Koko78 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Just read an article where they were trying to claim that Beto had between 10,000 and 15,000 people at his rally. https://news.yahoo.com/trump-returns-to-campaign-form-with-el-paso-rally-promoting-border-wall-034231756.html Yahoo is hilarious with their slanted writing and strict adherence to DNC-approved talking points, no matter what the facts are.

(it's okay to 90% know this is a totally lost cause) Bernie Sanders so most on the right will freak out. It doesn't really matter. I think Washington has become so partisan right now that working across the aisle is nearly impossible even if you had the most centrist candidate possible win. Every president will be labeled the "worst president of all time" by the other side. My preferred candidate would be Tim Ryan judging by his voting record. He'd have a better chance at winning the general election than the primaries though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's viewed as more reasonable than the coastal candidates, but last Sunday on TV he went on a rant about 400 people in the US having more net worth than 100+ million. To me that puts him in the same camp as most of the others, believing that government needs to redistribute money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone can have a voting record that you agree with simply by asking their party leader how they want him/her to vote. A president needs to be a leader and that includes inspiring people.

Tiberius Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I know, not exactly on topic, but still sort of fits and f u if you don't like it. Quote Mark Kelly, the former space shuttle commander who teamed with his wife, former Rep. Gabby Giffords, to advocate for stricter gun laws after Giffords was shot at a public event, announced Tuesday that he will run for Senate in Arizona as a Democrat. Kelly’s 4½-minute announcement video does not mention President Donald Trump. Nor does it include any reference to the gun control initiatives Kelly and Giffords have championed in the years since the 2011 assassination attempt in Tucson, Ariz., that seriously wounded Giffords (D-Ariz.) and led to her resignation from Congress.

Her completely embarrassing tweet yesterday about how Trump's tax cut is reducing incomes because tax rebates are lower is just the stupid sauce on her idiot sandwich. She's a vile pig who doesn't care if she's sucking a married man or a late-term baby from a womb, as long as there's money and power left over when she's wiping her chin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderate Democrats killed Republicans all across the country. I don’t mind a lot of her views, but unfortunately, she is one of the worst people I have ever interacted with.

B-Man Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) ‘You can feel it now’: New Democrats push party, and 2020 candidates, to the left on divisive issues Washington Post, by Seung Min Kim* Original Article A new generation of Democrats is using far-reaching policy ideas and a brash social media presence to upend the party — pushing it to the left on divisive issues such as health care and climate change while it charts a path aimed at taking the White House in 2020. But the liberal shift, and the lawmakers driving it, are also creating challenges for Democrats in more-conservative areas, and they are giving President Trump and congressional Republicans fresh opportunities for political attacks. .
