If democrats stay this course they will never hold more than 45% of congress again and only win the white house maybe once every 3 or 4 terms.

Yeah I’m feeling that.

You bring up really good points. How do you go to the large donors and say, “give us more money to help take more money from you”.

Did you listen to the latest tiff between David Hogg and James Carville?

Carville really wants to push progressives out of the Democratic party while keeping their heads in the sand. I think his last rant was because Hogg wants to replace existing Dems (Carville says he should be replacing Republicans). However, I think Hogg wants to do this because these Dems aren’t really doing anything and waiting to pick up the pieces from this Trump administration. I think agree more with Hogg that it’s more important to show the people that you represent them rather than be like: “we’re not the Republicans”.

I’m not an entire fan of Hogg though, he seems a bit inconsistent but I agree with him here.

To be clear, people should have voted for the Democrats. We’re all in the position we’re in because not enough people did. Would you get what you want? No. But we still wouldn’t be in the mess otherwise. I mean, assuming the election wasn’t stolen.

That being said, all these older people that don’t seem interested in fighting for their people need to be purged from the Democrats. I don’t know if it’s because they’re really old or out of touch or what. There’s a thirst for people to want representation for them to fight (as seen by the AOC and Bernie rallies). I think their inactivity isn’t helping for the most part. Also, they need to get some more names out there.

I remember growing up in the UK and Disneyland or Disney world was always a bit of a joke about giving loads of offers but no takers.

Then again, it wasn’t until I met Americans growing up did I realize how seriously they took Thanksgiving too.

I don’t know what pisses me off more. The fact that the Republicans talk like that or that a good portion of people don’t see what’s wrong with it.

I’m 42 and my parents recently moved in with me. Someone killed me.

I’ve seen people go into areas hit by Trump and then whining about how Trump would make prices better for them and he’s hurt them instead. Then they ask if they’d wish they’d vote them and they reflexively answer “no”. It’s like cultural. They would vote for these morons no matter what.

Wow. it’s a real article: https://newrepublic.com/post/193725/donald-trump-israel-hostages-nazis-jewish-prisoners-love

Same, it counts my steps and it measures my runs/swims. It’s a Garmin. I don’t really have it configured for notifications or anything else.

Twice impeached and he was almost assassinated.

Also, multiple investigations and stuff into him. Corrupt Republicans have his back.

US Senator apparently went there and was refused entry and everything.

Republican fanboys are calling it a political stunt.

It wouldn’t be anything if they didn’t fuck up to begin with.

I remember being in uni when George W got elected the first time. I recall my uni friends were saying there’s no point taxing the rich because they’ll always find another loop hole. I guess we should realize they’d never stop. They’re never like, “hmm that’s enough”.

Remember, it isn’t important until some fuckwit understands it is.

You only say that because you don’t see what they’re doing behind the scenes.

For example, they’re putting lots of money into think tanks to dissuade the public from even talking about taxing the rich: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rQg24dralYY

Obama called out Fox News before, I remember something like all the other news organizations backed Fox News. They claimed an attack on any one of them was an attack of all of them or something.

I was gonna say they could look at a photo but I’m assuming that if were the case they wouldn’t be flat-earthers.

I mean despite them being able to use telescopes and seeing other spherical shaped planets.

Watch them get it and then praise Trump and MAGA again.

Yeah but imagine if a black woman had done it. We’d need to question her abilities as a black woman and call it woke and stuff. /s

For coding, I treat it as an overly enthusiastic junior-mid.

It’s also great because I’m learning terraform and I just don’t want to look up the syntax. I just tell it to add something and it’ll do the lookup for me.

It gets it wrong sometimes which is where I need to do the lookup but it definitely has its uses.
