I know why! It’s because nobody else gets to pick their team.
“rules for thee, not for me”
I don’t read DMs, so if your insult is important catch me in politics sub. For a limited time only! Thank you.

Dogs are fantastic for the police, and if you’re a criminal, they’re much better than getting shot.
Nonsensical, your request for abolishment is REJECTED.


They were better than now somewhat, but we already knew that we were getting screwed compared to boomers (gen-X checking in).
Food and rent were a lot cheaper.


Ha, he has a little N64 controller


A good start would be releasing the Epstein files. It would take you about 10 minutes.


SHOCKER.
I must give him credit, he did last a few days longer than I suspected before calling “no fair I was robbed”. Almost a week!
As a beekeeper, that outfit is absolute crap and it’s begging for bees to fly up those stupid massive sleeves and sting your armpits.
Those bare hands… aren’t going to work out
This costume should be called a “bee collection outfit” as you could use the sleeves as funnels, fitting a swarm in each sleeve


Ever since he was a presidential candidate, President Donald Trump has been promising the American people a “terrific,” “phenomenal” and “fantastic” new health care plan to replace the Affordable Care Act.
WE’RE WAITING
Ten years, no healthcare plan. Good job, Trump


Nathan, you goofball.
Only 28% of voters are Democrats, and only about 10% of independents (44% of voters) are to the left of Democrats.
I’m not a mathematics professor, but I believe that means that 62% of voters aren’t as left as Democrats. They vote too, you see. You’re supposed to represent everybody, that’s your job.
Independents are 44% of voters, and about 30% of those are centrists. Ignore them at your peril.
There are many things left and center agree on (like term limits, minimum wage increase, no war, pre-Reagan taxes on the wealthy, universal healthcare, age limits on reps).
Serve your electorate or lose.
Partisans lie. Math does not. Do the math.

I was wondering who still voted R a few days ago here on Lemmy; I surmised that it was mostly Christian fundies.
Nailed it.
They’re the absolute best at denial and tolerating (celebrating?) dirtbag pederasts.
Do you see that huge drift of independents to left? That’s why you won. We’re the largest voting block of them all (according to Pew and everybody else)


Several Democrats also called for restraint in the party’s oversight agenda, warning that talk of impeaching President Donald Trump or his Cabinet should not overshadow that focus.
They’re not wrong.
Even if you impeach and convict Trump, new President Vance will pardon everybody. Please don’t be stupid. You’re just going to have to wait two years for this.
Why don’t you… release the Epstein files? You don’t even have to break the law. Just share what you’ve seen by “accident”. “Oops, I forgot I can’t say that we have proof that Trump and Clinton and Dershowitz and Epstein raped kids together on the Lolita Express, I’m sorry.”
Frankly, Trump serving the next two years will only hurt Republicans. Look at him.


Wah, it’s so crazy, it’s almost as if whenever you promise “no war” and “Epstein files release”, and then you go to war and sit on the Epstein files, you lose.
Who knew?


Just wait until you read about The Terror! You’ll discover the vast majority of victims were just regular people. The odds are much better that you will be guillotined than an Apple tech bro. That neighbor that you pissed off 8 years ago will see to it.


Disgusting. I always turn it off when I can find the setting, it should not be the default.
Those days aren’t coming to an end, if congress, the senate, and the President are all thieves, Jared is just another thief.
Investigate him, but don’t even bother charging him until Trump is out of office, because he will just pardon Jared.


Wait, does centrism ever win an election?
You need their votes to win any election.
You can’t even get your own voters to show up (2 million Ds sat out the last Presidential election).
You need independent votes to win anything. There aren’t enough Ds or Rs (28% each). Without independent support (of which centrists are the majority, two thirds) you lose. Every time.

Math never lies. Partisans do


Democrats are only 28% of the voters (just like Republicans).
Independents are 44% of the voters (of which centrists are a significant part, over 30% alone… still a larger segment than D or R parties)
Centrism wins every election.
D and Rs are shrinking, and have for years.
(Independents are very rare on Lemmy, but not in the real world, which is the exact opposite of Lemmy)


Wrong. We just care about domestic stuff more than international stuff.
Just like your country… and every other country.


They won’t, so there is no reason to trust America again. Trump’s a tool, he’s not the boss. He can’t even clean his ass.
That’s it?
Unacceptable.
Here’s hoping he’s at least put in a real prison
