Ooo is this like some news and republican ?

Through this shift really started in 1994

I hope i get real news and not fake ones

But the hastert rule, introduced by the Republican speaker Hastert

Is a legislative principle that you do not bring anything to the floor unless you can pass it with only your own party

So it basically was this declaration that control of the house is a winner take all contest

And that no bills would be debated to be compromised on

The other thing is gerrymandering. Both parties do this, it’s absolutely true

But particularly the way democrats naturally cluster, republicans have been much more egregious in this

So since 2010, republican politicians have been more worried about primary challenges from the right than from a general election challenge from the left, and as a result the party has gotten increasingly radical

This has happened on the left too, particularly since trump was elected

AOC and Ayanna Presley were both challengers from the left in deep blue districts

So there’s really no hope for the parties to suddenly start working together without a major re-alignment

Guys guys this whole arguement about Trump is getting kinda tiring

Sure he's an asshole

@Boo The name of this room is trump

But he's but a puppet of the system

If you don’t want to hear a debate about trump

Go to a different room

@Platinum Spark Well when he becomes irrelevant what's gonna happen to this room?

Is it gonna change to is Trump still relevant?

Do we still talk about Trump?

I suspect another room will be created

Weird thing to worry about

There’s a brexit room, what about that

That’s happening at the end of this month

My point exactly

What do we do about those?

Then go argue your point in that room

This room has over a year left

Or maybe 5 but god do i hope that doesn't happen

Lol you and me both

He’s not helping himself by acting like a crazy person

Trump gives me nixon vibes honestly

>gets more incoherent and paranoid

Lol

Nixon was way smarter

And legitimately watergate pales in comparison to Ukraine

GOP Sen. Ron Johnson tells WSJ that the U.S. ambassador to the EU told him in August that the status of aid to Ukraine was tied to Trump’s interest in having Kiev investigate certain matters.

Trump by himself is not the problem. Its that he was able to fool so many voters and there are so many in Congress that will lie and manipulate the system to keep him in office.
