I'm pretty sure antisemitism was already a thing before Marx.

How could they not have known that would happen?

We need to reflect on why Hamlet keeps getting trounced by Dracula. In 2024, it was simple: Biden-Harris followed four years of outstanding domestic policies with the two worst campaigns in history.

Are the Democrats trying to decide whether or not to be? I don't think things are quite that bad yet.

Most schools offer some remedial courses to students who are strong in other areas. I am surprised Harvard doesn't.

I, for one, welcome our robot overlords.

The conservatives like you who put America above conservatism already abandoned Trump long ago, or saw through him day one.
comment in response to post
One of the (many) huge mistakes of the Harris campaign was bringing in people like Liz Cheney to repudiate Trump. Part of his schtick and his draw was separating himself from the con establishment - Bush, Cheney, McCain, Romney.... It *helped* him. Now they'll embrace the Federalist Society.

It might be the new normal.

There are no able-bodied men using Medicaid. Only sick or injured people use it. Does he want men to pay for insurance while they are able bodied? Have an insurance mandate? An uninsured penalty? Or just let people die when they go to the ER without insurance?

Two clever by half = one clever. And of course its a tax.

They have abandoned free-market capitalism and embraced state-directed four-year plans. Leader says: "More plumbers; less philosophers." So mote it be.

I want to know who's running the country now?

Sorry. You said Hillary, and I read Harris. Two very different situations.
comment in response to post
No. She didn't. She could have, but she didn't. The vast majority of Americans think Harris did well there - because they believe that what Trump was saying was true! And Harris made the best she could of a bad situation. In fact, Harris made the worst she could of a great situation.

High jobs or low crime. Those were the only correct answers to every question Biden or Harris were asked. Look at their ridiculous lines. His, because it has no basis in reality. Hers, because she lets the viewers think he is right!?!

For four years, Harris had one job: Be ready to take over.

When I watched the Biden-Trump debate, I was disappointed. My guy did not do well. When I watched the Harris-Trump debate, I got angry! My gal just tossed it all away. That was the moment I knew Trump would be President again.

Again, Bush was running from a very bad position - against Kerry - and still won. Harris from a very good position - against Trump - and still lost.
comment in response to post
She still could've won, if she had run a halfway competent campaign. In the end, the vote was very close. Lost by about the same small numbers as Trump in 20 and Clinton in 16. "I thought they did not fight to win each day. It didn’t seem like she even tried.” - Trump's manager (afterward).
comment in response to post
Harris had low crime, low unemployment, rising wages, rising gdp, fastest and strongest recovery from the pandemic of any large country, and was running against a criminal idiot. And still lost. What did Bush have to run on? And still won.
comment in response to post
Karl Rove is a genius. An evil genius, but a genius. Winning with a bad candidate is the measure of a good campaign. Losing what should have been a winning position to a horrible candidate is the measure of a bad campaign.
comment in response to post
Not embrace Cheney - or Cuban. More interviews. Talk about Jobs. Jobs. Jobs. In the debate: T: "There's crime like we've never seen!" H: "Well, you've been indicted." Ad hominem attacks concede the point. Crime is down!!! Show more compassion for Gaza. (This is tricky and needs more than a tweet.)

Lying and bragging are like breathing to him. No rehearsal required.
comment in response to post
Harris ran the worst campaign I have ever seen, and I have been politically active for more than 40 years. Yes, she was up against Fox, X, the EC, oligarchs and the aftershocks of Covid. But she still would have won if she had run a halfway decent campaign. Don't make excuses.

No one receiving Medicaid is able bodied. It stands for "medical aid", and if you are receiving it, you are sick or injured - not able bodied.
comment in response to post
No. That was as eo, I think.

Trump cancelled Harvard's access to the government reporting system - where it tells the gov what foreign students are enrolled there.

Trade schools teach you how to do things like HVAC, auto repair, house wiring and plumbing. They have not gutted that technology.
comment in response to post
Did you read the article? The whole thing lays out the case that Biden and his inner circle screwed the pooch. Then concludes: But really the Democrats are the problem, not Biden and his inner circle.

Bar chart would be better than pie chart here.

That looks like the Bat Signal.
comment in response to post
Saying it out loud was dumb. Thinking it would work in the first place was dumber. Harris ran the worst Presidential campaign ever.
comment in response to post
And it was the same speech 8 years ago to the Boy Scouts. I wonder how many of them had to sit through it twice?
comment in response to post
That never ends well.
comment in response to post
I give Clinton his due. But it was Jimmy Carter who left us the lowest debt/gdp since before the Great Depression. And the tsunami of red ink started with Reagan.
