Politics, B.T. , were always nothing more than a choreographed series of backroom negotiations, favors owed and paid, and calculated safe moves. Moving against the herd would get you trampled and outcast as a weak link in the never-ending chain of coordinated gridlock.
This is a new era. The left has broken ranks and their zealots are running berserk through their own guard. Cruz isn't daft or dumb. No one will ever again lead with the vigor of GEOTUS, but others will follow in his spirit. Safe bets don't exist anymore, and in time we will expunge the lame and craven remnants of the past.
I'm looking forward to the future fight.
Its time to move with purpose or fade into obsolescence.
The Lion holds promise.
Rule 3.
Express your grievances, fine. But watch your goddamn mouth.
That's really, really good. You been practicing in front of the mirror like when billybob prepped for slingblade?
Looks like it.
Heartbreaking. It's like they're fully convinced they wont have to write 2020 itself into the history books. They'll just burn every volume back to 1492 and replace it with a new iteration of the dark ages.
I'm in pain imagining explaining this all to my future grandkids.
When it comes to polls, the Real Clear Politics (RCP) average has Biden up 9 points nationally, and 4.4 points in battleground states. But different polls feed completely different narratives. The most recent poll from NBC/Wall Street Journal has Biden up 14 points, while Trump-bashing CNN has Biden up 16 points. Rasmussen, which had Trump narrowly in the lead three weeks ago, now has Biden up 12 points. Biden landslide? Not so clear.
Three other larger polls have the race as a toss-up. Zogby has Biden up by only 47% to 45% - two points. Investor’s Business Daily has Biden up by 2.7% - 48.6% to 45.9%. And the Democracy Institute - which forecast Trump’s 2016 upset and Brexit - has Trump up a point, 46% to 45%. All three results lay all within their respective margins of error. Democracy Institute shows Trump with a narrow but significant 4-point lead in battleground states Florida, Minnesota, and New Hampshire.
RCP excluded Zogby and Democracy Institute from their average, skewing it bigly toward Biden.
Yeah it needs to be reframed and retitled. Its court size PADDING.
I wish the right's leadership would realize that the majority of people are comfortable reading headlines and forgoing the opportunity to investigate details.
Simple, clear branding of ideas is necessary.
Kindof in the vein of POTUS' opponent nicknaming.
Thank you! That was my first reaction here.NODs are fucking pricey
Ha! Yeah she's gross.
Are you Canadian?
Yes, and I hate to view things like a politician, but if they put Cruz out front, dems would be forced to run a minority candidate to counter, and again focus their entire campaign on arguing identity politics.
This should force a division between indoctrinated blocks of black and spanish voters, while inevitably leading to more and more individuals pulling the plug on the progressive stack narrative.
Also, the Lion grew a mane. It's like Ted evolved these past few years.
Section 230 reform is the most important issue of our time.
The open forum is muzzled and reason itself is caged and led about in chains.
The keyholders must be cut down.
And they really think that regular Americans minding their own business are going to answer telephone polls truthfully if this is the kind of reaction a mild critique warrants?
They're definitely not. But he's got a point here. When's the last time you went to traffic court in a large township or small city?
They're literally moneymills. Hundreds of people waiting in line to accept a plea that will allow them to avoid license points, which coincidentally facilitates them making a direct payment to the local jurisdiction rather than the state coffers.
The DA doesn't care what happened, he doesn't want to hear your story, nor argue against it on behalf of the people. He just cares about the fastest way to separate you from your money and move on down the list.
"Parking ticket and $150 fine, no points with that, okay? NEXT!"
The system, in that sense, isn't serving to do much of anything in the interest of public safety. Its just an extra tax source.
(I'm wearing my blue line bracelet right now, but that isn't going to blind me from recognizing flaws where they're plainly visible)
But he self identified as Not Austrian. If it worked for him, then why not anybody?
Yeah I know that. Why does it look like they dont? Lol they look like seniors enjoying their first big unsupervised day on the internet
Anyway. I'll quit being a buzzkill.
Welcome to 2020 where winning never gets old and salty tears are always on tap!
Seriously confused if this is some kind of performance art I'm not getting or if these guys think you really just awoke from cryostasis.
Not hating on the love though.
Make Selective Service genderblind. See if they instigate avoidable conflict then.
I don't know, but now that charges have finally been filed, I'm left wondering why nobody ever indicted that trans-stripper-kid's parents.
We have a cultural sickness that's shielded by denial.
“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
Fake news.
A phob-I-phobe (not phobOphobe as you've cited here) is most certainly:
Any individual who knowingly engages in wrongthink, at which time it can be clearly and unequivocally assessed, without need of substantive argument, that said moral dissident is guilty of the highest crimes and transgressions derived from unmitigated and unabashed hatred of all things deemed good and acceptable by civilized society, coupled with a profound embrace of all things bad.
Synonyms: Trump Supporter et al.
Once such shame has been established and annointed, its simply a matter of brevity to affix the label of phobiphobe, rather than list every single one of the genders, races, creeds, religions and any other myriad protected classes said deplorable individual is summarily assumed to harbor hatred for.
Once this is accomplished, no exchange of free ideas need commence. The offender can in blind conscience be dehumanized and disposed of.
If it weren't for those pesky guns...

And half of them look to have earned themselves a healthy beat down before the irons were put on.
Its disgusting really, They're preying on unstable pawns to act as fodder to be launched at their political rivals, then bailing them out, arming them up and tossing them right back into the fray.
I mean, the hunchback was literally thrown away at birth, but idolized the Spartans and yet was cast aside and humiliated by Leonidas...
But still. They are the Hunchbacks of BLM
No worries. I've seen a couple of clips from it that others have posted here. I'll find it in full. Thanks!
"Why Leonidas' battle against Xerxes highlights America's obsession with championing Patriarchy and Trans-exclusionism - The Spartan Ideal was nothing more than white fragility personified."
