@steveinman It’s not about intelligence but career preservation. If they come out as Trump supporters, it’s over for them. Hollywood is toxic and any straying from the Liberal path results in excommunication. I don’t blame them for that but would rather they just kept quiet.
@TrentKMitchell @JGetz93 @BrandiKruse ..the needs of the nation are different to the needs of one segment or group of the populace. The US needs all 50 states. All need to feel they have a voice. If not the current system, what would you propose instead? It MUST keep the union together. What have you got?
@TrentKMitchell @JGetz93 @BrandiKruse As a thought exercise, place yourself in the shoes of a farmer in Wyoming. Your vote doesn’t matter because NYC, LAX and DC have enough people to win a National election because of population density. Is that really sensible? Keep in mind that..
@JGetz93 @TrentKMitchell @BrandiKruse ..that their citizens would be fairly represented and their voices not drowned out by cities like New York and Boston. This has not changed and why we still need the current system of government. The USA isn’t just the two coasts; there a massive bit in the middle.
@JGetz93 @TrentKMitchell @BrandiKruse I don’t think you understand the concept of negotiation. When the Founders were creating what would become the nation, they needed to recognize that we need less population in agricultural states so we can grow food. To encourage these states to join, they had to convince them..
@TrentKMitchell @JGetz93 @BrandiKruse ..make your case, garner support and trigger the mechanisms provided to you. Don’t be afraid to have your idea tested and potentially rejected. If that happens, adjust and try again. If your idea is good, you’ll garner that needed support.
@TrentKMitchell @JGetz93 @BrandiKruse Judging history through the lens of modernity is dangerous and an inherently flawed method. No doubt you did dumb shit as a kid? Should we judge you now or as six year old you? Values, beliefs and perspectives change as society evolves. If you want to make changes, then..
@pinkfox @TomandCurley Anyone surprised by Biden being aggressive when put under pressure hasn’t been paying attention to his campaign events. How many candidates challenge constituents to push up contests or jab them in the chest? One. That’s how many.
@jasonrantz If this doesn’t demonstrate to people why we must vote for Republicans, even just as a protest to give our rulers a bloody nose, then nothing will. What a sham. Repeal I-1639 on precedent.
@TeeterBuilt@shennaniganery@BrandiKruse@LorenCulp@JayInslee 2/ you don’t claim to be following “the science and data” whilst failing to show your work. At some point, you have to open up the state because mental health issues are beginning to become more of a threat than the virus.
@TeeterBuilt@shennaniganery@BrandiKruse@LorenCulp@JayInslee 1/ You would have a valid point if it was just wearing masks but it’s so much more than that. You don’t say “2 weeks to flatten the curve” and keep it going 7 months. You don’t issue eviction moratoriums with no protections or landlords. You don’t flip-flop on bar opening hours.
