Wait for the pardon.

Really, tho, I expect Trump's list of pardons in his last year to be really, really gross. "Oh, he raped, killed, and ate a troop of girl scouts? Well, he said I'm awesome so yolo."

Even without a pardon, he's only going to do about 5% of that term.

Kind of makes me sad they didn't get Bin Laden alive.

Don't. They're looking for a rise. You'd give them what they wanted.

Really, spiteful tagging due solely to your religion should have the mods doing something about it.

Fawlty and Trotsky and Jack get tagged out of the blue in threads but that's due to their postings. Which is incredibly annoying, but it seems much more malicious when it's purely for someone's identity aspects like religion or race and sexual preference.

I can't imagine a thread tagging out of the closet gay posters would be allowed.

I've come to realize I have like a subconscious low key racist view of Indian accents. I heard a person in public in the mall speak and I internally had a negative feeling.

I don't think it's actual racism though, I just work with a lot of Indian natives at work here on green cards. So I've developed a pavlovian response to hearing an Indian accent and thinking about all my idiot coworkers (not necessarily because they are actually idiots, we just all think we have a lot of idiot coworkers and 70% of my daily interactions with coworkers are with Indians and therefore Indian accents)
 
In just two days, Ruth Bader Ginsburg will have survived into an election year, which means that the Republican senate won't confirm a new Justice before the next election.

Ya did it, Old Girl!

Wait, why is everybody frowning?

You should drop a bomb on them. Figuratively speaking.

In that case, though, the tags were Trotsky praising him, JSN defending him, and Fazz sympathizing with him, in addition to the one asshole tag and another one I can't understand (by one of the interchangeable dolts).

I would love nothing more than if RBG peacefully passes early 2020, her seat can be held up until after the election for that president to appoint, and that starts the process of a truce in this overwhelming partisan bullshit instead of everything being tic for tac and escalating each time one side pulls something the other side justifying off of it

I mean, I know that won't happen, but a man can dream

I was talking other threads, not that one specifically

I've seen the 3 of you in particular get called out in a variety of migrant or dem policy backfire example threads

Those are annoying, but at least have to do with ya'lls policy opinions. Not who you are like Kafir was subjected too.
 
@Rod1 Have you ever visited the States and tried Mexican cuisine here?

I have lived in a few Mexican-American neighborhoods and have a lifelong love of Mexican food, and I think Mexican immigrants to the States have created some of the most dynamic cuisine in the world.

As far as I can tell, there are at least 10 subsets of Mexican cuisine in the United States:

  • Type A - Authentic Mexican - Pretty much only found in somewhat dense Mexican-American neighborhoods; owned, staffed, and mostly patronized by Mexican Americans; most common drinks are natural juices, sodas, and beers, with margaritas and cocktails being rare

  • Type B - Semi-Authentic "Americanized" Mexican - Found in most towns and cities; comparable to type A but with more cheese, more flour tortillas, more sour cream, and less onions and way less cilantro; also, margaritas; still owned and staffed by Mexican Americans but mostly patronized by non-Mexican consumers

  • Type C - Semi-Authentic High-End Mexican - Exclusively found in big cities; generally operated by a Mexican American chef that seeks to experiment more with his cuisine, accentuate lesser known Mexican dishes, and maybe borrow some dishes from other Latin American countries; smaller portion sizes and less reliance on beans and rice

  • Type D - Semi-Authentic Fast Casual Mexican - Found in medium-size cities and up; generally mission-style restaurants, offering burritos and bowls; generally staffed by Mexican Americans but owned by non-Mexican investors

  • Type E - Semi-Authentic Mexican Fusion - Found in medium-size cities and up; Mexican cuisine mixed with other national cuisine, most commonly Korean, but still generally staffed by Mexican American workers

  • Type F - Non-Authentic Fast Casual Mexican - Found everywhere; mission-style restaurants in the vein of Chipotle and Qdoba. Not overtly inauthentic like true fast food, but little to no effort is made to retain real Mexican ingredients.

  • Type G - Non-authentic Mexican Fusion - Found in medium-size cities and up; purely non-Mexican cuisine using Mexican cuisine vehicles, mostly tortillas; not staffed by Mexican Americans

  • Type H - Non-authentic High-End Mexican - Found in big cities; similar to type G, but instead of other immigrant cuisine, it's mostly hipster urbanites putting weird shit into tacos but also accentuating random Latin American items like yucca. Portion size is tiny and price is high. Not owned, staffed, or generally patronized by anyone but young white people

  • Type I - Non-authentic Mexican Fast Food - Taco Bell has pretty well cornered this market on a national scale; not authentic by any means but still some attempt to retain references to Mexican cuisine even if in name only

  • Type J - Non-authentic American Mexican - Not authentic at all and very little attempt to appear otherwise; ballpark nachos, "totchos," and fast food tacos from Burger King and Jack in the Box.
And all of them are awesome. Even the shitty ones.

I would expect Trump's to be worse since he's almost certainly a worse and more vindictive human being.

Especially if he loses his 2020 reelection bid. In that case, he'll be so miffed that all bets are off. He may well pardon all federal inmates just to watch the country burn.

If he wins in 2020 and can ride off as a winner, maybe he'll "only" pardon the hucksters, extortionists, and petty capitalists that he counts himself among. Will still be grosser, I suspect, than any pardon list in American history.

I made a joke last month that the turkey Trump pardoned on Thanksgiving would turn out to be a convicted sex offender
