If you don't pay them well, only the wealthy can afford it.

I'm guessing she means "those lazy bums won't even work overtime without extra pay"

That gives every cop a financial motive to lie for each other, cover up incidents and silence witnesses.

“They did offer to pay my way and I said, No thank you.”

Sounds like a VIP to me. She was also sitting at the table with the keynote speaker, Michael Flynn.

Until now, Stein hasn’t offered many details about how she came to be there or what happened beyond saying it was “a great opportunity to lay out some of my foreign policy proposals and get Russian reactions to them.”

So she wanted Putin's approval on her foreign policy?

They elected an MMA guy to beat up people that disagree with them.

Think? Who ever said Trump was a thinker? Even he admits he just makes decisions by reflex.

Seems like they've been campaigning pretty hard on abortion access. Not sure what else a party that covers moderate right and center with a few moderate lefts could all get excited about. Federal legalization of Marijuana might be popular enough.

I'd like to see more progressive campaigns but unfortunately it seems like the party needs everyone who isn't far right to have a chance of beating the christo-fascists. It seems so much harder to motivate voter turnout for Democrats. You can't just feed them anger, hate and fear, you have to convince them you're actually going to make things better.

I didn't want Biden but isn't that who the party voted for in the primary? I guess after Trump, a boring, return to normal sounded good to people and I haven't heard of anyone else running for the Democratic nomination that's even worth consideration. We had the anti-vaccine loon with zero experience, the congressman I'd never heard of who can't name anything he would do differently than Biden and was so incompetent he missed the filing deadline to be on the ballot in some states and the lady who also has no experience but seems like she believes in healing crystals. The whole party is a complicated mess but I still find it almost incomprehensible that there is a still a serious possibility of Trump being elected again.

Did WW2 happen again and I missed it? Because last month he was talking about number 2 and now we're up to 3 again? Maybe they re-released WW2 but it went straight to DVD?

And why are they allowed to waste taxpayers money investigating a non-crime? Is it because they were insulted? They need to grow up and put their big boy pants on.

Why do they keep embarrassing themselves by failing vote, after vote, after vote? Don't they have a majority whip or someone who can go around and count the votes? Do they not understand how disorganized and stupid it makes them look?

And we can believe him, right? Why would he lie?
