Messandei is 8 in the books (I believe she's a faceless man) so they don't get it on. But Dany never lost the dothraki and pentoshi maids she had in book/season 1, so they fill that role.

I don't think they know what to do with Sansa. They don't want to make her a villain, and the scene they showed her ruling was just laughable. Like she would know more about armor than commanders and blacksmiths.

I doubt Jon returns home this season, so they're trying to show she's a ruler.  But they never set her up for this. They set her up to deceive, and I don't see them having her follow through on that fucking over Jon.  Bran's the wise one and Arya is the tough one. Sansa just doesn't really fit in her story. But if they can show her holding the North together in a conflict, maybe they can turn her deception training into just realizing how the game is played, and using that realization to protect hers.

Euron has been fantastic and it's good to have a real villain again. I think his time is at an end though. The dothraki and unsullied are both on land. His sea threat isn't much anymore. I just don't see him being part of anything big since we know from the season trailer they'll be headed north soon. The only place he could raid is Old Town, and what's really the point?

If they're going to pair up Dany and Jon, they need to establish both of them as strong characters otherwise you rob either of their past actions and arc. Creating conflict early on is a way to them to win each other over.  I really don't see anyone else for her to pair with. She can't marry Theon. Jorah's a no. That leaves Jamie, Tyrion and Robin Aryyn. Jon looks best setup, considering his parentage.

No idea on Arya's long game though. Getting to King's Landing to clip Cersei doesn't seem likely soon. So we'll see what happens. I don't see how her faceless skills help against the Night King.

I watched it too. My question is, who defends the shit Trump says?  Who defended his McCain comments?  Who thinks any of that shit Maher quoted is ok?  No one on this forum has defended it. In fact, everyone has condemned it.

We're all in agreement it's stupid and embarrassing. Even Fox News mocks him for this. I don't think there's any real contingent that thinks it's appropriate. Claiming there's any large group who thinks it's acceptable is making a parody of the truth.

Talk about being a headline only reader.  But back to that whole consistency thing, I opposed the Snowden, Manning, Podesta and WH leaks.  You've been all over the map depending on how it suited your world view.  Using Trump as an example of an intellectual is your first mistake, but I refer to my original statement.  Anyone who is giddy at these leaks between world leaders getting out, doesn't give a fuck about America and is a morally bankrupt person, only happy to see their political enemies fall.  You should really watch GoT.  I think you'd identify with Cersei quite a lot.
