I feel perhaps a bit bad for Sean. Unlike the other members of Trump's press/communications personnel, he seemed to get genuinely uncomfortable when spouting bs (although he'd still do it). By comparison, SHS seems like a complete sociopath who'll gladly say anything you ask her to with a straight face.

Ugh...after watching that trailer, fuck no.

Pretty blatant that they're going to make Light much more sympathetic / (emo-) "heroic" than even the anime, which already treated him far too nicely.* The fact that he doesn't even try writing in the notebook until Ryuk tells him to try is enough of a tip-off. In the anime, he goes into it w/ gusto before even meeting Ryuk, and Ryuk is surprised at how much he's already done. And that's not a spoiler, it's from the very first episode. It gives a very early indication of Light's burgeoning evil. And this movie completely removed that.
Also, assuming the black guy is L, they seem to have made him far more preachy and annoying, probably a clear-cut antagonist in this iteration.

*End of anime/manga spoilers: Making Light's death seem sad/tragic, when he's a sniveling hypocritical coward in the manga. Heck, the only way I'd watch any new Death Note stuff is if L's victorious in it. Fuck Light.

I voted 3rd party last time, and my state is nowhere near a swing state so my vote is pointless for the presidential election anyway. But if there were a do-over, I'd vote for Hillary just to run up her vote total and stick it to Trump, who campaigned as at least somewhat moderate (won't cut the safety net; thrice-married and spoke out in support of Planned Parenthood; etc...) but has surrounded himself with the most far-right and religious people of any modern president and taken a hacksaw to environmental policy while heartily supporting any crazy Ayn Randian hellscape policies Paul Ryan pushes (except for the rare moment's he's caught in private mentioning how "mean" they are, before going out and supporting them again anyway).

I'd MUCH rather have Bernie as the nominee though. Then the result would actually be different.

Pence should get booted along with Trump. It'd be pretty incredible to try and pretend he had no idea what was going on, and he's the one who vetted Michael Flynn, who's turned out to be amazingly, hilariously compromised.
Trump should not be impeached until they have the case against Pence as well. And ideally not until after the 2018 elections. Democrats need to be smart about this and not try to rush it...possibly even slowing the process down when Republicans decide to cut their losses and try to rush it.
Zeus posted...
Because that's really not how the system works. You're basically proposing getting rid of allowing the public to vote on the president, instead allowing congress and the senate to choose whoever they want by dismissing presidents without actual cause.

In general, correct. But aside from the evangelical voters, NO ONE voting for Trump last year was voting that way because they wanted Pence in the White House.

Not a simple majority. But I definitely think it should require at least 2 dissenting opinions to thwart the vast majority of jury members. It's ridiculous that a single stubborn hold-out, possibly someone who can never be swayed from a particular view ("death penalty should never be used"; "cops should never be convicted for actions done while on duty"; etc...) no matter how compelling the reasons/evidence should get to overrule the entire rest of the jury.
If you can't convince even one single other person of your view, you shouldn't get to decide it for the whole jury. I think that's a pretty damn low bar to clear.

Not a single person has been upset about Clinton or Trump's standings in this poll compared to hitler, the supposed "joke."
The ONLY people upset are the ones horrified that people would "like" hitler.

How many of those 'yes' votes were actually serious and how many were just people trolling/wanting to see how high up they could get him for a laugh?


I don't know, but I think there being any yes votes at all just shows how far society has fallen


Eh. Not really. Like I said, some people voted it for the lulz. That's really not indicative either way.

It's plenty indicative. There is nothing funny about saying you like hitler or that he had good ideas. It's not even about being offensive, there are plenty of of creative works that make jokes about it, like Mel Brook's "The Producers" and it's fine and funny. There's nothing creative or clever about saying you like hitler, it's bottom barrel lazy ass trolling AT BEST.
The fact that people think it's cool to "joke" about liking him says a lot about what absolute pieces of shit they are. Nevermind the closet-cases who really are nazi's but disguise it with, "It's just a prank, dude!" to give themselves cover.
This board is disgusting and full of nazis, and the vote tally doesn't "discredit" Hillary or Trump or whoever else, it denigrates the posters themselves.

You could just disqualify that person's vote (and it still counts as his vote for that hour) if he double heals. Having it hurt again just confuses the dull-witted among us, like Zeus.

Right now Dems need to put minimal attention towards the investigation, let it play out on its own. They need to focus on winning big in 2018 and 2020. At every level of government.

I can understand thinking that way if you value the Democratic party. I only value them because the Republican party has gone insane and they're the only alternative. So I understand that what you say makes good political sense. I just don't think it helps my country to let our idiot President stay in power for longer. Make no mistake, Pence would be a worse President, though. So perhaps biding time and gathering votes is also the best thing for the country.

I agree the Democrats suck, but until we get rid of First Past The Post voting (ie, never), we're stuck w/ a 2 party system and thus Dems are the only option other than Republicans.
And yes, Pence would be a much worse president, so ironically the more politically sound strategy (drag it out and uncover as much dirt as possible to bring down as many people as you can, while keeping the scandal alive in people's minds for the far-off elections) in this case also *looks* less political AND is better for the country. Crazy, but that's how it is.

EDIT: If Republicans were smart, they'd try to impeach Trump before 2019, ideally before the 2018 elections. Both to avoid an impeachment possibly landing a Dem Speaker of the House in the White House and to avoid getting tagged in campaign ads as being "partisan, party-first, and completely unwilling to impeach a traitor just because he's in their party." Here's hoping they remain the party of stupid, as Republican Jindal so put it.
