First world citizens are finally figuring out that neoliberal economic policies hosed them hard. Now whether they can see that the blame lies with the rich(and themselves) and not immigrants/brown people is the question.

The only way I see NK being 'fixed' is if China takes his rear end out on a state visit or something meanwhile they sit down all their generals and explain how its gonna work. Thats probably the only way we end the dynasty without getting shitloads of South Koreans killed.

Yeah but he can't and its honestly the best thing for us. He has to respond to every little needle and then his administration has to spend many man hours dealing with it. Basically, every time Trump says something, it's wasting time they'd otherwise be using to gently caress Americans over.

No, you're right. All of those seats the Tea Party turned in 2010 were obviously because their voters were mad they weren't liberal enough.

They went liberal in the wrong ways(gun control) and then gave the entire banking industry(the only people with worse popular ratings than Congress) a free pass so yeah I'll stand by my assertion that centrism is a losing proposition for Democrats

my favorite part of this article is also my response to anyone that says the Democrats simply cant afford to make a chance and must keep with this centrist, GOP-lite bullshit.

"Post-Obama-Clinton, its most admired national leaders (Biden, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren) are of Social Security age. It rules no branch of federal government, holds only 16 governorships, and controls only 14 state legislatures."
