Bloomberg is "running" but given that he skips all of the media stuff and is explicitly targeting Trump and vulnerable GOP Senators with ads, it's seeming much more like the campaign is pretense.
Pompeo goes ape shit at NPR reporter after being questioned about Ukraine.

Seen a lot of those types of interviews where the sentiment is that because they're balanced, fair, and open-minded individuals the best idea is to always vote for the other party every cycle. Because there must be balance. I feel if you dissect those people's views it would reveal a black hole of ignorance about history and politics.Listening to the Sun Belt Romney-Clinton voters surveyed in this week's The Wilderness is quite sobering and very maddening. One woman who says she's voted almost evenly between Democratic and Republican presidents her whole life. Like what the fuck...lady, you're tearing the country apart!
Qualifying poll recap:
-Fox national (confirmed Sunday)
-CBS/YouGov Battleground Tracker (possible early states on Sunday)
-UNH/CNN NH (coming soon)
-Marist NH (possibly with NBC, coming soon)
-ABC/WaPo national (possibly coming soon)
-Quinnipiac is also probably due next week
I know, it drives me crazy. It's also the reason I keep seeing Republican governors despite living in blue states all my life.Seen a lot of those types of interviews where the sentiment is that because they're balanced, fair, and open-minded individuals the best idea is to always vote for the other party every cycle.

Could you imagine Trump having to deal with a space colonist independence movement like Zeon? He probably would've gassed the colonists at Side 2 himself.Now the entire galaxy can know how terrible Trump and the GOP are.
I assume it means that the right-wing spin machine will go on and on about how NPR was "biased" by actually asking him tough questions for a change. He'll have a little safe-space rant on Fox about it, and how NPR is somehow now a "radical leftist" news source.lol, "people will hear about this." Pompeo is an absolute goon. Hear about what, that she could find Ukraine on a map? It doesn't even make sense as a response!
Is this one of them fancy new deepfakes? Wow, that's actually pretty good.
Wait. No. Noooooooooooooooo!
"Khan, an excellent man and great friend who has been treated very unfairly by those dopes and babies at Starfleet and the fake news media!" - Trump, probablyNow the entire galaxy can know how terrible Trump and the GOP are.
Yeah, if he really is grinding Trump's gears, then I'm fine with him. Let him take all the aggro while the real candidates avoid the heat.I was pretty hard against Bloomberg entering this race but, as a North Carolinian that is seeing LOTS of his ads, I think it will be a good thing. He's really nailing Trump and I believe he is sincere in backing whoever the eventual nominee is. Hopefully Steyer will do the same.
Adds more fuel onto the fire for her as a possible VP pick for Biden.
I don't get what you're trying to say?
Lots of new polls coming plus the Selzer poll for next Saturday
"Nobody has done an investigation anywhere near like the Mueller investigation of the Bidens, and I think they should. And when this is over the Congress will do it, if we can't have an outside entity do it," Graham told reporters.
Graham stressed that he would like "somebody outside of politics" to lead the investigation, but repeatedly said if that did not happen he would take the reins of a probe into former Vice President Joe Biden, his son Hunter Biden and Ukraine.
"You know why I don't want to do it? I love Joe Biden. I don't want to do this," Graham said, before adding: "I don't want it to be Lindsey Graham, because it will be hard for me, but if I have to I will do it."
I always figured it was a bucket list item for him. He's got the polling apparatus to know he doesn't have a chance in hell. It's certainly a creative way to burn a lot of money, though. Better than it sitting in a vault for eternity, at least.
I assume the China "deal," such as it is, has something to do with it. I mean he completely fucked over manufacturers and farmers for closing in on two years now, and the tariffs aren't actually going away until sometime after the election, but China agreed to buy some commodities, not yet dealing with any of the U.S.'s underlying issues with China and trade. But there was technically a "China trade deal" signed so... yay?I don't understand how Trumps approval numbers have gone slightly up.

Also, to try to put it as politely as I can, that's some serious attempted Nazi Shit.
please noWith only 10 days to go until Iowa, it might be a good idea for us to make a primary OT
... Have you seen how every thread on the etc side with any tangential relation to the primary have been going? It'd be locked within two days.With only 10 days to go until Iowa, it might be a good idea for us to make a primary OT

But what about a secondary thread?
Just have it avoid any negative talk about Bernie and it should be fine... Have you seen how every thread on the etc side with any tangential relation to the primary have been going? It'd be locked within two days.
An opened one?
You might want to edit that. Unless the rules have changed here, that post will likely get you banned.
At least it'll actually be useful, unlike in KY or SC.Gideon's probably getting crazy amounts of money from NY and CA lol.
