What point? If politicians were judged on their voting records, reelection rates would be 20% or less, instead of the present day 95%
For congressional districts, that's mostly the effect of gerrymandering and partisanship. However, an interesting effect of gerrymandering is that the side benefiting from the gerrymandering is vulnerable to opinion changes. If fewer people support that party than expected in an election they can lose everything, the party harmed by the gerrymandering, on the other hand, can swamp districts that have been cracked if general opinion changes, and they really can't lose districts that have been packed. It's all about risk management and if the risk calculations are wrong, it can all go disastrously for the would-be victors.
2020 is coming along with another blue wave.
LOL! Yeah, followed in 2021 by another disappointment like in 2009, 1993...
*sigh* the wishful thing never ends. The same mistakes will be repeated, and different results are to be expected, again...
On the other hand, merely disappointing would be a distinct upgrade from the horrifying shit show the Republicans are currently putting on.
Yes, that's exactly what he's saying.
No, it doesn't make any sense, and no he will never realize exactly how idiotic his rantings are.
If the person you're asking is a Republican, then they probably would, and then they'd get you an interview spot on Fox "News" so you could explain how "Killary" forced you to rob the bank.
I'm not justifying it, I just don't get why you think it's as earth shattering as you do.
Because she's a Democrat and he's a Republican, he doesn't need any more reason than that.
There doesn't need to be a gender distinction there, most actors, male or female are picked for their looks, not their brains. The ones like Mayim Chaya Bialik who are actually smart, are a rarity regardless of gender.
You don't seem to get it.
Even if it was supposed to be tongue in cheek, Trump asked for help from the Russians and they gave it. FBI documents have shown that Russia began a spearfishing operation against the Democrats the day after Trump asked for that help.
More basically, a government that wants to see your country fail played a critical role in the selection your country's leadership. You should be pretty concerned about that. They certainly weren't trying to pick the best person for the job.
But, the only thing you can see through your TDS is that President Trump talks most often to the ONLY major news organization that does not actively try to twist every word that comes out of his mouth.
Funny, it was my impression that Fox News was the only news organization actually willing to "actively try to twist every word that comes out of [Trump's] mouth" to make them seem less loathsome.
So far, there are about 4.5 times as many votes on Captain Marvel as Infinity War: Endgame, which considering Captain Marvel is a lower profile movie, is an unexpected result. For Black Panther. I found the last version of the Black Panther page on the Wayback Machine from before it's release, and it shows 26 intention ratings. Not 260, not 2600, just 26.
See what I mean? Captain Marvel's numbers are anomalous.
Sure there is, and you're doing it right now. You pretend that the honest expression of mass opinion is fake, because you disagree with it.
From my point of view, you're pretending what is obviously a co-ordinated effort to game the system is honest opinion, simply because you agree with it.
No more cognitive dissonance to trouble your enclosed world view. Problem solved.
That criticism applies equally well to you.
The thing that makes me distrust the "don't want to view" rating is the anomalously high number of responses. I don't know whether the indications are honest or fake, but it probably doesn't matter because I sincerely doubt the sampling is representative. If someone is actively encouraging people who don't want to see Captain Marvel, for whatever reason, to register that vote on Rotten Tomatoes, then they are manipulating the results.
Yeah, no.
People are going out of their way in very suspiciously large numbers to vote no on it, so it really does look a troll operation. Whether it's Gamergate, 4chan, or Russian trolls, it doesn't really matter. It's obviously a co-ordinated mod bomb.
Well, the sun-powered superhero is obviously a proxy for Superman, however, the people writing the story aren't DC employees and DC wouldn't want to expose a lucrative property like Superman to the potential ridicule that the story could trigger up if it wasn't done well. Also, I get the feeling that the sun-powered superhero is likely to have some un-superman traits, because Superman is a bit too good to contrast well with the direction they are most likely to take with Jesus.
It's later than you think, the joint Russian-American space mission has already begun.
