General Political Fúckery Thread: Elon Musk blows up stopgap spending bill, Government Shutdown looming on 12/21/24

[Reality Check]

Random question, but is McCarthy's district in California that conservative that he keeps getting reelected?. Figure with it being California, Dems would have multiple people lined up to try defeating him.

first of all, shutting down the government doesnt crash the economy did it in 2019?

republicans have to take overt, targeted steps to do whatever it is you think they're capable of doing. they cant just "decide to crash the economy" and win politically. thats asinine

its the "congress thread"

It only asks a question in the thread title.

why are you so poor at reading comprehension?

honestly, i just meant for this to be about the u.s. house and the republicans governing of that chamber... but to your point, there is no congressional thread (for house & senate) and "congress fukkery" does appear in the title of this thread, so i won't protest...

question for everyone else, should there be a separate u.s. senate thread or should this thread just expand to cover all of congress....?

What part of "Far left woke policies and reckless spending " do you not understand?

"you made me Speaker, and i shut down the government in my first year "

thats not a winning message i mean, i dont know. im just not that afraid of these MAGA retards. they arent that powerful

these congressmen all care far more about keeping the grift and the skim going, then performing on fox news for ignorant rednecks

McCarthy and repubs then in 24 campaign alongside the presidential nominee that "under the Biden Administration, the government got shut down, this is due to the far left policies and shows that congress is broken (which it is), that is why you must vote for Trump to bring the economy back"


They will destroy the country to try and make Trump the "savior"

He's intentially being dense, and I bet as soon as Republicans start touting this rhetoric he'll be agreeing with them.

With the upcoming Moore v Harper decision I'm not too confident on that either. I think we've successfully been coup'd. I pray I'm wrong but things aren't actually looking too good. The only positive thing is the changes in demographics taking place across the country and more young people being able to vote. People are really going to have to show up at the voting booths come 2024.


Agreed. People don't get it. All the Republicans care about is power. And these people have played the long game. This is a multi-generational project to return the country to where we were pre-1965. I don't think they'll be successful. But they have definitely set themselves up to have the legal means to do so.

Folk showed up in 2018/2020 and now 2022

i understand you came down with tourettes, but im not sure what your point is. the midterm results just shut down this point

kevin mccarthy and minority leader mcconnell do not have a fukking mandate to crash the economy by whining about the far left. if you think that, you're a fool

yeah; no one is buying that

where does this power come from to crash the economy? where do republicans derive it from?

Don't blame me. I'm just saying we can't ignore how fragile the base of democrat voters is.

Plus, dems are losing asian votes on the west coast too.
