To paraphrase your response: “Yeah, I got nothing substantial, so I’ll stick to handwaving”

Please provide a full explanation, including reference to how long the Dems could’ve slowed down the process of confirming these judges (based on a working knowledge of the Senate calendaring process and remembering that they don’t have the numbers to defeat any floor votes), what it would have gained them to slow…

Jeezus fecking christ on a crutch.

Nearly 3,000 dead? (Shrugs shoulders) Call me when the death toll is more politically useful than one white Iowa girl.

Trump 2016: All those economic stats and indicators are fake! Things are actually terrible!

Trump, one month after inauguration: All those stats show the economy is great, and I made it that way!

This comment should be posted under the article and all others vaporized. It’s all that needs to be said.

There is a lot more to that then you realize. Fear really IS much easier to sustain - look at the fact that crime and murder rates are near their lowest point since they began to be measured in the mid-20th century, and yet if you flip on Faux News, an MS-13 member is probably outside your home RIGHT NOW.

Whereas if…

The Democrats pulled their Senate candidate off the ballot in 2014 when an outlier poll showed Orman neck and neck with Pat Roberts (and this poll came immediately after Roberts faced a not-tight-but-not-easy primary fight against a newb Tea Party candidate in the GOP primary). He should do the same now, but it really…

First - go all country lawyer on this BS: “Now, I don’t know what these pfeffle-folks are making themselves so crazy about. All I’m sayings is that everyone should have the chance to get the same health care your granmaw gets to have if they want it. Nothing more, nothing less.” Don’t fight this fight on the industry…

How long before she stops beating around the bush and just uses the 14 words?

Remember this article after Trump’s “shocking” come-from-way-behind win in 2020

This is why the 2018 and 2018 elections will not be wholesale rejections of Republicans. Most Americans just don’t pay attention to politics, except as background noise. A headline or soundbite breaks through (“Are they sending kids to concentration camps?”) but a few obfuscations later (Oh, its what was done before”…

It’s not supposed to be convincing. It’s just supposed to be turned into a soundbite on the evening news or the headline on an article that gets posted on facebook so that the great majority of voters - the ones who only fleetingly pay attention to politics - can see it and get their dominant political position (Both…

You ... you realize that nothing in that chart is dispositive towards the strategy that the Russians took with the election, right? And that, when given a candidate who spouted explicitly racist rhetoric, white participation went up for the first time in four election cycles? Correlation or causation? I mean, the GOP…

There were three ways the Russian meddling helped Trump:

It amped up low-propensity voters, especially outright racists who rarely voted. And they rarely voted because they had their own version of “both-siderism”, only theirs is “both side refuse to see that brown people are the root of all problems in this country”;…

It’s always amazing how they manage to both move the goalposts AND miss the point.

One thing the GOP need not worry about is running out of boogeymen to feed the fear that motivates their votes. For christsakes the have a lock on all three branches of government and yet they can still motivate their voters by telling them that the Dems still run things via the “deep state”

No matter how obviously and…

Eaxactly.

Deny Trump a court seat? The logic and reasoning are sound. Pointing out the hypocrisy of Republicans using their own words is perfect.

Won’t make a difference.

MS-13 is one of the gravest threats to America.

But it you are fleeing from them? Fuck you
