I'm my opinion Trump won _only_ through emotional manipulation (remember "croocked hillary"?); in many other nations (e.g. Germany) its usually a bit of rational arguments and a bit of emotional manipulation, not only the lat

Yep; for experiments like this to work you need a judicial system with a level of pragmatism that doesn't exist in the US; that is, to give some very high value to the ability of the non-repeated offenders to go back to e.g. support th

Not at all; some simple effects like a stick-to-the-top header usually require cloning such element using JavaScript; and even if such effects are not needed right now they may be added in the near future, so no, there is not a single time
