Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Here's how we'll drive Trump crazy for as long as he's in office if not longer. Sports and other achievements tainted by some unusual conditions get noted with an asterisk. Let's spread the word - always refer to him as President* Trump. Or just President Asterisk. Start a Twitter topic #President*Trump.
Letters to editors, President* Trump. Signs at protests, President* Trump. Or signs with just a Yuge *.

I had not decided on my sign for the Sat. March in Atlanta.
President* Trump
*Citizens United
Voter suppression
Putin's hacking
FBI dirty tricks
Thanks!
Otoh, since it's Atlanta maybe I should just go with "Illegitimate" in honor of Rep. John Lewis.
Speaking of Rudy, WTF?

Howz about KGBI instead of FBI? Too confusing?

Probably, especially if it ends up in a media shot.

That'll give him a permanent asterisk in the history books.
President* Pence.

Virtually no one here knows that. But given the increasingly blatant political nature of the FBI, and the blatant misdeeds by Comey, I will continue to use "KGBI."

Streaming an inauguration feed on YouTube. This is the best chance we'll ever have to watch time-travellers try to stop an event.

I wonder what news items will be quietly released and actions will be quietly taken by politicians and corporations around the world, while the inauguration is dominating the news.

You assume that time travel tech will be controlled by people other than the forces of evil.

The forces of evil are still capable of long-term thinking. A bull in the china shop can hurt them too.

My tongue in cheek point was that President* Trump heralded their rise to dominance. Think 1000 Year Reich.

Time traveller from the past: "So what happens to the old President when the new one is sworn in?"
Present day citizen: "See that machine with the whirling blades? We stick him in that and fire him into the air."

Says the butthurt one angrily protesting that people still find the criticisms of Trump to be increasingly valid.
You got conned. Your candidate appointed the worst of the swamp. Deal with it.
