Also, California votes have no impact on the general elections, which I find to be ridiculous because the state contributes the most to the gdp. I think we should change the electoral college to popular vote, but that's a discussion for another day.

The House of Representatives is as close as it is today because of California.

Yes, reluctantly because 1) my vote doesn't matter because I live in California, and 2) I knew she didn't do enough to win. I normally don't vote in the presidential elections because California doesn't  matter in our stupid electoral system, but this time I did.

"My vote doesn't matter" - Strike one

"I reluctantly voted for her" - ronburgandyidontbelieveyou.gif Strike two

"She didn't do enough to win"  - She did everything to win.  What else could she do other than bleach her skin? Fuck it, I'll neg anything you post now.

What does the House have anything to do with the Presidential elections? The richest states currently don't decide Presidential elections.

I think what utee is saying sounds like my dad's first step in becoming free from the maga tribe.

My dad had to rationalize it downwards from each step to make the journey. It's hard for people to wholesale believe they're completely wrong in their beliefs

Too many fucking morons on this board. I now understand why people dislike this board so much. Enjoy your eco chamber. I am out.

Market is rallying on rumors that Trump is pausing the tariffs for 90 days except for China. Trump saved the economy that he tried to ruin!

So a 90 day pause and then what?  This all smells like a massive market manipulation scheme.

Politics by their nature are argumentative, or at least they should be. It's ok if you don't agree with the vast majority of posters and that we don't agree with you. Taking your ball and going home because people find your reasoning idiotic is only the answer if you yourself don't believe in your decisions.

Correct. To ignore that reality was the mistake the dems made. They would have won easily if the candidate was a white Christian male. This election was too important to gamble with the deep rooted racism in our country.

Agree with Imma. Some of you folks are like women. Worried more about motivations than results. 
 

If somebody votes against this shit, whatever their reasoning take the win and put it in the fucking book.

Being attacked and dogpiling isn't conducive to a conversation and this is a thread about the trump economy. 

You all collectively are doing shit that is keeping people from joining the conversation. You do realize that there's quite a few people who share the sentiment and now instead of getting any kind of traction you guys have run off a poster. This isn't some fucking good deed you did, this is a community that you are actively making worse by shitting on someone and dogpiling a thread derail. 

Bro, the only reply to him I made was to tell him not to leave. It probably came off like I was a dick though in rereading it.

Yeah, typically it's a true troll that wanders in, but in this case you guys are just piling on a reasonable person you just happen to not agree with fully. @UTEE97 the best I can tell you is people are just pissed and lashing out, but by and large you will find the most rational folks here.

You wonder why this country is so divided. Nobody listens or tries to understand where people are coming from, so the root cause never gets addressed.

Shoutout to Trump for not blowing up the world in order to save his ego.  Like, fuck that guy, but that's a mighty big step for him.  If its true and all.

Your comment after the others I wasn't singling you out. I've been telling people to knock it off for 2 pages and yet here we are dogpiling still

@UTEE97 didn't do shit besides come in here and have an opinion, that quite frankly isn't controversial or even inflammatory and everyone starts dogpiling him. Knock that shit off. He's not trying to dominate the thread with some 5head insights that you can't possibly understand, he came in and threw his 2 cents in and you all lit him on fire and shoved him out the door. 

Everyone grow the fuck up.

I'm sorry that you didn't find the echo chamber you were looking for. The one where everyone tells you that you were right and it's not your fault. 

Guess what? It is your fault. When you're ready to accept that you've been conned and are a huge sucker you will finally have a shot at helping to fix things. Until then you will continue to lash out when the people who were smart enough not to be fooled point out that you weren't.

Do they need 50% or 2/3 of both houses to take back tariff control (which they obviously should have never fucking handed over in the first place)?

I don't think it's going to ever make it that far. I expect it's an attempt to show that at least a handful of 'sensible people' want to do something about tariffs.

Wrong. They need to understand WHY they were wrong or it will just happen again.

You did such a great job explaining it in the trump economy thread. I definitely think the member of a message board community having a conversation in the politics section of the board in the trump economy thread definitely now understands why they were wrong. You are so great, thank you for making the board better by your contribution.

That isn't to discount the elephant in the room of the national debt, and the doom spiral that loomed, but there would have been a less catastrophic approach. 

we need to elect a whole fuck load more democrats if you ever want that dealt with.

I would assume 2/3 since they will have to override a Trump veto.

Also, I'm not mad and no one is in trouble or gonna get banned or anything. I'm just trying to get the people reading to understand my vantage point as the person who you know, is responsible for keeping the community healthy. Stuff like this is obviously unhealthy.

I explained it if he wants to learn. If he doesn't then why would I waste more time?

His statement that the Democratic Party has drifted too far left is a fundamental reason we are where we are. Until he understands how wrong that is it's pointless to engage any more than the minimal effort I gave. 

And nobody fucks this board up more than you so you can miss me with that.

I thought Cruz had jumped ship, too. He sees the disaster turnip is creating, but hasn’t the courage to oppose it.

That gutless wonder left his little dog at home and took off to Cancun. That's after he let Trump insult his wife, capitulated and made campaign phone calls. He ain't gonna do shit

I was thinking he must have heard the ringer in Florida was getting the SCOTUS nod. But, you’re right.
