2020 Primaries

[tvolsfan]

I know this won’t be popular with you all on the far left, but as a man I’m into women

For a straight man, you do spend a lot of time sucking off Donald Trump.

 

[OHvol40]

Oh my!

Across a continent, you say? The “continent” includes more than the United States. Canada, the second largest country by land area, is a part of this continent, as are Mexico, Central America and numerous Caribbean island nations.

It a was a figurative statement, not literal.

Sure. More detailed version below:

One cold morning next January after a long pathetic cry and tweet on the toilet, Donny will slowly slather on his women's make up, bobby pin his gold comb over down for the last time as president, squeeze into his cheap Chinese Trump-brand suit, clip on his over-sized clown tie, put on his shoes with the four inch lifts and waddle downstairs.

Then, too disconsolate to speak to the press, he will keep on waddling across the lawn of the White House, climb onto Marine Force 1 laboring for breath from the effort and leave the White House never to return. Melania will soon after divorce him, Fox and Friends will no longer take his call, Twitter will finally block his account and he will generally be considered a pariah in American culture and the worst president in modern history. The damage he has caused to America's prestige will never be fully repaired.

Geez drama much ? We’ve lived through much worse . I think we will be ok regardless of any perception of the lost culture or the prestige. Lol

Trump whines and throws tantrums like a silver spoon fed douche canoe. He's weak and thin skinned.

President Trump was the front runner since he announced, he was always in the middle of the candidates and took punches from everyone and was always cool as a cucumber. On the other hand you have Joe Biden who loses it when a voters questions him on guns and Biden responds by cussing him and telling him he doesn't work for him

You radical leftists have some weird fantasies

How many other elections held in this country are for the sole purpose of being the head of state? You know, the one person that is the face of the nation. The one who can approve or veto the things that have a direct bearing on all the states.

That’s why it’s done differently than every other election. The others are state specific elections. Nobody in NY cares who Santa Clara County CA elects as a city councilman.

The position being voted on is irrelevant when debating fairness and equality for voters.

Is Trump asking attendees at his rallies to rough people up acting as cool as a cucumber? Or constantly bullying everyone in a blind rage on Twitter to soothe his fragile ego?

The voters can always spread out , stop packing up like cattle in urban cities . We are all free to move around to these less populated states and fix the problem that way . There ...fixed your problem and you didn’t even have to go through with that pesky amendment thingy.

That last paragraph

From the same article.

Notwithstanding the founders’ efforts, the Electoral College system almost never functioned as they intended, but, as with so many constitutional provisions, the document prescribed only the system’s basic elements,

We will be OK. I don't think we really deserved the role as the sole super power and that was a dangerous dynamic for the US as well. In some ways it is great that Trump confirmed how gullible a huge part of the American electorate is and how quick they are to embrace an authoritarian stooge. Other countries now realize we are an unreliable partner and many Americans have been shaken from their complacency.

So, Thanks O'Donald!

People shouldn’t have to move to make sure their votes count the same as the next Americans’. Do you all hear yourself when you argue these points or are you just on auto pilot?

You are having a tough time since your boy(?) dropped out, I get it but try to keep up I'm talking about debates. And as I have always said Trump is a counter puncher, he doesn't start fights but when someone from the loony left comes at him yes he fights back and it's good to finally see a R fighting the scum on the left.

I would argue that was exactly was our FFs had in mind , setting up basic elements / rules that would ensure fairness instead of polical manipulation. They were smart enough to also include a process that we could change those basic elements to suite us whenever we liked , just follow the basic rules/ elements of amendment and we are good to go .

People shouldn’t have to give up what’s already there because it suites the needs of some but not enough to change it . Do you hear yourself trying to argue how not fair the constitution is , but can’t do anything about it because you cant seem to follow the process to change it ?

I already explained that. The majority of the states contain the minority of the population. Until people are willing to give up a little power for what is right, we are stuck. Let's just hope people eventually evolve.

You do realize that qualifying for the term super power has nothing to do with prestige or shifting cultural norms right ? These other countries have been using us forever because of our military and resources . Americans and other countries need to be shaken every once in a while , it builds character , history proves this out .

AR-14 is a real weapon but I still think he misspoke on that, and people in the RNC think this makes Biden look good, not bad.
And if Bernie had done this his supporters would be popping champagne.

Well yeah it makes Biden look like a senile old man.

Subjective as usual . I can just as easily say until people are willing to understand why they put it in there to start with and that it’s needed , some will always cry about it being unfair . Until then we are doing great with the ones that do understand . Let’s just hope others evolve and retain some knowledge .

No one is ever going to accept that Obama and Trump were equal counter balances.

True. Trump isn't nearly the racist that Obama was. Trump isn't as bad as Obama without a lectern and a teleprompter, but I'll admit that often Trump would come off better with somebody else's words and Obama style speaking aids ... as long as he didn't try to preach Obama style. Trump is a bit of a novice when it comes to getting his WH herd headed in the same direction, but then he wasn't a community organizer, so he probably never got the party line thing down that well, or that you never give potential dissenters a trial run. Libs always get the totalitarian iron glove thing down early, and pretend to be really nice guys while they stab you in the back. Those are just a couple of differences that come to mind, but at this point, I'll take Trump easily over Obama.

I’ve explained multiple times why it’s impossible to change.

The larger picture is that a society where the majority is blatantly overruled by the minority is doomed to collapse eventually... but keep advocating for it.

I can't wait. Karma is a b*tch. It has been a blast on Reddit on r/neoliberal today.

I didn't realize that sub existed, good stuff.

Smaller states do have a greater influence based on per capita.
They have less influence than if population was not considered at all.

If that disturbs you, move to a less populous state and have a bigger voice. That's one of the wonders of the original setup. SC didn't have to be like NY, GA didn't have to be like MA, etc; then we had the plague of federalists who screwed it up for everybody.

You do realize that from gun control, to transgender BS, to almost every political view, liberals are truly in the minority right?
