I like how everyone against the free college and poo poo always demands to know how we’re going to pay for it while we currently throw billions and billions to the military without a second thought.

That would be kinda funny if someone in cspam came up with it, but I think the leaders of the democratic party can do better they can't

A) it's in the middle of the EU and B) it's mountainous terrain and highly-armed and very healthy populace would make for a terrible guerrilla war. One step at a time.

The main attack against AOC will continue to be that "she doesn't know how to do the things she promises." Every jackoff with an opinion is now a brain genius liberal pundit armed with the hard cold truth that "things are actually quite complex and you can't just do stuff."

Now let me tell you how this works," This is why we need a hundred more AOCs in Congress, so we have enough power that the lanyard drones actually obey.

It's not nearly complicated enough, so it's not a plan and your idea isn't even worth trying. Now let me tell you how this works,"

You can't swing a cat without hitting a lawyer in DC, and any one of them could do it for you. The idea that legislators write all these laws themselves is idiotic. It's almost like everyone's forgotten about ALEC.

It's also like the debate over UBI vs. Jobs Guarantee or whatever is kinda dumb when the real answer should be "first we need to concentrate on getting people who will agree to do whichever looks better at the time"

The best thing about the Deplorables speech was that people are still convinced that Bernie caused Hillary to lose by also hinting at the existence of basket #2

logikv9 posted:deplorables was absolutely too weak of a descriptor It was classic Hillary in that it was too broadly applied and not harsh enough at the same time. She didn't insult the Nazis enough, but then she unintentionally insulted a bunch of people she had no intention of insulting (she thought #2 was going to vote for her and didn't want to insult them, instead they felt lumped in) too much. But then #2 barely actually exists on the right anyway, and this is just a whole big empty black void of suck.

Clinton had a pretty good understanding of most GOP voters and was mostly correct, and then couldn't be bothered to stick to her guns when she said a correct thing that didn't focus test well with people who would never vote for her anyway. edit: as previously mentioned, there is some overlap between the baskets

You don't have to be capable of writing in "legalese" to be a representative of the people, because that's what your staff is for. You determine what you want to do, and then you hire people to figure out how to write it and say it.

Hillary was correct but stupid enough to say something like that publicly. It was her version of 47% or whatever that dumb thing Romney said.
