Where do we go from here?

Funny to hear you still talking about ignorance in a time where people on your side should be doing a little more soul searching about the bubbles you live in and the weird stances your party has locked itself into.

Soul search about the economy?

Not to argue any point here, but that’s a really shitty graph that’s difficult to read. As a communications guy who regularly works with statisticians and scientists to make things that are easily understood by lay people…this would be one of my “don’t” examples.

Short version - Republicans “feel” like the economy is bad whenever a Dem is President, and feel great when Trump is president, no matter what. Can’t wait for two months from now when 95% of Trump voters suddenly say the economy is great

Hell I bought 3 months worth of granola at Costco last week because it was 30% off LOL

Isn’t a 3 month supply about the smallest purchase that can be made at Costco?

I don't have a damned thing to be ashamed of. I've told no lies and not threatened anybody's rights.

HY’s definition of ignorance is to be unaware of the alternate reality facts that low information voters share, rather than be knowledgeable of the actual facts themselves.

False equivalency.

For the Quaker granola it's lasts like 2 weeks in our house for the 2 bag pack. So I got a whole lot

The economy will suddenly become greatest economy of all time on January 21,2025.

Mark your calendar and have a bottle of Dom Perignon on ice

I like to think I'm pretty solid at reading a chart and I have no fucking clue what that one shows or portends to show.

So "working class" , no college degree folks-you were better off in the massive unemployment, supply chain shortage, pandemic days of Trump?
Am I getting it right here ?

Which weird stances?

Like the one that every human should be treated equally from a legal and government stand point? That racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc are wrong and people should be able to live their best life?

Like the one that everyone should have the right to practice their religion, but not be allow to force others to?

Please share some of these weird stances?

I think it's a weird stance that one party elected a felon.

Top of my head…

That people are just pawns to be placed neatly divided up into groups based on race and gender and appealed to that way via identity politics, instead of trying to solve issues that actually matter to people in 2024.

That men should be able to play women’s sports and you’re a bigot if you think otherwise.

That prisoners should be able to receive taxpayer funded gender transition surgeries [exit polls show this statement by Harris in particular and the Trump ad that highlighted it was very impactful with Latinos and African Americans]

That illegal immigrants are just innocent/helpful members of society that keep our costs down, rather than defining them as the criminals they are.

That young people’s votes can be bought by trying to forgive their student loans, never mind the fact that this completely ignores and pisses off the working class who didn’t go to college and is struggling more than people who have college degrees.

That women should lie to their husbands about who they plan to vote for.

Then why do you continually comment about his prosecution being solely motivated by partisan feelings?

Furthermore, should partisan motivations even matter if someone did actually break the law? Do we want a society where you can only be prosecuted if those seeking the conviction are of your own political party?

For me, if Biden or Harris or Obama or any other Democrat breaks the law, I want them prosecuted and I'm perfectly happy with that prosecution coming from someone who vehemently hates them for partisan reasons. I don't even care if they are only being prosecuted because of the partisan motivations. If they're guilty, they're guilty.

As someone who lived through a business partner defrauding the federal goverment of millions of dollars and suffering the fallout of that shit, I have ZERO sympathy for people who flaunt the law. He was a very close friend and I sincerely would not care at this point if he got colorectal cancer and spent the last days of his life in absolute agony. As far as I'm concerned, he deserves it.

Fair enough. I believe that Trump was only prosecuted because he upsets the political machine like no other person in modern history. Not because he committed serious crimes.

Honest question for you. Since you believe someone who is guilty of a crime should be prosecuted no matter what. How do you feel about the tens of millions of illegal immigrants that broke the law entering our country? Does this put you on the side of being okay with mass deportation since they all broke the law?

"Here is my critique of the Democratic campaign that is not based at all on anything the campaign said or did and is instead based on every Trump attack ad. and bad faith republican talking point."

Political ads work, man. Exhibit A.

Also very "mask off" statement there about undocumented immigrants. The vast majority of undocumented immigrants are, indeed, helpful and productive members of society. But you see every one of them as criminals to be punished. I suppose you also believe Trump's claim that they were emptying out African prisons and South American insane asylums into our country?

Sure, go get them. But I also advocate for prosecuting those who hire them. You also have to keep in mind that those seeking asylum entered the country legally.
