    You know, seriously, what the Guv is posting is beyond fantasy.

     

    That the Republicans will win back the house, is pretty much expected by both sides.

     

    and the Cheney decision will change that ?

     

    beyond fantasy.

     

     

     

    People always assume that the party in power will suffer big midterm losses but it really looks like they’re going to bucks that trend this time. It’s a very unique political landscape and we shouldn’t compare it to previous administrations, especially with Republicans in so much turmoil.

    Keep up with the fantasy. You do it so well.

    There isn’t enough time to switch gears before the midterms. They just wasted that opportunity. All they can do now is hope for super low turnout and cross their fingers. 
     

    I expect Democrats to make the midterms about student loan debt/voting rights to increase young turnout. They’re definitely dragging their feet on those issues on purpose.

     

    If Biden’s numbers are still over 50 percent, there really isn’t anything Republicans can do.

     

    Democrats will also win that NC Senate seat and that’s all she wrote.

    Yup. Love going to the games. I live in NJ so its not like I can go to Bills games on a regular basis. I do try to get to one Bills home game a year otherwise I just wait for them to come to NJ.

    When is Bills @ Jets? I’m only 20 minutes away. I hope it’s week 6 or later.

    True.  Good point.

    It actually happened way back in 2003. It’s just been a slow motion car wreck ever since.

     

    Trump was just the doubling down on crazy because they couldn’t fix the other issues they had with voters and the demographic changes.

     

    Republican consultants knew the math no longer worked unless there were big changes made to the party’s platform.

    I don't look at the 2020 election based solely on election day results....or the ones we came up with after.  

     

    I'm talking about what they did for the 2020 election season which began around March 11 ...

     

    That included btw....making Biden the automatic nominee for the Democrat party bc that was normal in no way rigged at all. 

    No one showed up to vote for Bernie. He got slaughtered in the south. They yelled all day on the internet and not a single one of them put their game controller down and voted for the guy.

     

    He also has a problem with African American voters for whatever reason. Voters in SC just don’t know who the guy is. He struggles with name recognition with black voters.

     

    His campaign did recognize this problem and tried to improve, but it was never going to be enough after the Clyburn/Biden endorsement dropped.

    The more State Run Media bends over backwards to call the 2020 election legit and Trump's claims as "lies," you can safely assume they know Trump is correct.  

     

    They never ever ever ever call what someone alleges as a matter of fact lie.

     

    Ever.

    Trump needed to hit an inside straight. He had 1 path to victory and lost ALL 5 of those states. Don’t you think that was asking a bit too much?

     

    It would be a little different if he won 3 of those states and it came down to Georgia and Arizona, but that didn’t happen. He got destroyed. That wasn’t a close election at all.

    Thank you.

     

    That statement by Rep. Cheney illustrates perfectly why she cannot continue as 3rd in leadership in the House.

     

    She will still be in Congress.

     

    She can still make as many public comments as she wishes (not being cancelled).......and I am sure the networks will continue to give her a soapbox.

     

    BUT her crusade will divide the party not lead it.

     

    Her personal opinion is valid to her, but if she wants to influence your fellow party members you work with them,  not insult them.

     

     

    Thanks again Guv.

     

     

    So the party’s message should be…..The Big Lie?

     

    Just go with that and see what happens? What happens after that?

    The only place I’ve heard about that race theory is from right wingers on this message board. 

    I’ve been searching for the answer to this also. I always hear Bill Maher, Fox personalities, etc. complaining about it.

     

    I went to NYC and Hoboken NJ recently and asked around. I walked by some of these progressive schools.

     

    Basically, whatever it is they’re complaining about only exists in extremely wealthy private schools in NYC and possibly LA. Schools where millionaire’s kids go. It’s not happening anywhere in the public school system.

    I’m guessing I’ve been hearing about this issue for a decade or more longer than you (no disrespect intended). At its core it all boils down to the international creation of the state of Israel following WW2. And it’s been an ongoing squabble ever since with every nation in the region.... and I honestly don’t blame either side. But Israel has never been a mono-religious nation. They have many faiths living within its borders, and millions more who visit the Holy Land every year without threat of persecution. I’m assuming you see it differently?

    Well, there’s Arabs that live and move freely in Israel and then there’s Palestinians who are surrounded by a huge wall that runs right through their land. They have to pass through checkpoints to come and go. Two entirely different groups.

     

    Then there’s the African migrant workers that get treated horribly in Israel.

     

    Yeah, they’re not very nice over there. 
     

    Then you have the illegal settlements which you’ve probably heard about.

    It’s dumb to suggest a country would want to keep their borders intact? I thought that’s what countries are for. My bad. 

    I don’t think you fully understand the history and the issue itself. Most Americans don’t. There are quite a few great documentaries from both sides available for viewing.

    I can understand people not wanting to go back to work until they get vaccinated. Soooo....get vaccinated.  The part about people wanting to do something different? After sitting around for 14 months watching TikTok videos they want to be Internet Influencers?  I would imagine thinking about how drab their careers were pre-pandemic and wanting to do something more fulfilling has a lot to do with it but as the line in Caddy Shack goes..."the world needs ditch diggers too Danny!"  Cut the gravy train and see how many of those go back to flipping burgers and stocking shelves at Old Navy.  

     

    I did not gloss over it. I chose not to include it.  Can you explain it to me?  

    You need to go on unemployment. Cooks are the #1 profession for Covid deaths. 
     

    Luckily, I’ve paid into something my whole life called “UI insurance” and I will approve you.

     

    Shh! No one else on this board has paid into this “secret” program so it’s VIP.

    Trillions Gracie?  

     

    And Trump is the Federal Reserve?  

    I forgot. The “deep state” did all of those things. Trump was just a president who was being victimized by others. He’s not responsible for anything that happened in 4 years. That was “Obama’s” people that did all of that.

     

    This was the first infusion of money. I believe they did it 2 more times after that.
