I would say Texas is pretty nice here. I do think you got the right idea there though @impartialLion and maybe people can apply that to the broader context of why when someone just starts mischaracterizing me as a racist, homophobic, fatphobic, ableist for multiple days, I might just give up and start cussing at em lol. I mean, if someone did that to me in a bar I would get violent and I have been violent in the past with people. Being in bar fights is like an awesome experience and everyone should do it at least once.

@texaslawhopefully: Yeah, I mean it could happen to the senate and house like it did to Obama but if he keeps his overall approval rating up, even if someone does not like individual policies it's compromise: https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trumps-approval-ratings-break-records-democrats-back-him-2018900

@Dkk: Fair. My guess is (if the DNC is smart) dems change there messaging to be more appealing to moderates, they start winning and they hopefully that encourages republicans to move back to the center.

Dkk

18:47

Yeah, exactly.

@llama: This was the best explanation that I read for it: https://samharris.substack.com/p/the-reckoning

llama

@GapingVariousTurkey: same bro. im not worried cause yolo, but i think an honest talk with each applicable school will allow them to give leeway

texaslawhopefully

But, yeah, I think many people were shocked

@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

llama

18:53

@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.

llama

18:56

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

18:58

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: AOC is my crushhhh

Dkk

18:59

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
