We've enjoyed three of the greatest weeks in politics in years, and perhaps in our generation. Hopefully even more good news is yet to come.
Looks like he just never made it to the A-list, probably due to his choice of projects to be a part of. His longest-running show was "Rosewood", but I have never heard anyone mention that it's a series worth watching.
I had never heard of "MAGA Granny" before this, which makes me think that she was a person that the left has been focusing on in order to spread the left's narrative.
That may reveal more about the slant of the MSM than anything else.
Makes you wonder if BBC News is going to profile any of the other cases of J6 pardons in which people were given huge sentences for relatively mild activities, or for any of the cases that may have involved the use of government torture under international standards.
Some people are saying that the documents will still contain a lot of redacted stuff. That might be true, but the sheer amount of files should still be very illuminating. More importantly, it shows the American people that their government is willing to tear down the veil of secrecy.
I'm a Trump fan, but I never thought that the #metoo movement was designed specifically to target him. Rather, it seems like it grew out of the Harvey Weinstein scandal in Fall 2017, and in the aftermath it was a way of "outing" other successful, "respected" men who had gotten away with (alleged) sexual harassment.
Since Trump has long had a reputation for being a playboy of sorts, allegations of sexual harassment against him weren't exactly scandalous in the way they were scandalous for other professional men. The whole Stormy Daniels story seemed like a side story more than anything else.
I think you're correct about your views on Quayle vs. Vance. Politics today are different than they were in the late 80s, and some things that are normal today would have been unusual to voters back then. Quayle was skewered as being a "boy" by the media, so much so that I think they had a child actor portray him in SNL skits of the time. I know that JFK was young when he became president in the 60s, but once we had a string of modern presidents - Clinton, Obama - who were also in their 40s, I think it helped change expectations among voters.
If only I had a dime for every time an Anti-Trumper made a prediction about impending doom for or at the hands of Trump, I might be a rich man...
Moviechat being a "ghost town" isn't really a fair comparison as IMDB had been around since the early 2000s when many people were still getting on to the internet for the first time as a regular part of their lives.
