I can tell you guys from personal experience that while I am all for "keeping one's head down and going to class" a whole lot of it depends on what you (and I mean they) do WHILE they're in class. I have had a small army the past couple of semesters who come to class pretty regularly but while most of them can memorize and regurgitate data they aren't really LEARNING a damn thing except how the world owes them everything they want because of their "cool-ness factor" and familial connections.
 
I am not sure how much good news there is to report about the young Trump Administration.

He has gotten his ass kicked at every turn.

Now his son in law is facing charges of treason.

How is that to be spun as anything but negatively.

McVonnel has all but voceded his health care and budget proposals are DOA..

You can put a ribbon on a pig but not a pig on a rinbon

Or, somethong like that.

Go back to Europe. Ing

There's a difference between a hard question from a reporter and a reporter whose an ass and really trying to start **** than ask a hard question.

Got it, so asking him to defend ****ty legislation that he publicly supported is grounds for a choke slam.

America might be doomed if he won the votes cast after the incident. Amazing that people could think he is the kind of person who can handle the stress of Congress after literally assaulting someone over a tough question.

Uh, "stress of Congress"? That's a knee-slapper.

When I first heard about this story I actually thought it was a plant by the campaign. Throwing an aggressive liberal journalist to the ground, telling him to 'get the hell out' etc. Given Montana's electoral politics, that move undoubtedly won him votes.

So, is throwing journalists you don't agree with around the room, out a closed window, through a door, etc., going to be the new "Standing up to Obama"? Your thoughts...

Big fan of holistic and complex understandings of systemic causality, as opppsed to simplistic and reductive "bootstraps" moralizing, actually.

Funny how the blacks that do thrive in those schools and get out always mention how they did it by studying and not being on the streets

But I know; life's unfair, someone else's fault. B

It's not a ridiculous proposition. Dude violently snapped when asked a question he didn't want to answer. There are GB of footage of reporters chasing reps through the halls and swarming them in doorways, "aggressively" asking questions...hell, just during the ACHA kerfuffle. It goes with the territory. It's also odd that you choose to call the reporter, who did not transgress at all, "aggressive" when it was Gianforte who crossed every personal, professional, and criminal line in the interaction. I don't necessarily disagree with you about the electoral spin, but you seem to be somewhat callously normalizing some pretty ****ty and thuggish behavior.
