I live in NYC and used to work in the Wall street area.
All the top execs read the Times. There are 8 million people in NY and the Times has about 12 million subscribers.
It's the daily paper of the 0.01%
It's so cute that you think that Richard Pryor's experience with criminals was confined to one movie.
One reason the GOP hated the Unions was that Labor would do a lot of ground level organizing for the Dems. Things like getting petitions signed; driving voters to the polls; putting up signs. The Left failed to step up its ground game when the unions were decimated.
Once you become addicted to praise, it's hard to live without it.
Look at all the third rate actors and musicians who act like God's gift...
Sometimes I feel the need to quote from the greatest thinkers. And other times I fee like I should quote comedians.
Richard Pryor once filmed a movie in a prison. Afterwards he talked about his experience of listening to the prisoners and hearing their stories.
His conclusion was that he was really happy there were prisons.
Since it has no official meaning anyone can use it as they see fit.
What does that even mean?
The Vikings let people go out and raid other villages but drew the line at murdering your neighbor. It that what you're going on about? You think any one who wants should be able to have their own army?
All societies use some form of violence to control people.
Even the Amish 'shun' the malefactors.
It's a commonly used term. The President's family is the First Family. All children are the First Son/First Daughter even if there are several siblings. "First Lady" isn't an official term; it's not mentioned in the Constitution as an actual position but traditionally it is a thing.
435 members of the House of Representatives.
100 Members of the Senate.
535 total.
435 + 34 = 469.
469 x 2/3 = 312.
Also, in US politics, the President and the Legislature [combined House and Senate] and the Supreme Court are each considered one third of the total government.
So, you're wrong twice.
So, it was a coup?
And your question is completely silly. Jack the Ripper didn't attack every single night; does that mean he wasn't a killer?
Treason is funny; it only takes one single instance to mark a fellow for life.
As far as voting goes, you're fine. I've lived at my current address for over a decade and still get letters for the prior resident.
The State of Pennsylvania knows you've moved and the spammers are just sapmmers.
I guess it was too long a read.
One third of the Senate and all of the House of Representatives are elected every two years.
So, I take it that you consider the January 6 coup a case of mild hijinx that hardly had any fatalities?
Obviously you learned nothing.
Socialists failed to get the vote out for Bernie, even when they knew it would be an uphill fight.
Now they are failing again.
I wish I had the privilege of being safe enough not to have to worry about Trump deputizing a bunch of Red Hats and doing mass arrests.

tl, dr = Congress is elected every two years.
Thanks.
Here's my favorite bit of Americana.
"Chin music."
Needless chatter, as when sports fans jeer the opposition.
Or, specifically in baseball, to throw a pitch near the batter's face to intimidate them.
Exactly, if Harris wins there will be another election in two years.
If Trump wins, that's not a guarantee
