You should really learn why the EC is a thing, and that’s not it.

Count me as the one dude who thinks Bolt/Volt isn’t a bad naming idea. You say “I’m thinking of getting a Bolt!” and your friend says “oh yeah, a Volt! The half-electric Chevy, right?” and you say “close, it’s Bolt with a B, the new ALL-electric Chevy.” The resulting conversation ends up reinforcing Chevy’s PHEV and…

They’ve been careful not to position them against each other though. The 2nd gen Volt is a sporty low-slung coupe-styled thing attractive for single commuters and roadtripping childless couples. It has rear doors and a back seat but it’s a claustrophobic torture chamber back there: consider it emergency insurance for…

I suspect that the Gen 2 Volt will drive a marginal profit on its own, excluding EV credits, but including shared technology cost with the Bolt and other Gen 2 tech vehicles.

So I was a former Fisker employee who was asked to interview for a position in Finance at Faraday a year or so ago with the promise of some fairly outrageous compensation at least for the position level. I took one meeting with them and decided they were full of as much shit as Fisker was, if not more so. But I…

“...white working class voters routinely vote against their own economic best interest, no matter how much Dems cater and beg and explain.”

Cheers, finally some damn common sense! People want to go apoplectic on each other and refuse to understand where things went wrong when we have a perfect example of exactly how to run a fucking campaign who’s still in office for 2 more months.

Eh, I’ve been around. I was browbeaten into submission during the primaries, fought the good fight for Clinton in the general, worried about each mistake and called them out in turn, but ultimately stayed loyal to the party. Of course, if you even thought about voting for a socialist in the primaries, you’re among…

NO ONE is saying to completely abandon minority concerns and only cater to white people. No one is saying that. What needs to happen is maybe stop using identity politics as a fucking bludgeon against white people, and maybe try and convince people that equality for minority groups actually benefits us all in the…

Here’s our plan, from what I can tell:

I agree,

I find it funny how so many people act like the work is coming to an end. News Flash, it’s not. This election is unprecedented in our history for providing us two unabashedly horrible options. You are lying to yourself if you think Clinton would have served the interest of the people. Please, the woman was under…

“By claiming racism, sexism, xenophobia, or other fun castigations, you are completely missing that these communities are reacting to their situation continuing to get worse.”

Yeah, born and raised in Western, PA. My family worked in manufacturing. I voted for Hillary, but absolutely understand the economic despair of some of these areas. It isn’t rooted in racism. It is rooted in wanting their kids to have better opportunities than they did.

Many of these people were forced into Obamacare, and don’t want/need/can’t afford it. As soon as the announcements that rates were going to double for some people, I knew Trump would win. He said he would repeal and replace it and that was enough for many of these people. They voted with their wallets. Rural…

When only one side engages people, that side can tell whatever story they want.

I don’t always agree with your opinions but I think this is dead on.

Totally agree. I think Liberals need to take a long look in the mirror and think about one thing, arrogance. They have been so cocky and arrogant about this election cycle or the last two or three. It jumped up and bit them in the ass in a huge way last night.

You’ve done a great job here pointing out a phenomenon known as “point-and-laugh liberalism.” Maybe if the Democrats adopted the a policy of unconditional respect, one that was advocated by... what’s his name.... the old white guy from Vermont, we wouldn’t be staring at this goddamn travesty. These people are…

“It can be hard to put your finger on exactly what you fear most about the rise of Donald Trump: the racism? The sexism? The xenophobia? The profoundly dangerous lack of judgment?”
