Elections DNC today in Chicago

[filthybliss]

Michigan has nearly 250k Muslims and a majority of them vote, and would take issue with a guy who volunteered for the IDF

Ditto this. It’s also a very popular thing in college campuses here too, tons of encampments everywhere.

 

[Deorum]

He was insanely hated by the right while he was in office. And he's kind of a sleaze and ridiculously overrated as a president.

Shots Fired, @BFoe.

The spectrum is intact. You hate fun, or atleast politically motivated irony.

Christians are not instructed to lie and deceive or behead people.

Shots Fired, @BFoe.

You’re not going to let him say that, are you?!

Clinton did not balance the budget, nor is that always the right move (though it was at the time). But more than that: What did Jeffrey Jones do?

Jeffrey Jones was caught with a bunch of child porn, and actively tried to get a 14 year old boy (undercover agent) to sleep with him.

Ruined all of my favorite 80s/early 90s movies like Ferris Beuler, Beetlejuice, Mom and Dad Save the World, Stay Tuned, etc

Plus Deadwood. They hired him knowing he was a predator, and put him in scenes with children.

“We back the badge—just not the ones protecting the Capitol.”
“We love law and order—just not when Trump is convicted of felonies.”

That talking point is so annoying. Biden Admin literally dumped more money into police departments…

I wasn't ever much of a fan of Oprah but she knows how to command an audience.

I was almost going to reply seriously. All I can say is "Oh, you!"

Tbh, Jesus was a cool dude. The majority of his followers? Eh.

Bernie gave a great interview about this on Theo Von's podcast



My only issue with his health care for all argument is that he continously compares the US to Canada, Sweden, Denmark, etc. And the single biggest difference is population. A nation of 30 million with the right system may be able to do it, but 300+ million adds a ton of nuance and variables. It's not comparable.

We can do it, but it won't be like Sweden.

I meant to watch that when it was posted earlier so thanks for the repost.
I have heard that argument but Vermont tried to do it and their problem was that there wasn’t enough people to support it

I don’t believe that the richest nation in the world, where health insurance companies are making close to a billion dollars in profit a week, can’t do it because of the population.

She's had training lol

Shots Fired, @BFoe.

He was president during an incredibly easy time to be president. He did OK, but I think it's ludicrous to compare him to Obama or Biden (just limiting it to recent Democratic presidents). I think a lot of people really don't understand deficits, and that's part of the reason for him being so overrated. Plus, when people are off the stage, they don't get much hate from the other side, which allows their rep to rise.

 

[Deorum]

You’re not going to let him say that, are you?!

Aye he's your boy, and I'm in no position to argue with Jack over Clinton, lol. I was a carefree little boy in the '90s, you were already coming of age during his first term.

 

[emefer]

Oprah should give a shout out to Phil Donahue

 

[fingercuffs]

She's had training lol

She also looks flippin gorgeous. But she's hitting the racism card home brilliantly.
Edit: me using the word "card" wasn't the intention. She's speaking complete truth and this is what we need for independents and undecideds to wake up.

We can, but it'll take an entire revamping of the system. We'd have to gut insurance and pharmaceutical industries. It'd be a chaotic bloodbath until we get it right.

I hope that she goes all in on her gimmick, and gifts all attendees of the DNC...A New Car!!!!!.

I was in middle school when he was elected, but I can read.

We had some hate for Bill earlier. You were the Beetlejuice I was talking about, because you don't think he's a sex fiend.

My nuance is knowing him and the RNC balanced the budget (you say he didn't, yet we had a surplus in budget for the only time in 2000) while knowing he was a creep.

Still, one of the greatest orators of all time. That's why I love Obama so much. Family guy, never cheated, and still speaks better than Clinton in his best days.
