There is no crisis. Trump is no threat to democracy in Arizona or America.
That's the headline. USA Today carried it.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/no-crisis-trump-no-threat-110106147.html
The author says: "Richard Nixon’s low-level minions were afraid to talk to the Washington Post’s B-team in those early days of the Watergate burglary. Eventually Watergate would shake the pillars of government.
Today the populist president Donald Trump works to invalidate an election he lost, and there is no national anxiety. You do not smell the fear.
The only thing one smells is a faltering president who doesn’t know he's gone rancid on the vine.
Democracy is not on the brink. There is no great threat to the Republic. And but for the hysteria of a few tremulous writers, there is no crisis.
The country is walking calmly to Jan. 20 when it will inaugurate Joe Biden as the 46th president of the United States.
America has once again undergone a stress test and held firm."
I would love to agree, but I'm not sure I do. But am I being too alarmist in my thoughts? I know I will rest more comfortably after Jan. 20.
Bob Woodward, of Watergate fame, was and remains a CIA agent. Deep Throat was self admitted to be the Deputy Head of the FBI. Same Deep State who killed Jack, Bobby and Martin. Washington Post today is owned by a man who made his money shipping shit from China and selling it on-line. Follow the money, and the power, and the evil. Nixon didn't do anything wrong, by the standards of the time. His big mistake was trusting Henry Kissinger and opening the world to Communist China.
"Let China Sleep, for when she wakes, she will shake the world" - Napoleon Bonaparte
Best explanation I ever heard for Watergate, is that Richard Nixon had promised CIA George H W Bush the VP slot but gave it to Spiro T Agnew. Then they stitched up Agnew, but then Nixon chose Gerald Ford, not Bush. And Ford chose Nelson Rockefeller as his VP. LBJ, Nixon, Ford and Bush are all connected to Dallas, Nov 22 1963. Then Nixon said he had taken enough crap from the Deep State, was going to admit what happened to Jack. That is when Watergate became important. Spying on the opposite party using criminal means was and remains standard ops.
So it is a crisis if the Dems don't like it, but it isn't if the Reps don't like it (not counting Never Trumpers who are closet Dems)? Jimmy Carter was a Trilteralist aka partner with David Rockefeller and the opening of the oligarchy to Asia. So he was acceptable to the Deep State, even more than Ford. The US voter has been played for many decades, going back to the election of 1800 (sex scandal, Jefferson is misegenating with his slaves). Why do Dems have so many sex scandals? MSM going back to newspapers in Jefferson's day, are for low information citizens and to spread official propaganda.

I'd be relieved if the only smell was a faltering president. Almost half of our congress was behind him, along with half the country. This is like a train wreck, where some dumb ass official says, "Move along everyone. There's nothing to see here."

I have no doubt that Trump will be out of the white house come jan 20th.
If that is your definition of a political crisis, then no, no crisis.
But a crisis in democracy and politics runs deeper than that.
If you don't see a problem in the massive backlash to the election results and asskissing-pandering to the current president that followed, and the fact that the 'leader of the free world' has chosen to spread disinformation and places his ego before the wellbeing of his country... And that there are still +70 million Americans that would have rather had him as their leader for four more year... If all of that doesn't register as a threat to democracy in and by itself, you are a fool.
The threat lies not in the immeadate overturning of the democratic system and it's protections put in place. It lies in the poisoning of the well of democracy. The cancer shan't kill you today. But a year from now?

That's what I think, for the most part. I read the article and had a momentary pause. I also think that trump is not the cause of all of this but the symptom. Therefore, we are, as a country, in a world of hurt! Lots and lots of work to do.

Yes, it's as if the writer thinks that with Trump gone, everything goes back to normal. The problem is that "normal" for the last 40 years is a steady decay of democracy. A healthy democracy doesn't want that kind of normal. Trump just showed up at an opportune time. But he does not get a pass. He took a bad situation and fed it back on itself to advance his own dictatorial power grab, while setting the bar lower for the next anarchist who is offended by the democratic process.

