Which one of the Great Repub Crashes, Recessions, Depressions and Massive Job Losses did your small business owner friends appreciate the most?
Which Repub major economic downturn of the past 100 years do you suppose inspire them to vote for Repubs again and again? (R)Hoover's? (R)Eisenhwer's serial Recessions? (R)Reagan"s really big one? (R)Bush1's long one? One of (R)W's? Maybe (R)Nixon's Long National Nightmare was the inspiration. Or was (R)Trump's historic economic Crash including his idiotic economic decisions that led directly to hundreds of thousands of American deaths the one that really get them fired up excited to vote Repub again?
Different opinions are fine. Which of the 60+ opinions of the judges who blasted and laughed (R)Trump's and the Repubs' lawyers out of their courtroom for claiming something about Traitor (R)Trump's Big "Stop The Steal!" Lie for which they had absolutely zero evidence did you respect the most? I respected all of them.
Democrats don't have to be right about everything. They just have to avoid making the same stupid disastrous economic decisions that Repubs make over and over again and will most certainly make again as soon as the American electorate foolishly gives them the slightest opportunity to do so. Guaranteed.

There are exceptions, but I expect a student or a senior to vote Democrat out of their financial interests. I expect a small business owner to vote Republican out of their financial interests.
What I call Democratic are guys here who make the argument that anyone who votes Republican is a second class, knuckle dragging specimen, and you Eih are clearly one of those guys.
It offends me that bashing Republicans has become so normal in your world that you bring it to a hooker board. I swear to God all you douches who were asked what is the first word that comes to mind when you hear the word Republican is stupid.
When you make a dumb comment like the one you made, anyone who calls themselves Republican is more of a problem than a solution, I shudder. You are defining all people in one group BY HOW THEY VOTE. WTF is wrong with you?
I have a prominent Republican friend who is a major donor. He has does more effing charity work in his life than you would do in ten of yours. He supports Republicans because that is the party that rules in his area, and he supports them because it is critical to his business.
He learned early on that if he went into court without having financially supported a judge, he would get screwed. Financing the campaign of Republican judges was necessary for his business, and his business employs hundreds of people. And he should vote Democrat because it benefits you? Or you think it is smart?
And when you make comments like you just did and Trump is Hitler, wouldn't you Democratic have a moral imperative to steal the election? All it took was 40,000 or so votes to be changed.
You cannot have it both ways. If Republicans are evil, then it was entirely moral to steal the election, yet you deny that it was even possible. Anyone suggesting it was possible, and it could have been done so easily, is a conspiracy believing nut job. Clearly, you have no respect for the opinion of people that are different than yours.
So as far as I am concerned, you can have this form while you all jack yourselves off. I have respect for people who vote Democrat. I have no respect for a bunch of arrogant Democratic who make the kind of comment you just did. So Democrats have always been right on everything and always will be? Yeesh. Again, WTF is wrong with you people?

And, bear in mind, anything OTHER than an overwhelming Dem victory will still be claimed by the QAnon Repubs and the always pro QAnon Repub mainstream media to be "A Great QAnon Republican Victory!" anyway and will continue to embolden them toward more legislative anti-America Sedition and Violent Insurrection.
As usual.
In fact, correction, even an overwhelming Dem victory will be claimed by QAnon Repubs and the always pro QAnon Repub mainstream media to be a terrible loss for the poor loser Dems and a Great Victory! for the always winner QAnon Repubs just as we have seen them do after Traitor Trump and his QAnon Repub Party suffered more losses to the Dems in the White House, Senate and House over the past 4 years than at any time since (R)Herbert Hoover was president almost 100 years ago. LOL.
The QAnon Repub Party is the "Covid19-Delta Variation-Delta Variation Plus-Etc Etc Etc" of American democracy. Even if everyone else is vaccinated against the current version, the unvaccinated (by choice) will still be there to mutate into stronger, more virulent and more deadly versions threatening life and limb of the majority and of American democracy itself, not just for themselves.

A small Republican victory will embolden Republicans to do stupid stuff but they probably won't get away with much. This will be dump 2.0.
A small Democratic victory will send Republicans over the edge. In the states they lose narrowly they will take over the state election boards and declare Republican victory. They will then proceed to install a Republican dictator which will signal the end of democracy as we know it.
Only a huge Democratic victory will convince Republicans that the kooks have got to go.

Their GQP Repub pols' sole focus now is to suppress enough Dem votes to shift 2-3 percentage points to the Repubs in all the right places and then rig the vote count by appointed GQP Repub partisans so they never suffer election losses again, otherwise known as "overthrowing American democracy."

US intelligence agencies concluded in 2016 that Russia was behind an effort to tip the scale of the US election against Hillary Clinton, with a state-authorized campaign of cyber attacks and fake news stories planted on social media.
Somehow Fux "News" forgot to report that, eh?

Not even mentioning that finding any "reputable" quote blubbered by the Republican Congressmen is a muy tall order.

It would seem the GOP aren't yet done with the Orange Throne. Is the candle of hope flickering out for the GOP?

Posts: 1604Another example of jobs Americans won't do
The person from NOTB claims (falsely, of course) that there are no jobs Americans won't do. This, of course, is the standard Republican talking point about increased unemployment benefits.
So, for him and the rest of the fascists, here's an article about picking Chile in New Mexico. Yes, the article is an "opinion piece". But the author researched newspaper articles going back 50 years and has included dates, names, etc. https://news.yahoo.com/opinion-backb...060300514.html.
Of, course, the fascists will all shout "Lügenpresse".

This earlier post was a great and painfully truthful summation, btw:
I copied this but it is still worth reading.
