there's bound to be more than a few solid GOP candidates to take his place

2018-01-17 22:20:01 UTC

from what I saw he was a good guy and he beat the dem in the polls consistently

2018-01-17 22:20:52 UTC

So many fucking Austin Petersen shills in midterm threads is one thing I've definitely noticed

2018-01-17 22:21:49 UTC

Why do conservatives not understand that hispanics tend to vote for bigger government?

2018-01-17 22:21:52 UTC

I wonder why

2018-01-17 22:21:58 UTC

it's ridiculous

2018-01-17 22:22:34 UTC

you have these Bushian retards that think that amnesty= future GOP voters as if they'll be gracious or something

2018-01-17 22:22:41 UTC

didn't happen with Reagan

2018-01-17 22:23:40 UTC

and then you have these Petersen shills come in with their fucking gadsden flags

2018-01-17 22:24:31 UTC

I had an argument with one of these people, and the reason they apparently supported Petersen over Hawley was because "Hawley's a McConnell shill for Israel"

2018-01-17 22:25:17 UTC

One thing about /pol/ which is absolutely autistic is some people have such a hard line against Israel that they'll literally support open borders cultural suicide candidates to spite them.

2018-01-17 22:40:01 UTC

yeah, that's stupid. There's little one can do at the moment to break AIPAC's influence. A pro-Israel Republican losing to an open borders Democrat would harm us much more than the opposite happening, because one more pro-Israel politician won't change anything whereas one more open borders SJW pandering Democrat can do a lot of damage

2018-01-17 22:40:42 UTC

the Israel thing is such a fucking small one it's painful

2018-01-17 22:41:15 UTC

the real big Israel issue is apparently there's a lot of Israeli dual citizens in congress

2018-01-17 22:41:59 UTC

If someone were to make a sort of anti-conflict of interest bill which made it to where you had to denounce that citizenry, that'd be good

2018-01-17 22:42:09 UTC

overall though, it's not as much of a priority

2018-01-17 22:42:37 UTC

Israel gets in the way in the Mid-East, but it's not as monumental as people make it.

2018-01-17 22:43:09 UTC

I say let the Nehlens little by little chip away at its influence as they become more prominent, then we'll start asking these questions.

2018-01-17 22:43:59 UTC

lol we've had two shills save the thread from being archived today

2018-01-17 22:44:22 UTC

hmm

2018-01-17 22:44:32 UTC

I'm thinking of rewriting the OP

2018-01-17 22:44:37 UTC

wtf are dems /ourguy/

2018-01-17 22:44:39 UTC

/pol/ is more for online activism

2018-01-17 22:44:52 UTC

I'm all ears

2018-01-17 22:45:02 UTC

current /ptg/ thread only has 138 posters

2018-01-17 22:45:18 UTC

that's going to have practically 0 impact if we have them all go out door-to-door

2018-01-17 22:45:57 UTC

whereas 138 posters can easily reach 10,000 people each --> 1,380,000

2018-01-17 22:46:02 UTC

so more focus on online psyops is what you're suggesting?

2018-01-17 22:46:03 UTC

using the Internet

2018-01-17 22:46:05 UTC

yeah

2018-01-17 22:46:43 UTC

sounds like a good idea

2018-01-17 22:47:13 UTC

also, we should closely monitor spaces like /r/BlueMidterm2018

2018-01-17 22:47:18 UTC

Daily Kos, Democratic Underground

2018-01-17 22:47:34 UTC

the left is miles ahead of the right in terms of online organization

2018-01-17 22:47:58 UTC

maybe gather evidence in case they decide to conspire in bussing or something?

2018-01-17 22:48:11 UTC

the American right is sadly still mostly comprised of boomers (arguably the left is as well)

2018-01-17 22:48:21 UTC

yeah

2018-01-17 22:48:25 UTC

Is bussing even illegal though ?

2018-01-17 22:48:40 UTC

If it isn't, we should try to get the GOP to fund bussing of their own

2018-01-17 22:48:40 UTC

when you do it to multiple polling stations yeah lol

2018-01-17 22:48:46 UTC

oh, yeah

2018-01-17 22:49:01 UTC

I heard that Trump would have won New Hampshire and Nevada were it not for illegal bussing

2018-01-17 22:49:13 UTC

definitely NH, possibly NV

2018-01-17 22:49:31 UTC

I don't care about HIM winning those states as much as the senate seats.

