@plutus @johnserwach @rubecube12 That's some *really serious* narcissism on display there by West, too.
@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @rubecube12
This country, in our self-absorbed and intellectually bankrupt stupor, is not just paving a pathway for trump to escape his date with justice but actually reigniting the possibility that we’d have our democratic foundations retested. We deserve what we are letting happen.

Where have you been. I need back up

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12

Sorry bro, family issues & car breakdown. I’m here for you.

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

Sorry dude! Hope things are okay. Family issues way more important than emotive noises about the past and claims of how the world works created in order to cope

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

The mere fact that Trump won in 2016 and has a path to 2024 - says less about the weakness of our electoral system and says more about the lack of appreciation for civics, ethics, and rule of law that exist not just in our body politik but vapid citizenry broadly - Danny - stop denying these ugly realities that's not as prevalent in other developed societies.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

In sum - we have way more Archie Bunkers per capita than other civil societies

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus

Do we tho? Way more ? Le Pen did quite well with far more baggage running against your “ideal” candidate.

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

Name any country in Western Europe or developed Asia who's had a leader who's as morally, intellectually, functionally bankrupt as DJT or was anywhere near the pulpit in the last 70 years post-war .

How about Farage ?

Burlesconi laid the path. Trump just followed his foot steps. Sconi just followed Orban. BOJO tried and caused economic catastrophe. We should let Orban leave the EU. See how he does without free trade and the single market. Scum

Who was Charles Lindbergh and what was the America First movement - the magaturdiness existed for centuries

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12

They were held in check until Reagan tried to legitimize this garbage

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 Lindbergh wasnt the only one - hitler didn’t rise to power on his own either and never got 50% of the vote. Trump has about 25% here, 1/2 the country doesn’t vote. There’s your problem.

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

Yeah trump has 50% of 30%. That's the GOP primary. He's gonna win it again. They have plurality winner take all. Unlike Dems which have proportional delegate allocation

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12

Now if trump. Eventually drops out- it gets interesting.

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12

Cornel West will see to that...
The Commies and nazis in full alliance to take down the middle.

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12 never even heard of him until today- and I doubt anyone else has either- he’s just a grocery clerk- sent to collect the check.
@johnserwach @plutus @rubecube12 You never heard of West?

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12

I don’t think so- only West I know is Adam West!

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

Do not underestimate him...
He can connect better than most candidates and many AAs will defect from Biden - I guarantee you

@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

They won't. Obama will tell them to vote for Biden just like he did with Cohen in Memphis

Supreme Court rejects affirmative action at colleges, says schools can't consider race in admission

CNBC

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @plutus It's a bad idea to run on this.

As Damon Linker points out, there is only ONE racial demographic that is opposed to ending it, that being Blacks.

Asians by 2-1 support ending it. And Blacks? Only 53-47 support maintaining racial preference in college admissions.

That's pretty thin gruel.

Of course, the exception for military schools is sordid. But then so is this SCOTUS.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @plutus

Narrator: "We need a racially integrated military so that it can be a world-class performer, but we do not need so much integration at the top of the educational pyramid."

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus the beauty of it is- you don’t have to run on it- none of the African Americans I know are talking about it- but you can see the anger.

The day OJ was found not guilty every random white person was Angry- every random black person had a smile on their face. It was bizarre- today is the mirror image.

I would agree that we were much more stringent on the oligopolies of the 1900s than we are in the current century of FANG bros...
Main reason is that most regulators don't wanna spend the time to learn the intricacies of tech. The other reason is that tech moguls are not looked upon as being maniacal as their standard oil/US steel peers - misguided. Lobbying money also has a lot to do with it.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

What FANG/mega-cap tech has also created is a bastardized version of equity markets where size is the main driver now in performance generation b/c structures like ETFs, target-date funds are designed to pump in capital based on market cap. It's a self-fulfilling circle jerk where winners take all.
This is the reason why stocks in IWM can't get a lick of capital flow - there is a huge design flaw.

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance

Appreciate what older ppl bring to the table in terms of knowledge Danny - stop trying to reinvent every concept...
