That is the best part about Spencer, he is a total doof and failure at every other part of existence. His 39 years on the planet have been just a series of failures. The only thing he can peddle is hate. And he can only do that by threatening to file a lawsuit against anyone who says he isn’t worth the time and money. Because he is a loser. | ||

No one wants Spencer there, but they have to allow him there by law. But surprisingly somehow they don't have a responsibility over who is allowed to attend/cover the event. It's always very odd to me where the 1st amendment ends in these sort of things (hint it always seems to be right after the white supremacists get their way). | ||

Haha yeah. That happens a lot when people try to ask gotcha questions or introduce themselves and ramble on about something dear to them without even asking a question. Also it ain't the easiest thing to speak publicly without some form of experience, especially with a microphone too close or too far away. | ||

Ousted and demoted DNC veterans reportedly include Ray Buckley, James Zogby, Alice Germond and Barbra Casbar Siperstein, the network reported, adding that a common thread linking many of them is their support of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), who ran against Perez for the chairmanship. Buckley, who ran against Perez for the top DNC role before endorsing Ellison, was pushed out of his positions on the DNC's Executive Committee and Rules Committee, NBC News reported. "I understand the chair can do as he pleases, but still, it's all just very disappointing," Buckley told the news outlet. Remember this is with Donna Brazile (admitted cheater) being ON the rules committee. The DNC is just hopeless. | ||

But I don’t know if it was always like that, because the Republicans have the same problem. There is going to be a faction of democrats that will always believe that or be mad about it. And if one of those has control over committee, they might be a petty bitch. Or maybe in charge of the whole party (as much as a petty faction can be) If the 80+% of Democrats that back Bernie's ideas* chose them over the party, that faction would come running, tail tucked between their legs, but too many people continue to embrace the shitfest that is the Democratic party establishment. | ||

Stage 3 (~18 hours): DJT lies about substance of statement Stage 4 (~24 hours): further eyewitnesses come forwards contradicting DJT (cultists play epistemological games and pretend we haven't had this cycle before [WE ARE HERE]) Stage 5 (~48 hours): DJT confirms original statement in hate tweet Stage 6 (~72 hours): anti-anti-Trump attacks media for focusing on terrible thing Trump says and cultists wash whole thing from their memory We are minutes from Stage 5.
