Technically, Chuck voted to keep the government shut down. According to some people other than Chuck he was in constant contact with the group who crossed the aisle for nothing in return, but he didn’t vote with them.

A few years ago the USA banned buying a cargo space for use as a ferry, that would have been super cheap and made moving my electronics and tools a lot easier.

I’m kind of glad I didn’t plan that trip to Germany, now. Been considering relocating permanently, but I need to go and look around first. Cheapest flights are around late Oct to November.

It’s technically not a coup since the US Citizens voted them into power in order to do this.

Have you ever had to glance at millions of papers?

I predict a lot of people are going to just not file taxes, and I expect the IRS won’t have the resources to do anything about it.

Who are you to dictate what I desire?

It literally happened in the exact example I gave. Only 35 seats total are up for reelection in the house but I was being clear about what I wanted.

TBH I don’t care about a 2018 lead, I want to see the 1975-1979 lead where the Democrats gain supermajority. I want to see 1894 type of numbers where the overreaching party who implemented tariffs see a 100+ seat loss.

I want every single Republican out of a job.

The problem with 2016 was that the polls accurately predicted who would win the popular vote, because that’s what they measure. The 270toWin poll based outcome showed Trump’s chance of victory LINK HERE, and so did 538 which is no longer available as it was purchased by ABC News and taken offline.

Trump’s loss in 2020 and victory again in 2024 were also predicted by both aggregate polls and online betting platforms.

The problem with poll inaccuracy is solved by two methods: increased sample size and giving priority based on perceived bias (gaining back points for having clear and accurate data available to the public).

Imagine if it continues to degrade to the point that Kristi Noem gets put in charge of more branches of armed forces.

Maybe he was trying to nazi dogwhistle, would not surprise me if he plagiarised an SS.

Right now I’m more interested in 2026. We need to be out there volunteering and promoting the DNC to hold seats and remove the GOP.

WAR WAS HERE WHEN REPUBLICANS WERE PUTTING PEOPLE IN CAGES, SETTING BARBWIRE IN THE RIVERS, BURNING PROGRESSIVE BALLOT BOXES, FREEZING MEDICAID FUNDING.

Let’s be 100% honest, Biden’s health probably hasn’t improved since he lost to the fascist oligarch, he probably can’t handle daily cardio of that extent.

Plus, it’s not safe for him with so many protests and gestapo roaming DC.

Primary results are decided by number of votes.

Candidates you liked were invited to participate in the primary by the party heads.

Unfortunately a lot of Americans are.

GOOD.

EDIT: Maybe next time they’ll actually go out and vote.

You’re missing the point. If we don’t back the imperfection in this FPTP system and then pass meaningful reforms the which we haven’t had enough senators to do in over 10 years, we’re going to end up in a racist theocratic dictatorship which will make even something as horrible as China or Russia blush. The world will devolve into war which will leave hundreds of millions in perpetual suffering. The rich elite are the only people benefiting from this downfall.

People want something better than Democrats? Then we’re all going to fucking die.
