I’ve never voted for a president, I’ve only voted in the primaries for Ralph Nader and Bernie Sanders. And so far Trump is cleaning house. Watching him trounce the governor of Maine was funny af.
- ben_w 2y ago"Funny" isn't a qualification relevant to the office of President. The oval office isn't a comedy stage.
- slowhadoken 2y agoI don’t think the president was joking and the governor wasn’t laughing.
- ben_w 2y agoYou, however, described it with the words: "Watching him trounce the governor of Maine was funny af." It's your error to treat it this way.
- slowhadoken 2y agoAn error by your standards, which is a standard I have no reason to value. By the standards of the US federal constitution the governor of Maine is subordinate to the president of the United States. Maine is also ranked 43 out of 50 in terms of GPD, so by that standard she doesn't have a lot of leverage.
