Don't put them both in the same bucket, the Democrats haven't done anything yet, let's give them the chance and see how they screw up.

The economy will be better, not this revved up Republican thing.

What the democrats are attempting to do is scary. I am an independent hoping the democrats lose control of both houses.

Oh, you're the curious one, let them overturn 2024, you just have to run Trump, give him three Terms to make up for his loss.

Oh well, at least land prices will come back down again.

What are the Democrats attempting to do?

Why is it not the Republicans the scary ones, with their Theocratic right?

Let them learn their lessons at the poll, we don't need their minuscule minds running things.

Trump made a fine attempt to shatter the mold, but really, he doesn't have it.
 
What are the Democrats attempting to do?
One of their plan to pack the US Supreme Court. Another is their plan to federalize state and local elections Those are the two most scary. What they did the last election, spreading mass mailout balloting with little to no safeguards is another.

I am not a big fan of establishment republicans either, however they are making no attempts to pack the SCOTUS or nationalize elections

When have you ever seen establishment politicians in either party learn from past mistakes?
Trump made a fine attempt to shatter the mold, but really, he doesn't have it.
The secret to Trump's success in 2016 was that he absolutely did shatter the mold.

Not quite, he went with the wrong crew when he signed the 2017 tax cut.

That was scary and so is his insurrection and the possibility of States or the Nation overturning their electorate's decision.

I think the Court is behaving well and the Democrats won't bother it, and if they use their time without cause to stack the Court, well too bad, the Republicans brought it on themselves, there's nothing I can do.

No, I really wish they'd draft something cool.

Like #1, give the opposition something, and require an ID.

Then give the opposition something else, no feeding in line. To vote you must come equipped to defend your Country and follow such a pretend rule.

Make mail in postmarked two weeks before and counted the week before. Make an online vote and vote three times.

Make the polls stay open to a reasonable time.

The tax cuts were absolutely the right way to go.

It was a riot, not an insurrection and Trump had nothing to do wit it
I think the Court is behaving well and the Democrats won't bother it, and if they use their time without cause to stack the Court, well too bad, the Republicans brought it on themselves, there's nothing I can do.
Yet every time there is a ruling they do not like, they threaten to pack the court. They want to make the SCOTUS the judicial wing of the democrat party.
Make mail in postmarked two weeks before and counted the week before. Make an online vote and vote three times.
The mail in balloting that already existed, absentee balloting which is secure, is all the mail balloting that is needed.
Make the polls stay open to a reasonable time.
7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and let anyone who is still in line at 7:00 PM vote is reasonable.
 
No, I'd rather have God, or my God to yours, maybe our God, but as a planet, we're not there yet.

You're right, I haven't opened my civics books yet, just the chemistry for the chemical analysis of the crystal, and I'm several chapters into reviewing my high school biology.

Did I say Democracy? I know that we are a Republic, I know what a Republic is and I know enough to not let the Republicans get away with 1929, 2008 and 2017, or 2008-2016.
So let me get this straight, you're a HS kid who's not old enough to vote, yet you are ****-sure every word you utter is the God's honest truth??

As Lewis Carroll said, "If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there".

And what are you going on about 1929?? What is it you think you understand??

What makes you think I'm a high school kid?

I admit, they're easier to keep up with than the kindergartners, but when they stop to see who there is to be ahead of, there is only me.

I packed my brain with nutrients for forty years to get my amazing powers of observation.

If I'm wrong, I'll be the first to be corrected.

You have to be right to get the Resonant Mind to go with you.

Like I say, it's a hard sell, too many people don't trust the Democrats.

But what have they done? Obamacare?

How about insurrection, call cheat, blow a surplus, stall a recovery and stack the Court?

You're all over the place - not making a concise point. I have no idea what you're talking about.

What's your point about 1929??
 
You're all over the place - not making a concise point. I have no idea what you're talking about.

What's your point about 1929??
1929 had two Republican Administrations going before it.

Eight years of their nonsense economic program caused the Great Depression.

Now they want to steal the election so they can do it some more and make the people pray.

They obviously don't have it together.

Let's see if the Democrats do.

Well, those 40 years of study haven't served you well.

The Money Trust, which controls the Federal Reserve, deliberately caused the crash - for very logical reasons.

Logical for them, completely disastrous for America and working families.

Read Quigley's Tragedy and Hope. He was Bill Clinton's mentor. What's novel about the book is that he actually tells the truth.

You really have no idea what is going on.

You sound convincing to an idiot.

You allude to some narrative unrelated to our argument and then be-mean my point of view.

Nor did you answer my point.

That the Democrat reduces deficit and hands over growing economy.

Your point is not valid, which is why I keep asking you why you brought up 1929?? - and have yet to answer.

1929 was after eight years of Reprobate rule.

You haven't been watching. They have been screwing up by the numbers, or in the case of illegal aliens, by the millions...
 
They, especially the Republicans need to stop borrowing and start paying back, and the only thing that will do it is a tax structure that pays the bills and to do this they must accept a slower growth rate.

The Republicans must stop trying to grow their way out of debt. it will never happen, they are worse than dumb yooper spinning their tires in the snow who doesn't know how to rock it back and forth, only digging their self in deeper.

Fortunately the ditch analogy is not all encompasing and we can just drive on without a crash.
Yeah, you run on that platform, and see where it gets you.

Oh, you don't want to tell the rube voter what you are going to do, you'll just hide in the basement, and when the Trumpster stands on his willy enough, they will vote for the brick Biden. Worked last time....
 
You haven't been watching. They have been screwing up by the numbers, or in the case of illegal aliens, by the millions...
No, you're right, I don't have a tv.

When I hold the situation I see, curses and black magic from the right, and exaggerations and mute talking points.

Biden is disappointing since I handed him 50/50, now I have to sell the midterms.
 
The Case for Democratic Majorities:

If we don't like it, we can always go back to Republican and give them what we had to fight for..

So I expect good behavior from my Majorities, how about you?

Otherwise, you let the Republicans behave that way and get away with it.

The Russian trolls are pulling hard for split Houses.

The Democrats practically haven't had a turn with only 50/50 in the Senate.
The Senate split is 51dems/50 repubs.

Dems have full control of the wh and both chambers of Congress. Stop making excuses and start demanding results from them.

I'm not worried about millions of aliens.

We've always been a melting pot.

I wouldn't give citizenship to people not born here, I'd give them the domestic partnership.
 
Allow me to make the case AGAINST democrat majorities.

Chicago
Detroit
Atlanta
Baltimore
Seattle
Gary
Flint
Baton Rouge
Minneapolis
St Paul
LA
Oakland

Those cities and others have been run exclusively by democrats for decades, in some cases going back to the 1880s.

So list some Reprobate city that's doing well, or a good Reprobate State.

I do demand results.

Democrats are doing just fine at the deficit problem.

They did what I told them, put the last few things you need on the credit card and when I get you stronger Majorities in 2022 repeal that 2017 tax cut.

They're doing everything possible, I just like to try for the impossible, like 2022 Majorities.
