You are an extremist.

Because Trump is an idiot. The fact that he wanted to abolish the electoral college is the greatest reason to keep it. That in and the whole not letting the majority oppress the minority thing. You don’t want one ideology taking over a country. That always leads to disaster. This country’s greatest strength is that…

Again, this is false, people are strongly against it if accompanied by a tax increase. There are other options.

The overall healthcare ranking also considers indicators of health. One of the major reasons healthcare in this country is so expensive is because we eat like crap, and don’t exercise. You post statistics on per capital spending yet simply blame that spending on “the system”, and ignore other factors. This problem is…

Libby, you’re a good writer, but I think the supporters of Medicare for all, including yourself, frequently look over a major hurdle to medicare for all. People overwhelmingly don’t want it, if you are going to raise taxes. I’ve yet to see one concrete proposal that funds medicare for all without a tax raise. No one…

People who are getting elected who are as leftist as AOC are getting in areas that are as leftist as AOC.  The country as whole doesn’t want these policies.  Pelosi get’s that.

You’re going to have to increase taxes to pay for medicare for all. While for it in theory, the country overwhelmingly is against medicare for all if it means a tax increase. I don’t even know why we’re having this discussion anymore. If the next presidential candidate campaigns on medicare for all, that person will…

Just because he isn’t some Socialism loving radical leftist like yourself doesn’t make him a Troll. He’s pretty cordial in his counter opinions. Far from Brietbart, which is ironic that you mention that, because Splinter might as well be the Brietbart of the left.

It’s not about playing fair, it’s about winning. If AOC is allowed to take over the party, the Republicans are going to be winning a LOT of elections over the next decade. AOC doesn’t understand (or care?) how things work, and her policy is way to leftist to win a national election.

I’ve been saying it for a while, AOC is the Sarah Palin of the left.

You’re not going to win that way.

And coastal elites isn’t a farce. Where do you think all the money in this country resides? Missouri?

How are moderates suffering?  Specifics?

Most moderates who voted for Trump are not suffering as a result of his presidency. There’s no pain to overlook. Trump acting like a jackass doesn’t effect the average person in this country. But a lot of these people see the mouth foaming from the far left and the coastal elites and have no problem pissing off a popu…

You still don’t get it......most moderates are pretty unaffected by his presidency. They are willing to look past him being a piece of shit, if it means screwing over the people who think moderates are pieces of shit because they aren’t embracing far left ideas.

You’re a resident of a the Midwest, but you’re far from a centrist. The centrists of the midwest were giving Hilary and the leftists on the coasts the middle finger for it’s arrogance and for ignoring he center of the country. Trump didn’t win on racism, the racists would’ve voted republican anyway. He won because…

LOL. If the people of this site weren’t so convinced that it was the Russians, and not the fact that Hillary Clinton was an elitist, coastal, condescending bitch, this would be great comedy. You have a goddamn, liar, narcissistic, moron in office, and the reason you couldn’t beat him was the Russians? It’s because…

This kind of arrogance about the Midwest is exactly why Donald Trump is president right now. There’s a LOT of well educated, hard working middle and upper middle class moderate voters in the Midwest, and when coastal douches are condescending like this, well, you see what happened. The Democrats at least look as if…

Correct, because Amazon is not a monopoly, they have plenty of competition, just that competition sucks. Maybe 10 years from now, but certainly now now.

Death to Comcast could be a presidential platform on it’s own. That and United Airlines.
