if some form of the ACA repeal-and-replace gets out of congress and is signed by trump, i have a good chance of losing medicaid coverage because it cuts several billion dollars of federal funds for New York to run it. meanwhile, the best chance for me to get a career position in the field i want to work in is to volunteer at a hospital for no pay because there are zero entry-level jobs for it where i live. so why should i buy into the full-court press on Russia? there's something to it, but trump isn't going to get impeached over it, which is the endgame for democrats and their surrogates in the mediacomedyblissoption posted:without knowing anything about feminism or prominent activists of that cause and just being a dude, it seems superficially to me that there is a strain of feminist that believes putting women in positions of power is the most important thing. putting women in positions of power is more important than the policies of these women in power.

You can and should recognize that it's in your interest to make Congress dig into all the Trump-Russia bullshit thoroughly, if for no other reason that it would give them less time to try and pass repeal-and-replace legislation.

In the magical event that Trump really is a moscowian candidate and we aren't just burning all the money because an ideologically compromised security firm jumped at red shadows what is the actual result you think we will get that will be in any way positive. Natsec is already compromised to a degree that Trump will not come close to going by yesterday's statement from Shadowbrokers regarding the eternalblue package. In the event you impeach trump for doing something that until he did the places currently attacking him were calling for you get a president who thinks gay internment and reeducation camps are a good use of public funds. The other idiocy of the Russia stuff is that even if it makes people who aren't bolted on dems care about trump it still does gently caress all to win the fights that matter like the house, Senate and state governments.

I guess my point was how does any of that have to do with mocking poo poo? Like, if you want to make fun of the Russian thing feel free, it'll just make you look like an idiot. If you want this to be the Democratic strategy thread, gently caress that.

I don't think it's wrong to look at people like Louise Mensch and Seth Abramson and Eric Garland, and not come away pretty skeptical. Whatever actual fire comes out of the smoke is going to be way less exciting than people want it to be. Are people afraid of foreign influence on our political system? Great. Then let's root out the Israel lobby, or Saudi Arabia's influence, or the influence of multinational corporations that cheat on their taxes owed to us instead of using the Treasury Department as a weapon to defend Apple abroad. I'm all for consistency. The problem is that Trump and his crew are a gaggle of idiotic buffons who are having a 24/7 meltdown on the taxpayer dollar only feeds the fire, and when people like the woman who thinks her florist and free wi-fi networks are agents of the Russian Deep State gets legitimized in places like the New York Times, their unreality issues and derangement only being accelerated by the feedback loop of social media, it begins to create a toxic environment for anything actually getting done about the crippling foundations of our country and the millions that have fallen into poverty and will continue into poverty.

The 2006 wave didn't happen because Pelosi and Reid inspired the masses, it happened because the news came out that a number of Republicans were straight up crooks, and Bush's brand was toxic. I understand that you'd rather that Dems at least tried to inspire the masses, and so would I, but at long last Dems are taking a page out of the Republican playbook and doing everything in their power to make the other guys radioactive.

Also I'd be more annoyed by the whole trump-russia thing if it weren't proven to be a legitimate political tactic with the whole emails thing, and also because it's making trump implode

I think with Trump the conclusion I've reached is that he has no allies and thus why this Russian thing keeps popping up. The Paul Ryan wing hates his rear end and threw him under the bus many-a-time leading up to and after his election. The democrats hate him. The "deep state" (CIA/FBI) hates him. The media hates him as well. Even Fox News is apathetic at best about the man at times. Obama, Bush, Clinton...all got bailed out by their party, various media outlets during their time in office. This whole thing may or may not be true, but he has no life saver to reach out to. it spoke volumes for example that Chuck Schumer said some sort of line being  about how you're not supposed to make enemies with the intelligence agencies, and that's likely what we're seeing about now.I'm just not quite so sure if the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" works in this scenario. Impeaching/removing Trump from office is largely cosmetic at this point and does little to solve the systemic problems from the local government on up. I mean it's probably going to happen at this point, but the damage everyone who I just typed up is already done. (and it's been done for a long rear end time)

I believe I saw sexism directed at palin a couple of times during the 08 election, but I don't recall anyone really standing up for her in good faith. I mean you had the Hannity's of the world stand up for her, but that's coming from a place of being tribal rather than standing up against some percieved sexism. Is being pro-life a deal breaker I guess? It has to be that and the amount of sway the Clinton's have had within the left since 1992 or so.

So all the regulars from the old thread still post here to mock the democrats and all the people that were complaining that they couldn't drop sick burns on all the regulars quickly gave up because  This isn't the altright/gamergate thread.

FuzzySkinner posted:https://twitter.com/Julie_Johnsoned/status/865319213535301635 Sharing one of my (least) favorite anecdotes of DNC pettiness. http://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/users/rauch/nvp/civil/hentoff_casey.html quote:...As governor of Pennsylvania from 1987 to 1994, Casey created model school-based child-care programs that offered infants and preschoolers--including poor children--full-day services and before- and after-school programs. That way, teenage parents could stay in school and poor adults could go to work knowing their children were safe. He lobbied unsuccessfully for universal health care in his state, but, failing that, as The New York Times reported in its May 31 obituary, "he did sign a bill providing health insurance for children whose families were too poor to pay for it but whose incomes were too high to be eligible for public assistance." Before breast cancer became a political cliche, Casey invested $1 million in awareness and screening for the disease and required HMOs to pay for annual mammograms for women over 40. As for Palin I vaguely remember seeing an article in -I think it was The Guardian- saying "Hey, can we cut out the sexist behavior against Palin?"
