Identity politics? That's a republican issue. They bring it up. The most democrats do is block, but all the punches are thrown by the right in campaigns. I didn't even hear a gun control proposal this round.

There may exist a scenario where north korea is trying to build something that looks suspiciously like an Ohio class submarine and he has a strange golf bar appear on his desk.

The president can't? Let's see of the Supreme Court has anything to say about that. Right now, I'm not confident the word can't is in their dictionary as far as a president is concerned.

I get so frustrated at the poor messaging. Glen younkin stood on stage against mcauffee and straight up lied about crt in school, and no body called him out in it.

Maybe thr PA education system didn't include things like the great depression

Hillary was the lightning rod of the party for 20 years. If thought that that had something to do with it. There's something we aren't acknowledging. There's a something wrong in the heart of America and its growing, not shrinking. Whatever that emotion that's driven it, it's not going away.

I guess I forgot to mention it, but he has also always had a temper.

Let me think about what I know about a trump supporter in my family who wasn't one in 2016, but was die hard in 2020 and 2024.

Nothing has ever been his fault. He used to buy into supernatural urban legend stuff. I don't know if he still does. He had no job in 2020 but still thinks he was doing better than in 2016, so his own employment either doesn't matter to his well-being, or he's detached from reality. I mean I think it's the second.

He didn't used to be racist (10 years ago), but I'm pretty sure he quotes fbi crime statistics without context now. I'm not sure how you reach that. He used to be moderate or even left of american center, but now all the news that is not Tim Poole is fake.

Oh and he was part of an ayn rand sex cult for a year there. He still believes her stuff despite having been kicked out by the leader.

I don't think he's newly mobilized though so whoever was this go around may be different. I don't know if it matters now. I feel like organizing may get some crack down in the near future. Best case is he's so incompetent that he can't implement the policies he said he will and people can vote freely in the future.

You will never be forgiven

Edit: with all we've seen sarcasm may be a little hard to detect

I think the important part is that it's florida that'd be removing them, and the rest of it that I didn't copy is how florida restores them. This is Florida's constitution. If we interpreted that way, he can never get them back. Florida took them away and he cannot have them back until NY restores them, which they can't
