Three Professors of Psychiatry call for "neuropsychiatric evaluation"

I was only pointing out that declaring Trump to be unfit to serve is not the same thing as nullifying the election results. The election still happened, and trumpet still elected.

Yep, and assuming that neither the EC nor the House will deny him office, then this particular letter might only be worth future "I told you so" points. But I'm pretty sure their real intent was just to get people noticing and thinking about what's happening here. You wouldn't know it from the mainstream media, but many people have been alarmed about this since DJT announced, but not many seemed to care, apparently because they didn't take him seriously.

But the only legal remedies I see are impeachment or Section 4 of Amendment 25.

From what I've read, heard and seen, some Trump supporters are working through their own sense of loss. He is not a reassuring leader, IMO. Someone this petulant, who taunts a country gratuitously and is apparently verbally incontinent, really wasn't the first choice for a lot of Republicans. "Keep the drone, we don't want it anyway." (Paraphrasing). Is he really that blind to the glaring implication of his off-the-cuff comment? If I were in the U.S. military I'd be having an absolute cow.

Trump: Let China keep stolen U.S. hardware
Trump response cedes U.S. military tech to China
Trump would let China reverse-engineer Navy drone

These are all literally true. CNN's idiotic headline is "Trump slams Beijing."

The whole country lost something IMO. Coherent speech and depth of thought in the White House. I agree though that the letter from the Harvard shrinks is extremely silly.

Also: Elisabeth Kubler-Ross was not that into her own "five stages" theory. She made it up to describe what dying people experience. Turns out there is no set sequence of stages, and not necessarily 5, even according to her. The theory has been applied across the board to a ridiculous extent.

No. I believe we should expand the house by at least 100 seats.

The House? That's the one branch of the Federal Government with the gerrymandering problem while you'd be ignoring the population to Senator mismatch and the seriously outdated and impossible to continue to justify Electoral College.

I believe we should repeal the 17th amendment.

State sovereignty. I'm an Arizonan before I am an American. Much like the Scots of the united kingdom, there is a role in maintaining some semblance of balance between the semi sovereigns themselves.

News for Bob: That is considered a right wing position whether you believe it is or not.

That doesn't make it right-wing by definition.

What policy positions are right-wing "by definition?" Skeptic Ginger said state sovereignty was "considered to be" right-wing, which is certainly how I've thought of it; I'm not aware of any left-wing associations.

The ones that are logically entailed by the definition of "right wing"

The fact that right-wingers prescribe to "state sovereignty" doesn't entail that "state sovereignty" follows from being right-wing.

Ah, so if the definition of "right wing" is "the conservative or reactionary section of a political party or system," then you agree that States Rights qualifies? Or do we need more definitions?

But how about, as a result of that association, state sovereignty is "considered to be" right-wing?

I never said it wasn't. Libertarians have a large set of views that you can place all over the left right paradigm.

Whatever.

It's a stupid argument. Sorry you and Bob don't like the GOP taint right now. Libertarians certainly have more values that align with the right wing at the moment.

The GOP can't taint me because I have never supporters then.

If you want to argue that libertarians are mostly right wing, despite all the anti right wing positions, that is fine.
