idiotsavant posted:actually I distinctly remember Obama dangling Medicare expansion over red state’s heads while saying “oooooh would Buddy wike a widdle snackie yes yes? Mmmmmm” before cruelly whisking it away for no reason at all and eating it himself Is this after he became 25 feet tall and started sleeping outside and wandering the land? After the Muslims took all the guns with them to the moon? After we began to envy them? idiotsavant posted:look you reap what you sow. try and pull stuff like putting extreme liberal leftist judges on the courts and you better believe that Republicans will nominate some real garbage hacks once they come back to power. You wouldn’t want that now would you??! ahahaha I love it

Guys, guys, we all know that the best way to deal with bullies isn't by confronting them, but by running and tattleing to the teacher. If you confront the bully that just makes them mad and even more dangerous, the best thing to do is to wait for a magical authority figure to insert itself into the situation and resolve the problem for you- no confrontation required!

Why do you think flyover states are receiving more in welfare than they pay in taxes? Our past federal policies of spreading wealth and jobs around the country were abandoned, with neoliberal support. Here's a link about Obama totally not just telling people who lost their jobs to retrain for new jobs that don't exist: https://time.com/65635/obama-job-training-initiative/

Kinda weak IMO when the best theme song already exists: Who's got the sweetest disposition? One guess, guess who! Who never, never starts an argument? Who never shows a bit of temperament? Who's never wrong but always right? (Donald: Yeah?) Who'd never dream of starting a fight? (That so?!) Who gets stuck... With all the bad luck? No one... (incoherent squawking) But Donald https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhlf6pfZpXU

Obama said Wednesday the Labor Department is offering $500 million worth of grants to community colleges with these types of programs as a part of an existing Trade Adjustment Assistance and Community College and Career Training competitive grant program, which has previously rewarded schools that connect out-of-work Americans with jobs in regional economies. Obama also touted a $100 million expansion of apprenticeship programs, which the administration calls a proven path to employment and entry into the middle class. maybe obama did that, i don't know, but that story doesn't back up your point

Ok Comboomer posted:You should read my effortpost instead of making a strawman to fight. Like I directly address this. Let's be clear, Trump cutting off federal funding to blue states has nothing to do with getting things he wants done, it's all about spite. The blue states could comply with his every wish and he'd still keep funding cut off because he knows the states won't vote for him. You want to cut federal funding off to red states until they do good things for their poor and underprivileged? Cool. But cutting the funding off just because Trump wanted to do the same, and the red states deserve some pain too? gently caress that poo poo.

SCOTUS is hosed but the degree that it’s hosed still matters. A 6-3 or 7-2 court can be a great deal more partisan for a longer period of time than a 5-4 court.

Like, right there in the same room with the bastard himself, live, without masks or PPE or anti-necrophage immunizations or even strong hallucinogens; just a few thousand other people breathing the same rancid air as that pale, bald, decaying cranium and praying in vain for a pacemaker failure before it starts forming words. If ever they were an occasion where would be fully appropriate to drop acid and attempt to unlock your latent psychic powers- this would be it.

It is gonna be hilarious to see how he spins his way out of appointing a replacement if a democrat gains the oval office in year one of a new term. Can't use the 'wait till the new election' strategy anymore, already went against that with appointing a new replacement one month before midterms happened; can't use the 'we dont need a new seat' gambit either, he's on national broadcast sipping sweet tea saying he'd fill it if there's an opening right after election ends and his party is in power. It's all for moot if democrat voters dont get off their loving asses and show up to the polls for once.
