I’m a republican, I was the throat goat until Ronnie made an honest(ish?) woman out of me. Now I assume all other women are ho’s and make all my life decisions based on this false assumption.
See: welfare mother who keeps having kids to get rich??? or something?
“Why would I vote for a primary party candidate who supports ranked choice voting when I can just throw my vote away on a third-party candidate that will never be elected? I’ve got principles!”
My .02? There’s a large swath of “conservative” women who like the idea of going to church, being a stay-at-home mom, and having a husband that goes to work every day and provides for them. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that life.
But what they found out is the guys espousing that lifestyle actually want to treat their wife as property. There was a solid 30 years of momentum building around “maybe I don’t want to have a two-income household, maybe I just want to be a mom”. Unfortunately, while the women were thinking “we’re partners in this household, I take care of the meals and the kids, you take care of making money” - the dudes were thinking “I own you, you do what I want, I do what I want, if you talk back, I’ll put you in your place”.
a federal abortion ban as president, despite his statements denying support for these things
They straight up asked him the question, and he refused to answer it. So, she didn’t tell a “half truth” - he literally refused to say he would veto a national ban when directly given the opportunity to do so.
As for project 2025, it’s his playbook. Whether or not he will specifically call it that, doesn’t change the fact it’s how he wants to dismantle the federal government.
That’s exactly why he’s complaining. He knows they’ll pull this shit so they can claim to be fair. He may be an idiot, but he’s an expert at manipulating the press.
Yeah, but she’s simultaneously so powerful that she convinced several elected officials in New York to risk prison time by attacking one of her political opponents in exchange for…? Nothing? And oh by the way, he wasn’t her actual political opponent when the prosecution started, 4D chess over there.
But also so stupid she couldn’t pass the bar exam and can’t form a complete sentence without a teleprompter.
Get with it folks!
After the civil war completes, Emperor Walz declares the entire nation will now be known as Minnesota in a show of unification to the rest of the world.
Go back to mother Russia. Just off the top of my head with 30 seconds of thinking about it and no research:
Obama: Implemented “Obamacare” allowing millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions to get affordable healthcare for the first time.
Biden: Limits on predatory interest rates across the board. Limited Insulin prices.
Both of them have actively gone after people and businesses ripping of medicare which universally helps the working class through better care and lower taxes.
But sure, they’ve done NOTHING for the working class.
I sure hope they not only lose, but get further punitive damages for even trying to pull this shit.
They aren’t really gullible. If you watch the youtube videos, it’s pretty much always people that already had their licenses revoked, sometimes permanently. They’re just trying to convince themselves there’s some way to legally drive again.
In the meantime fuck diabetic people, am I right?
Student loan forgiveness with no other action is completely counter-productive. Just like allowing drug companies to charge anything they want for Insulin, and then just having the government pay them is completely counter-productive. The answer to spiraling insulin prices (when not due to a shortage of some key ingredient) is to cap prices, not just pay whatever ransom drug companies are asking.
College costs have spiraled out of control because laws were passed to prevent you from escaping student loan debt through bankruptcy. From a lender perspective there’s almost no risk to giving students as much money as they want to borrow. Colleges in turn realized they could just keep raising prices because students could “afford” pretty much any tuition price through loans. If you just “forgive” all student loan debt, you’ll just encourage colleges to jack up prices even more. Why not? Come one come all, the government is going to foot whatever the bill ends up being!
If you’re going to forgive student debt, it needs to come with 3 things:
You want to find a middle ground with conservatives? Make tuition free for the occupations we have a shortage of to encourage people to go to school for a degree in which there will be a job waiting when they’re done.
We need more teachers? Teaching degrees are free for the next decade. You want to be a marine biologist? You pay whatever the (reasonable) capped state tuition is.
I mean, the dude is nearly as addicted to social media as Musk so it’s entirely possible he’ll read their tweets. But take their advice? Yeah, no, the guy is a narcissist, he doesn’t need advice from anyone.
What happened to white women? Well, she ran for office and you claimed she was unfit for office because women are emotionally unstable and something about emails that magically disappeared as soon as Ivanka got caught ACTUALLY deleting emails.
Is his campaign promising things he doesn’t have the power to do?
A president can do almost NOTHING unilaterally. What they’re promising you is what they’ll support if it makes it to their desk. This is how checks and balances work… if you want to vote for someone who has sworn to be as shitty as possible because the guy who swore to do things you want can’t just snap his fingers and make it happen, I guess nobody can stop you…
What you’re finding is that the Democratic party is still interested in a functioning government where people don’t just vote the party line like a borg - which results in more difficulty passing legislation. Unfortunately, “both sides same” isn’t remotely accurate which you’re finding out.
Fun fact: Biden has already pardoned thousands of people with marijuana convictions. Asking him to pardon EVERYONE when they may have had marijuana as a minor add-on to other criminal charges is a bit silly of an ask.
Biden doesn’t run the DEA and can’t force them to reschedule the drug. This is almost as dumb as the conservatives saying Biden needs to do something about border security then not being upset the Republicans have voted against every effort to do something about border security before it makes it to Biden’s desk.
*the number of people in this country who think the President is a dictator and can literally just make up laws on his own is terrifying.
There is a 100% chance that Trump couldn’t name how many members there are in the house. I’d be shocked if he could list the branches of government without help.
note I’m not saying that’s acceptable. But if that’s your test for “is this a serious candidate” I hate to be the bearer of bad news…
