Trump's Rasmussen numbers are the worst they've been yet.  Just 38% approval and -25 on strongly approve/disapprove :pinch:

Bring on Pence! :)

Nice pivot.

Spicey has always been rooting for the several year long vacation bible camp that the Pence Presidency would surely be.

Hey, that would only be suffered by you lot, whereas a nucular holocaust launched in a hissy fit of a senile manchild would affect us all.

The rest of the world is just waiting for America to RePence. Bibles and no abortions for all (of you)!

Well, better than the alternative.  ;)

Vacation bible *camp* would probably be more fun than the vacation bible *school* that I endured.  :)

Yeah, that sounds about right for this DOJ's attitude towards civil rights.  Colored folk getting all uppity again, what with the vote and all.  And now booklearning? They need to know their place again.

Won't the Ivies just get taken over by East Asians like the Cali schools did?

If anything does come of this, universities will probably just use a different criterion which correlates strongly with race (probably socioeconomic factors and location.)  The University of Michigan used to have a "Point system" for admissions where you were assigned so many points based on academics, school achievement and the like.  Underrepresented minorities got an additional 20 points (of a maximum 150 points.)  Then there was a ballot initiative which forbade using race for hiring or college admissions for state institutions.  So Michigan (after a series of lawsuits) dropped their point system and went with a "Holistic Approach" where they gave greater consideration to underrepresented area or socioeconomic factors.

Overall the number of African Americans at Michigan dropped; but they aren't able to use underrepresented location as a consideration for out of state students, while the Ivies can.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Are you suggesting the Ivies are holding back the Asian menace?

They used to keep us safe from the Jewish menace.   :Joos

If Trump truly wanted to stick it to the elites (I'm sure he doesn't), he should have the Justice Department investigate preferential treatment given to children of wealthy donors at elite universities.  Oh the lamentations and weeping and great mourning we would hear from Washington DC at that.

Damn as a teen, I could have made a killing. Lure them in with my scriptural knowledge then hit them up with the carnal desires.

So the first significant piece of legislation passed and signed by Donald is sanctions against Russia because he was forced to by overwhelmingly bipartisan agreement in Congress lmao  :lol:

Is this the weakest the Executive Branch has ever been in American history?

Admittedly, Donald will have the last laugh when the sky turns to ash and the seas boil over next spring.
