I wonder if the average American has even the slightest clue that the reason there hasn't been more help so far is 100% on Pelosi. Maybe the 5 people who watch CNN and saw Jake Tapper and Wolf Blitzer call her a cunt... But I'm sure their cognitive dissonance has washed that away already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this whole "ban the electoral college" thing really does get traction, it has to happen in parallel with a "disband the two parties" effort. The parties should be forcefully broken up and their assets pooled to be evenly distributed (over time) to new parties. SuperPACs should be banned, as should individual contributions in excess of $50. If we're going that route with the EC, we need to be more of a parliamentary system. Otherwise it's just the will of an oppressive majority, which is why the Dems want it so bad. Edited November 14, 2020 by Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So essentially we get make a first, second, third, etc. choice for President as well as other elected offices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooke Baldwin had Kristin Gillibrand on yesterday and asked about the relief bill and of course she blamed McConnell but Baldwin was having none of it...she called Pelosi out. It was refreshing to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a real head scratcher how both these lunatics not only get into power, but are worshipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In time we’ll probably see states becoming more purple. That seems to be what the very close vote counts are indicative of. So this thing has the potential to sort itself out. I do think the campaign issue is totally out of hand. Perhaps besides what you suggested for finance reform is to limit all political campaigns to 3-4 months. Of course with the internet, that will be very difficult to enforce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
