It's not as significant as you think. All automakers will still be working on electric and other tech to get vehicles more efficient and less polluting. The US isn't the biggest dog in the room anymore; as long as China sticks to its goals, everyone will have to engineer to that.
And once oil goes up, or the next administration decides that we DO need to worry about pollution, the tech will be ready to go thanks to Europe and China
Make college free but hard to get in. We shouldn't make kids think college is the only path. Trade schools, vocational training, are worthy goals as well
Agreed. Until/unless there's a motive, you can't decide whether this guy is a terrorist.
Remember the song "I don't like Mondays"? That was about a girl who shot classmates, and her only motive was the title of the song. That's not terrorism.
"Take away the government’s behavior modification of throwing our own tax money at others to buy EV and sales would drop like a rock"
You're right. But government has always had a role in behavior modification--if it's clearly better to have EVs and clean energy (for political reasons as well as environmental) then it's appropriate for some intervention to get the market going.
I have to think you know zero gay people. Every gay person I know, and I know several, came from stable homes without "circumstances" that drove them into gayness. They were born that way. Many tried to avoid it but ultimately could not
Why does Cruz think it will be different if he were POTUS directing this repetitive strategy? Either he really doesn't and doesn't care, or it will be different in his mind because not Obama.

Yes, I could see this. Frankly I'm running out of my capacity to be outraged.
Holy God. How is this even being discussed? Yes, let's introduce more nukes into the world's most unstable area.

Completely agree with every word you wrote. Who knew the Middle East would be so difficult for Jared to solve?
good idea. Enrage the olds. Although I imagine they'd literally grandfather in the existing recipients so as not to lose all those GOP voters.

That's the same color as the Diet Coke button! Who knew it would be so complicated?
Well, the man did say "IF" Trump were normal. So yes, he would never write anything like this
Did anyone ask Reince what stories in particular he felt were without basis in fact?
My question is: if Trump doesn't have proof of his accusation, does this meet the level of legally actionable slander/libel?
still, most republicans think he's doing a great job. Until the Repub approval rating drops at least 20 points, it isn't going to matter
Honestly, what (imagined?) problem does this purport to solve? I'm truly baffled.
"And I no longer have much hope that these false ideas can be challenged by mere evidence and rational argument"
This is possibly the scariest (and truest) thing I've read in the last 6 months.
Damn. I love Bacevich. I wish Trump would read this but sadly this piece exceeds 140 characters.
But the only sentence he really needs to take to heart is: Does further war promise to solve any of my problems?
And the answer, after the commercial break, is NO.
As usual, I find myself almost completely in agreement with Bacevich.
Hillary's signs should read NBC: Not Batcrap Crazy. Because Donald most definitely IS. I can take conventional political frustration over insanity.

But they didn't talk about anyone's genitalia, so there's that
