Sounds like they want a round of layoffs but don’t want to pay severance.

The primary argument against the death penalty are the sheer number of people who were executed in spite of later being found innocent.
Just because it doesn’t apply in this particular case doesn’t mean anything needs to change.
The legal system does not have 100% accuracy.
On a day when JD Vance effectively admitted to another fabrication, as well.
This not only screams BS but makes me question other similar events which seemed to have perfect timing and a nice photo op.
But then how would I get my breakfast beer? Only at an airport do you get the plausibility of being accustomed to a different time zone.
In all seriousness though, this is the classic “blame the person or the tool” argument.
I’ve seen this one. This is the one where a bunch of Republicans are like “I’m a never Trumper” and then a month later they’re all on the floor kissing his feet.
Now for extra fun: consider how different the attacks would be if Kamala Harris were a male candidate, with all other factors as close as possible (age, race, background, etc.)
You wouldn’t be hearing about how he “slept his way” to the top. You wouldn’t be hearing about how his “handlers” had to feed him information because he isn’t capable of debating on his own without prompting. You’d still be hearing a bunch of bullshit, to be sure, but it would be different bullshit.
The next time someone on the right tries to deflect or muddy the water with “bUt caN You eVeN giVe a sPecIfic eXampLe AboUt hOw tHe RePubLican party / MAGA / Trump Is seXiSt?”, all you must do is point to the kinds of lies they naturally fell into about Kamala Harris.
What those higher up in the party think of women, and what the rest have chosen to align themselves to, is on full display.
In conclusion, the results support the hypothesis that fecal knives are usually shitty knives

Good thing he gutted Twitter’s content moderation teams in the name of “free speech”, eh?
If I had a dollar for every time a billionaire loses more money than I could ever dream of because their hubris got in the way or they misunderstood a concept or were just plain dumb – well, I guess I’d be a billionaire too.
Who appoints them?
Regulators are politicians. That’s literally the point of the comment.
Did you skip over the last part of the comment?
How in the hell have the worst among us consistently been put into positions of power? These folks are an embarrassment to the country.
The US has a problem of representation. Specifically and especially since the Citizens United decision, corporate interests can easily flow money towards politicians to make them do just about anything they want. This exacerbated an existing problem with the corporate tax rate and has now brought it into laughably low territory.
That’s all an oversimplification of course, but it’s not that Americans haven’t “figured it out”. It is far more complicated than that.
This is disturbingly accurate.
Oh, I totally agree. My comment was intended more to get away from the idea that these people are simply unintelligent, which I don’t think is the case.
100% they have a responsibility to think critically. Conditioning may make that difficult, but a lack of effort would be an entirely different thing.
Regulators! Mount up.
…no, really. Do your jobs and regulate.
We need to get rid of politicians who are bought and paid for by corporations.
Trump’s achilles’ heel is pride and ego. He surrounds himself with yes-people to constantly stroke that ego.
But he isnt dumb. He must know (maybe deep down) that she got under his skin and as a result she embarrassed him on national TV.
He cannot risk any more detriment to the ego.
“But the TV said it so it’s not my fault for saying it again!”
It’s kind of like Tucker Carlson’s approach with “I’m just asking questions.” No, you’re spewing bullshit and trying to spin it as curiosity.
Welp, we’ve already seen plenty from these folks about how they would “lead”. No thanks.
How stupid has the populace become that they can’t see this high school bullshit.
