How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Can someone explain to me why people hate Nancy Pelosi so much?:patrice: I don’t get it.
It’s amazing isn’t it? You just can’t tell me seriously that sexism isn’t still a huge issue in this fukking country. Nancy fukking slaughters Chuck, Turtle, and frat boy in every single fukking aspect of life, politics, etc...but she doesn’t smile enough.....burn on the stake.

With the unexpected gop retirements and house reps not running again the Dem will take back the House...

Already seeing that blue wave in effect now
You are already seeing the articles from right wing to “moderate” pubs talking about “Here is why the GOP will not only maintain majority, but pick up seats in the house and the senate”. 1 fukking outlier won an election that he wasn’t supposed to win, so throw away all the history books, and Dems, go hide under the covers. GTFO, the Dems have not been this energized in a long fukking time. I have been saying since February 17, the blue tsunami is coming, and there is nothing that gop or the chicken shyt coward centrist libertarian (failed repubs) can fukking do about it. Dig a ditch and bury yourselves you c*ntservative fukkheads

Is it because they’re women? You know republicans hate women coming out of pocket and standing up for themselves. What republican senator or congress woman you know is as vocal as the dems. Maxine go off on trump every other day and my miami sistren frederica Wilson went off on trump for that soldier that was killed in niger .

I don’t think Soros is as bad as the Koch’s , is he?

I think a lot of it works on the conservative base because they're women, it's an easy narrative, and people more or less know who they are.

My views on politics and social issues mostly align with Soros from what I've read and know.

I think if Bill Gates wasn't as apolitical and an American icon the right would go after him the same way they've gone after Soros.

Yall started biggin up old Nancy who's only purpose is to raise money from donors then watch it burn as the GOP outspends her with the same donors :mjlol:
I like Pelosi too besides her stances on warrantless wiretapping stance during the Iraq War stood out plus she was a better speaker than most in a long time. But as far as leading the party to victories, not so much.

Hopefully, things are different but I don't like this beggars can't be choosers attitude some Dems have because they're shook to have a debate of ideas within the party. You can't tell people to get out and get involved then pull the rug when they compete against your favorites. It's silly. The blue wave is coming but if the same types want to continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory then be my guess.

Hillary being an unlikable candidate that was continuously painted as a politician who committed criminal acts is why she lost. Not that she was a centrist. shyt, Obama was a centrist if we're being honest
Don't mistake policy for presentation. Obama used leftwing rhetoric all throughout his run in 2008. No one looked at actual policy. Hillary was even to the left of him on certain things. People are going back and trying to relitigate things that are in recent memory. Moreover, both were following Bush. Hillary was following a Democratic president the same way Gore was and when you have 8 years of a centrist Dem, the base starts to falter. Hillary was nowhere to be seen in 2014 when 80% of millennials who gave Dems their supermajority stayed their asses at home. You may not like it but the facts are there. You elect a centrist and the base stays home. Just like many Republicans stayed home in Alabama because ol boy was a pedophile.

Don't make the mistake of ignoring a flaw because of what the past normal was. If the Dems presented any suitable candidate, regardless of all the things you are mentioning, this close race actually swings to the left

Of course, but that is because Trump was historically bad. That is not a reflection of the strength of the party. The governor from Ohio would have beaten Hillary worse, and would hav given any Democratic a run for their money. You had two historically unpopular candidates. Don't let that hide from the fact that millennials top 3 issues were: the economy, racism and the environment.

FL has lowkey gotten away with how racist that state is due to Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia. Also, because Miami and the rest of South Florida is not "culturally Southern". However, Florida is racist as f*ck (no offense to my Flawda brehs).

I don't think anybody outside of Florida thinks otherwise :skip:
