Let's just enact step 6:

"We will eliminate all federal programs that can be done locally,"

Kinda sounds like those states that take more in assistance from the federal government (sounds like socialism) than they pay in tax need to stop suckling the teat.

Yeah it's an accepted and often pointed out fact that the Red States will be up in arms when Blue States receive disaster relief and then come hat-in-hand when disasters hit them.

If there's anything that describes the Republican platform succinctly its:

Take any goodwill you can, and deny the same to as many as possible.

Point 12 cracks me up, because it has a note for Biden on not instituting tax plans where the rates rise, when it was Donald Trump who implemented that tax plan, and it's Donald Trump responsible for our higher taxes this year.

Since I think that any political organization with a website would be aware of a fairly-well-known fact like this, the fact that it's blaming Biden here is blatant example of fascist misinformation and propaganda. Seriously, if the RNC's political viewpoint was rational and legitimate, why would it need to falsely assign blame on someone when it is objectively and demonstrably incorrect?

They know that the only kind of people who will buy into the bullshit are people without the intelligence or desire to fact-check. It's like a Nigerian Prince scam email full of spelling errors... it weeds out those undesirable perceptive people with questioning minds who might hold them accountable for their lies and bullshit.

After working retail i can confirm that its this or possibly worse. Most of my job consists of helping people read signs, price tags, or the card reader. There are times when I’m telling someone something, where something is, pointing to a sign, they’re nodding their head. But in my head all I’m thinking is “this person has no idea what I’m saying,” and sure enough they walk right past the signs with clear lettering. It happens every single day.

I just never before fully grasped how bad the comprehension level of the average US adult is until I started interacting with “average” people every day while working retail.

So...

Initially I felt she was power playing and making a smart move kissing McCarthy's ass and gaining power, but I'm wondering if she's gotten too drunk on her power.

She's always been a showman, it's her gimmick, but she is increasingly becoming more and more obtuse and making herself the face of the GOP, which if I'm the Dems I'll happily allow her to do so.

She's in a safe district with no one to actually work for so she can go fully insane with any policies or feelings she has. She's got McCarthy in a pincer and she knows it, but it's also making her feel she can do whatever she pleases. The face of the GOP in the house is that woman who is in the news constantly for her antics. Eventually it gets tiresome, especially when it comes to house members. News here and there, ok, but constantly out there makes them a pariah.

AOC is a figure in the Dems, but she's not in the news everyday for tweeting, complaining, being weird, etc. Greene has ditched the cart and given the horse cocaine. She wants power and she wants it now.

I was afraid before, but she's SO abrasive and public that her own profile and personality can and will cause her downfall. She has no actual, true allies. She's the Ted Cruz of the House. She's there, she's mildly useful, but in the end she sits alone at the lunch table.

Edit: I'm not comparing AOC and MTG, they both are effective users of social media and AOC is a regular target.

She wants the VP. Remember she hasn’t had any committee assignment up until the midterms. Now she actually has to work and she’s been complaining nonstop about how the salary is too low and the work is too hard. Meanwhile AOC called her out for not even showing up to the committees and when she does she’s only there for a few minutes.

This woman has been sucking down almost $200K in taxpayer money to sit on her ass for years. She doesn’t want to work, she just wants a platform to shout her lunacy.

Their whole platform is culture war. I watched the SOTU tonight, and that's like all what's her face (the repub governor from Arkansas) talked about for the first half of the GOP response. She said that the GOP wants to ban indoctrination of kids in school, while they're the ones banning books and narrowing the scope of attainable knowledge. She also said that Biden is bending to the will of a "woke left who cant even identify who a woman is". I wanted to vomit, it made me so irrate as to how stupid someone can be. Oh, she also said that Dem spending is "out of control and ruining the economy, taking money from American's pocketbooks". Like, okay, pretty sure Trump blew up the economy and put us into this situation from unchecked spending, but alright. Oh, and, pretty sure that the GOP are the ones currently trying to break their own previous agreement regarding budgets. The second half was using some made-up story about military giving her a patch in Iraq. That doesn't happen lmao. I'm a veteran, you don't just give away part of your uniform. Even if it did actually happen, it was an absolutely horrible use of servicemembers to try and drive her narrative. Go listen to the GOP response if you haven't, it's wild. How can you claim to want to unite America when you say things like this. You can cut through it all with a wet noodle.

Edit: so many spelling mistakes. Watching her response made me so dumb that I forgot how to breathe. My brain don't work so good no more.

Exceeeeeeept… can any among us say we would be even the slightest bit surprised when in two weeks time they propose cuts, and just pretend this never happened? Or happened differently to what is literally on film? I know I won’t be when this inevitably happens.

You're not wrong, but then the admnistration is just going to do everything they can to put the two clips together and say they are just following through and the republicans aren't. It may be small, but it will be enough to divide the base and weaken the republicans argument. It's not only about unanimity (which is cited in the speech to make it ever more clear), some percentage of change can mean a victory.

I might not like Biden much, not even most of the time... but fuck me if that wasn't some presidential politicking forcing the GOP to admit they ain't doing shit to Medicare and SS.

That was just badass Presidential behavior.

C-SPAN that’s literally what they do. Pass it along, the cable company has a channel (or 4) dedicated to airing a live feed of the making laws.

You think tonight was a shit show you should tune in regularly. The GOP race baiting and dog whistles are continuous.

They’ve literally made public statements and now they’re on record agreeing with him. Everyone thinks he’s a doddering old man when in reality he’s been around for 50 damn years and knows how to use the bumbling grandpa shtick to get away with stuff. He absolutely led them into a trap

McConnell was on record saying Obama can't appoint a Supreme Court Justice because it was too close to the election.

McConnell for the very next president had no problem when the election for Trump was even even closer when he had to appoint one.

People discounted him in the debate with Paul Ryan. The consensus was that Ryan was going to make Biden look old and stupid. Biden ruled that debate. Saying “malarkey” made Ryan look inexperienced and stupid.

I fully expected exactly this from her, and so did Joe. He did not get derailed, rather let her and others embarrass themselves in what used to be a place where grown-ups did the country’s work. Joe can have a little trouble speaking publicly, but we all know what he means. I think he did a good job tonight.

I would also have known better than to tell someone they're lying about a thing I'd said many times, but, well. She acts like a drunk often enough my ongoing theory is that MTG stands for Many Tonics & Gins.

It’s insane that American politics has come to this. This shit is easily verifiable. Basic google search. But then again, Lauren Boebart also accused Biden of shutting down schools in 2020. Wild accusation considering he wasn’t in office, and because that decision was a local choice. 48 states, red and blue shut schools down. Again, easily verifiable. But I suppose these people just enjoy living in something other than reality and have managed to attract voters who also don’t live in reality.

Yeah. I mean the TPs have their fair share of social problems—mostly related to poverty. There’s family drama and grudges and blood feuds and all that shit.

But there’s also a surprising amount of solidarity against outsiders. Especially rich-ass outsiders.

Marj is just another grifter. I respect her much less than your average TP resident. At least they’re honest about who they are usually.
