Wow the dow is nearly twice that! Does that mean I have twice as much money? Surely with such a healthy economy homelessness, poverty, and deaths of despair must be down.

It's one of the few things that will still get under my skin from seeing dumbass Biden defenders in the wild. They'll say something like, oh the Republicans are in such a mess they couldn't even pick a speaker. And it's like, yeah, they were slightly embarrassed in the press for a couple of days and a radical wing of the party got a bunch of poo poo that they wanted. And no one normal cared and it didn't materially hurt them. Same thing with the tea party or a bunch of other stunts. It gets treated as dumb, pointless and chaotic but then you look and they pretty much won. So...

its almost like giving your voters things that they want is a better strategy than yelling at them that they won't get anything ever and they're idiots for even asking

I think the democrats tricked me into giving them my email and phone number because I requested a mail-in ballot for their hosed up new privatized primary in Missouri and at this point I'm pretty sure they didn't send me one.

But this period in history–you’re right–it was all about who can control the jobs in the government. And by doing that, get money into the pockets of their own voters. Some of that money gets kicked back to the head of the party. And that person will–because they have a job now that they owe to you–vote for you in the next election. And the Democrats are slightly more racist than the Republicans. The Republicans are slightly more business and rich person-focused than the Democrats. But otherwise, that’s about it. It’s really these two parties that are just fighting for money and power with, like you’re saying, very little ideology. We’re so used to the idea of an ideologically based party system that it can seem shocking to read about America in the late 19th-early 20th century and be like, “Well, why were they even in parties? They didn’t stand for anything. Like, maybe they disagreed on the tariff–how high the tariff should go–on imported goods. But why even bother?” At a certain point, it’s like the Giants versus the Jets or something like that. It just matters what part of New Jersey we’re born in–whether you’re an Eagles fan or a Giants fan. It’s just “Well, everyone I know supports this, so I’m going to support it, too.” It’s a funny way to look at it. So, this idea of progressivism is just like, “Can we make this a little professional? Can we have a reason for why we’re doing things?”

This is great news for liberals because if/when Biden loses in Nov, they have their scolding targets all lined up and ready. All the old standbys (youth vote, ignorant / apathetic minorities, radical left, etc etc)

The screeching will be heard a few star systems over.

so Biden is weeks away from getting enough committed delegates to just take the nomination outright, yet we've had months of polling showing that Biden will probably lose against Trump

why doesn't the Democratic Party want to win?

They might still shove Biden out? But if that's the plan, they want to make sure the convention delegates are all Biden delegates so they can just be ordered to make it Her Turn or some other stupid idea rather than allow the voters to pick the nominee.
