I'm not sure that argument really works as you think it does, because the key part is you actually need someone on the inside, which is kind of what the whole issue is about with Bernie, progressives want their guy on the inside. Your problem is you position the debate between Republicans and...

So let me see if I've got this right. There are people out there that think the only people who are Vegan/Vegetarians in the Middle East are Jews and the only ones in South Africa are white, and you think that they think this because those people think that Israeli Jews and white South Africans...

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/08/obama-trump-biden-coronavirus-leadership-poll-173346 According to Politico polling, that's what people currently believe. Despite the fact that apparently 50% of people think Trump isn't doing enough about the crisis, 44% of people believe Trump is...

Couldn't they have at least tried to make it not look like a Mario-ripoff? They're just asking for legal trouble. It's not like it really needed the Mario element to make the joke (though I use the word loosely) work.

As I said, I'm not weighing in on either side, just providing the context.

I don't particularly want to get involved in this conversation, but I thought I'd add something to the discussion by noting a few points of interest with the sourced article. 1) The rise in approval in the article proper refers to two Gallup polls which now show net-positive. The article itself...

So Republicans don't want Giuliani to testify because he could expose dirty dealings between Republicans and a foreign nation?

Actually... Cummings wasn't disagreeing with the hearings being initially closed doors, at least according to the quote you used.

I'm not sure I follow your logic, if Rudy testifying would clear up that it was Ukraine that was pushing for an investigation into Biden and/or that the Trump admin wasn't doing anything wrong, how is Giuliani going to be taking down republicans?

That narrative has already been set though, through subpoenas already being defied, Mulvany refusing to testify and Giuliani saying he won't testify (and now, I believe, Trump saying he won't get involved with Inquiry). I also find it interesting that even in the face of Giuliani refusing a...

That would be because I wasn't trying to contradict, but to explain. You were using Giuliani not being subpoenaed to testify as evidence that the Impeachment Inquiry wasn't interested in getting, at least, the Trump teams side of the story. I explained Giuliani wasn't subpoenaed to testify...

You posited that Rudy Giuliani and others hadn't been subpoenaed (in an attempt to cast aspersions on the Impeachment Inquiry), I responded that he had in fact refused to comply with a subpoena. My first post was literally one line saying that with a link backing the statement up. I only...

That seems to be their argument. That because the university didn't offer classes, it was obviously a fake, so students getting legitimate visas to study there were coming illegally, as they were coming to enroll at a university they knew was fake.

You mean you'd rather spend your time weaseling out of admitting you were wrong than engage with arguments detailing why you're wrong? Again, you posit that I "accidentally misunderstood [you]", except for the fact the conversation was: You: "Why isn't Giuliani being subpoenaed to testify?"...

Considering that nothing that I wrote indicated that I'd misunderstood either your initial premise of "Why isn't Giuliani being subpoenaed?" or the article I linked, yes, I consider suggesting that I didn't understand either in order to justify you not acknowledging your mistake an insult. At...
