That change wasn't created by him. Remember that. It was the result of something else.

He wanted more government, more regulation. He got it.

It's almost like trump figured out how polls work. I think he just inadvertently made the argument that the ABC polls was accurate.

Yes... and the Real Clear Politics Average (41.8%) is closer to the ABC poll (38%) than it is to Rasmussen (47%).

So evidently David Hogg is crowdfunding a billboard rental in Texas that will display some of Trump's 2016 tweets about Cruz. He's got some good source material to choose from.

Lol, the same David Hogg that graduated high school 2015 in Cali and was in high school during the Parkland school shooting? Was he in that cave with all those Thai soccer players too? Maybe he survived the Malaysian flight too. Hell, I bet he’s Brian Williams illegitimate son.

Gotta admit, that's a fair question

I've never seen so many butthurt MAGA twats getting their tighty whiteys twisted over a 17 year old boy. You'd think you were all Kevin Spacey clones.

Cool, but he didn't call Cruz's dad a murderer, and he didn't publicly insult his wife's looks. He posted a picture of her, and insinuated that Cruz's dad might be in a picture with Oswald on the streets of New Orleans in the early 60's.

Ok, let's replace the murderer claim with this one.

Keep the Trump talk out of this thread please. It is off topic, and we already have threads on the subjects you all want to brow beat. This is usually one of the few threads that actually talks about real issues, lets keep it that way pleas.e

Boston city councilor Ayanna Pressley unseated 10-term U.S. Rep. Michael Capuano in a Democratic primary Tuesday in the latest shakeup of the House Democratic caucus by a far-left challenger.

Pressley, who is running unopposed in November, is set to become the first African-American woman elected to Congress from the Commonwealth.

You should quit calling them antifa. They are fascists regardless of what their name says.

I'm an old Tennessee guy and just joined the forum. I didn't know VolNation had a political section. This orta be good.

I know they are but that is the name of their violent group so I want everyone to know thats the base of their party

Base of the party? lol
I still don't really even know what antifa is and I've certainly never met a single person that has anything to do with it.
Antifa forms the base of the dem party about 1/10 as much as white supremacists form the base of the rep party....however much you deem that to be.

We are a solid 50%. David Duke for the win.
