She legit looks like a comic book movie super villain in that thumbnail.

I need to go watch that again.

I have no idea actually…

He kind of has to be at this point. Most if not all states require the candidates to be finalized by a certain date.

Before too long, they’ll be locked in unless they just want to not run a ticket…

Thanks for sharing.

That’s the difference. They held him to account in front of a camera in a way CNN hasn’t before. They didn’t treat him like a normal person.

Second, they need to strip out anything not related to climate change.

Then it goes nowhere. It’s just more political posturing. Absolutely 100% entirely dead in the water. The Senate and House are both so split down the middle by both parties, it’ll require bipartisan support. It necessarily will have to have riders associated, otherwise it won’t receive the support it needs.

Yes… this is exactly how wasteful legislation gets passed, but it’s entirely outside the realm of possibility in the real world

I agree with the whole experience thing, but there are tons of roles to play in and out of congress. So maybe instead of hard term limits, we do something like, no more that 4 consecutive terms for House members and 2 consecutive terms for Senators, but unlimited non-consecutive terms. That way you get some turnover but experience keeps getting built.

Idk… just spitballing

As much as I love Jon Stewart, saying he’d make a great president is not a leap I’m willing to make.

Except for Mike Tyson.

Holy fucking shit, I wish I shared your generalized optimism
