    I hope we get rid of all these bastards once and for all. Their entire party and platform is and always has been a giant fucking sham that preys on the gullible.

    Hopefully! The world would be a far better place. Globally and domestically.

    Conservative policies just have their own heads up their asses sucking Trump’s rich spoiled cock

    What’s really happened is we’ve had our global dominance thrown away. We took the lead because of WW1 and WW2. It’s not because we’re great. It’s not because we manifested our destiny to become the leader of the world. It’s because factories in Europe were bombed to smithereens. That’s what allowed the U.S to achieve financial dominance. Now we’re in the fall.

    I hope this leads into demolishing republican party and moving on from the clearly faulty two party nonsense of a system. You can’t keep functioning if you’re on the verge of becoming authoritarian regime with oligarchs.

    First time ever that I hope Rand Paul is correct. Don’t threaten me with a good time Rand Paul!

    What will probably happen is a one or two term slump. What’s different between then and now is the internet and social media, which fills most people’s brains with a deluge of noise. In addition to the effects of misinformation daily telling people that the moon is the sun, most algorithms prioritize novelty, and nothing’s more novel than the most stupidly wrong-headed take. We constantly hear the opinions of people who should be laughed out of the room! We sit and chuckle, but there’s tens of millions of people who have poor media skills who it can actually influence.

      We may have a perfect storm, so to speak. Economic stupidity will lose them dominance. However, hopefully, by the time they would gain again we’ll have a die off of boomers and other retired that come out to vote more now. We’ll have a refresh of retired voters. Gen X is coming up. From my small sample of us, we’re more Democrat leaning. Hopefully a wider sample size is the same.

    And whoever that fuckung prick was on the show clearly still defends Trump and says he has the intuition? This dude bankrupted four casinos. Just die already