2018-01-17 22:49:36 UTC

also, I wonder if there was any fraud in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania

2018-01-17 22:49:47 UTC

the margins were really thin

2018-01-17 22:49:51 UTC

from what I've seen those states are clean

2018-01-17 22:50:05 UTC

I also wonder if Trump really did win the popular vote in reality if you subtract all the voter fraud away

2018-01-17 22:50:11 UTC

MI does paper ballots exclusively, and they recounted votes in WI

2018-01-17 22:50:24 UTC

(especially given the fact that Hillary somehow did better in California than Obama in 2012 while performing worse in every other state)

2018-01-17 22:50:38 UTC

didn't the Wisconsin recount reveal even more votes for Trump

2018-01-17 22:50:39 UTC

This is why I suggest strict federal voter ID legislation

2018-01-17 22:51:06 UTC

the fact that the Rs didn't try that when they had so much legislative power in the Bush era fucking astounds me

2018-01-17 22:51:43 UTC

Bush Republicans are pretty much establishment stooges though

2018-01-17 22:51:55 UTC

and Bush was a "welcome hispanics into the GOP" kind of guy

2018-01-17 22:52:21 UTC

Fair enough, but you'd think they'd care about their own political capital enough to do voter ID legislation

2018-01-17 22:52:46 UTC

If they want to make it a "hispanics welcome" party, they could have at least pushed voter ID

2018-01-17 22:53:17 UTC

They've known about this kind of stuff for fucking decades, and no one does anything about it

2018-01-17 22:54:14 UTC

Closest thing I've seen is the Kobach commission, and it was disbanded recently

2018-01-17 22:54:50 UTC

Even if most states didn't comply, they had the rolls from NH and NV I think, they could have made a good case right there and then.

2018-01-17 22:55:30 UTC

For Christ's sake I hope that 4d chess shit is real or this is going to be fucking terrible

2018-01-17 23:35:11 UTC

excuse me

2018-01-17 23:36:04 UTC

this dot map shows the political and racial demographics of the US

2018-01-17 23:39:01 UTC

all these small, white towns in Minnesota-8 make the district ripe for the taking

2018-01-17 23:58:31 UTC

good. we should have info like this for when the next general is posted

2018-01-18 00:21:53 UTC

what are your thoughts on this movement

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/399676530394923010/403343201655848963/New_California.jpg

2018-01-18 00:22:06 UTC

I support it

2018-01-18 00:22:29 UTC

yeah, it's been really picking up steam in the media recently

2018-01-18 00:22:55 UTC

not sure if this or State of Jefferson would be better though

2018-01-18 00:23:24 UTC

tbh they should call the east side "california" and the west side "American Nuclear Testing Zone"

2018-01-18 00:47:29 UTC

I like it, Just wish the borders where a bit better

2018-01-18 00:48:06 UTC

notice something?

2018-01-18 00:49:13 UTC

the redder areas are smaller, whiter towns
that's Trump's base
don't forget,
small, white towns

2018-01-18 01:52:49 UTC

their website is straining from all the traffic

2018-01-18 01:53:04 UTC

I wonder if Trump deliberately did this to let the GOP Establishment know who holds the real power

2018-01-18 01:53:34 UTC

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/399676530394923010/403366275323002891/GOPtraffic.jpg

2018-01-18 01:53:47 UTC

hopefully it conveys the reality check they need

2018-01-18 01:54:03 UTC

they've been sitting on their ass when it comes to voter turnout

2018-01-18 01:54:56 UTC

the fact that their shitty website is crashing because of Trump should remind them who gave them the power they currently have

2018-01-18 01:56:55 UTC

new thread

2018-01-18 02:11:44 UTC

I'm not reading into it that deeply

2018-01-18 02:16:47 UTC

certainly symbolic though

2018-01-18 03:14:17 UTC

There is a special election on Tuesday, January 23rd for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives 35th District. Don't forget to vote!

2018-01-18 05:43:44 UTC

It's so annoying we have to do the job of the RNC for them

2018-01-18 22:57:35 UTC

We need to maximize the white vote

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/399676530394923010/403684375398580246/white_dems.png

2018-01-18 23:05:38 UTC

whens the next race?

2018-01-18 23:05:56 UTC

23rd, Pittsburgh

2018-01-18 23:06:13 UTC

Democrat control, but it's harrowed Rust Belt territory

2018-01-18 23:06:29 UTC

Well let's see if we can't spin that around

2018-01-18 23:06:39 UTC

on Facebook under the 'Current Headlines' section I saw this dumb MSM post about how Trump is 'scrambling' and 'panicking' because he's campaigning for the GOP candidate in that seat

2018-01-18 23:06:51 UTC

is he really?

2018-01-18 23:06:55 UTC

fucking amazing

2018-01-18 23:07:05 UTC

let me make the new general btw

2018-01-18 23:07:08 UTC

there's a reason to be concerned
