Mlle. Zabzie Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I’ll just move us several centuries forward... “Someone had blundered. Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do and die. Into the valley of Death Rode the 600.” Take that how you want as applicable to now.

S John Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 It’s probably too soon but I wonder if there is any reliable data on Trumps current approval rating. He’s been so steadfast at 40-45% for nearly his entire term I’m curious if the bottom has fallen out. Certainly seems like the rats are fleeing the ship when it comes to elected officials and members of the administration, but I’d be more reassured to see some data on whether or not a decent portion of the rank and file are heading for the exits.

If you squint hard enough, the 538 average of his approval rating has slowly slid from ~43 to ~41.9, but there havent been too many of those polls occuring after the beer belly putsch.

Myshkin Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I just want to jump into the comma versus colon debate real quick; the punctuation mark you are all looking for is the semicolon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 11 minutes ago, Chataya de Fleury said: No double fisting. Just...ah, whatever floats your boat. With one thread open. Does that mean single fisting is "Game on" or is it, "No, Doulbe fisting." There was some discussion of the proper use of commas on the other thread. It would be ironic. 10 minutes ago, kairparavel said: The Trifecta!

However, the comma was necessary, no matter what. * As you can see, I didn’t follow my usual preference of two complete sentences. I used a dash, for emphasis, which is still correct, as would have been a semicolon. I use semi colons all the time. I have no idea if I'm doing it right. Just what feels natural to my brain and stinky digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 So ty, now that he is banned, how will you yanks cope? I mean, I just assume you are so used to stand up, do a roman salute and yell: Tweet Heil! by now. How long will it take to get rid of that Pawlow reflex?

Fez Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Per McConnell, since the Senate is in pro forma sessions until January 19, it would require unanimous consent to consider any impeachment articles (or anything else) before then. Assuming UC is not given, January 20 or January 21 is the earliest that the impeachment articles could be given. He doesn't give any opinion on impeachment itself; other than to say that because Trump would no longer be a sitting president at that point, its unclear whether John Roberts would still have to presiding officer or not. So 25A is the only option for keeping Trump from power through inauguration day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 1 minute ago, Chataya de Fleury said: The lack of a comma after the word “no” means that clearly, single fisting, i.e, one thread in hand, is “game on”. Just my feeble attempt at humor concerning the start of the last thread. Or maybe the one before that. It's hart to keep track. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
