Maybe stick to your beloved newsmax? Just saying.

Posts: 5452Now, here is an economic problem no Repub has produced or presided over
At least, not in the past 100 years or since the data for this kind of thing has been available:
There were 4.6 million more job openings than unemployed workers in December
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/01/ther...ndroidappshare
Of course, Repubs have a quick fix for a problem like this and for the kind of Trump's Pandemic Supply Chain Destruction Inflation the world is faced with today; they simply do what they usually do when they have the chance, which is to find some new and unprecedented way to crash the USA economy and wipe out millions of USA jobs.
In no time at all, any possibility of "too many jobs" "wages rising too much" and "prices rising to meet our capacity to pay them" will vanish into thin air and disappear just like that dream Trump told us his Pandemic would seem like any minute now way back in early 2020.
I know Repubs are champing at the bit, howling at the moon and clawing at the unyielding earth with their bare claws to get in there and do exactly that as soon as their extreme gerrymandering and plans to impose new rules to throw out likely Dem votes and only count the rest come to fruition.

Of course, it is odd that you would quote a poster who I doubt has ever watched a complete Rachel Maddow Show and appear to accuse him of spouting DNC talking points.
Unless you surmised from what you quoted of him that he must have been just as upset with Reagan and Trump both for announcing in advance that they would nominate a woman for the SCOTUS, with GHWBush for deciding in advance that his nominee would be an African American, with Eisenhower for deciding in advance that his nominee would be a Catholic, with Reagan again for deciding in advance that another nominee of his would be an Italian American, etc as he is with Biden for announcing upfront that his nominee would be a black woman but he was simply too polite to mention it.
Several presidents have sought barrier-breaking SCOTUS picks on race, gender, ethnicity.
Biden is not the first president to consider demographics.

Please, fascists, note the order of the words. None of the words are bigly so you ought to be able to understand them. But this is about the order of the words, not their meaning. First extraordinary qualifications, then character, after that experience and finally integrity. Lots of words came before "Black woman". Yet you heard none of them. What you heard was "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah Black woman."
Let me repeat that one more time. What fascists heard was "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah Black woman. ".
For some reason, the fascists believe (undoubtedly because they are racists either overtly or covertly) that the best Black woman Biden could nominate is significantly less qualified than any white man he could nominate. You keep saying that, but saying it doesn't make it true. But just go on howling at the moon. We're all used to it.
The fascist Republican party evidently believes that Biden's nomination process will be to go to the mall and yell out "Yo, Shaniqua, come with me. I've got a job for you. " Sorry, but looking under rocks for the dumbest sycophants you can find was what the one-term, twice-impeached former guy did. I know that because the one-term, twice-impeached former guy had more turnover in his Cabinet in the first two and a half years of his presidency than any of his five immediate predecessors did in their entire first terms..
Biden will pick someone who is qualified who also happens to be a Black woman. It is the fascist, racist Republican party who, like always, is trying to make this about race when it is about extraordinary qualifications, character, experience and integrity. But everybody already knew that.
40 some-odd-years-ago, your god, Ronnie Reagan, said he'd nominate a woman to SCOTUS. Where was Republican outrage then? Passing over qualified men to nominate a woman? So what we have here is "manufactured outrage". Just like the "manufactured outrage" over books, furries, vaccines, the Big Lie, bathrooms, masks and everything else under the sun. All to detract from the attempted coup on January 6th.

Of course, as it turned out Trump, Moscow Mitch and the other Repubs who put that piece of crap together had conned American taxpayers into flushing $2.5+ Trillion down the shitter in exchange for fewer jobs created with it than without it, no noticeable improvement in Real GDP growth with it than without it and I don't think it ever produced even a single quarter of 3% GDP growth before Trump's spectacularly horrible economic stewardship and decisions plunged us into another, say it with me, Great Repub Crash and Recession.
I didn't take the bet. Yes, I lost a whole $1 by not placing it on the one most easily predictable outcome of any political party's likely economic results in history.
But I just couldn't bring myself to bet "on" the economic failure of America, which is what that bet would have been for on my side of it. Not even for $1.
Now somebody wants you to bet serious money that someone who was the President of the United States, an honored position touted by Americans as the Leader of the Free World, is enough of a stone cold criminal as his own words and behavior provide evidence for over and over again that even the millions of dollars his sucker cult followers send him won't keep him from being indicted, charged, convicted and required to spend well-deserved time behind bars.
How sad.

But that was 40+ years when Republicans weren't fascists, racists, homophobes, xenophobes and misogynists.

Posts: 5452Your Healthcare Provider Loves Repubs and Joe Manchin
When the only notable legislative effort of one Party over several years has been to repeal and not replace the Affordable Care Act and every Repub and 2 Dems in the Senate vote No on, say, reducing the monthly cost of insulin from about $1,000 to a more realistic $35, they're going to get more lovin' from the folks who bill you for that healthcare coverage:
Companies, execs gave nearly $300,000 to Manchin campaign after he rejected Biden bill

Sorry, sweetie, but the only ones running from things are the fascists who are running from January 6th as fast as their little fascist legs can carry them. But now they have hope because the one-term, twice-impeached, want to-be-dictator says he will now pardon them.

Biden will pick someone who is qualified wo also happens to be a Black woman. It is the fascist, racist Republican party who, like always, is trying to make this about race.
