@texaslawhopefully: when I have some time i will read, thanks fren. Regardless of whichever of the two [T or H] are in the WH, I truly believe expectations will be looked back on as over worried.

@llama: I don't know man, maybe I've been reading way too much news but I'm worried in a way I wasn't with Biden, or would've been with Harris

@texaslawhopefully: looking back, the Rs were freaking out saying Biden was going to end the country, and the Ds were freaking out during DJTs 1st term. Neither did exceptionally bad or good, IMHO. At the end of the day, the rest of the GOV (Judaical and Congress) really put a damper on grandiose executive plans. Finally, we all know Donnie is a talker: he anchors (ie tarrifs), he talks shit, he says he will do X and never does. news eats that shit up, but I think most will not ever come to pass

I really think it's a lot of political theater right now. I think a huge percentage of these EO's are just going to be shot down.

the news sells fear. that is their product (hence why u see COPD, heart meds, stress/ antidepressants adverts during primtime). We know trump has a big mouth, and when he opens it, he spews nonsense which gets funneled into ur ears- ratings skyrocket.

not COPD. my bad ^

dem messaging is lightyears behind MAGA messaging, part of this can be blamed on foreign governments boosting the MAGA party to destabilize the country, but the democrat old guard is so far behind MAGA strategy

llama

@Dkk: exactly.

dems need to give way to modern leftists like AOC and bernie

llama

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: AOC is my crushhhh

It's amazing cus in 2008/2012 people were even wondering if the Republican party was still going to be a thing and then yeah, MAGA just took over.

but unfortunately the left purity tests all of its members to death, for the left their candidates have to be perfect, for the right their candidates are basically forgiven for anything. it makes it a hard sell for upcoming talent to attach to the left wing when they will cancel their politicians for any perceivable social slight

texaslawhopefully

18:59

Yeah, unfortunately that happened in part with Harris and the far-Left

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: see with takes like that, it is no wonder how you are called Knowledgeable Wasp

ie a lot of the left didnt vote for harris because they thought biden was too soft on israel for the I/P situation. but now they have trump who will literally hand netanyahu bombs to genocide palestinians

texaslawhopefully

19:01

And even on that issue, though, I thought Biden was very moderate, whereas the far-Left just had unrealistic expectations of where he was going to end up

KnowledgeableRitzyWasp

19:03

yeah absolutely, and our modern left doesn't appreciate that if they eventually want their policies, their best bet is incremental progress, not a perceived revolution

So if you are 19, Trump won his first election when you were like 11. What were you doing at 11?

Dkk

19:03

This is just interesting for me to think about.

@texaslawhopefully: actually that was a huge counter biden movement (and harris) re they were held hostage by party politics and any words otherwise were lies that would be walked back, like border action

The radical left views open borders as a human right

Okay, man so huh. I barely remember bush as a kid. I remember my parents complaining about him and telling me why they did not vote for him. I technically had bill clinton too but I would have been 3.
