Agree that the voters don't know, but the politicians do. MAGA voters are the most uninformed, ignorant, stupid people in history, and Trump and his media enablers will keep them that way. It's all disgusting, and I'm grieving the loss of my country.

I'm sure they know this, but don't care because going after dark-skinned people has been a winner for them. Hopefully for the mid-terms we'll go back to "It's the economy, stupid."

Also twice as likely to start new businesses as native-born. This is a huge reason why the economy is going to sink into stagflation.

As a former prosecutor, the Ross video convinced me that this was premeditated murder. His actions--switching hands of phone, moving in front of the vehicle, firing 3 shots, feigning "whoa," to pretend he was hit, then denying access to med. care--are evidence of planning. Not great planning tho.

As a fmr prosecutor, I thought the video evidenced not just intent to kill, but planning/premeditation. He switched phone to different hand, moved in front of vehicle when he should have moved away, yelled "whoa" in feigned way, no sound of body being hit by vehicle. It was (not well) planned.

As a former prosecutor, one thing I know is that if you make a bunch of arrests that don't result in convictions, you're making bad arrests, which is a problem.

I'm embarrassed to say that I watched Celeb Apprentice in the 00s and thought he was gross, especially the way he spoke to women. You could also see the narcissism loud & clear, and that is a terrible quality in a leader.

THIS! Just the f'ed up way McConnell torpedoed Obama's pick was enough for me, but most people have no idea that SCOTUS rulings impact absolutely everything. And some of the same idiots blamed Biden for Dobbs b/c it happened during his term ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

I did look at the video, which is from a different angle than the one I saw (CNN). Yours is better; he was standing toward the left corner, and did in fact move away.
Sorry, I'm just so horrified and angry about this, the Portland shooting, and the lies. It's been a tough couple days!
