However, the better question you should be asking yourself is, if the "fat white guy with the orange skin", becomes the Repub's nominee for presidential ticket, would YOU STILL VOTE for HIM, again?

This was probably the greatest insult on TV I had ever seen.

"I feel bad for you. ".
"I do not think about you at all. ".
Everything Tooms does is Republican bad, Democrat good that it is a point of absurdity. It does not matter that Trump spear headed the development of the vaccine. There is nothing any Republican president has ever done that is good in the history of the country. If you point out that Trump developed the vaccine, he will find someone else to give credit for the vaccine. It is predictable.
So why would anyone correct Tooms or read him anymore? You already know what he is going to say.

They can never point out exactly what you said that they claim was "hate speech", because if they did you could prove it to be true. So instead they just shriek a nebulous, vague term, amplified by the fake news and hollyweird, and hope that people don't notice or ask questions.
The good news is, more and more people are noticing and asking questions.

Posts: 1044Fascinating case study
Further to the recent discussion on illiteracy and education, a report has emerged that 23 schools in Baltimore city, an urban, heavily-democrat area, does not have a single student who has reached age-level math proficiency.
Not a single student.
We are not talking advanced math, but simply the accepted age-level proficiency. Out of many thousands of Baltimore city students, not a single one is proficient.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/baltim...ically-failing
What is particularly interesting is the table that I have attached, which shows that far from being underfunded, as is the standard fake leftist claim, Baltimore public schools have the third highest per-student spending of all school districts in the entire country!
(New York has by far the highest spending per student, which again begs the question why the NYC illiteracy rate is twice that of neighboring Vermont, but that's a different story).
Quote from the article: "And when you see other counties thriving, why is it that counties such as Montgomery County, Howard County, those counties are able to thrive, but why is Baltimore City systematically failing continuously year over year?" she questioned.
So, we know it is not a lack of funding that has prevented 23 urban democrat schools from having a single student proficient in math. Quite the opposite in fact. Any other ideas from the resident leftists?

Well, no wonder you and other wingers work so hard and "fight the good fight" to make sure we get many more of those major Repub economic disasters and massive jobs destruction and blessedly fewer of those national scourges of historic Dem jobs gains and legislation that actually works to improve life in America. Because the former is so "good" for the disadvantaged and the latter is so "bad" for them, right?
LOL. That is some sick shit, dude.

The top 15 judicial districts with the highest number of federal corruption convictions in 1976 to 2018 were centered in cities that went for Biden, as were 8 of the top 13 states. Does that mean that Democratic politicians are inherently more corrupt than Republicans? I don't necessarily think so. Most of the bastards are corrupt.
As to the first part of your post, I totally disagree. If Democrats would stop trying to create a European welfare state on steroids, and instead confine help to people who actually need it, maybe we'd see more progress.

I've posted that I'd love to see Tim Scott and Nikki Haley on the Republican presidential ticket in 2024. If that happens who would you vote for Spidy? That's a rhetorical question. You'd vote for the old white guy.
