24. Don't need to listen to Rachel

Specifics mean nothing. For all full year we've been treated to Rachel broadcasts loaded with specifics. H20 Man routinely posts threads here weaving specifics with historical reference points.

I'll continue to insist none of it matters. You can't evaluate any of this based on 1974 without fooling yourself and anyone who pays attention to you.

Big picture prevails. Trump is a life long liar and cheat. That's not 30 years of doing it, where he would still be prone to mistakes and misjudging the terrain. It's more than 70 years of low life cheating. It happens to now coincide with a Republican Party determined to cheat in terms of whose votes get counted, and everywhere else. They are currently breaking rules that we don't know the existence of. When he supposedly disbanded the voter fraud commission a few days ago it was obviously merely redirected to friendlier terrain in Homeland Security. The presidency is not designed to foil someone with ethics of this type while his equally ruthless party controls matters. If any Republican testified under oath nowadays, would that oath mean anything at all? It's just exercise of that right arm and hand.

He will get away with everything. Our focus should be to register as many young voters as possible. Right now it's avalanche territory in terms of how those registrations would fall. It will have significance in forthcoming decades, to prevent another Trump.
