notobtuse wrote: » Back on topic... If Trump was such a threat to our democracy that Pelosi had to rush impeachment, why then did she invite Trump to give his SOTU speech before the House? It gave Trump a powerful platform to celebrate his accomplishments and present his future agenda. The US Constitution merely requires the president provide Congress a report detailing the state of the union... you know... the one Pelosi tore up. Of course the Senate could always have invited Trump to give his SOTU address, but it would have been a much smaller venue with much less pomp and circumstance.

But even if she remained a democrat when she enters politics, yes, I would actively campaign for her to some extent. Hey, according to you I have no morals.

notobtuse wrote: » I believe Thomas Jefferson ended the practice of giving the SOTU in a speech… around 1802. It wasn’t until Woodrow Willson became president that it went back to being a speech, around 1915. So there is just about as much history for not having the SOTU given as a speech as there is to give it as a speech. And Pelosi and Shiff didn’t give a rat’s ass about tradition, due process, or fair play in their impeachment farse, why would she care about tradition regarding the SOTU if Trump represented such a danger? And Pelosi broke tradition anyway at the SOTUS by presenting Trump as only "the president of the United States." Previous House speakers have all introduced thepresident by saying they had the "high privilege and distinct honor of presenting to you the president of the United States."
Trump is a race-baiting, xenophobic, bigot who doesn't know anything about anything and he should go to hell

I lived over there for four years, my wif is from there, and have have many friends and family who I'm regularly in touch with. Of the fourteen that I've spoke to over the last couple of days ten are embarrassed by her actions, two are delighted and the other two are in not caring section. A lot of them don't like Trump but don't like Sanders or Warren either. I'd guess based on our conversations that between five and eight of them will vote regardless. I think if Biden or somebody of a similar type gets the nomination that you'll get maybe ten or eleven of them at the polls but most of them are not happy about things right now as regards their party. Now I know this is a very small sample size but these are mostly very big democrats, lots of them are members of the party and normally you'd be ignored at best if you criticised a potential nominee but not this time around. I think they reflect the middle class earner in the United States on the Democratic side.

Boggles wrote: » Nancy is leader of the house, she is not a potential nominee. Standing up to Trump and calling out his narcissistic bullshít is what the grass roots Democrats want. It's what every single democrat has been doing since he took office. I'm afraid your friends would be outliers in that respect.There will be no "going high" in this election.

It doesn't matter if you believe "Clinton had reason to be humble and sorry for his actions" no more than wether I think Trump should be jailed for his. As you pointed out, Trump was acquited, as I pointed out Clinton was also aqquited and is therefore by your own standards as innocent as Trump.

But the comment of mine you reference was merely a response to a poster showing the difference between Clinton and Trumps public comments after their acquittals, and why I thought they both were made in appropriate fashion.
