        @DoctorPhil:

        If America doesn't support pedophile warlords

        This is an extremely offensive way to refer to the UK.

          I don't know why I thought that was funny.

                @Lord:

                The US should spend at least until it doesn't have personnel deficiencies and upgrade it's 40 year old equipement.

                Ah so it is based on more of an idealized image of what the US military should be rather than in response to any imminent threat. But surely both those objectives should be do able over time with a gradual phasing out of old equipment and implementation of better staff policies. Dumping more money to bail out an incompetent management sounds like a hard sold idea when people already perceive the US military as a monetary sinkhole

                  Hmm, taking single polls or other data points to make big catastrophizing pronouncements to get people all upset and excited. Have you considered a career at CNN?

                    So since no one is talking about it, I suppose the Bernie/Biden debate went boring as hell and didn't change things for Bernie at all.

                    Biden's the one. always been.

                          Well gosh it really sucks then that Trump can rely on extremely predictable plateauing circumstances like a quickly escalating pandemic, and extremely volatile stock market isn't it.

                          (btw, even Carter got an approval bump at the start of the Iron hostage crisis, famously cruising him to mega victory against Reagan)

                          No seriously, look at this.

                              Largely thanks to Rasmussen and RMG, the latter of which is apparently the pollster of choice for One America News Network, which is the news channel for those people tired of those Commie Pinkos at Fox News.

                              Primaries are pretty much going as expected with Biden winning by massive margins in Florida and Illinois.

                                Carter would have won if he had not done anything to piss Iran off.

                                  I'm not all that familiar with the Iran Hostage Crisis but I don't think it was Carter's fault Iranians got tired of Pahlavi's shit.

                                      They wanted Pahlavi to stand trial but Carter decided to bring him in for cancer treatment. Carter should've just give them Pahlavi to prevent this crisis.

                                      There you go, with the crisis going around, Trump finally took this seriously to get the stock market back up, however calling the Coronavirus "China Virus" is a bad bad move.

                                            Woah, he's pretty sweet being on the 1000th page.

                                            Weird coincidence that it's on the same day that the stock market goes back to pre-Trump lows. Are we really going forward?

                                                  1,000 pages and it only took three years plus change. That's…something.
