But they need those votes, too. Democrats need the votes of every who has ever voted Democratic and some folks who never have. Because they need not just more votes but QED:2000+2016, they need more more votes.

You may think that being president is the height of success, but I think he doesn't. He claims otherwise because admitting failure or fault makes his neurotic little brain break, and he'll cling to the office to his last breath because however much of a step down it was, where he's going after will almost certainly be far worse - four walls and a cot, or six walls and a pillow. |

That ain't how he got there. He got there by throwing random idiocy, hustler con man grand promises and racist vulgarity at the wall. Seeing what stuck, he doubled down on that. He ain't a fucking strategist, he's a salesman.

But again this just reflects my original point. Statements like these are so far to the left they almost fall of the map, and are very unpopular with the electorate, yet your party insists on putting them front and center, giving trump all the ammunition he needs. Or, for every illegal immigrant that illegally crosses the border, Trump should import 3 impoverished right wing Polish/South African/Ukrainian patriots to offset the future electorate impact. Fair is fair. |

I guess Canada is so far to the left that it falls off the map. If your idea of "far left" is "don't lock children up in cages for crossing a border" then it's hard for me to figure out the political spectrum, I guess.

If the electorate has the right, they should also accept the responsibility and if need be, the scorn and blame. If they don't like it, well..... tough shit, fuckfaces.

Odd thing, though, is that the "will of the people" in the 2016 election was for the other candidate, not the clown who got voted in by the EC.

Hah, please. I'm Canadian. Were I American, I expect I'd've voted for Democratic presidential nominees since 1992 (in 1988, I think I would have preferred Bush41 over Dukakis) mostly because in my lifetime, I've seen Republicans increasing abandoning the field of reason. Frankly, I'd consider it both rude and disrespectful to pretend my friend wasn't doing something stupid when he was clearly doing something very very stupid. I consider the U.S. to be a friendly nation and you will have my support on most issues, but voting for Trump.... well, I'm not going to sugarcoat the colossal stupidity of that.

Good grief, you're one mighty stupid moron! Anecdote is a story. It's a fact that the majority of voters in the 2016 presidential election voted for one particular candidate, not the candidate with the abomination on his head. It's a fact that the Electoral College selected Trump, not the person who, going by the usual meaning of "the will of the people", was selected by said will of the people. I did not say anything other than the facts of the matter. The "sour grapes" bit is something you are pretending to read into what I posted. Stop being a liar and you won't have so many problems here. Well, you'll still be a problem, but you'll be less of one. |

Trump was given a HUGE head start in life and for most of his life he did what most people so fortunate would do. He lived a life of luxury, sometimes doing well, other times squandering it. But what he didn't do was end up like Jim Bakker selling wares on late night TV. Trump did SOMETHING to get himself where he is, even it was just plain luck. I would venture to guess most would call what he has successful if it weren't for the fact it is Trump. |

So we agree. A chimp couldn't be where Trump is and never will be.
Quote:
But again, you are focusing on the process by which he got there. This isn't about that. This is about the fact HE IS THERE. Trump can act with impunity. He lives a life of luxury. Whatever method got him there, he is there. And every move he makes, no matter how dumb the rest of us think it is, does not seem to be bringing him down. He has a powerful shield around him in Mitch and Barr and a weak speaker in Pelosi who doesn't have the fortitude to do anything about him. You can keep waiting for his next action or next step to bring him down. But nothing so far has done that and it is looking less and less likely to do so. He can do what he wants. He knows it. You can't deny that, no matter how he got there. |

No, we're not. I know this is a common belief among Deplorables; that we all are thinking the same thing you are but we're just too politically correct to say it out loud.
But it's not true. Some of us really think bigotry is wrong. And I'm not some hippy liberal. I'm an old white guy who worked on a farm. I was even a Republican for a long time - until people like you took over the party. That's why you're losing. Every year there are fewer people like you around. It's not just black people and brown people and yellow people and women and gays and Muslims and Jews who are against you. It's people like me who have no problem with the idea that everyone is equal. Last edited by Little Nemo; 09-12-2019 at 12:30 PM. |

Pick a country where the population is mostly right wing and I’ll take those any day. Regardless of skin color. Every migrant the left gets from south of the border, we get one from anywhere else. Seems fair to me, unless it’s about swaying the electorate in your favor. It’s not about that is it? What I find infuriating is that for some reason the left has come completely out of the closet regarding immigrants from south of the border knowing full well they overwhelmingly vote democrat when given the chance, and merely by their proximity to the US border they should get some preferable treatment over other nations with people in poverty. Satan > The left. |

Let's drop the nonsense about people coming from right wing countries and left wing countries. Nobody inherits a political ideology. Do you feel children born in America while Bill Clinton or Barack Obama were President are liberals and children born while George Bush or Donald Trump were President are conservative? What you mean is you think white people vote for Republicans and non-white people vote for Democrats. The Democrats aren't courting non-white voters. They're getting non-white voters because people like you have turned the Republicans into the white man's party. |

I don’t care about anyone’s skin color or religion, what I care about is a fair playing field, politically, and for my rights, personally, to remain untouched. Your side openly wants to sway the electorate in their favor by importing votes, and you know it. That’s subversion, and pure filth from where I sit. That’s the lefts whole angle. And yes, you’re a bigot. This is simple fact. Now, where we differ is that I don’t personally give a fuck, but to call me one is quite funny. There is nothing wrong with stopping illegal immigration, focusing on citizens over “migrants” and spending our nations treasure on our own citizens. You are on the fringe, not me. |

Right-wingers in Poland, for example, would be shocked at the lack of publicly funded universal health care in the US, and they have far more restrictive laws on gun ownership than we do. You import a demographically significant number of Polish immigrants for "your side" and all it'll get you is faster "socialized medicine" and stricter gun control. The US conservative movement couldn't scrounge up a reliable voting bloc for much of their wacky ideology even among most other majority-white countries, let alone from the existing voluntary-immigrant population. It's also worth noting that before about the 1990s, Latino immigrants from Central and South American, both documented and undocumented, were far more likely than they are now to support Republican positions and politicians. Latin American immigrants were widely considered a natural "fit" for conservative politics: overwhelmingly Christian (both Catholic and more recently large numbers of Pentecostals), hardworking and ambitious, gender-traditionalist, and so on. But racist and nativist hysteria in the Republican Party (coupled with a fair bit of residual anti-Catholic prejudice) resulted in the GOP shooting itself in the foot when it came to attracting them as voters. The current Latino immigrant/Democrat alignment was by no means inevitable (and even now is far from universal). The Republican Party largely caused it by its own shortsighted bigotry.

As a Hispanic I have to report that there was a time when I was considering to vote for McCain, but the Republican party decided to follow the "lead" of California and win for a while with a message of hate as it was in the 80s, never mind that eventually that was a big factor that turned California into one of the bluest of states. Turns out that most Hispanics who are citizens are not amused. Last edited by GIGObuster; 09-12-2019 at 01:35 PM. |
