Both parties are pretty much equal at corruption and dishonesty.

Mr. Obama went "against the norm" with his use of executive orders, but what he did was not against the law.

"Norms" are not "laws."

1. "Reproductive Rights" = "The right to kill unborn babies."

2. Who is "sky man?"

All of the above are worthy of serious consideration, in my opinion.

funny when it helps you, you find easy analogy (1) but are on the heavy trolling side when it doesn't suits you (2).

The government controlling women's bodies, telling its citizens who they can love and marry, forcing your religious beliefs on other citizens etc.etc.

30% of American taking the other 70% of this country back to the 50's America = Gloves come off


DC statehood, no filibuster, appoint 3 SCOTUS judges, pass voting rights act, climate change, tax the super rich, corporations must pay a minimum tax.

Garland was judge with wide support on both sides of the political aisle, blocking his confirmation was done with a complete lack of respect of democracy. It wasn't blocked "democratically", it was blocked with process in committee, in order to ensure that a vote couldn't take place in full assembly - because they knew the vote would pass with great ease.

And it was done in order to later ensure that SCOTUS judges with the most minimal of support could pass, even going so far as to remove the rule that required more than minimum majority for SCOTUS appointments.

If you "love democracy", this should disgust you. And it shouldn't be a question on "who did it" or "who started it", it should be an observation that it is done by congress and that things are completely and utterly messed up.

If someone is not responding to you becasue they believe you to be a manipulative narcissist, it's likely not a good look to essentially call them a coward looking for a safespace when they ignore you.

Sorry, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose and you can't expect to win every time regardless of the quality of your ideas so none of this really matters when it comes to should they be forced to take an L

I disagree. The US Senate is a check on the Executive Branch. While we may have contempt or disagreement for the political motives behind whatever action is taken, it's a fact of the US political machine that political motivation has always been and always will be behind these moves. I know the loud mouths want to say the GOP is worse than the DNC, but that's bullshit becasue they agree when it's the DNC doing **** like this, so they don't see it as that bad. I think the naivety and outrage at this reality is not real.

If anything, this signifies the importance of winning elections, both Congressional and for the POTUS. Once again, Democrats don't want to appeal to anyone other than their base, or they are stuck up their own assess. This is why they lose elections. The voters installed a GOP-led senate. It disgust you that the GOP is doing things that favor the GOP voters?

That's how it was conceived, that's not what it is.

What were they checking with MG ?
How was he unfit for the job ?

Remember the president gets to pick who he wants, the senate advises and consents, they don't get to pick who they want.

How was the stealing of a SCOTUS pick not an open display of disdain for our democracy ?

Putting conservative judges on the bench is at the core of the GOP platform. They were voted into power. They take steps to see conservative judges are put on the bench. It's a stunningly clear example of what occurs in a Democratic Republic.

A minority of voters installed the GOP Senate, just like a minority of voters installed the President and no voters installed the Supreme Court. Biden is like 50/50 with a sustained 3 point lead and is something like 75/25 with a sustained 7 point lead. Democrats have already reached out beyond their base and beyond the majority of voters. Stop it with the pathetic mewing about "why won't the Democrats win me over?".

That's bullshit. The DNC can compete for those voters.The DNC can't sell their ideas. That's not because they system is stacked against them. It's because they are not convincing. Maybe if they stopped calling everyone on the right racist...but what do I know.

The will of the people are what is important in a Democratic Republic.


The vast majority of American Citizens don't want the government controlling what a women can do with her body. The government telling its citizens who the can love or marry. Getting rid of pre-existing conditions in a pandemic. They hear the case right after the election. Voting rights, racial inequality etc. The public is in a different place than conservative judges.


30%-35% of America does not get to dictate who they love, control their body and how blacks are treated. We are not going back to the 50's. The vast majority don't what that to happen,

Again, bullshit. Go earn their vote. Tell them why your idea is better and convince them (remind them Democrats have led most metro area cities where minorities live, and the Democrats are supporters and enablers of systemic racism (including purportedly racist PD's) for decades, while calling these rural voters "racist" over and over again.

They already did! And they won! They seem to have the majority of voters! They obviously can't win a supermajority of voters but no one in an industrial democracy is expected to.

Stop thinking it's not the United States.

That's exactly what people are saying. The structure of the US electoral system favors one party who then write the rules to favor itself even more so that the other party must win more and more votes in order to win, making its odds of winning less and less.

Which is bad, but what's worse is listening to the most coddled voters in the world outside a dictatorship tell people that they should have to win the sea doo dealership owners who want to see people executed by firing squads or else 'them's the breaks'

Go win Wyoming's Senate seats instead of complaining about how you need to change the rules because you can't do that. But yeah, you all don't like the state system which is at the bedrock of our nation, the constitution, as indicative of the name and the constitution. It was never intended to be a homogenous nation, but a union of states with their own governments and representatives. It's not surprising the D's support federal overreach into state voter prerogatives. There is no way I would live in CA, but the DNC wants to make sure CA values are Wyoming's values. The state system was meant to be as check on the feds. You don't like that check for some reason.

Fact check: Hillary Clinton convinced 3 million more Americans than Trump that her and the Democrats ideas were better.

Fact Check: States representatives elect POTUS and Senators, state voters elect those representatives and senators, not the national popular vote. You need to win states. It's been that way since the start. There is nothing un-democratically un-republic about this. We are the United STATES, and the state system being a bedrock of our nation, and a check on centralized power.

...

People seem to have forgotten that Rs were on record when it was assumed Hilldog would win that they were planning to block her nomination too

Sure there is. Just like you don't want California and New York deciding whats best for the rest of the country, we dont want South Dakota, Utah etc. deciding whats best for us.


Regardless of the rules. Your point was to make your case, Convince them to vote for your party. 3 million more Americans did. You need a new talking point. Go check Fox News and come back when you got one.
