Harik posted:How the gently caress was this supposed to work? Were we just counting on their citizens expecting "Papers, please!" around every street corner and not realizing you could freely travel inside the US? How does any visa restriction work in any country? Most visa rules in most countries are 80% honor based and 20% "if we catch you we will kick you out and never let you back in" instead of any real minute to minute enforcement.

Majorian posted:This is the assumption that Dems made in 2016, and it absolutely didn't pan out: "Oh, look at Trump's negatives! We don't need to link Republicans to him; it will alienate those white affluent moderate suburbanites that we want to win, and people know not to vote for the party Trump's running with anyway." if you're going to say stupid things that don't make sense if you read the rest of my post i suppose it makes it less obvious if you delete the parts you didn't read, but it's still stupid you couldn't read a single sentence all the way to the end before mashing post

Krispy Kareem posted:You guys remember how even with polls picking Hillary, electoral history said the Republican should win the election? And that one researcher who has correctly predicted every election in the last couple of decades said his data pointed to Trump regardless of common sense? Even when 'nothing matters', stuff still matters. "Losing seats" will definitely happen. IDK about the House. It's a lot of seats.

I just want someone to call the WH reps out for repeatedly calling the media liars to their face. Get mad! They're directly insulting you, do something about it. I know this would be a bad move because it means playing their game but gently caress it makes me angry to see that go unchallenged constantly.

Trump may be stylistically different from Ryan and McConnell, but they ultimately have the same aims: make most Americans poorer, dumber, and more paranoid. That's something that can't be emphasized enough. e: I'm glad that you recognize the need for the Dems to say why they'd be good, but they really do need to do both things at the same time.

Even when 'nothing matters', stuff still matters. Every single election you hear a billion of these, half of them are wrong, then 4 years later they all come back and do the exact same tour, just adding another rule to their "prediction" to cover if they hosed up the last election.

evilweasel posted:This is the same misunderstanding of privatization. This is going to be a non-profit government-controlled corporation, not a privately owned for-profit corporation. My worry would be that it would then draw the same sort of contempt republicans seem to have for other entities in that mold and face the same sort of fuckery they try pulling with those (massive pre-funding requirements for benefits, etc. as in the case of USPS), all with the unstated goal of government divestment and sale of assets and operation to for-profit enterprises.

Majorian posted:There's no need for that; I'm not trying to be disrespectful to you. the hillary campaign was generally criticized for doing too much stuff about why Trump sucks and too little about "here is what i, hillary clinton, will do for you". people who are reachable re: trump sucks know he sucks. they know he's a republican. if you don't know he sucks, a democratic candidate for congress isn't going to be the one who convinces you. so the democratic candidates want to run on their positive vision for america, run against republicans generally - and that includes the specific terrible things candidate x voted for, like the ahca - but to not waste their time on how much of a garbage person trump is and what a burning trash fire his administration is because if you don't know that by now, how is anyone going to convince you, but you can perhaps be convinced that your representative voted to take away your health care and the democratic candidate is saying some sensible things that are good for you even though you still believe in your heart of hearts, because you lack a brain, trump still is fighting for you edit: to be clear that last sentence the "you" refers to our hypothetical idiot trump voter not you, the poster majorian evilweasel fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Jun 5, 2017 |
