Still really, really bothers me how they let Green get tossed out by himself. I get not being the first one up, there were a lot of brands of messaging going on from the party at the time, but someone's gotta show a mind for the moment man....

and then to vote against him? smh
again go along to get along gang. Let homie take the arrows then acted like they didn’t know him.

These are trying times 100’s of years in the future people are gonna ask why didn’t they stop him? and this is the answer.

The wild thing is when Carville said the democrats need to roll over and play dead until he fukks up the economy they said he was wrong then turned right around and did what he said to do.

Vote Blue no matter who and we get Dancing Fighter TikToks and wearing pink.

Any real one with a spine gets muted and the rest end up bowing down (AOC).

SMH. Where they fukk is a real third party?
I'm a proud bothsider. Genuine shout out to dems too. It's not in me to kick a man why they're down. Dems been getting their backs kicked in by Republicans.

Some Dems try to pick fights with bothsiders but I get it they trying to emotionally regulate and find a scapegoat to blame. Can't do shyt to republicans now they got the popular vote, Presidency, House, Senate, Supreme Court, Police, Military, the whole damn board so gotta find someone to try to go to bat with and it's us bothsiders.

Hard to do progressive things in a country that isn't progressive and your "working class" worships (white) wealth. Ol Bedtime Biden did everything you're "supposed to do" Domestically and instead the game show host got a 2nd chance.

What works in NY and Cali is a tough sell in AZ and WV.

But the pendulum will eventually swing back. Just gotta accept the fact the best this country will ever be is some mix of the Clinton-Obama years.

That's what the Bernie Sanders crowd doesn't get. They think if they go left enough that they'll finally appeal to the black hearts of hardcore racists.

It's never gonna happen.

I agree with his points.

However, main reason why Democrats lost are too many people don’t want equality at their expense.

Every single person got their hands out to the Democratic Party and they must make trade-offs. A lot of people don’t like the trade-offs.

Point blank, a lot of people are more spoiled than they want to admit. They’re only thinking of themselves and in the short term when they get in that voting booth. Not many people really look at the bigger picture and the long term payout. That’s honestly why a lot of people even after playing the stock market for years aren’t millionaires.

Meanwhile, Republicans will always favor White males and not care about satisfying other groups. Theoretically, you don’t got to share your privileges with anybody else if you’re a white male and vote Republican. In actuality though, you need to be a rich White male for their party to benefit you or you’re basically exit liquidity.

When you say that that means a global depression you down to live in a cardboard box until said revolution happens?

trump folded on tariffs because he knows most of MAGA won’t like a mild recession.


It may require that sort of experience.

As sad as that may be.


Trump isn't completely suicidal

I think most people here are moderates, unfortunately the country as a whole only sees absolutes. Gotta be polar opposites, while I'm convinced the average republican voter is well below average in terms of intelligence and unfortunately that's what you need. A bunch of mindless drones parroting key talking points.

What he did was out of hand & it did nothing . Just let Cheeto do his speech .


It sent a very loud and reverberating message. It reminds me of that time I got sent to the #Bushes and left for dead. Only to come back 30 days later and see #BothSides has truly taken thecoli by storm:wow:.
