The socialists are ultimately just ideological dipshits who don't understand reality. Which is why calling the establishment corporate cronies socialists is a tactic to help the establishment.

Ultimately we do need a healthy right-left balance not one party rule, thats not good. If the government was Trump types on the right & Tulsi types on the left, we'd all be happy because shes not TDS or out for blood.

You mean the guy who helped exposed the Snowden revelations that the Brennan/Clapper/Comey/NSA cartel are a bunch of sociopathic maniacs wants to silence people.

BS! Greenwald is on the side of truth. He's not an activist, if anything he's a left-libertarian, like Tulsi Gabbard. They're the opposite of the Ron Paul's, they just want the govt to do things like make sure company's install seat belts (one of Ralph Nader's big wins back in the day). They're not on some quest for one party power.

The failure of the election litigation was not getting the Taibbi/Greenwald types on board. They stuck their necks out on Russiagate/Ukrainegate as bullshit but couldn't on this one. This is where the Q stuff destroyed the Trump movement, its just too much chaos to pay attention to reality for most (along with myself).

Hawley is understanding what it means to be a populist, plus is reaching out to the populist lefties. We need to align anti-establishment interests or were all screwed.

The Dems need an enemy in order to be relevant. If they no longer feel like a victim and have all this power, they won’t have a clue what to do. They’re desperately trying to paint McConnell now as the obstacle to their utopia, but it’s a charade because they fear their base too and need an enemy. This is the game. The future is bringing the populist left & populist right together, or else all of us are just under the thumb of the establishment.

It’s a tough country to reform. Israeli politics is a bunch of fragmented interest groups that have to build fragile coalitions to operate a govt. Bibi plays this game masterfully, but he’s worn out his welcome.

The next PM will be Naftali Bennett.

How about a memorial to the 11,000 people Cuomo deliberately killed during Covid.

Trump is Harry Truman 2.0, I’ve always thought this. So many similiarities.

Thing is, as a Millennial, older Pedes have to understand the worldview. It’s not just about wanting free stuff, it’s about people not having a chance in this feudalistic system Obama helped create.

The right fucked up calling Obama a socialist all those years, maybe that works on Boomers but Millennials don’t care about the label of socialist. Many don’t understand that more govt alone actually helps corporatists & status quo. Healthcare, housing & life in general even for a hard working individual in their early 30s is just completely unafforable.

Trump has definitely improved things, but I sympathize with my friends who supported Bernie. Many really have had a shitty hand in life, and are totally hopeless. They hate Biden & corporate Dems the way the right hates RINOs. But the problem is ultimately Democrats want feudalism, not socialism. Calling the left’s policies socialist doesn’t translate. Feudalism is an easier argument to make.

Or just don’t let the state be the one who has the power to define your marriage.

Just put a house in two people’s names, that’s a more realistic way to co-mingle finances & provide one another more personal stake in a relationship. Yeah you don’t get the tax advantages but you can still file as Head of a Household.

Arresting Hillary will be cheered by 60% of America. It will be championed all around the country. Even the far-left will be happy.

Trump's entire strategy is to cut through the Democratic coalition.

That's why the minority outreach is having such positive returns, a +5% gain with Black voters in 2020 from 2016 is huge, combine it with +8% with Hispanics, game over.

Shave off at the margins, but overall the Republican reachout to Dem base like this will reverberate for decades. If the Black vote eventually gets split 75-25 or 80-20 in another cycle or two, the racism racket is done. The Dem cartel is defeated. The whole reason they do this nonsense is to deflect issues. Can't run the racism gambit if suddenly GOP has a significant block of loyal Black voters.

If we want any way out of the paradigm of complete insanity relatively peacefully, it relies on the understanding we need reform inside both parties.

Trump has proven that all your enemies will just ally with the Democrats ultimately. Trump has done remarkable given how much he's been up against, but how much easier would his job be if there were more Tulsi's fighting on the Dem side simultaneously?

Sometimes, the priorities around here get skewed. We shouldn't want to be aiming for a one party goal as the measurement of Trump's success, both parties being rid of their geriatric crony kleptocrat sociopaths should be the goal. Human beings ultimately are flawed creatures, and we'd want some lefty libertarian types like Tulsi around 40-50 years from now when the next globalist neocon cartel tries to seize power pretending to be Republicans.

Lol, why would anyone choose to be smeared & slandered endlessly by the corporate media, with just outright lies. Tulsi is an anti-globalist, she's a lefty sure, I don't agree with her on much, but I've not yet seen evidence shes a crook. I agree most Democrats are actors, many Republicans are too. The few who aren't on either side stand out.

She's more of a left libertarian. In the long-run, we want a Democratic party ruled by Tulsi's. She's a lot more honest than her party is, I think she genuinely has an interest in doing whats right for America. She's not a corporatist crook kleptocrat feeding off the party. Those leeches are in both parties, and they are the problem. The Pelosi's, Schumers & Romney's are all power hungry sociopaths ultimately.

We want a healthy 2 party system. One party rule is never good. The most ideal state of the American system would have 2 parties functioning the right way to balance them out so that we don't end up with the current criminal cartel that's ruled over DC forever.

Nah, let Biden disappear in history as a perennial loser. Don't waste the political capital arresting him, Trump's got to go at heart & soul of the beast: Obama, Bill & Hillary.

I don’t think the queen is pushing for Biden, I think in this global battle between globalism vs nationalism, she is obviously for British nationalism. The EU & globalism effectively challenges & threatens the Royal Family’s relevancy.

She knows her family includes many fuck ups, Andrew & Harry aren’t the first Royals to turn on the family. Her uncle King Edward was a Nazi sympathizer, he openly met with Hitler in 1939.

The queen is I think trying to restore order in her household & country before she kicks the bucket. Restore a conservative, stable order which was upended decades ago. Driving Harry out completely helps achieve that.

Yes exactly. The right needs to embrace the truth that people do need to have a stake in society, ultimately it’s on the individual but we do need to always strive to be civically minded. The rioting obviously is being politicized & pushed by media / politicians, but the sad truth is they’re pawns. We fight back by engaging with our ideological opponents.

But in the big picture, too many people in America don’t have a future. Yes it’s on them, but it’s on us to also show them the light, and the path to go down.

Here’s what Trump should do if Biden doesn’t debate.

Find a Joe Biden impersonator & debate him. Make the guy impersonate an even more demented version. Say since Biden won’t debate, he found this guy instead.

I haven't, although part of why I like Driggs is because you get Jackson Hole views & access to skiing / fishing at far more affordable prices.

Which areas of Wyoming do you like?
