In Australia we would call that a "Clayton's" post-mortem. The post-mortem you have when you are not having a post-mortem.
Not true. "The Left" is a meaningless phantasm. "The Right" is a dangerous phantasm. I don't really care how Left someone is on whatever imaginary spectrum the news has cooked up this week, people will never agree on "how left" a given politician was anyways. The same fucking guy is a Marxist to one person and a corporate shill to the guy next to them at the diner. Look at Obama. Left? Center? Slightly Right but with a Left aesthetic? Muslim? Black guy? The answer you get depends on who you ask, and whatever the truth of the matter his legacy is not the result of how he placed on some rubric of directionality. That is not what makes a good president, or a successful campaigner. What we need is true leadership, and someone who gives at least a flying shit if not a squatting one about the American people as a whole.
Well, whatever my real opinion is, it's definitely not what you said I said. I'm frankly not sure what an opinion could be, other than "a lot of words". If you think all the Democrats need to do is make a slight rightward adjustment to the Left/Right Slider to squeak out a narrow victory in Pennsylvania next time, via some vaguely signalled "messaging" nods than only polirical junkies will ever hear about, then I'm glad you're not on the DNC planning comittee. But the people who are have the same disastrous idea, so...
Apparently, the Democrats just haven't become as good at lies, grift, violence, and treason as the Republicans and their supporters. So they're gonna keep losing elections to the Teaparty.
It was just complaining. I was trying to be nice.
I haven't said that. I said the Democrats lost because of inflation. Harris/Biden would have won had the globe not experienced it. Trump didn't win by much at all.
There is literally nothing they can do. Impeachment will only be an option if Trump openly defies SCOTUS.
What makes defying SCROTUS an impeachment option?
Unless the economy turns to utter shit. He’s got to be destroyed first. Then he can be impeached. But as long as his favorability stays high, he’s untouchable. And that all depends on the economy.
So your recommendation is to... do nothing different, and hope for a different outcome?
Well, Trump hasn't had a real total failure - yet. he came close a few weeks ago when the markets started to melt down. But he quickly realized it and reversed course. But like I said in another thread, the economic outlook isn't particularly rosy. The American people will not tolerate an economic loser. They will abandon him if he doesn't deliver the goods. And I truly think he won't be able to - despite his reversal on tariffs. The demographic changes and the impact he's having on the federal government will fuck himself over.
In fact it royally sucks
WUT? They elected him TWICE.
He will TELL them he has delivered the goods and they will believe him as always.
President Biden has simply revealed the truth. If you deny that, then which of the two of you is having thinking capability trouble?
The Democrats are digging themselves a deeper hole every time they make this claim that her loss was due to sexism and/or racism. Democrat voters (as well as moderates & indepedents) who sat out the election out of candidate apathy are being told they're these horrible, bigoted people. Why would they want to vote for a party in the next election that has so much contempt for them? Shouldn't Democrats be focused on building up inspiration for their party, instead of recklessly insulting them?
He certainly sounded more lucid and clear headed than swiz usually does.
