By that comparison sure, but Trump has done way worse in my opinion.

 

Technically we didn’t elect Trump to office by a margin of 3.5 million votes. 
 

Also, water both is and isn’t wet. Humans created the word wet to both describe when water has touched an object, and to describe the feeling of having water in contact with skin. However, “wet” is more a sensation felt by our nerves. Other animals could feel “wet” in different ways, or not feel “wet” at all; meaning that water is both wet and not wet.

 

And your response is the perfect example why the entire politics is a waste of time :lol: Some people are going to even argue the water isn't wet just to win a debate. This is so 21st century when "my way is the only way".

 

Got better things to do than arguing what the word "wet" means. Over and out :water:

Found this tweet highly enjoyable.

 

 

I'll put a few once Senate is done throwing this garbage in the dumpster where it belongs.   And I was so sure that he withheld aid that's why he was impeached.... however.... hmm.... there is no bribery count.... HOW ODD!   probably because THEY...... FOUND..... NOTHING....... 

 

But you and all the liberatds with tds can keep celebrating this IMPEACHMENT as some sort of fascist achievement.  Yet when it really count..... on the Senate vote.    And in November.  The true patriot americans will celebrate.   And that...   that you can bank on

The whole water/wet thing was a big debate in my generation in high school. My response was meant to be more of a light hearted jab. 
 

Also, to be fair. You always seem to forget you’re talking to someone who’s majoring in communications studies, with a potential minor in psychology, and with avid interests in human philosophy and nature, geography, and political theory.

Now had you actually taken the time to read the articles of impeachment, you’d know that bribery is the main charge under the article concerning abuse of power.

Oh no! A sick misspelled burn. Oh, whatever shall I do ?
 

Also, it takes Fascist supporter to know one. 
 

The United States government is set up on a bicameral system where no house is more important than the other. The Senate may carry more weight, but the founding fathers set up the House of Representatives to be the truest voice of the American people. Yes, the true patriots are celebrating tonight.

Well, as espected. Just like the Senate voting not to remove him from office will be expected :p

 

Biggest fool of the night: Scalisse. He called Gordon Sondland, and I quote, "the Democrats' star witness".

 

 

Sondland was a Republican witness :rofl:

Never said Antifa were the true patriots, nor would I defend the majority of their actions. The same goes for the other groups you mentioned. 
 

You also clearly don’t know what a Democratic Socialist is (and neither does the majority of DSA, hence why I’m changing my affiliation in 2020). I believe in strengthening our democracy, and I believe in pursuing socialist policies. However, it is not my wish to have a dictator or one party in power. I not afraid to label my self a Democratic Socialist, I where it as a badge of honor to show people that I true care about everyone.

    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
    • Ukraine twice in one day defeated Italy and France, like what the heck? 
    • Qualified for the Grand Prix Final   Men: 1.  Ilia Malinin 2.  Yuma Kagiyama 3.  Shun Sato  4.  Adam Siao Him Fa 5.  Kevin Aymoz 6.  Daniel Grassl   Final Standings   Women: 1.  Kaori Sakamoto 2.  Amber Glenn 3.  Wakaba Higuchi 4.  Hana Yoshida 5.  Mone Chiba 6.  Rino Matsuike   Final Standings   Pairs: 1.  Deanna Stellato-Dudek / Maxime Deschamps 2.  Riku Miura / Ryuichi Kihara 3.  Minerva Fabienne Hase / Nikita Volodin 4.  Sara Conti / Niccolo Macii 5.  Anastasiia Metelkina / Luka Berulava 6.  Ellie Kam / Danny O'Shea   Final Standings   Ice Dance: 1.  Lilah Fear / Lewis Gibson 2.  Madison Chock / Evan Bates 3.  Piper Gilles / Paul Poirier 4.  Charlene Guignard / Marco Fabbri 5.  Evgeniia Lopareva / Geoffrey Brissaud 6.  Marjorie Lajoie / Zachary Lagha   Final Standings   The Grand Prix Final will be held in Grenoble, from 5 to 8 December.
