take a look at this

2018-02-06 19:32:28 UTC  

it's the sidebar for /r/BlueMidterm2018

2018-02-06 19:32:43 UTC  

@Extra Crispy the midterm elections are on November 6, 2018

2018-02-06 19:32:53 UTC  

not much time left

2018-02-06 19:32:55 UTC  

but primaries are in the middle of the year, the dates vary according to the state

2018-02-06 19:35:57 UTC  

@Ḁ̢̧̡̝̭̀̓̇̈̑yeExEye̼̘̲ͨͬ anyway, as I was saying, let's have a section for each state

2018-02-06 19:36:13 UTC  

and another main section on the homepage that is similar to the sidebar for /r/BlueMidterm2018

2018-02-06 19:36:19 UTC  

@Red Storm (in NYC) 2: 55, 5: 57, 10: 60

2018-02-06 19:36:27 UTC

2018-02-06 19:48:13 UTC  

let's have a format like this

2018-02-06 19:48:17 UTC  

any thoughts ?

2018-02-06 19:52:00 UTC  

nice

2018-02-06 19:52:34 UTC  

let's make it look a bit fancier if you can though

2018-02-06 19:52:59 UTC  

like this

2018-02-06 19:53:10 UTC  

we don't want to make it look like a website from the 1990s

2018-02-06 19:53:35 UTC  

what about a different font?

2018-02-06 20:01:51 UTC  

What's great is that with all this good news surrounding Trump, no one really cares about the stock market going down now because wages are going up with the tax bill, companies investing, etc

2018-02-06 20:03:17 UTC  

I was getting worried for a while that stocks would be the only thing we could fall back on with the economy, but we have a life raft with the tax bill

2018-02-06 20:08:39 UTC  

Another thing is that a recent harvard-harris poll found that about 2/3 of respondents found that any DACA deal should look like what Trump's proposing (continued protections, wall, end of chain migration and visa lottery)

2018-02-06 20:10:02 UTC  

I agree, I think things are doing great

2018-02-06 20:10:05 UTC  

Meaning, if DACA falls through, it will be on the Democrats as people generally want to have Trump's immigration plan passed. Not to mention the shutdown we're probably getting in 2 days, which didn't work out whatsoever last time.

2018-02-06 20:10:29 UTC  

the majority of americans want immigration to stop

2018-02-06 20:11:26 UTC  

The only way I support a deal is if the "path to citizenship" is extremely rigid and takes a long time, but optically, this is completely sound.

2018-02-06 20:11:34 UTC  

the fact that the dems are willing to shut down the gov't just to keep the illegals around really makes it clear just who they're fighting for

2018-02-06 20:12:17 UTC  

They're fucked whatever they do. The base of the left riots if they so much as shake hands with Trump.

2018-02-06 20:12:47 UTC  

Happened with Pelosi's podium in September, happened with Schumer's apartment in the end of the last shutdown.

2018-02-06 20:13:05 UTC  

They just don't get pragmatism, and it's to our gain in these elections.

2018-02-06 20:14:06 UTC  

I think there's a possibility we can retake the generic ballot in the next few months if things go our way.

2018-02-06 20:15:18 UTC  

Tax bill popularity + the DACA situation + Memo investigations + maybe infrastructure = your Red Storm right there.

2018-02-06 20:15:32 UTC  

definitely

2018-02-06 20:15:44 UTC  

We should keep it up on our side too, make sure to inform the people wherever you can.
