If Trump hadn't run and instead had endorsed Haley (or basically any other "viable" candidate) that would probably be the case.
But if Trump lost the primary, I would be surprised if we didn't see some of his more die hard cultists stay home or vote for some third party candidate out of spite. Especially since Trump would never take the loss gracefully and endorse the winning candidate.
A lot of people who would have voted no just sold their stock instead.
He talks about it in one of the interviews from the remastered VHS collection. During the fight on the second death star, the script just said "Luke gets angry" and he couldn't figure out how to flesh that out until he came up with threatening Leia.
It's amazing what you can find in your couch cushions.
If what they really cared about was stopping crime, they'd make it an additional charge that could be tacked on when committing crimes. But they don't want that, they want to prosecute and harass protestors in violation of their first amendment rights, and they want to oppose public health measures including mask wearing specifically as a method of preventing the spread of diseases.
Trump wanted to downplay Covid in 2020 because he thought it made him look bad (not understanding that he'd have looked a lot better if he showed some leadership and called for unity against a common threat). Because of that one decision, the right aligned on an anti-health, pro-disease platform that will probably be with us for a generation. The only ways it might go away sooner are if the feds crackdown on it hard (assuming politics and the courts don't stop them), or if a new pandemic spreads with a high enough mortality to rate to weed out those who don't learn the lesson.
He lies a lot, changes positions whenever convenient, and he's pretty much always involved in one legal battle or another. He's basically the lawyer from every lawyer joke minus the law degree.
He does focus groups. It's all about getting more detail, specifics, and answers to open ended questions to (in theory) get deeper insights from a smaller group of people instead of more generic metrics from a larger group. Qualitative data rather than quantitative data.
I wouldn't be surprised if he got those comparisons from participants. But (without actually watching the interview) I would have to assume that he's using those statements to represent mildly negative sentiments about Harris from Republican men, and contrasting it with much more severe negativity among Republican women when it comes to Trump.
Redoing the election only takes pressure off Maduro. It's an empty gesture to appease the opposition for a time, which just gives Maduro room to plan for stealing the next election. And it drags things out for longer, which can easily cause some of the energy to be drained from his opposition, because movements like this tend to fade out after a while.
And what could possibly be the point? If he won't concede this time, next time won't be any different.
Better to keep putting as much pressure as possible on Maduro and his regime. No reason to make hanging on to power any easier for him, and even if he can't be convinced to bow out gracefully, if things get bad enough for him, the decision might not be his to make.
Just logically speaking, a do over makes no sense because it was never the voting process that was in doubt. Both sides agree that the votes were all valid, they just disagree on the count... by a lot.
Well, they disagree about that and the need for any kind of transparency at all. Apparently Maduro thinks that elections should be run on the honor system.
The original version was the best of the three by far.
People have different tolerances for these kinds of things. Some people never bother to even get an ad blocker. Some won't touch settings no matter how simple. And some want to tweak and modify endlessly.
And don't get me started on modern conveniences.
Amazing how one little letter can make such a big difference.
Skies of Arcadia. I would take a sequel, a prequel, a remake, a remaster, anything. I just want more.
If I recall correctly, the head of the team that made it was asked about the possibility of a follow up many years after it came out and said that the team just didn't have the talent to make a worthy sequel. I respect that, but it still sucks.
