  • AOC Asked People Who Voted For Both Her And Trump To Explain Why—And Their Answers Are Eye-Opening

  • So she attempted to make her campaign more palatable to the never trump wing of republicans by accepting that she wouldn't have the political capital to do medicare for all? No politician in this country is getting medicare for all in the near future (no votes + supreme court will take down). No politician is banning fracking (they could but it would go to supreme court and be shut down). Border is one of those areas I'll agree with, there's more room to spare on that topic.

  • I think it's clear they are sensationalizing it due to the unique nature of the energy used, which is external potential energy that needed to get down the hill whether it's a gas or electric truck.

  • But nothing you said there was actually specific or precise. Just a vibe, and a vibe held by...well, all politicians. So I'm asking the same question as OP...what precisely is different about her vs other politicians that makes her phony to you?

    To provide a concrete example of what im looking for I'd say: "over half the US population agrees so it's really not my problem it's hers, and if you choose to defend her, yours" literally shouts insecurities. I don't know if that's real, but if I were asked what's my vibe check on what you've said so far, that's it. So what I'm looking for is a similar example or set of examples from Harris which demonstrates the vibe you experience.

  • Eh, it's always been a convenient myth for the republican party that Americans genuinely seem to believe they are better on "macro" even though it's always been probably the reverse (that democrat politicians have to clean up the mess that lower taxes and deregulation generate). For at least 40 years. In some states the reverse is true, like mass/NJ/ny voting blue pres while having a pretty regular flip flop in the governor's seat and then solidly blue house/senate.

    Similarly Dems always have a worse than average spin on wars, the comment being "republicans want a massive military that does nothing, Dems want a tiny military that goes everywhere" when in reality our foreign policy doesn't really change (except Biden actually pulled out of Afghanistan).

  • Why are you trying to cancel Christmas to begin with you monster? The fake celebration of Jesus' mom lying about adultery to avoid getting stoned, overridden by capitalism, is our new christian state's most important holiday.
