FAFO Mega Thread

The Dems need to run candidates who are credible on economic matters, who can appeal to a cross section of swing voters. Both parties cater to their base and the Dems in particular showed just how out of touch they were with swing voters in the last election.

Which means the Dems will run people who want to re-litigate trans folks in sports.


Yeah, this could be easy. But historically, they love making shit harder on themselves.

What are you even talking about? The only party that talks the trans is Republicans. The problem with the Democrats is that they won't engage on the issue at all, that allows the Republicans to define the issue.

Part of the issue with that is the Republican talking points on the issue are generally so f**king stupid it is difficult to come up with any sort of intelligent response to them, at least an intelligent response that is going to register with the people who get off on the rage they get from this issue.
 
John McCain was a pos who got captured in Viet Nam because he wouldn't follow orders. He then sold out his fellow pow's to get preferential treatment from his captors, that is why they called him songbird.

Who else besides Kelly said this suckers and losers comment actually happened? Name them.
You’re the POS. John McCain was a war hero. Trump isn’t qualified to empty Senator McCain’s bed pan.

It was not only the Democrats that were telling everyone that would listen what Trump was, it was also Republicans. Don’t lay this at the feet of the Democrats. This is the American electorate’s fault. Now somehow they want Democrats to fix their screw up?

And they will bitch, complain and cry endlessly that Democrats won't have the latest and biggest republican mess cleaned up in the first week of the new Democratic presidency.

My new go to when talking to my many MAGA family and friends is to ask them if they think he is a "successful businessman." They take it as a personal offense if you criticize Orange Jesus so the ensuing conversation, mostly them melting down, is entertaining.
Why do you have “many” MAGA friends and family?

The claim that John McCain was called "songbird" due to selling out fellow POWs is a long-debunked conspiracy theory with ZERO credible evidence. McCain endured years of brutal torture in captivity and refused early release to maintain military code. His fellow POWs, including those who were imprisoned with him, have consistently defended his honor and rejected these accusations.

I bet you're a message board hero, though, to your MAGA brothers.

How does one die from covid other than taking remdesivir?
How does "one" die? One can die from COVID-19 due to severe respiratory complications, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which leads to oxygen deprivation and multi-organ failure. The virus can also cause widespread inflammation, triggering a cytokine storm that overwhelms the immune system and damages vital organs. Blood clots can lead to strokes, heart attacks, or pulmonary embolisms. Additionally, secondary bacterial infections like pneumonia or sepsis can develop, further weakening the body. For those with preexisting conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or weakened immune systems, COVID-19 can exacerbate these issues, making recovery more difficult and increasing the likelihood of death.

But other than that it's pretty harmless.

My fraternity is 99.6% MAGA. One of them was chairman of the FL GOP until recently. He was on AF-1 last week when Cheeto flew to Daytona. I don't go to our reunions any longer as it would be akin to attending a Trump rally. Both sides of my family are from small towns in Illinois. HORT is my only connection to sane people.

Sweet Moses! Sounds like me. Let me guess, Farmersville, IL?

Honestly the bar for success on this is extremely low.

My main thing is that before we consider tax increases, we need to trim the fat. Honestly I think they'll find $500B+ in waste pretty easily, but I'd feel good if they simply cut whatever waste there is.

Finding dead people marked as alive in social security is a worthy find, although it doesn't likely save us much money.

If they went through it all and didn't find any waste it would still be worth doing, because it makes the case for tax increases anymore reasonable conversation. Reality is we all suspect there's waste but nobody really knows if it's a little or a lot. It's well worth the effort in finding out, if for no other reason than to raise public confidence that the government is being good stewards of our money.
$500B? Have another cocktail and think about that number. Easily?
