I’m just curious, other than not being Trump, what qualifications does Oprah have for being President?

Being Oprah.

I agree with Jeebus and CatBus but I think this is a good answer.

What qualifications does Warbler have for being President?

Being Warbler.

What qualifications does Frink have for being President?

Being Frink.

What qualifications does Mrebo have for being President?

Being Mrebo.

😦

I’m pretty sure both yhwx and Mrebo were joking, though.

Am I, though? Oprah has very high favorable ratings, especially among Democrats. Oprah is liked.

I’m not saying that I would support her; I’m just making a case for her.

It is not answer at all.

See?

Yes, but all of these people aren’t successful businesspeople with a large TV audience.

Well, how else would a ground assault look like? Walkers have been established as an effective force, if they came up with somehting new, people would ask “where are the walkers?”. Also, trenches are a very common defense against ground attacks and if there wasn’t a rebel base, what else would be the target of a ground attack? And the planet is nothing like Hoth.

I also must have missed the scene in Empire, where the Empire blasts a huge door away, or the TIE fighters joinging the ground attack or where Han flies directly at the enemy force to sacrifize himself, or Luke facing Vader to buy his friends some time.

Umm, just have terrain that doesn’t suit walkers such as in R1 where Cassian is trying to assassinate Jyn’s father?

The TIE fighters being there and Millenium Falcon dropping in out of no where (with accompanying “WOOO!” except it’s not Han saying it this time) to save the lone ship flying in a straight line (like in a trench) as the last hope in destroying “old Death Star tech” just before it fires on the Rebel base, is an element taken straight out of ANH and mixed into the recycled TESB battle of Hoth. Having just written that out, I’ve just realised it is literally the final trench run by Luke from ANH inserted in the battle of Hoth v2 except that it’s a Death Star cannon instead of the Death Star itself and Finn never reaches it in time to destroy it before it fires because of Rose. There’s two subversions right there for you once you realise it’s the Death Star trench run v2 (or should I say v4 since it’s kinda repeated in ROTJ and again in TFA against the Star Killer Base).

TLJ is literally riddled with recycled OT scenes and themes among other elements.

This is really stretching here.

Now that Russian collusion, after one year of intense study, has proven to be a total hoax on the American public, the Democrats and their lapdogs, the Fake News Mainstream Media, are taking out the old Ronald Reagan playbook and screaming mental stability and intelligence…

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/949618475877765120

…Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star…

…to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius…and a very stable genius at that!

Why did he divide that into separate tweets? Is there a character limit for a tweet?

Yes. 280.

The enormous demand for author Michael Wolff’s exposé on President Trump’s White House, “Fire and Fury,” has created a scramble for copies as online and physical retailers struggle to supply their customers. The crowded market has led some antsy readers to look in their local libraries instead, but they won’t find much luck there either at the moment.

“The demand for this book is huge,” said Peter Persic of the Los Angeles Public Library. “It’s comparable to the first day sales of the ‘Harry Potter’ books back in their heyday.

“What makes it especially unusual is [that it’s] a nonfiction,” Persic added. “Usually bestsellers of this type are fiction books. It’s probably our biggest nonfiction bestseller in years, since anyone can remember.”

I just bought it…

Cool picture! What is it of?

This is a Star Wars site Snooker, I don’t have to “get out” as the guy in your black and white picture is motioning. So, I’ve never seen the movie he posted! Sue me! Hehe! I’m sure I’d enjoy it. There are people out there that haven’t seen certain films.

No need to be so hasty. He posted before your post, so it’s an understandable mistake.
