the complete lack of fukks given from right even though their base is pissed makes me think we'really in for some shady shyt during the 2018 midterms, especially if this passes the senate
More attempts at voter suppression and eradicating the voter base of the opposition by criminalizing them and deporting them even if they're citizens. This is not a party that believes in democracy.

no shady shyt needed, they have their finger on the pulse of the mid-term electorate. these districts have been gerrymandered with surgical precision, their people will show up to vote for them. they have nothing to worry about.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Whats funny is that Obama killed himself to explain this shyt. Trump hasnt had to explain anything :snoop:

Didn't even get a cbo score :what:
Trump doesn't even give a fukk about this healthcare bill, he only cares about destroying Obama's legacy, because a black person rose too far, and that is not ok. The GOP and Trump hope that black people know their place, now.

pelosi's rebuttal today was weak, very underwhelming. she's a caricature at this point. dems desperately need new leadership. it's a shame what happened to weiner.

It's unfortunate. I actually think liberals/democrats are going to continue to get trounced in 2018 and 2020. In terms of our society and where we are at culturally in my personal estimation it will take a good 6-10 years before we see the major shift away from our current idiocy (on both sides at that). Insurance rates will continue to climb (these Trump voters don't know what it was like during two decades before ACA?), white people are becoming more and more addicted to drugs, and no republican will do a thing about corporate cronyism. The conservative talking point of "We just need more power" will lose its luster as they remain in majority power but problems continue to persist or get worse.

It's not necessarily an indictment of liberals (though there is serious problematic behavior in a lot of liberal groups). Sometimes there are more people in power you don't like because of geography and whichever left/right propaganda culture you're in. It's a numbers thing.

Expect young people to get "woke" in the years to come when they realize just how far evangelicals, conservatives, and Trump Republicans want to go. But it'll take years. And it won't necessarily be the kind of vision you or I might like, either.

Once this anger subsides and GOP gains a super majority next year :blessed:

"why isn't anyone stopping the people I voted into power from lowering minimum wage to $5 and taking away my house? :to:"

:mjgrin:
