@coachbrucepearl@BernieSanders@SenWarren You mean the intelligence that said Iraq had weapons of mass destruction which they clearly didn't and served as the catalyst for the most devastating war in the 21st century? How'd that Netanyahu prediction of what would happen of we overthrew Saddam play out?
@Riley_Gaines_ You mean like the late 90s when several states froze electricity rates and all we got was the strongest peacetime economy in 40 years? Or how about the 1940s when we issued broad federal price controls and we ended the depression?
@alex__backup Never. It's the most damaging event ever done to a party. Even the civil war didn't damage democrats the way the depression damaged republicans.
@jawillick Voters change their mind on policy all the time. Look at the only president to serve 2 nonconsecutive terms before Trump. Grover Cleveland lost re-election in 1888 because voters opposed his anti tariff stance. He won in 1892 because voters were mad about tariffs that passed.
@daveweigel Um...Tennessee? Although the only good barbecue in Tennessee is in the bluest part of the state but it's also the best barbecue in the world so...
@daveweigel Is this the largest liberal majority in the history of Congress? Democrats have had way bigger majorities in the past but not without conservative southern democrats or the blue dog coalition inflating their numbers.
@3YearLetterman@sophieraiin@ChuckGrassley This requires everything that happened in Georgia after Ossoff's win to be overturned. The Braves must forfeit their World Series title in 2021. The Bulldogs must forfeit their 2021 and 2022 national championships. All of that happened after Ossoff stole his Senate seat.
Drove all the way to my local polling place and there was literally nowhere on my ballot to vote against a 24 team College Football Playoff and a 76 team NCAA Basketball Tournament. Had to write it all in
So regarding Anakin and Star Wars, is the online right arguing that a deeply flawed institution serving a corrupt government justifies murdering a bunch of kids, strangling your wife and serving as second in command to a fascist regime that genocides entire planets?
@mattyglesias That attempted purge is also one of the most overrated stories in history. Democrats' 1938 midterm disaster was due to FDR slashing his own new deal programs triggering a deep recession within the depression and the fact that they were defending an unprecedented amount of seats.
@EmmaVigeland Emma as a Giants fan you had to see the game earlier this year when he was atrocious against you guys. He played amazing today. I'm holding out hope. But don't act like he hasn't given fans reason to believe he's not it at least to this point.
@ThatRavensFan@ShamebyJames2 Not the same as wartime spending. And for context the founding president of the Republican party presided over a 2,859% increase in the national debt because the freaking civil war happened under him.
