A different bill with that included was blocked in the senate

2020-02-18 21:57:28 UTC

Trump separately did an EO

2020-02-18 21:57:31 UTC

he passed with an executive order

2020-02-18 21:57:35 UTC

he bypassed the senate

2020-02-18 21:57:48 UTC

cuz they are rinos

> “I don’t know if you have had the misfortune of having health economists tell you about Danish cement,” said Amanda Starc, an associate professor of strategy at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern, one of several scholars who mentioned a paper with a punny name: “Government-Assisted Oligopoly Coordination? A Concrete Case.”

> Everybody loves the Danish concrete example!” said Matthew Grennan, an assistant professor of health care management at Wharton, who has studied the effects of price transparency on hospital purchases.

> The Danish government, in an effort to improve competition in the early 1990s, required manufacturers of ready-mix concrete to disclose their negotiated prices with their customers. Prices for the product then rose 15 percent to 20 percent.

2020-02-18 21:57:51 UTC

and hate him

2020-02-18 21:58:03 UTC

Lol

2020-02-18 21:58:20 UTC

Who do u guys think the nominee at the end of the primary my current predictions are sanders 50% Bloomberg 15% Biden 5% Warren 5% brokered convention 25%

2020-02-18 21:58:24 UTC

So it’s not a silver bullet, for once in a blue moon I hope it’s struck down by some judge in Hawaii.

2020-02-18 21:58:35 UTC

But I support Trump’s good efforts of increasing FDA generic approval by deregulation

2020-02-18 21:58:38 UTC

buttigeg hopefully

2020-02-18 21:58:41 UTC

And increasing imports from other countries.

2020-02-18 21:59:12 UTC

The abstract
> In 1993 the Danish antitrust authority decided to gather and publish firm‐specific transactions prices for two grades of ready‐mixed concrete in three regions of Denmark. Following initial publication, average prices of reported grades increased by 15–20 percent within one year. We investigate whether this was due to a business upturn and/or capacity constraints, but argue that these seem to have little explanatory power. We conclude that a better explanation is that publication of prices allowed firms to reduce the intensity of oligopoly price competition and, hence, led to increased prices contrary to the aim of the authority.

2020-02-18 21:59:13 UTC

Buttigieg I don’t think he can win his support among minorities is less then 5%

2020-02-18 21:59:21 UTC

Maybe if he can build up support there

2020-02-18 21:59:32 UTC

he will once he has more airtime.e

2020-02-18 21:59:41 UTC

I think Sanders will win the nominee

2020-02-18 21:59:44 UTC

besides it's not like voters actually choose the candidate

2020-02-18 21:59:48 UTC

Yeah anything can happen in this crazy field

2020-02-18 21:59:48 UTC

Unless the Nevada caucus fails lol

2020-02-18 21:59:54 UTC

Which it probably will.

2020-02-18 21:59:55 UTC

Yeah I think sanders has a real good shot

2020-02-18 22:00:00 UTC

sanders would get blown out by trump

2020-02-18 22:00:09 UTC

in this economy especially

2020-02-18 22:00:27 UTC

Yeah I think trump would have a larger margin of victory

2020-02-18 22:00:49 UTC

just name one swing state u think he might lose to bernie?

2020-02-18 22:01:04 UTC

certainly wont be florida with all the Cubans running from communism

2020-02-18 22:01:21 UTC

u think the rust belt like bernie?

2020-02-18 22:01:37 UTC

he barely won new Hampshire with only 5k votes... so sad

2020-02-18 22:01:54 UTC

Yeah I don’t see any I see trump holding Wisconsin Michigan Ohio Florida Pennsylvania in that match up as long as economy stays where it is

2020-02-18 22:02:25 UTC

even a slight recession wouldnt impact him depending on when it starts and how bad it is

2020-02-18 22:03:42 UTC

Yeah

2020-02-18 22:09:04 UTC

I think the only way trump loses is if he makes a key error going up to re election the economy falls jobs fall or if the democratic candidate that wins is in the middle which I don’t see any in the field at the moment there was Yang which was kind of middle but not really Delayne was he was gone really quick Biden can be seen as middle but he is done that leave Brenie Bloomberg Pete Warren Klobuchar none strike me as a middle candidate all have pretty far left policies none as far left as Bernie except maybe Warren

2020-02-19 00:31:55 UTC

Lol

2020-02-19 00:32:23 UTC

That’s an impressive pile of opinions backed by nothing

2020-02-19 00:36:38 UTC

So, Bernie’s base aligns pretty well with WI and MI, not so much with PA

2020-02-19 00:37:12 UTC

His base is uneducated whites and young

2020-02-19 00:48:01 UTC

Young votes don’t show up to the polls

2020-02-19 01:00:51 UTC

I SUPPORT TRUMP!!!

