Except the “Small government” is even bigger. The only difference is that all the money gets handed to oligarchs. The Republicans have never reduced spending while in power.
This kind of shit is why the right keeps winning. Even the people that oppose them buy into their framing and repeat their lies and propaganda.
I just want to say one last “Fuck you Kyrsten Sinema, you traitorous piece of shit.”
It was over 14 years, which still comes out to half a liter per day.
I’m sure his conclusion at the end was “We need to build nukes immediately”.
In case you haven’t heard, a bunch of the original KSP developers are teaming up with the DayZ guy’s company to make a spiritual sequel: Kitten Space Agency.
Because it’s Microsoft and they have to compulsively rename things every few years.
Just imagine if he had stuck to his promise of being a one term president and didn’t try to run for reelection.
I am talking about Sinema and Manchin only. They may have had a D next to their name, but they were not on the side of Democrats when it mattered.
Idk, as a white guy, that’s more cringe than offensive. Maybe that’s because I live in the South and can pass for a redneck, but I hear some vile shit from those other white guys fairly often.
Yes, but he’s also claimed support for industry-level collective bargaining like Europe has. He’s probably lying, but who knows.
If they didn’t vote with the Dems when it actually mattered, why should they count?
You mind linking me to that ad?
At least JD is an unknown quantity with some oddly left leaning positions in his past. We know what we’re getting with Trump and it’s terrible.
Obama was a unique situation in that he was both an incredibly charismatic JFK-style figure and ran after the Republicans had managed to both start a very unpopular war and destroy the world economy.
The only hope is that he’s so far gone mentally already that he ends up mostly doddering around the oval office. The problem is he’s already surrounded himself with the most vile people who will have no problem doing terrible things in his name.
Maybe he’ll die and JD Vance will magically regain a conscience.
I think a large part of the problem is that they don’t actually have first-hand experience anymore. Almost everyone who lived through WWII is dead now and humanity seems to be incapable of learning from other people’s mistakes.
No, we didn’t. They had 48 seats, which is not enough to accomplish anything.
The problem is having a contested convention would have been just as bad. We all know what happened with McGovern in '72. The only chance was immediately unifying behind someone else and Harris was the only one people could agree on.
The main stupid decision was Biden not sticking to his word and choosing to run again despite his obvious unpopularity and age.
The death toll up to this point is about 45k. Israel has not settled any land in Gaza or started expelling Palestinians into neighboring countries. There is a lot of room for it to get worse.
