That’s a cute little talking point. Right up there with the one about women wanting the same rights as guns. But the reality is that we aren’t going to get anyone better than Gorsuch. If McConnell allows Democrats to filibuster a nominee until the end of the investigation, and Trump is impeached/resigns, and Pence decides to drop Gorsuch, we’ll end up with someone as batshit crazy as Pence is. The truth is that the Gorsuch appointment is one of the few sane things Trump has done. America is lucky that Gorsuch didn’t refuse to accept the nomination given the ugly circumstances attached. Let him take his seat quickly and quietly and focus on more important issues.

Agreed. At least he's a real judge...

nobody is ever going to put him prison. he knows too much about all of it. who's money is where. he knows who's in colusion with enemy gov'ts.
people who know that much never go to prison. but sometimes, the sleep with the fishes.

The Dems have to look like they're putting their all into fighting it for their base......even though they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping it. Political theater

I've posted it before, probably in this very thread, that the gig economy is a way to do the same job you have always done but without any benefits and a silicon valley douchebag gets to keep part of your pay.

Yes, but America is full of people who are desperate for money or lack basic math skills and common sense. And to be blunt, the gig economy is full of people who are unemployable elsewhere. I’ve had some great Lyft drivers, but I’ve also had Lyft drivers who were to crazy and/or stupid to get a job in porn, much less McDonald’s. But they have a driver’s license and no criminal record, so they’re good.

And not all the gig economy companies are terrible. Rover.com seems to be making people very happy. Care.com has worked out great for us hiring a person to help with our autistic son, and we pay her directly. The problem with the gig economy is that the most visible companies are the sleaziest.

Clueless left-wing partisans aren’t the Dems base. If they were Bernie would have won the nomination.

If you go back to that John Oliver video where he talks about DJT''s propensity to lie and circle of confirmation bias, you'll see it laid out in DJT's own words in that interview. He gets his info from infowars/breitbart/fox and then repeats it in a tweet or statement. His supporters, who use the same media sources, see him confirm what they've heard so they know it's gotta be true & they repeat it as gospel....which he uses as proof that his tweet or statement was accurate and reflects the beliefs of the entire American public.
