. that deliberately spread a deadly disease and its virus, tried to change history taught
in Floridas public schools, ... slavery wasnt that bad and the slaves got some good life
skills from their work and Rosa Parks seating on a bus had nothing to do with her race
.
pushing made up shit like CRT & being Woke, and taking away a womans right for health
care. People like Stefanik, DeSantis, Josh Holley, Kennedy, Cruz, and so on with their
advanced Ivy League degrees know right from wrong but if by being wrong helps in the
political and financial careers then so be it because they are working for the fossil fuel
Industries, the health care/insurance/pharma billion dollar companies, the super rich, and
all the time pandering to the mouth breathing Christo Fascist segment of Americas population.
These mother fuckers are below contempt they already have a comfortable life in front of them
but are just tools for the dark side. Last summer when in Ohio we had 20 + days of smoke from
Canadas forest fires we had local Republican shits still denying climate change.

But it is also true that there are some shitty elitist law professors and like recognizes like.
I speak from some experience - although not with Harvard or Yale - and the majority of my law profs were NOT at all shitty or elitist. But ....
Some classmates I knew at law school who could hardly write a coherent sentence on their own often got better grades than I, who as a married mother of teenagers attended law school at an age when most of my peers were nearly 20 years younger.
My subsequent law career was a very satisfying one for me, primarily spent in public service, both at national and international levels.
I sincerely hope that theirs have been satisfying for my former peers. But if they have become like those you mentioned, I truly abhor them.
A so-called top tier uni doesn't necessarily mean top-tier products. As we all know, the true variable is the individal effort put in by the student.

With everything she said publicly about what she would do for the orange twit, she might as well have put on a blue dress and changed her name to Monica.

(12,531 posts)"Would you murder someone in cold blood if Trump told you to?"
She would probably squirm mightily at that, probably completely avoid answering. If she answers "yes", than she shows herself to be a dangerous lunatic cult-member (which she is) but she can't answer "no" because that would show disloyalty to Hair Furor.

(425 posts)I would not be surprised if he picks Stefanik.
It is an ego thing.
He wants to win state of NY.
He has lost the popular and electoral vote of NY, his birth state twice.

(15,386 posts)response! I couldn't imagine her having too many fans in a mostly sane state!

(208,649 posts)She replaced a long time incumbent moderate Democrat who retired. I went to the meet up where he introduced his chosen successor and I liked him a lot, made GOTV calls for him. And when Stefanik inexplicably won, there were protests at her local headquarters from the very beginning. She never publicized her schedule since protesters always showed up. And back then was before TFG came on the scene so she was just a RW Republican, not the insane treasonous MAGA nut job that she's become today!
I attribute the change to her ambition. She votes against bills that could help constituents and like other Republicans, takes credit for the legislation if it passes. And she has the rare phone Town Hall where she blocks those who disagree with her or ask questions that she doesn't like. She now only answers to a constituent of one - at a local Republican meetup on election night 2022 she took pride to be the first to endorse TFG for 2024. And now she's become a national embarrassment!

(6,324 posts)I think she'd love to be VP, but will still run for reelection in the June Congressional Primary in New York.
That way, she can always back out anytime before the July Nominating Convention if it becomes clear that Trump isn't going to win in November.
Personally, my best result of this is for her to commit as VP for Trump, and then have them lose to Biden/Harris in November.
I grew up in the district she represents, and I'd love to see her gone.