But you and I benefit from that grifting (I worked for government as contractor for 32 years). How much of your market cornering happened because of biased government intervention in the markets to benefit certain investors? My mother's assets didn't grow at all, after Fed Reserve declared that getting interest on regular savings was evil. And savings are still evil. Spend every dollar you have, get as much credit as possible, and max that out ... or the economy gets it. Anyone remember that Shrub handed out 7 trillion dollars in credit before he left office, and Obama handed out another 7 trillion dollars in credit as soon as he entered office. That is why there are so many billionaires now, because the average Joe didn't get a bite of that.

A little over 3 years ago, Nazis murdered a woman in Charlottesville. We, as a nation, just kinda shrugged and said that was par for the course.
How much have we progressed as a country since then, really? This year half the nation said they had no opinion on that, and another quarter said they supported the man who instigated that violence.
If that isn't a crisis, I don't know what is.

And Richard Spencer, current head of American Nazis, supported and voted for Biden. Wonder why? So when are you killing the Democrats for being Nazis? Would be poetic justice if their own Black Shirts, say BLM, lynched the Democrats ;-) It is a fantasy, that LBJ sprinkled fairy dust on the Dems and turned them all into liberals. Congratulations, you just elected Goldman-Sachs yet again!
Like Mike CL, you see Nazis under your bed. Put down the weed, man! I can vouch for all the commies under my bed ;-) If they support Stalin.
That poor woman, was overweight, and died of a heart attack, just as George Floyd died from a drug overdose (he swallowed his stash of fentanyl when the cops approached him for trying to pass a counterfeit $20). She was never hit by the car, though the driver should have gotten a ticket for reckless driving, not for wearing a bed sheet, which he wasn't BTW. Both cases being "bad behavior is injurious".

We were in crisis, 1960-1965, then again 1965-1975, then again 1975-1985. Remember the assassination attempts on Ford and Reagan? Young people think it is the "end of the world as we know it" ... if their pumpkin spice latte is too cold.
Yes, the FBI, CIA and Secret Service took care of our problem, Nov 22 1963. But that didn't stop LBJ from invading Vietnam.

Yes, it is appropriate that French be used here as they were the ones who dispatched Lafayette on the fast frigate "La Hermione" to inform General Washington a French army and fleet are on their way. Washington is said to have shed a tear of joy. At the Siege of Yorktown (1781) more French gave their lives than did Americans during this final decisive battle. As a Southerner, I am ashamed that the flag of treason and slavery was raised inside our Capitol building yesterday by ignorant people.

Well, it looks like the fucking democrats are going to get away with it, and they have will total control over our lives. Congratulations, you all just got what you wished for. Hope you realize that this isn't like larping, this is real. Kiss your "fweedom"(fuck you kamala) and your money goodbye. You wanted it, now deal with it.

Yep, we are going back to the dictatorship like we suffered under during Obama.

I know, right? Who would have thought a coup attempt is not like larping? The Constitution, the law... all that shit is real. They even shoot white people dead. What's the world coming to?
Especially that poor chick... "We are storming the Capitol, it is a revolution!" Can you believe she got maced for that? I was in tears. Why?
Cowards and traitors for respecting the democratic process rather than overturn the election results because of baseless rumors of fraud, after courts at every level threw out Trump's case due to a complete lack of evidence. Sure, buddy.

Trump was more upset that Capitol mob looked ‘low class’ than about violent attacks, reports say
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-more-upset-capitol-mob-161414849.html
As a mob of his supporters stormed the US Capitol on Wednesday, Donald Trump was reportedly unconcerned about the destruction or insurrection taking place but instead how the violent extremists appeared “low-classâ€.
What his followers don't understand or want to understand, is that he has despised them from before 2016. He simply understood just how deeply racist much of the people of this country is and tapped into that. That does not mean he likes them or respects them or is willing to do much for them as a group. But his cult followers simply love to hate that much.

