04.04.2025 16:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Your statement that she'd be better than Trump is exactly why the Dems lost. We're not talking about who would be better, we're talking about who would appeal to enough of BOTH sides to beat him. The whole "run to the extremes" primary races are what's killing moderate governance.

04.04.2025 15:44 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0There were 4 state governors mentioned pretty highly. IL, CA, PA, KY. Pritzker in IL had the money for sure (not a fan myself as he's wrecked our budget). Andy Bershear in KY could have easily taken away Republican votes from Trump and you KNOW all the Dems would vote for him.
04.04.2025 15:44 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0WHAT experience!? What staff? KH had no executive experience. Being a Senator for 4 years doesn't give you the ability to run the executive. And don't tell me that being VP gave her that. The VP has little to do but what the President tells them.
04.04.2025 15:44 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0But would she have been better than many of the other qualified candidates? Especially when those other candidates had a much better chance of beating Trump. A "great candidate" who doesn't get elected is pretty useless.
04.04.2025 15:19 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0How about the Democrats who put forward a nobody candidate against a clear threat to society because she checked so many minority boxes? You're given the opportunity to hand pick a candidate to defeat a known quantity and you come up with THIS?
04.04.2025 15:03 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Government power is granted by the peopleβexplicitly or implicitly.
But once given, it is rarely given back.
If you think Trump should make major changes with an executive order, remember that same authority will be given to a Democrat one day.
If you want the government to fund your favorite issue, remember: that support can be used as leverage, threatened or withdrawn if you oppose other policies.
The office of the president will transition from party to party. But powers, once granted, are rarely returned, regardless of who sits in the chair. Government programs may bring help, but they also bring influence. And influence is easy to abuse without changing a single law.
04.04.2025 14:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0People think federal power shows up in uniforms or IRS audits. But Trumpβs most effective weapon has been simpler: the threat to withhold money. WE have made this possible by letting government embed itself in so many areas of our lives.

But he's managed to cause confusion and chaos in people's lives in a short amount of time. His power comes from the influence we've given the Federal government in our lives.

ok, I'm not trying to support this loser, but lets stop sharing this altered picture of him. The unedited version is bad enough to begin with and it cheapens your attack. www.reuters.com/article/fact...
28.03.2025 17:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0You can think that all you want, but that is NOT how it works. You pay a certain amount out of every paycheck and then you get money back based on a formula that can be changed at any time by whomever is currently in power. THAT is the reality.

Speak up for ideas you believe in and be ready to explain and defend those ideas; not through personal attacks, but by discussing the merits of the ideas themselves.

I believe he's done this to benefit himself more America and the average person, but I won't tell you what to believe, how you should vote, or what policies to support. It's YOUR choice.
25.03.2025 12:47 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0If there's one thing Trump has done exceedingly well, it's to stoke and exploit fear.
Fear that we are losing our way of life.
Fear that others are taking our jobs.
Fear that someone is taking advantage of us.
Fear of crime. Fear of war. Fear of loss.
I have to accept that many people I know saw his methods and supported them. Others liked his policies and were willing to overlook the methods. And others weren't paying close enough attention and just voted for the party they were comfortable with.
