I researched and wrote an essay (in part) on the WI Supreme Court, which hasn't been published, but one thing I found out: the conservatives and liberals REALLY dislike each other.
Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Rebecca Bradley on Crawford: "I think the way Judge Crawford ran her race was disgusting...I'm not looking forward to working with her. She's bought and paid for by the Democratic Party."

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.
And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

The most infuriating part of this is that he didn’t even hide that he’d do this. He screamed it every chance he got. For years.
And people… they just voted for it.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Can’t help but feel that if President Bernie Sanders pulled this move the entirety of American business would try to get him pushed out of office immediately.

Literally the opposite of what the president said is true. High tariffs CAUSED the Great Depression.
This is embarrassing.

the thing about chasing what you think is public opinion is that if and when things turn you will have made a bunch of statements and taken a bunch of stances that you’ll have to disavow. probably a better strategy just to say what you actually believe and stand by it. anyway, this guy sucks.
