got any sevens posted:Dems should try doing things for leftists if they want their votes. i get the frustration and anger but politics is hard, bro. the system makes it easier to stop changes than to push it through. gently caress, if you don't believe it for the dems, check the gop. you think paul ryan likes the dogshit healthcare plan they put out? he wants full repeal, and to get rid of medicare too. but he doesn't have the votes. what i want to hear is, how do we do better? bc "blow up the system" isn't working. those red-stater assholes that were supposed to wake up and realize that free-market ideology is screwing them over? yea, they finally changed their minds. they want government benefits. but they aren't supporting the socialist, they're supporting the fascist, cuz they're still racist as gently caress. the left isn't some hidden supermajority. if you won't work with allies and make compromises how do you do better?

Hodgepodge posted:i honestly think that a large portion of the "left" just likes affirmation of the idea that they are better than the right, and the awfulness of the right, democratic polticians, and human suffering all facilitate this and are therefore nothing but the desired result eh, the firebagger portion of the left would be equally thrilled to turn on a president sanders the moment he needs to compromise with centrists to get anything done. the cspam thread would be something like "post sad bernie cucks realizing that their socialist messiah sold them out" also, leftie activism in the primaries of senate and house races is also really important to give any future dem president the votes to get their domestic agenda through congress. if the green party (for example) was serious about moving an agenda instead of grandstanding, it could stay out of the presidential races for now and focus hard on getting some seats in congress in deep blue states. build up party infrastructure and some dem allies, be like a pseudo-parliamentary coalition. eventually it might become strong enough to force the dems to either move left or be supplanted as the second major national party. but right now they're just someone's vanity project every 4 years

uber_stoat posted:yeah. I've heard all kinds of different reasons provided for why Trump got their vote and many of them bear no relation to anything Trump ever even said he was going to do. Trump's the avatar of these people's dreams and fantasies. how do people so stupid exist? yeah, but otoh, his campaign was consistent on exactly three issues: a) naked bigotry b) russophilia c) robust safety nets, including universal healthcare he delivered on the first 2 in spades. it was obvious to ppl even vaguely familiar with GOP politics that he couldn't do the third even if he wanted to. but it wasn't completely crazy for low-info voters to believe him on that. hell, if ryan manages to get his abomination to trump's desk in the midst of massive popular outrage, i wouldn't rule out trump pulling a veto at the last minute. he would get to pay back ryan for his tepid support during the election while grandstanding as the savior of the forgotten man. im sure bannon is whispering the idea into his ear right now Lindsey O. Graham posted:we are all losers in trump's america, unless you were already a winner beforehand oh lindsey, everyone can see you're living a lie. isn't it time you formally announce that you're "playing for the other team"? lord knows they'd welcome you without judgement..

lol, more dipshits It works for 56-year-old Linda Preast, who signed up for the program two years ago after a stroke left her in a wheelchair. Meals on Wheels delivers to her every weekday. Like most residents in Jones County, she voted for Donald Trump. “Are you surprised?” Miller asked. “Yeah,” Preast said. “Because he was told- I was under the influence that he was going to help us.”

Another trumpkin on npr this morning: lost his farm to the midwest wildfires and upset that he hasn't heard trump mention them even once. agrees the us needs to spend less bc of debt but upset that the trump budget cuts disaster aid. would appreciate if the federal government would help him back on his feet, but NOT looking for a handout

indigi posted:remember when someone yesterday complained that politics was hard and you can't whip senators/representatives into voting the way you want i said that, over a week ago, and its held up drat well. even i wasn't expecting the gop to just give up on repealing the aca two months in, after 7 years of promises. now that universal healthcare is an accepted goal, and with republicans harping about insurers pulling out of unprofitable markets, medicare for all can be added next time dems have full control, and it will be very popular with blue collar white voters in middle america. if the trump presidency keeps going at this rate, that could happen as early as 2020.

the problem with protecting innocent vulnerable ppl is that terrible ppl never get what's coming to them. best we can hope is a fiery left-wing populist manages to yell some truth at them and some of it sticks also, this regretful trump voter is surprisingly (suspiciously?) coherent and engaged, all things considered: quote:I’m bitterly disappointed that they couldn’t come up with a better plan. But I’m very glad this particular plan didn’t pass. It fell far short of their promises. And the blame falls on both Republicans in Congress and Trump. They’ve been espousing for years that they’ve been ready to take this on, that they can solve this issue, and right out of the box, they present something that falls far short of the goal. I’m really glad it did not pass.

Epic High Five posted:abertion don't forget obummer phones and welfare queens Alienwarehouse posted:I don't understand how any working class voter who pulled the lever for Trump could ever vote for a republican again after reading the contents of that absurd GOP healthcare bill that just got thrown out. Not only did it allow insurance companies to literally throw you on the street to rot; the bill also cut near $900,000,000,000 in funds annually from loving Medicaid. This single-handedly gave the blue wall/Rustbelt back to the democrats. The unparalleled greed of the Freedom Caucus and Koch bros are in part to thank here. lol u think those voters will remember or care about it in 3 years? dont get me wrong, i'm glad the republicans hosed up their repeal plans and embarrassed themselves. but the takeaway for the working class republican voters will not be that they dodged a bullet, but that they were right all along. they voted trump as a middle finger to the establishment and betting that republicans wouldn't really gently caress them over so blatantly, and now they won that bet. unless a democrat can make them believe that they will enact policies that directly benefit them, they might as well vote for the one that makes them feel better for being white
