  1. I don’t live in Harris county, but my understanding is a lot of Hidalgo’s problems stem from her inability to work with her democratic colleagues like Kim Ogg. They were supposedly never able to get on the same page.
  2. That must be an outlier.
  3. We’re a dumb, lazy, “I want it now and I want it cheap” country. if it’s something people desire, they don’t mind paying a hefty price for something like a nice BMW or rolls Royce. If it’s some thing people must have or must pay for, they hate paying a high price for it. Factors outside the democrats control or even their own doing are making people pay exorbitant prices for shelter ( due to a serious lack of housing inventory to go around nationwide), gas ( greedy oil cartel and greedy US companies), and food ( probably being affected most by Russia / Ukraine war and extreme drought in unfortunate areas of US). All of these things would be going poorly if Trump was in office, but if Trump was in office right now people would be figuring out a way to blame Obama for the lack of housing inventory, the democrats for being “hostile” to the oil and gas industry, and probably Obama again for whatever is going wrong in their mainly simple and uninteresting lives.
  4. Is there an explanation why turnout is projected to be so high? I remember the news freaking out because 2018 turnout was off the charts. However, 2016, 2018, and 2020 turnout can be attributed to trump. There’s not as much direct Trump involvement in this election.
  5. If you grow up in this country, use our roads, schools, benefit from the system, and become successful then doesn’t it make sense that you should give back to the system that helped you rise up? I don’t believe in taxing anyone to death, but the situations like warren buffets Secretary paying more in taxes than him never should happen.
  6. You’d think they would’ve lost more voters by now after the Iraq war lie in 2003, tanking the economy in 2008, 3 separate rounds of tax cuts for the rich, and giving covid a several month head start to spread in the US because they only cared about trying to preserve the stock market. all of the above happened during GOP presidents / congresses, but damn I guess people only care about owning those libs while letting the rich get richer under GOP policies maybe they mistakenly believe that if the wealthy are happy, they will be too, but I’ve never seen trickle down policies work in my lifetime.
  7. Well since other people in this thread posted their situations. Im a millennial and I’ve voted in every presidential election since 2008. Voting history is Obama twice, Clinton once, and Biden. Skipped the 2010 and 2014 midterms, but voted in 2018 and won’t miss the midterms ever again.
  8. If they would prevent people before the age of 25 from buying AR-15’s, the shooting numbers would go down a lot. 90% of the shootings are young men 25 and younger who are most likely socially isolated, sexually frustrated, and pissed off at the world. Their brains aren’t fully developed yet and many of them probably wouldn’t make the same decision to shoot up some place at 26 as opposed to 18 or 20.
  9. Seemed like most of the people who raided the capitol were Gen X. I really wish the police cracked some skulls that day. I wish those people would be punished more than they have been.
  10. Texas and the south in general are “husband told me to vote this way” states until further notice.
  11. It’s all about pwning the libs and spiking that football. Who cares what happens next. Gotta get that short 5 second rush of slamming the libs heads into the pavement and owning them. All of that policy stuff is too complicated for most trump voters to comprehend.
  12. Why are so many 45-65 year olds republicans? I hate gen X.
  13. It’s always a stall tactic with the GOP. Their approach to this is usually always the same after a major firearm incident where innocent lives are lost. 1) immediately tweet MEANINGLESS thoughts and prayers. Who gives a shit if other people pray for me? People want tangible help. Get off your ass and help the survivors personally or donate to them. Prayers do nothing. 2) hold a press conference to make it seem like they’re taking it seriously. 3) vaguely promise we will take steps to make sure it doesn’t happen again. basically, they make it look like they care and that they’re doing something so that the base is calmed down and they just wait it out until the news cycle moves on to something else. Meanwhile the victims and their families lives are permanently changed.
  14. Worst officiating crew I’ve seen in a long ass time. Fuck these guys.
  15. Officials have been really bad in favor of Philly. They have had a huge impact on the game.
  16. Would be a lot worse with Jason pussy boy Garrett.
  17. 20-3 at half. This is barely worth watching anymore.
  18. Gotta play and beat a good team eventually. Don’t think the cowboys match up well with Philly, TB, or San Francisco. The officiating has been atrocious. We would still be losing with decent officials, but the calls on 4th down while Philly was driving and the bad spot really hurt us.
  19. I bet the debate would be civil if her opponent was white. I think Greene is a racist cunt.
  20. Fuck this guy. In 2020 while covid was wreaking havoc upon the world, Limbaugh said covid 19 was about as severe as the common cold and the democrats were using it to “Get Trump”.
  21. He wants to be a bitch and leave the seat to his kid. The voters should be able to see through that and not vote for him, but Iowa isn’t known for having smart people.
  22. For awhile there was a columbine trend where shooters would make sure to kill themselves just like the kids in columbine. 1999 to sandy hook the shooter or shooters always seemed to die. Now we’re seeing a new trend where lots of them surrender to the cops.
  23. I registered to vote on October 10th in a new county. Will I receive a voter card in the mail? I’m glad to see that my old Texas drivers license will work it’s only been expired for a month as I wait on the new one to arrive. Do I need the voter card or could I just show up with the picture ID and be ok?
  24. This cracks me up. It’s funnier than Ted Cruz’s backhanded attack on Beto in 2018. These MAGA creeps are so bloodthirsty. They can’t fathom the possibility or idea of saying anything nice about their opponents.
  25. Marquette is a big one. Hoping Barnes is close. MAGA polling logic : MAGAs: OH polls are D-biased and show a tie, so the republican is winning. Also MAGA: NV polls are R-biased and show a tie...so the republican is winning.
