OT: American Politics

[LeafGm]

Have to figure Trump's meetings with doctors at Walter Reed went something like this, no?

 

[CH1]

I feel sorry for his makeup person.

 

[Volcanologist]

I feel sorry for his anything person.

 

[axlsalinger]

I feel the most sorry for us, having to see and listen to this goddamn buffoon every single day for 4 fucking years.

I have to say, the way that US politics seems to just overtake some of you guys, is very strange for me to witness.

Like, I guess I'm still kinda interested in what's going on in Canadian politics and society. Kinda-ish. Because I can't imagine spending more than 5 minutes a week stressing about anything going on over there though. And in 99% of the weeks, not even that. The way you guys are so affected by what's going on here is rather surprising to see.

 

[zeke]

Thats cuz you don't realize what's at stake right now.

US Presidential Politics is also the greatest unscripted drama on earth — even before Trump.

It’s not like this thread discusses Iowa’s state taxes.

Oh, got it.

there’s a Canadian political thread with very little traffic— so we share your indifference

 

[CH1]

Oh, got it.

do you even know there’s an election, brah?

[zeke]

I mean...had to be done...

 

[CH1]

Someone called it The Great Gaspy

Still a month to go, but Arizona looks to be solidly D for both POTUS and senate.

How bad did it need to be to get him to go to the hospital in the first place?

There was real fear because his symptoms were bad very soon after testing positive

This feels like uncharted territory; I’ve read of many cases where recovery is not linear; so no surprise if he gets hospitalised again

All we know is that some old dude on steroids is convincing himself he’s fine
