It'll be very hand-wavy.
It would be cool as long as the moderator is good.
Can you imagine anyone coming away with a new perspective from that debate? Pretty much 100% of viewers will believe their own side won easily.
I think there are enough people who don't know much about the Green New Deal but would tune in for the spectacle, who could potentially be swayed. Maybe 20-30%, which would be significant.
hmmmm
Pathetic.

Christ. What was her reasoning for shutting the bill down?
She’s on the same payroll as MM.
Why not do both?
Would one necessarily negate the other?

Rep. Waters saying what we all want to say
Biden spoke to Putin today or yesterday didn’t he? Probably no coincidence this is coming out.

At this point, 2024 is DeSantis' to lose. The only thing that could derail him politically is a scandal or if Trump decides to run.
A Trump will run, bank on it.
He's got money to milk off the conservatives and evangelical nutters.
Or he'll position Don Jr and/or Ivanka somehow.
Roughly 10 to 15 million people refusing to get vaccinated.
I said it in a different thread, but I'll repeat it here. I believe a refusal for non medical reasons to vaccinate should be grounds for insurance companies to deny paying for treatment of COVID. This has been my stance on other vaccines as well.
Don’t much disagree.
This guy.....
He’s had this stance for a few years. Weird though how he phrased it like he just came to this conclusion.

It will be interesting to see if his votes align with his admission.
Well put. He has been vocal about man made climate change since at least 2014, no clue how his voting on relevant issues has been since, though.
Very, very poor. (15% pro environment)
Lindsey O. Graham | League of Conservation Voters Scorecard (lcv.org)
Predictable. Words just don’t matter that much.
This IS Lindsey Graham you know.
Yep. One of the most brazenly duplicitous politicians of our lifetime.
They refused payments for acne. It's a banker that you'll be out of pocket if you don't get vaccinated.
The real life Littlefinger.
Nah, even Littlefinger was a Democrat when he was Mayor of Baltimore.
Who / what is Littlefinger?
Game of Thrones character. Grade A asshole but brilliant manipulator, so basically not Lindsay Graham.
Edit: Played by the actor who also played Mayor Cacetti on The Wire.
I get The Wire reference. Good actor.
We are looking at it with a different specs.
If i were them, living in rural america, shit education standard, never seen the world beyond local mall, heavilly induced by local evangelicals i would probably be like them
Actually i pity them to be fair..
Oh, their sheltered, skewed minds are very pitiable.
Not an excuse in this day of information availability.
And while I can see why from afar they may seem pitiable, when you have lived amongst them you retain no pity, only contempt. At best.
