongly thought when nominated to be an institutionailst, probably. Three Democratic appointees would uphold election. Barrett has shown rare independence. Roberts was appointed as reward for his fight against voting rights. Barrett, Roberts, Kavanaugh all involved in Bush v Gore on Bush side.
Whether American democracy survives could be decided by Roberts, Kavanaugh and Barrett. Scary thought.

Scary indeed.

It's cool. We need only rely on nine humans with immense power to throw the ring of ultimate evil into the fire when the time comes. There's no way 5 of them would be corrupted by such power, right?

Bizarre moment Trump says ‘beautiful’ Kamala Harris looks like wife Melania in Elon Musk X interview
‘I saw a picture of her on Time Magazine today. She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live,’ the former president said of his presidential rival


Donald Trump bizarrely said that his Democratic presidential rival Kamala Harris looks like his wife Melania Trump in his rambling interview with Elon Musk on Monday night.

The former president joined the tech billionaire on X Spaces for what was billed as a game changing “conversation,” but actually ended up being a more than two-hour-long very friendly interview that was instantly beset with tech problems – not to mention questions about Trump’s apparent lisp.


In the interview, Trump launched into a scathing critique of Harris calling her a “terrible” leader, before he swiftly drifted to fawning over her “beautiful” appearance.


“We need smart people, and people that have the ability to lead. She doesn’t have that ability. Can you imagine her with chairman Xi [Jinpin, President of the People’s Republic of China],” he said, speaking with a distinct lisp.

Musk, who remained agreeable throughout the two-hour interview, admitted that it “would be silly”.

“She is terrible, she is terrible,” Trump doubled down. “She’s getting a free ride.”

The former president then abruptly segwayed into talking about Harris’s looks, drawing comparison between her and the former first lady.

“I saw a picture of her on Time Magazine today. She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live,” Trump said of Harris, referring to the latest edition of Time Magazine, which brands Harris’s campaign as “the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history.”

“She looked very much like our great first lady, Melania,” Trump gushed as Musk met his comment with an awkward chuckle and a reserved, “yeah…”


“She didn’t look like Camilla,” Trump said, purposely butchering Harris’ name. “Of course, she’s a beautiful woman and we’ll leave it at that.”

“Right… well yeah, well, you know,” Musk said, before scrambling to change the subject and entering into a monologue about the American dream.

What is the deeper meaning of this tweet, exactly? She’s presenting two facts as if we are supposed to just take it for granted that they are mutually exclusive, but she fails to actually make any point or prove how they are.

Well, if the argument is that you can't succeed in California under Democratic leadership... Musk proves that is not the case. As have many others including Bill Gates with Washington, and Jeff Bezos, also with Washington... Phil Knight here in Beaverton. Really, the list goes on.

If the argument is that less regulation in Republican controlled areas are more friendly to the established wealthy elite... Elon musk has also indicated by his actions that that may in fact be the case.

There is no proof needed. She made no claims, other than stating the verifiable facts of what actually happened.

You simply filled in the blanks according to your own political bend though. You inserted your own strawman argument nobody tried to make, then proceeded to explain it in detail. That woman was obviously asserting that Musk was in a slump as a result of relocation, but there’s nothing to actually suggest that.

Oh hey did you see the Nike thread, by the way?

But people do make those arguments all the time. Musk himself has engaged.

She is clearly making a post in response to those arguments.

I did see the Nike thread. It also supports what I've been saying for years. I appreciate you noticing that.

Nike going down the shitter in a Dem state supports your assertion that companies are doing great in Dem states?

Don't forget Apple. Genentech. Hewlett-Packard. Google. Just a few that got started on California.

Nike became the largest athletic wear company in the world in a Dem state.

Every company stumbles. Nothing lasts forever.

And no company can survive trying to be environmentally responsible when their competitors are not doing so. You simply can't compete. That requires government regulation.

Nike was founded at a time when Oregon had back to back Republican governors, and subsequent ones before and after that. Hardly a “Dem state” in the hardline sense it has been in modern times, when you guys decided to let the inmates run the asylum and, coincidentally, Nike has begun to slip in this era along with other businesses.
