What Colorado is proposing is so dangerous to the nation that this Supreme Court should deliver an easy 9-0 decision for Trump--but it will probably be 8-1 because the most recent addition is a biased leftist moron who has never let the law or the Constitution interfere with furthering DNC political interests.

I thought you said tanq was a good dude underneath all that BS he spewed for so long. As a mostly impartial observer, I kept looking for hints of that. Never saw it.

He is a good guy. He's just let his hatred for Donald Trump take over his thinking.
I don't really understand. He's very libertarian, and I would think libertarians hat the deep state more than anyone else, but so far he hasn't gone there.

All that may be but I would guarantee he still believes he is right.
I would think a libertarian wouldn't want the government to send people to prison for making a joke
Quote:Mackey was sentenced to 7 months for posting memes that encouraged Clinton supporters to vote via text message, which is not a valid way to vote.
I dont know anyone but an idiot, democrat idiot, someone that hated Trump, that would be OK with that. Surely not a libertarian. Tang was 100% behind this man going to prison for posting this on twitter

They're scared of population trends. W. gained 7 votes from reapportionment between 2000 and 2004. If 2024's split repeated 2004, the Republican would get 296 votes instead of 286. That's 17 votes in just 24 years.

Every one of these states should suffer some sort of punitive judgment. Every one of these governors should be on a list of communist officials operating in our own backyards.

I thought you said tanq was is a good dude underneath all that BS he spewed for so long. As a mostly impartial observer, I kept looking for hints of that. Never saw it.
My impression is similar to Shere's.
to be fair, I have as well...
he's been quite the interesting case study over the past handful of years ... also, I don't have the weak spine ... if I dish it, I better be able to take it in return...
he knew he was diving into the pickle barrel on this board ... only he can answer why he chose that line of defense ... my best guess is the severest case of TDS coupled with his admiration of subjective law ... regardless, it was his choice to engage...
this is no different than when three of us left cous-cous ... we're now in the taste testing period ... and I'mma gonna have a fk'n blast moving forward!!!
I think he's probably a decent enough dude who took a beating here for having off the wall opinions, almost all of with which I disagreed. I think we put him on the defensive early on and he never adapted. He was out of his element here. I think some hubris made him think he was above the average user here and that bit him on the ass.
In the end I think he ended up in the bed he made for himself. Look at dudes like horses ass, he is wrong IMO on almost everything and he takes a lot of abuse but he keeps coming back and doesn't take it too deeply to heart. I can admire that in a man. Tanq was too sensitive for this place.
