Libertarians are 3x the size of the Greens, most Greens are not lapsed Democrats; and 3rd parties hurt the GOP more statistically.
Democrats should try not running the ~10th place finisher of the 2020 primaries in the General after Biden prevented a real primary in 2024.

ChatGPT has no idea what it is talking about above Linear Algebra consistently, good luck learning Feynman Path Integrals with it.

FFS, maybe the AIs should take over.
At least they aren't this dumb and immoral.

The US should elect our FBI director to 6-10 year terms imho.
The Senate can't be trusted.

Anonymous messaging is - like it or not - what is needed in authoritarian regimes, which the world is mostly made of.
Also, the cat is out of the bag on that one. Anyone with rudimentary docker skills can create and deploy an open source anonymous social media site in minutes.

Mom and Pop need to donate a million bucks to Trump's political fund like Apple did.

Cincinnati style chili is good if you use really really fine cheese on top that melts the moment it hits the spaghetti.

Folks with more wealth and education can move more easily, and that splits D/R 50/50 pop wise.
It is the poor who will be most screwed. Poverty is a millstone around one's neck in more ways than one. For one, it prevents easy movement as they live paycheck to paycheck.

One of the reasons FEMA exists is to stop internal immigration in the US every time there is a natural disaster.
Want to depopulate Southern US states? This is one way to do it.

The US needs max wages, max compensation, and ban founders who take their companies public from owning more than ~5% of the total stock issued.

One of the biggest things tbh is finding active nazi social media accounts and getting them banned.

Yeah, but the NYT did not use their main social media account to promote 70% fluff until Trump.

The hypothetical Eastern Oregon rare earth mine is 100 miles from the nearest rail line.
America would have to build a 100 mile long rail line first.

This looks more and more like the 1973-1979 economic malaise period for the dollar; however, back then the Ford/Carter admins had competent diplomatic staff.
Alliances and treaties require trust/stability. This admin has squandered America's image in both. It is going to be worse than the 1970's.

Iran has enough missiles pointed at Arabian oil production facilities to halt production for years.
It would make the 1970's OPEC-led oil embargo and the 1979 Iranian Revolution look tame; and back then there was a professional, strategic diplomatic team at the State Dept.
Not today.

We need to build denser, everywhere.
We literally cannot afford the suburbs, they are a net drag on our economy because of infrastructure costs and young family flight. The average age has gone from the 30's to the 50's in some areas.

This is what happens when the Trump admin is solely comprised of craven idiotic toadies who always think they are the smartest person in the room.
It is like when Lex Luthor assembled the Injustice League and they all thwarted each other's villain plans.

Intergenerational living among Americans has quadrupled in the past ~30-40 years. Mostly because of immigration but housing prices are starting to move even Gen-X adult children into their Baby Boomer parents homes.
The American dream of independent living after 18 is dead for many.

If we could rewrite the Constitution we would be electing; at the very least, the AG, the FBI director, and SCOTUS to 10 year terms.
Current US unitary executive power has no protections against the nefarious or insane.

Almost overnight the black markets for drugs online on the dark web are coming back.
Trump says he wants to stop drugs coming into this country but he is going to make it more likely.
comment in response to

Baby Boomers; for sure, are getting a wake up call as their Gen-X adult children move back in with them.
The US has already quadrupled intergenerational living from the 1990's because of rising house prices.
With a crash, get used to being at home with your parents, grandparents, and cousins.

The DNC's ability to sway suburbanites who aren't dire conservatives - but almost always vote Republican - has been successful maybe three times in the past 24 years.
It is costly as it means less attention to rural and urban demographics, which have the most non-voters to turn out.

There are vibe coders on Fiverr now.
Why learn code when fancy highfalutin words spoken to AI do job cheap? No brainer.

We still have no idea if the creator of Bitcoin is out there with a massive chunk of Bitcoin that they could use to upend the entire Bitcoin chain.
This is utterly foolish.

I ate some vegan eggs in an "omelette" recently and I would not recommend, I could not stop farting for 10+ hours, it was a living nightmare.
I could not even sleep, never before in my life had farts been dread inducing. Give me real eggs.
