Voters don't swing from Democrat to Republican, They swing from Democrat to couch.

Yes, this is all true but the inclusion bad plans was to satisfy conservative Democrats who wanted more " market-based options"

But those plans are the most hated!

We should not have permitted them, and just offered more generous subsidies.

But Dems wanted to keep the bill "budget neutral"

Right now the current shutdown of the government is over whether or not we should

"bring original Obamacare back"

(With basically everyone agreeing we that we shouldn't)

And Republicans are out here like: what if original Obamacare but worse?!

And exactly 0 families going for the low monthly have the 9k.

It's the most sick trap post aca.

Huge mistake by dems to allow these plans and their extremely high deductibles to exist.

But dems were trying to keep the government spending totals down to pass the bill...

And it's such a profoundly stupid thing to say

" An affordable catastrophic plan"?

Such a thing does not exist!

It's the sort of thing. Someone who's never thought about it or your median voter would buy into..... But two SECONDS of thinking show how stupid it is

I didn't know this but this daily guy is an editor at the New York Times.

This is like a real life version of that fake quote that conservatives banned about 4 years

" I've never met a Nixon voter"

They imagined media saying to each other... A thing that never happened but that they claimed...

People want to imagine some ocean’s 11 stealing of the votes when really

The most damage shit Trump did was unleash his hordes on loyal poll workers so they wouldn’t show up but his toadies would.

Coups are old school, people.

When HRC said certain people were miserable and deplorable, those people and many of their friends got pissed off at HRC, before Comey and cheating Putin did their thing. As a reminder, this is miserable and deplorable in action. She told the truth.

Additionally, (not that this matters) but its totally at odds with their other message:

β€œWe don’t want β€˜able bodied young men’ SUCKING DOWN FREE HEALTH CAAAARRRREEE!!!!!”

Should the young get health insurance or are they welfare kings (who also don’t use the services)

β€œWhen it comes to dealing with women” is so WEIRD.

I appreciate the questions but what Cuomo did wasn’t sytruggle to β€œdeal with women”

It was targeted sexual harassment and assault!

β€œHave you learned to stop sexually assaulting others?” Is too direct?

A enclosure for a small lizard with fake plants. And the walls are painted and textured like rock. And there are lots of hiding places and warming lights. And it's a very cozy home for a lizard.

I have posted my lizard before.

But usually when she's in her window hammocks so I decided to show you what her enclosure looks like.

there's been a rather ingenius, insidious, deliberate effort via propaganda and social messaging to get people to shift their anger and trauma about covid away from the officials who failed them, to the people asking them to mask.

I went to a VW show today.

I drive a Volkswagen golf R Mark 7.

And there was this beautiful classic Porsche

And I've never moved so fast as when my 3-year-old went to touch it

Republican rhetoric all week was clearly aiming to either depress turnout or inspire visible maga pushback. Neither happened and the press doesn’t seem particularly interested in exploring the implications of that.
