  1. Fatty votes on an exclusively tribal basis, Most Republicans do. can we talk about the shutdown on the shutdown thread?
  2. @Nivek you are missing the point. When I talk about Warren’s toxicity, I’m talking about the negative electoral drag her influence exerts on the rest of the party, and since her “leadership” on bitcoin played a decisive role in making Trump president, it’s hard to argue otherwise. And Hillary Clinton’s largely unearned influence did the same thing. And you seem to understand the point, but choose to ignore it, since you seem to think that Ted Cruz is liked by Republicans and R-leans, which is flatly incorrect. He’s mostly tolerated. So no, I am not falling for right-wing anything. What I am doing is humbling myself to the reality of the situation and what the data tells me, regardless of whether it confirms my worldview or aspirations. The fact that the Democratic Party doesn’t have the strategic discipline to do the same is the primary reason I don’t really identify with it anymore. Hope is great, but it’s not a strategy. Neither is disdain.
  3. Not sure where else to put this, from a Ford Maverick Forum
  4. Dominational differences, 2025 edition: In the battle of the Pope vs Mommy Influencers, Jeff Leach isn’t afraid to make the tough calls.

  7. IT IS ABSOLUTELY THE STANDARD and unless you are so insulated in a bubble of privilege that it doesn’t matter to you if the Republic falls, you had better make it literally the most important thing there is. Rudyard Kipling admired those who could “walk with kings and keep the common good touch.” Lefties disdain the common touch at our national peril.
  8. I don't think she's insufferable. I think she's got quite a charming personality in a chiding school teacher sort of way. She just doesn't connect for people in an intuitive way (unlike Obama or Ann Richards, for example) and seems unable to read a room, both literally and figuratively. Eh, I used to be a big fan of Warren until she got very interested in things i knew a lot about. I would not call her proposed solutions unviersally practical. I mean, some are. But quite a few are abjectly nonsensical.
  9. I'm very much for the pre 1970s "talking filibuster" with a 2/3 vote for cloture, not this slient filibuster shit.
  10. No, I said "she’s one of the most toxic and inept politicians I’ve ever seen." Hillary Clinton is the most toxic and inept. But Warren is cancerous, because since she is positioned as a leader in the Democratic party, even though her bad habits and poor instincts matasticize into other parts of the party and cost votes. More toxic to America? Of course. More toxic politically to their own party? The only one who comes close is Ted Cruz, who I compared Warren to. She's as damaging to her party's brand as he is to the GOP. No, We need more people like her serving as appointees, which is why I said "She should have stayed in the appointee lane like Samantha Power." Usually the best appointees make for middling to bad candidates/elected officials. What you are asking for is a "cultural shift" away from elections being what they have always been, in all places at all times: popularity contests. Democrats need to accept reality and treat them that way, not attempt cultural shift through tone deafness. No, we need serious people who can win elections.
  11. I’ve seen *instructors* fumble with shotgun shells during reloads at the range, more than once. Look, you don’t want a Democrat in office. I get it. You don’t need to pretend to buy this shit, there’s no need.
  12. Jesus this is such bullshit, and you know it’s bullshit. Are you actually saying that a competitive clay shooter who is comfortable using an A400 xcel (which is a legitimately great sporting gun) shouldn’t bring it out in the field for an occasional hunt? That’s absurd. What a joke, especially coming from you. You voted for a guy who said we should take guns without due process and another who called an AR-15 a “machine gun” while using it to cook bacon.
  13. I want to see some pay stubs guys
  14. From what? Edgelords on college sports forums?
  15. Fuck everything
  16. I haven’t been a Democrat for nearly a decade. But I’m also not a “both sides” guy, because I am not a retarded person.
  17. Yes. Because they didn’t blow up the filibuster. And they negotiated with the Republican leadership before and during the shutdown. They also didn’t engage in relentless insults, violate the Hatch act, or post weird, racist AI videos from the white house account moments after meetings with the minority leadership.
  18. This is such a potato party
  19. I can’t imagine being good enough for that to make a difference, but I guess that’s the difference between 35 years and 8 weeks.
  20. I’m against shutdowns 100% of the time. This is no exception. That said, I didn’t stop understanding strategy because of my preferences. The Republicans have given the Democrats no reason to do anything other than this. So here we are.
  21. I’m not going to be pulled off topic here, but you should know that she and her office worked to obstruct efforts to do that very thing, instead trying to shove the horse back in the barn. As for the rest of the post, which you did not respond to and primarily dealt with her ability to understand the electorate and win votes, res ipsa liquitur. She was a good appointee but is not a talented or skilled politician. She’s just another example of affluent lefties trying to make fetch happen.
  22. Democrats need to stop caring so much about what Republicans say about them. They don’t seem to understand that Republicans are preaching to the choir. Democrats need to preach to their own choir.
  23. Because of my injury I couldn’t do anything but pitch, chip and putt for the last 3 weeks. So I did nothing but pitch, chip and putt, 5 days a week on average, for at least an hour, for the last three weeks. It should not be a surprise, therefore, that my pitching, chipping and putting has improved radically in the last three weeks. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.