2020-02-19 01:02:04 UTC

I second that @The Official Max

2020-02-19 01:02:57 UTC

Trump 2024

2020-02-19 03:08:15 UTC

2020-02-19 03:22:44 UTC

Capitalism forever

2020-02-19 05:58:48 UTC

We will see the victorious outcome of the republican leadership this November as dems seem to be slipping out of reality. They have called for more investigations into trump in an attempt to derail his campaign as a counter attack to trumps major success as president.

2020-02-19 10:25:26 UTC

I would be okay with zero immigration for 5 yrs followed by very selective and mild immigration for 1 year. then zero for five and so on.

2020-02-19 11:45:45 UTC

@Sophie "Trump is losing his base"
> More Americans now identify as Republican than identify as Democrat
https://news.gallup.com/poll/15370/party-affiliation.aspx

2020-02-19 11:53:49 UTC

I suppose we'd need a stat that compares those who identify as Reps versus those who identify as Trumpists.

2020-02-19 11:54:00 UTC

I doubt Gallup does those though.

2020-02-19 11:57:28 UTC

94% of Reps support Trump.

2020-02-19 11:57:32 UTC

I think that's good enough.

2020-02-19 11:58:00 UTC

Right, but maybe she has a point.

2020-02-19 11:58:11 UTC

Plus, don't forget:

2020-02-19 11:58:17 UTC

❌ to doubt

2020-02-19 11:58:19 UTC

she might have evidence!

2020-02-19 12:00:17 UTC

Hey, it's no laughing matter.

2020-02-19 12:00:26 UTC

You said it yourself: saying one has evidence means they do.

2020-02-19 12:00:42 UTC

So, we just need Sophie to tell us that she has evidence, and then you have to admit she does.

2020-02-19 12:00:51 UTC

You set the standards, bud!

2020-02-19 12:01:06 UTC

“Supersonic” missiles

2020-02-19 12:01:21 UTC

How old is he

2020-02-19 12:01:27 UTC

How old is who?

2020-02-19 12:01:29 UTC

Trump?

2020-02-19 12:01:31 UTC

73

2020-02-19 12:01:35 UTC

It was an expression

2020-02-19 12:01:51 UTC

He said “supersonic” missiles in his speech

2020-02-19 12:02:04 UTC

The amount of plastic surgery he’s had is ridiculous

2020-02-19 12:02:33 UTC

@Vlad And Trump just got a 46% approval rating, highest on 538

2020-02-19 12:58:09 UTC

(Likely & Registered voters)

2020-02-19 12:58:45 UTC

Ya, 'cause across all polls it's significantly lower I imagine.

2020-02-19 12:59:13 UTC

"All polls" is 44.4%

2020-02-19 12:59:22 UTC

Disapproval is 51%.

2020-02-19 12:59:23 UTC

Also, I am sure that it must have been higher at the start of his presidency.

2020-02-19 12:59:29 UTC

Yeah at like the first day

2020-02-19 12:59:32 UTC

It always is.

2020-02-19 12:59:34 UTC

Ever since it's been low, but increasing.

2020-02-19 12:59:47 UTC

On likely voters 50% disapprove, 46% approve

2020-02-19 12:59:49 UTC

That's nuts.

2020-02-19 13:10:24 UTC

The is is easily the best part of one of the polls

2020-02-19 13:10:25 UTC

> And the poll has President Donald Trump's approval rating tied for his all-time high in the NBC News/WSJ survey, while also finding that the most unpopular candidate qualities in a general election are being a** socialist**, being **older than 75 years of age** and having a **heart attack in the past year**.

2020-02-19 13:24:44 UTC

Trump has higher rating than Obama, unfortunately leftist dems think they have the high ground lol. They thought the same in 2016 and lost in a landslide.

2020-02-19 13:25:53 UTC

Money for pardons.

2020-02-19 13:33:30 UTC

@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ lol it’s a well known fact that party registration leans dem. And are you forgetting about that plurality independents group? Seriously learn to read a poll.

2020-02-19 13:33:54 UTC

Yeah but not anymore.