What do anticipate is going to happen? I'm less convinced the government is going to take "total control of our lives" than they are too incompetent and conflicted to get anything accomplished.

Let's be honest... Republicans voted for a man who eats chain pizza (as a NYC native) with a fucking knife and fork.
Expecting anything from them is a mistake at this point, and to address the topic... forget all the political bullshit, just the fact that a man as previously detailed above runs the United States should qualify at the very least as a cultural and moral crisis of the American people.

There are two possible outcomes in a coup. It either works or fails. In other countries, there are dire consequences in either case. Here it looks like the losers get a slap on the hand, while jail time is a long shot, because that is how our system works. What would have happened if the coup had worked? I'm not asking this in order to sound ominous. The coup would have destroyed the foundation of the system. Would the other parts of the constitution remain in tact?
Did Trump have a long term goal? What were his plans after he decreed himself president? Or was this just meant to be a constitutional face lift done by a small band of rebels?

Interestingly enough, all that's probably the reason why the word 'larping' was started to be used too often by the far right. I just registered, it's not a coincidence he used that word up there. I have seen that more than several times before...that word used in this context from the same point of view?
These people are the champions of projection, exactly because of that. Between all that hard compartmentalization; senseless brainwashing and heat applied...it surfaces itself, because there is no way out; no change. Because there is no actual connection of any of that bullshit they're being fed to their real life. Nothing changes in their life. For other groups there have been many changes good or bad... good, forward...what has changed for the white right wingers and the religious in the last 50 years or more since the USA has become America?
Their leaders do not care about any of the consequences, because none of them would get affected in any case, so that's actually how they see themselves too. The delusion. There is a republican senator profile, isn't there? Is my impression wrong? Are Democrats that homogenic in this context? They are probably far more diverse. So yeah, that's the entitlement and where the larping comes from. Also the underestimation at their part.
However, if he has a long term plan, a lot of things should already be at stake right now, otherwise it is a crazy conspiracy fantasy. Because there must be a trail by now. It's not like they can kill Kennedy and ML King together twice. So if there is a big picture -lol I know- beyond all this, it can't be limited by a domestic scale. I don't mean a foriegn interference, the opposite. A paradigm shift in the US policies regarding the world. And all I can think is 'land and alternative energy sources'...nothing mysterious. What will happen to republican core and their voters when the life style dramatically changes in the next decades? Because it will.

Republican representatives are a very tight knit group. They vote as a block. Democrats usually do too but not nearly as tight, because they represent a much more diverse group. Republicans serve a large block with very singular interests, which is why it is easy for them to fall in line, and why they can deliver so much more to their constituents. Democrats are in a position of trying to herd cats. I think Democrats actually represent a much larger group, but such a diverse group that they are afraid that whatever they do will anger some of the cats. As a result, their accomplishments are rather feeble, whether it be environmental protection, healthcare, or mobilizing a highly effective response to a pandemic.
The new administration might even legalize pot! Run for the hills!

Saw a friend on Facebook talking about how Democrats demonize everybody, even other Democrats because they're so easily offended! I was like, first of all, Republicans literally say that Democrats serve the devil. You don't get more demonizing than that. And yeah. Republicans are much more united in their goals. They want to ban abortion, increase military support, support "religious freedoms," etc. Democrats serve a lot of different groups with different priorities. Some might focus on climate change, others on LGBTQ+ rights, or gun controls. We don't all agree with each other, nor do we have our priorities in the same order. What might be seen as a necessary step to one might be seen as too extreme by another. That's how we get a milquetoast Democrat like Biden elected, because he's the least threatening and doesn't have a particular strong stance on anything.

