Seems an odd rule to enforce given Farage's attendance as an MEP.

Well, that graphic suggests 127 in 75 years, And your stats suggest 30 in the last 25 years of that range. Still seems at least plausible.

You're the best, AOC!

Good luck!

I am able to dig the 'planets.

It feels like they learned the wrong lessons from Kamala losing. Seems like they're blaming Walz's style or something?

Sadly, I don't think that's true. After the debate, despite Drumpf's own clear mental decline and propensity for lying, anyone on the fence would've gone for Trump. Biden's confusion and "we beat Medicare," sealed it.

You seem to be saying, 'but he had a VP,' that's not a winning electoral slogan.

Yet she didn't, until ery late, and with poor preparation of the public for the change (like highlighting what she'd done as VP, a weakness successfully played on by Faux News and the right). Such that it seemed like the decision was forced on Biden. That didn't seem like succession planning to me.

Then again, if nothing else, given his age when he took on the presidency, the Democrats absolutely should have started succession planning on day one.

It was all a lie, even most Tories probably don't know what Neoliberalism is supposed to achieve.

We're well beyond "first step".

I said using quotes ran the risk of being pretentious, but what is it when the quote is good, but not cited, and not actually a quote by the named individual?

At least in this case the quote is a paraphrasing of something Lincoln did say.

THAT is genius AND hilarious!

Ah, the old 'boys will be boys' scenario.

For a split second I did wonder what an "un-ionized Asian guy" was 🤪

AVALANCHE!!!