2020-02-19 13:34:06 UTC

Reps are leading registration now.

2020-02-19 13:34:23 UTC

@!GoldenKingship! landslide = 3rd lowest electoral victory in history, biggest popular loss in history

2020-02-19 13:34:31 UTC

@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ where did you hear that?

2020-02-19 13:34:45 UTC

What do you think I tagged you for?

2020-02-19 13:34:47 UTC

That’s not what that means dumbass

2020-02-19 13:34:58 UTC

Jesus Christ you’re a moron

2020-02-19 13:35:08 UTC

And Republicans + Republicans leaner is higher

2020-02-19 13:35:11 UTC

48-44

2020-02-19 13:35:27 UTC

Affiliation is not registration

2020-02-19 13:35:40 UTC

That's one hell of mental gymnastics

2020-02-19 13:35:48 UTC

It’s basic definition...

2020-02-19 13:36:12 UTC

You need to take a look at the crosstabs

2020-02-19 13:36:13 UTC

I'm not interested in semantics, Republicans have more people affiliating with their party than democrats.

2020-02-19 13:36:21 UTC

It’s not semantics

2020-02-19 13:36:47 UTC

Dems have a lead in registration. That, combined with the dismal performance trump has among independents

2020-02-19 13:37:10 UTC

Having a lead in registration is useless if you have more people affiliating as Reps

2020-02-19 13:37:10 UTC

lol

2020-02-19 13:37:15 UTC

Should not cause you to re-examine the prior

2020-02-19 13:37:52 UTC

Independents who vote dem but are not “affiliated” (such as Bernie) are not “useless”

2020-02-19 13:38:19 UTC

You seriously need to learn to read a poll before you start diving into crosstabs

2020-02-19 13:38:28 UTC

Amateur move- this is basic stuff

2020-02-19 13:38:33 UTC

If you're affiliated with a party, you'll be voting for them.

2020-02-19 13:38:43 UTC

It's a rarity someone affiliates with Reps and votes dem.

2020-02-19 13:38:56 UTC

Especially with a President with the highest GOP approval ever.

2020-02-19 13:39:07 UTC

(His approval with independents recently is 42%, one of his bests).

2020-02-19 13:39:53 UTC

Dems don’t need a single republican affiliated vote

2020-02-19 13:40:12 UTC

If reps take all reps, Dems take all Dems, and a majority of independents are voting dem, Dems have a lead

2020-02-19 13:40:51 UTC

Or, for your simpleton brain- 1-1+1=1

2020-02-19 13:40:53 UTC

Your claim was different, "trump has lost his base"

2020-02-19 13:40:58 UTC

So you're shifting goalposts.

2020-02-19 13:40:59 UTC

Yes, he has

2020-02-19 13:41:16 UTC

Hence why there are more Reps than dems and of those 94% support Trump

2020-02-19 13:41:17 UTC

Trump won a lot of independents in 2016

2020-02-19 13:41:21 UTC

He’s lost them

2020-02-19 13:41:35 UTC

He has the same amount of support from indep's as he did in January

2020-02-19 13:41:36 UTC

2017

2020-02-19 13:41:38 UTC

That is a big problem for him

2020-02-19 13:41:51 UTC

Just inaccurate statement

2020-02-19 13:41:58 UTC

> 2017 Jan 20-29 89 42 13

2020-02-19 13:42:04 UTC

Sigh approval ratings are not electoral performance

2020-02-19 13:42:08 UTC

2020 Jan 16-29 94 42 7

2020-02-19 13:42:13 UTC

It’s like talking to a child

2020-02-19 13:42:13 UTC

42 and 42

2020-02-19 13:42:29 UTC

Learn how these questions are asked

2020-02-19 13:42:45 UTC

Ok let me go over this again, 42% of independents approve of Trump. This was the same in January 2017.

2020-02-19 13:42:54 UTC

Where is this "lost" support.

2020-02-19 13:42:55 UTC

Approval is not electoral performance

2020-02-19 13:43:12 UTC

<:political_thinking:583244726040264704>

2020-02-19 13:43:13 UTC

The lost support is the landslides against trump in 2017, 2018, 2019

2020-02-19 13:43:26 UTC

All of which conformed to the generic ballot

2020-02-19 13:43:29 UTC

But the approval ratings suggest otherwise.

2020-02-19 13:43:32 UTC

Which is currently dem +6

2020-02-19 13:43:41 UTC

This is about Trump, not his party.

