Just have to keep cutting until that number is 100% and then we will finally be safe from voting for policies that someone might not like

The Democratic party has transformed into a profit-driven machine that seeks to maximize donations and thus promotes those who are best at securing donations. One of the best ways to get donations is to be the opposition party out of power, which makes the most reliable way to get donations is to lose elections. Therefore, people who lose elections get promoted within the Democratic party. That's why they're such losers. Not through intention or forethought, but by a near Darwinian mechanic whereby losers get the most donations and therefore staff the Democratic party.

Thank you for you time.

By this logic wouldn't the Democrats also be incentivized to bolster the most psychotic opposition possible as well, in order to help open the panicky donation taps

But that can't be right

So why is 49 votes enough to pass something in the Senate now?

They only need more votes when it's things the Democrats are going to vote against but would like you to be a credulous bootlock and pretend they would vote for them if only, like healthcare or money for starving American children

Democrats' strategy of doing gently caress all and then vote scolding vs Republicans' strategy of eliminating the problem of people voting against them entirely

quote:

The plan, as outlined by a Republican National Committee staffer in Michigan, includes utilizing rules designed to provide political balance among poll workers to install party-trained volunteers prepared to challenge voters at Democratic-majority polling places, developing a website to connect those workers to local lawyers and establishing a network of party-friendly district attorneys who could intervene to block vote counts at certain precincts.

�Being a poll worker, you just have so many more rights and things you can do to stop something than [as] a poll challenger,� said Matthew Seifried, the RNC�s election integrity director for Michigan, stressing the importance of obtaining official designations as poll workers in a meeting with GOP activists in Wayne County last Nov. 6. It is one of a series of recordings of GOP meetings between summer of 2021 and May of this year obtained by POLITICO.

Backing up those front-line workers, �it�s going to be an army,� Seifried promised at an Oct. 5 training session. �We�re going to have more lawyers than we�ve ever recruited, because let�s be honest, that�s where it�s going to be fought, right?�

Imagine how much of a slam dunk it would have been for the democrats to just bypass legislature and have the parties buy baby formula, send it to where it's needed and hand that poo poo out for free with COURTESY OF DIAMOND JOE AND THE DEMOCRATS on a fuckoff sized banner. Imagine if everytime the Republicans stonewalled them in Congress they'd just do something like that. All these years all the donor bucks and they just sit on them

That would be a diversion of critical resources away from the sucker -> dnc -> consultant grifter -> ad buying grifter -> focus group running grifter -> ad producing grifter supply chain

Most democrats really aren't aware of how out of touch they are. I always remember Obama's old plan to "fix" student debt. The idea was that the government would create a ranking of universities based on metrics like % who graduate on time and % who remain enrolled, and reducing student loans available to students enrolled at universities and colleges who got low scores on those criteria. And it was on the verge of being adopted, until community colleges organized themselves to point out that it is very common for students of communities colleges who also work to take semesters off, or just be part time students, and that as such this would essentially devastate community colleges.

Now, stop and think about that for a second: all the "experts" in the Obama admin simply did not think about community colleges in their college plan, despite it being by far the largest type of institution in the US by enrollment. Democrat higher ups are essentially incapable of imagining the world of people who haven't been chasing prestige and credentials from birth.

Also classic Dem policy in that the solution was punitive because that's free* while actually helping anyone costs money and that's hard don't you know we need that political capital to send more missiles to Ukraine

*except for the pmc grifters who operate the program but that's just a lil skim off all the money you save by means testing people into the gutter

It's genuinely hard for me to understand that reaction of "well the overall economy is doing great!" when the complaining person is saying "high gas and food prices are making my life much harder"

The first thing doesn't in any way address the second thing so why are you bringing it up?

The democrats completely stopped doing anything positive legislatively about five decades ago and now prefer to simply tell you to shut the gently caress up and vote for them or else you're defacto supporting New Hitler by your absence of support for Current Hindenburg

The baby formula shortage continued to worsen last week despite actions from the Biden administration to ease constraints, according to retail tracking data.

Out-of-stock rates climbed to 74% nationally for the week ending May 28, according to data on 130,000 stores followed by Datasembly. The increase comes after rates spiked to 70% for the week ending May 21 from 45% the week prior.

Ten states now have out-of-stock rates at 90% or greater, including Arizona, Mississippi, California, Nevada, Tennessee, Rhode Island, Louisiana, Florida and Washington. Georgia is the hardest hit at 94%, a jump from 74% the week before.

Looks like the Dems are stretching the definition of the word "compromise" here:

https://twitter.com/AP/status/1536015973324562435

Basically they agreed with the GOP's idea of doing nothing, but they will still try to run on this as a major accomplishment in 2022.

wrong

quote:

The agreement would offer money to states to enact and put in place �red flag� laws that make it easier to temporarily take guns from people considered potentially violent, plus funds to bolster school safety and mental health programs.

Congressional aides said billions of dollars would be spent expanding the number of community mental health centers and suicide prevention programs. But they said some spending decisions are unresolved, as are final wording on juvenile records and other gun provisions that might prove contentious.

it's not nothing, it's going to be billions of dollars for cops

iirc back in 2020 Biden was the only dem candidate in the primaries who never acknowledged that police brutality is bad, and instead only ever promised to prosecute BLM protesters who were "violent"

quote:

Joe Biden first ran for U.S. Senate in 1972 as the Vietnam War was entering its waning years. He was not a tenacious anti-war voice, nor did he embrace the anti-war movement, saying he was �not big on flak jackets and tie-dye shirts.� Biden described himself at the time as being married, in law school, and wearing sports coats. He professed a �lack of moral outrage� at the war. He described walking through campus with law school friends one day and seeing other students occupying office buildings in protest. �They were taking over the building,� Biden said. �And we looked up and said, �Look at these assholes.� That�s how far apart from the anti-war movement I was.�

Joe Biden was a piece of poo poo when we was literally going to school with vietnam protesters; he never even had a performative era like pelosi or aoc did, just straight up dropped out of the college Young Democrat diecast machine into a senate seat
