There's only one answer. The Democrats think demographics are destiny, that minorities will be theirs forever. We must prove them wrong.
We must get African Americans and Latinos on our side. We're already making inroads but we need to do better. Much better.
If the Democrats no longer own the black and brown vote they are done. DONE. Otherwise, we are done. It's just that simple.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA <wheeeeeeeeeeze> HAHAHAHAHHA
Woke idiots are the biggest racists of all. I say we refer to them simply as "racists." If asked to explain, just say "If you think race is the most important thing about a person, you're a racist."
Let's fight back against Leftist newspeak.
I honestly don't see anything wrong with presidential campaigns reaching out to kids as a general matter.
But it's Biden. He's creepy. So naturally this skeeves me out.
It's fine to argue about the cost/benefits of shutdowns. I'm on your side. But the 20k figure you cite is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what the CDC report says. It's easy to dismiss your broader, more important point, if you rely on this misunderstanding to make it.
Look at my post history. I'm not a shill, I'm trying to help. This isn't helping.
Please stop repeating this, this is not correct and makes us look bad.
The report said 94% had comorbidities, but the list includes things like pneumonia, which can be caused by covid, and obesity.
It's probably the case that some of that 94% would have died even without covid, but it's incorrect to assume that all or even most of them would have.
Seriously, fuck this guy.
God bless this kid. The government that the left tells us we should rely on to protect us sat on their hands and let the mob destroy his community with impunity. Never has the need for the Second Amendment been made so clear. Their desperate attempts to spin this, to get anything to stick to this kid, are so obviously, so flagrantly dishonest, it's like red pills are raining from the sky.
Kyle is a fucking American hero.
Let's find this guy and set up a fund for him. We'll mint a Republican for life.
Medic! We need a medic here!
I've spent pretty much the entire day defending him from people who are convinced he just rolled up and murdered three people in cold blood. We need to draw a line in the sand on this one. Don't let their bullshit go unanswered.
White privilege is being charged with first-degree murder for defending yourself against armed felons attacking you with deadly weapons.
I understand the rage at King Mouse and the desire to dismiss them forever. It would be no less than they deserve. But if they take actual concrete action against the SJW cancer, I'm willing to give them another chance. The prospect of having at least one media giant, if not entirely on our side, at least not actively pissing in our faces, is too good to ignore.
libertarians are on a spectrum just like democrats and republicans. There are some wacked-out crazies that are basically the David Duke / AOC of the movement, who ride the fence with straight-up anarchism.
As a person with significant libertarian leanings, I largely agree. Early America is exactly the model I'd like to bring back, but I've come to recognize that it's not practical as things presently sit. Thus I've shifted to being a straight-up conservative.
The one major vestige I've held onto is a deep suspicion for overseas adventurism, but in my mind, Trump strikes the perfect balance, here. Fucking America first, no more paying the bill for the entire world's defense, no new wars, but he kicked the shit out of ISIS. Seriously, he got it exactly right.
Politics is downstream from culture. Maybe if we fix American culture to where we have a sense of shared identity as countrymen (the Left's worst nightmare), we can see about revisiting my libertarian dreams. But that's likely to be a multi-generational project.
I volunteered for Ron Paul both times, and voted for Gary Johnson in 2016 (yeah yeah, he was a major disappointment, but I'm in California, it's not like Trump was going to win, here).
You're goddamn right i'm voting for Trump in 2020. There may be something to this.
Yep, it's frustrating when a bigger government that doesn't share your values rolls in and forces policies you don't like on you, isn't it?
Sounds great, but you'll have to replace it with something. Raise taxes elsewhere, or cut services. What's your proposal?
Took me until later in life than I'd have preferred to find the right mother for my kids, but here I am at 47 with 3 beautiful daughters, oldest is age 6. If you're discouraged, don't give up!
I know you're just cracking jokes, but just remember: These are children, and children don't choose to be born in California.
Scott's whole point is that none of these should have been national news. And if you agree with that, then it's a matter of consistency that this one kid shouldn't be, either.
I'm not saying I agree with him, I'm conflicted on the matter. But people piling on him for this are misunderstanding what he's saying.
This is dumb. First, she is a natural born citizen. The law is crystal clear on this point. Second, the natural born citizen rule is stupid and should be abolished. There's no good reason at all why a kid who is adopted from overseas shouldn't be able to run for president when he/she grows up. Just require that a person have been a citizen for 30 years.
Please don't turn this into a thing. We've got far better objections to her than this.
Giving puberty blockers to children is a Mengele-tier abomination. Ever doctor and every parent that engages is this shit should be thrown in prison for performing medical experimentation on children.
There is only one way to save Texas. The GOP has to find a way to bring Latinos into the fold.
Y'all complain about the influx of Californians (not without reason), but California was a reliable red state up until the '90s. It was the flood of immigration that turned it blue, and Texas is headed for the exact same result. And if that happens, that will be the end of this country.
There's a large contingent in the Latino community of hard-working, family focused, God fearing, small business owners. There's another large contingent who have fled from socialist hellscapes. We must get these people on our side. It's the only way to save Texas, and America.
Can I get a source for this? I have some red pills to dispense.
