Dems may have totally shut the GOP out of Orange County, it is with great happiness that I can announce that the planned OC gulags will no longer be necessary.

There was one video (I won't post it bc it's  to gently caress) of a dude who was in a group of cars trying to escape that got overrun, he somehow made it but he filmed the convoy of cars after and each car had a charred skeleton in it. It's loving bad.The Woolsey fire took my mom's house, and the pictures i'm seeing of the neighborhood straight up looks like a nuke went off. It's amazing

Main Paineframe posted:It may be "lazy", but it's not wrong, and the fact that it's "dems bad" doesn't mean you can just handwave it away. The fact of the matter is that the Dems controlled Congress for most of the second half of the 20th century, at times reaching supermajority levels (not just 60 votes, but 66+ votes for an actual 2/3rds-supermajority). I count at least eleven Congressional terms since WWII where the Dems controlled both houses of Congress and the presidency. The reason we don't have a public option, more than six decades after the first bill suggesting one was written, is because the Democrats have failed to rally behind one. With a brief exception after 1964, much of the Democratic majorities of the second half of the 20th century were propped up by tons of seats held by very conservative Southern congressmen who were more than happy to stonewall progressive policy and work with Republicans. Compare the baseline to the short bursts of government expansion in the 30’s, mid-60’s and late 2000’s when Democrats had more progressive caucuses.

b-minus1 posted:1.8 million "other" votes jfc Top-two primary means a lot of races have a Republican/Democrat against a third party. If I had to choose between a Republican and say a Libertarian I would vote for the Libertarian as a protest vote. Edit: Oh just noticed that graph is nationwide, nevermind.

And despite what Trump says, the Camp Fire is likely caused by the investor owned utility (pg&e) refusing to trim trees and then refusing to turn off the power when the wind gusts got dangerous. This is at least the 9th fire in 2 years they've caused this way.

When Dems actually have meaningful numbers in Congress (beyond a Dinesh D’Souza-esque cursory look at party labels), they’ve been fairly productive. Those periods of time have been brief, gains were poorly consolidated and they generated quite a bit of backlash. I would have loved for Obama to have at least another 2 years to work with a Democratic House.
