no one said it was an emergency just a symptom of how polarized and hosed politics have become literally nothing gets fixed through politics in this country which is why things are only going to continue to get worse until something happens for the better or much worse

I actually think the election of Trump might be the beginning of a more populist swing in US politics that could end up somewhere positive. Yes, he's a huge and stupid first step, but we could go other interesting places from here that aren't so moronic. The Clinton machine being in a death spiral is also 100% a good thing for US progressive politics. Everything sucks at the moment but there's a lot of potential for change right now that just didn't seem possible at all in the previous 20 years.

“You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?
The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.”

Yeah, what I mean is that the Democrats want to try and appeal to those people rather than try to pull in the people who didn't vote

When Mormons gave black people the right to a soul, Mitt Romney pulled over and cried. It was out of joy.

When the state of Arkansas took back the slaves that worked at the governor's mansion, Hillary Clinton also cried. It was not out of joy.

I remember when Romney bitched about students and retirees not paying taxes, while he paid half the percentage that I do.

Then I also remembered the GOP looking at that and saying "lol rich people still pay too much better give em some huge cuts."

I remembered that last part because it's happening right now.