2020-02-19 13:43:52 UTC

I’m talking about actual votes, not approval ratings

2020-02-19 13:44:01 UTC

The actual votes were back in 2016

2020-02-19 13:44:08 UTC

Anything between then is not a representative.

2020-02-19 13:44:22 UTC

Mhm, the 3 years after 2016 are more recent than 2016 honey

2020-02-19 13:44:25 UTC

Of course they are

2020-02-19 13:44:29 UTC

Because we get this

2020-02-19 13:44:30 UTC

> "Nearly two-thirds of the Trump voters who said they voted for Democratic congressional candidates in 2018 say that they’ll back the president against all three named opponents."

2020-02-19 13:44:32 UTC

Trump was very much “on the ballot”

2020-02-19 13:44:37 UTC

...yes

2020-02-19 13:44:38 UTC

No, he wasn't.

2020-02-19 13:44:42 UTC

His party was.

2020-02-19 13:44:44 UTC

Let’s walk through that statement

2020-02-19 13:44:51 UTC

Nearly 2/3rds

2020-02-19 13:44:52 UTC

This is what people said in 2010 about Obama.

2020-02-19 13:44:56 UTC

That is catastrophic for trump

2020-02-19 13:45:07 UTC

Not really, combined with the people who *didn't* vote.

2020-02-19 13:45:10 UTC

That's a good sign.

2020-02-19 13:45:10 UTC

2012 also conformed to the generic ballot

2020-02-19 13:45:45 UTC

That means a full 1/3rd of people who voted for trump in 2016 but voted for a dem in 2018 are definitely voting against him in 2020

2020-02-19 13:45:50 UTC

Not exactly

2020-02-19 13:45:53 UTC

That is not a good sign for trump- it’s a sign of...

2020-02-19 13:45:55 UTC

Many of those haven't made their mind up.

2020-02-19 13:45:57 UTC

HIS BASE SHRINKING

2020-02-19 13:46:02 UTC

No, literally that’s what that means

2020-02-19 13:46:10 UTC

If his base is shrinking, party affiliations would be going the inverse way.

2020-02-19 13:46:16 UTC

That’s not accurate.

2020-02-19 13:46:18 UTC

His approval would be falling.

2020-02-19 13:46:27 UTC

Again, no evidence to support that

2020-02-19 13:46:32 UTC

A rising approval means there's something wrong with your hypothesis.

2020-02-19 13:46:41 UTC

No, it really doesn’t

2020-02-19 13:46:53 UTC

It just means you don’t understand what approval rating is measuring

2020-02-19 13:46:56 UTC

Well it clearly does, more people approve. And damn approval ratings are good predictors of wins

2020-02-19 13:47:02 UTC

Approval of Trump, simply put.

2020-02-19 13:47:09 UTC

Lmao

2020-02-19 13:47:25 UTC

a. Approval ratings are not indicative of wins right now

2020-02-19 13:47:34 UTC

They've been for ages?

2020-02-19 13:47:37 UTC

b. His approval rating is super low

2020-02-19 13:47:41 UTC

Not till about March

2020-02-19 13:47:43 UTC

>49%

2020-02-19 13:47:45 UTC

>Super low

2020-02-19 13:47:50 UTC

...yes

2020-02-19 13:47:56 UTC

I'm pretty sure all he needs is 45% to win.

2020-02-19 13:48:02 UTC

44% is a more accurate number

2020-02-19 13:48:03 UTC

on 538 that's 46% lol

2020-02-19 13:48:09 UTC

How is "44%" an accurate number?

2020-02-19 13:48:15 UTC

Aaaand no president has won with under 50%

2020-02-19 13:48:22 UTC

Yes, we'll see that go above soon.

2020-02-19 13:48:34 UTC

It's trending upwards, I mean have you seen 538 recently?

2020-02-19 13:48:37 UTC

<#542037236053442561>

2020-02-19 13:48:50 UTC

538 has him at 44

2020-02-19 13:49:02 UTC

46%*

2020-02-19 13:49:07 UTC

You're not using registered or likely voters.

2020-02-19 13:49:16 UTC

and an dis-approval of 50%

2020-02-19 13:49:33 UTC

You’re mixing metrics dude

2020-02-19 13:49:36 UTC

Jesus Christ

2020-02-19 13:49:45 UTC

Not really, I like using this since it's closer to the true value.

2020-02-19 13:49:55 UTC

Then you have to do an apples to apples comparison

2020-02-19 13:50:00 UTC
