They don't really work for the people now. It's all about what is good for the party. That is true on both sides of the aisle. Sad state of affairs.

Stop! JUST STOP!
Yea I know that really he just doesn't care about looting and rioting when its his voting base doing it and it has nothing to do with race. I just find it ironic that democrats act like they care about black people, but don't say shit when black communities are being destroyed by riots, only to say its a big deal when it happens where a bunch of white people are.
I see a few differences if you're talking about me. One difference is Biden allowed black people's lives to be ruined without saying anything but said something right away this time.
So why would you say Biden called out rioters today but let it go all year?

The irony is, so much of what we've seen the last 4 years has been driven by the fear of what the Democrats are going to do to the country, but now Trumpism have handed the federal government to the Democrats on a silver platter. Hillary Clinton has to have been about the most beatable candidate the Democrats would have realistically thought to have run. I think any number of the '16 GOP candidates could have beat her, but they went with "that guy".
Can you imagine if the GOP had run a functioning adult in 2016? In addition to stacking the SCOTUS, you'd also likely be headed into 2021 looking at 4 more years for POTUS plus a GOP held Senate. Instead, you've got a Democrat POTUS, House, and Senate. I think we're going to see a very liberal agenda furthered over the next 2 years.
I firmly believe the GOP has been unintentionally laying the groundwork for something like what we've seen happen over the last 4 years for about 40 years now, but to see the extent to which Trump fucking blew it for them is beyond any liberal's wildest wet dream.
The biggest risk for the country going forward if you are like me and, admittedly somewhat grudgingly, admit that this is a stronger country with a functional conservative political party is that Trump still holds sway over a large chunk of the tinfoil hat types in this country. Oh, and he's built up a staggeringly huge war chest under the false pretense of mounting a legal challenges to the election results. In other words, him and his kids aren't going anywhere and the danger of that is he could create a huge distraction, even a rift, in the GOP for quite some time.
The truck flags were fun though, I guess.

I just wish someone would give Trump a "2020 presidential election participation trophy" so he can feel like he won something and stop throwing a tantrum.
We've seen one party own all 3 before. Does anything really change? I'm a little disappointed that my taxes are going to go up. Other than that, its just a bunch of rich old people in office doing whatever they can do to get richer.

Well, the last time the Dems had the keys to the castle (back in '09), they passed Obamacare.
Trump scammed the GOP just like he's scammed lots of other people who made the mistake of buying his act.

Sorry, but this forum is open for this kind of stuff. You guys wanted it, and you got it. Now would be a good time for a reminder that...
1) If you can’t handle the discussion, especially opinions of people you don’t agree with, you should definitely not come here. Just pass on by, my friend.
2) This is exactly why I’m so adamant about this garbage being confined here and not allowed on the other boards. These dumpster fire threads ain’t happening anywhere else.
And thanks to the folks posting here for keeping it on the OT board. It’s hilarious watching you guys argue about whose butthole stinks the least.

I know they are capable of small things like making insurance unaffordable for everyone and slightly changing how much you pay in taxes. I meant nothing changes in people's day to day lives. The country won't burn down or anything. At least not for 3 and a half more years until its time for dems to ratchet up black lives matter to sway votes again.
Not sure why someone like Huck would even click on this thread as mad as he gets. You need to set up something similar to a casino where people who don't have any self control can self ban themselves from the OT board.