You have made being liberal into a religion. How else would you explain the instant hatred for anyone that thinks differently than you? It becomes personal and it stays that way. Apparently you haven't been listening to your own "heros" on the left, people like BLM and antifa(fucking retards), they want to erase our history and give everything away for free. Well, that only works until you run out of other people's money. Then what? There are no honest politicans any where in this country, they are all cowards and/or traitors. This country is NOT going to get better, just listen to what the communists are saying. I hope you are a gun owner, because you just might have to use it in "your" future. I'm done with politics, I have too many other issues to deal with, so I'll leave you fucking retards(remember,you made it personal first) to bask in the glow of the most corrupt election in U.S. history.

I'd like to know(not really), how do you become a STAFF MEMBER on an atheist's forum when you're dumb enough to hear the words that tell you what their intentions are, but not understand their meanings? Making everything personal and not letting ANY ideas that don't match up with yours go un-challenged is the reason that threads like this, or anything else political just drives people away from this forum. You recently banned some guy named BARUCH if I remember correctly. I went back and read some of his last posts. He was a little unhinged in his last few responses. But in my opinion, and looking at it from a conservative point of view, a lot of your responses are as unhinged and hateful as his were. I guess that what I've heard about most atheists being democrats /liberals is true.

He unfortunately won't be able to respond, after saying he was leaving and yet sticking around just to continue and flame I figured that was a good point to nip that one in the bud.
Ah. I mean, really. How's he gonna act like we're the ones making things personal, when he dismisses people based on their fucking avatars? I remember I mocked him for this, saying that I didn't know how seriously to take him, since he didn't have an avatar to judge him on.

If yall legitimately believe he had even the remotest intention of actually debating anything instead of just flaming then I will bump it down to a suspension rather than a ban and give him a second chance.Edit: I have modified it to be a suspension since I didn't offer any warning. However any future violations will be a full ban.I didn't take action because of the political position of what he said, otherwise there would be several other posters I would have gotten rid of a long while ago, but rather because he did clearly violate our 5th rule multiple times.
And I don't believe posters like him would prevent this forum from becoming an echo chamber since he seemed to lack an actual position, just anger and insults.

I did ask him a rather open-ended question about Pence and he seems to have ignored that in favor of going on a flame spree and then ragequitting. And for someone who doesn't like discussing politics, he sure seems to wander into the politics section a lot. This is far from the first time he's been told to stay out of the kitchen if he can't take the heat. So the prognosis isn't good, but I suppose it's best to find out for sure.
I do find the assertion funny that we're creating an echo chamber when:
A) there's lots of disagreement about tons of stuff, but it's usually minor things and it's usually pretty cordial (I dunno if I really consider it a loss that needs to be remedied if everyone here is pro-democracy lol)
B) the people out there who subscribe to fringe ideologies - and this stuff truly is fringe if you think about it - and the ability to participate in a discussion as an adult seem to be mutually-opposed. Not just here, but there seems to be a flight to various fringe-friendly platforms where they can strut their stuff unbothered by reality. So it's little wonder the conversation gets one-sided. Add the typical dispositions of a community of atheists, and well...

I hate it that my society keeps rubbing my nose in the fact that I was very naive about things of race in this country. Oh, I was aware of racism (I was introduced to it in the separate-but-equal era in Alabama) in my country. I simply did not realize just how deep it ran, and how it figured into almost every aspect of our society. Now we are faced with an armed and organized insurrection, led and inspired by our president and his toadies. More of our military and police forces are in support of that insurrection than I had realized. The capitol invasion proved that. I am deeply afraid that there will be major bloodshed in the next week. I am beginning to regret not having at least a couple of pistols on hand. I am lucky enough that I have lived a good life--nothing can take that away. But I fear for my children and grandchildren.
I never talk religion or politics out here in meatspace, only on line. Not a lot of Trumpanistas in my area, but better safe than sorry.
Those Trumpublicans who fail to go through a metal detector at the Capitol will be fined $5000!
