  1. Alright, this team may not suck anymore lol.
  2. Get some, haha, get some baby! Get some!
  3. It's amazing that posters here seriously don't think there's actual suppression. Just an obvious power grab by a party that is doing a slow death.
  4. Ugh, Florida probably has a very conservative friendly SC too so you know this shit won't get overturned unless it's a federal issue and then I bet our current SC would totally find this poll tax legal. I'm just so sick of this fucking country.
  5. Whoever the nominee is, I really could do without all this bipartisan BS. The GOP party is gone, quit trying to work with them.
  6. Right, I'm not clear on these details. Basically the logical conclusion of someone refusing to show up even after a subpoena is that this just basically goes nowhere. House Dems should still go to whatever length they need to if they have spines.
  7. Seriously, you hold them in contempt of court who is responsible for arresting them and are they going to do it? Lawyer people on another board think it's very unlikely that would ever happen.
  8. Unless Harris absolutely destroys the SC primary, I really don't see her necessarily getting a huge push in Georgia even though we have the largest black population.
  9. It's nice to see the more left leaning posters on this site almost unanimously hate Biden. Probably the one thing we can all agree on.
  10. If you seriously think she's just going to ignore the Rust Belt after 2016 and non-educated poor whites and PoC then I don't know what to tell you, it's clear to a lot of us she understands the problems of many. It all depends on who gets elected to the Senate, these are ambitious proposals that likely aren't going to all easily get passed, instead they are to show us that she understands how much inequality exists right now.
  11. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/22/us/politics/elizabeth-warren-student-debt.html?module=inline It's canceling any federally held debt for households whose annual income is less than $100k. I don't get your argument about profit turned, you seriously think people who no longer have huge debt wouldn't be more freed to spend money that could stimulate the economy, or are we holding corporations as some perfect sacrosanct thing because America?
  12. I get that, but he's got a base that likely isn't going to care that much because many of them aren't going to tune in for a single debate. I'd like to see some polling after the first few debates on percentages of people who changed their primary vote based on performance.
  13. Right, you'd have a point if all of us didn't watch Wall Street and the big banks get bailed out for causing most of their own problems in 2008.
  14. Consider me skeptical that the debates will really change much unless Biden calls her a c**t or something and people finally drop him.
  15. If this wasn't happening, you'd probably see more people agree with you.
  16. Seriously, look at this movement.
  17. Holy shit, that last pitch Webb threw looked like a fucking wiffle ball. I rewound and watched it at least five times. He can be our closer now with stuff like that.
  18. Fuck Barstool, but this girl never deserves a moment without someone asking her if she shit her pants.
  19. Yeah I literally got a text from the Beto campaign when he was running for Senate because I had previously voted in Texas. There is absolutely no way that every big candidate doesn't have something like this, it's all about enthusiasm from your base not just blanketly calling people.
  20. Yeah I'm having a very hard time believing that many old white people are going to flip, especially if Bernie or Warren gets the nomination.
  21. One of the most commonly cited arguments that a Nordic version of capitalism with strong social welfare programs wouldn't work in the US is because we're not as homogeneous. Basically we're too racially diverse to enact policies that are used in the Nordic countries. So, 1. we can't make sure everyone has affordable healthcare and ensure our most wealthy contribute their fair share because we have too many non-whites and 2. American has suddenly become the country where we immediately give up on things because they're too hard.
  22. Gotta love that casually racist "homogeny" argument. Aren't we Americans and isn't being a snowflake that's incapable of doing something because it's too hard something to be ridiculed from y'all now?
  23. Sounds good to me, let's use that model and raise taxes on the wealthy.
