Red Tide

Hold up a second, I have something on the methodology

2018-02-02 04:02:44 UTC  

"The NBC News|SurveyMonkey poll was conducted online from Tuesday, January 30 through Thursday, February 1,
2018"

2018-02-02 04:02:48 UTC

If Trump got assassinated I would only really support Pence if he continued to be a hardliner on immigration.

2018-02-02 04:03:46 UTC  

Yeah

2018-02-02 04:04:07 UTC  

I for one would start lobbying for Donald J. Trump Jr. to be nominated VP ASAP.

2018-02-02 04:04:11 UTC  

my litmus test is:
a) No amnesty
b) No more foreign wars

2018-02-02 04:04:40 UTC  

Don Jr's busy with the company and being a madman on Twitter

2018-02-02 04:05:45 UTC  

the GOP can maintain this momentum by crafting a popular infrastructure bill

2018-02-02 04:06:10 UTC  

the thing is, infrastructure is a Democrat idea

2018-02-02 04:06:15 UTC  

How would the Democrats play into that

2018-02-02 04:06:29 UTC  

it'd help Trump, but Trump's not up for election

2018-02-02 04:06:31 UTC  

i'm not sure what a Republican infrastructure legislation would look like

2018-02-02 04:07:28 UTC  

idk, really it seems universal

2018-02-02 04:07:40 UTC  

more roads, fixed buildings, the nine yards

2018-02-02 04:08:15 UTC  

How do you think a rail line system in the US would work like they have in Europe or Japan?

2018-02-02 04:09:52 UTC  

You pay a ticket price, you go from city to city, high speed.

2018-02-02 04:21:18 UTC  

Infrastructure has always been a more Republican type of spending program.

2018-02-02 04:21:29 UTC  

in what sense

2018-02-02 04:21:38 UTC  

doesn't really seem too partisan to me imo

2018-02-02 04:21:58 UTC  

The WPA and crap did nothing but build statues of naked people and crap, and FDR basically did nothing but minimum wage and welfare crap otherwise.

2018-02-02 04:22:11 UTC  

Then Eisenhower came in and built the Interstate

2018-02-02 04:22:28 UTC  

Then LBJ came in and passed more gibsmedats for the black voters

2018-02-02 04:23:17 UTC  

you're missing the part when kennedy got his head plastered on his motorcade by LBJ et al

2018-02-02 04:23:44 UTC  

Kennedy didn't do anything except tax cuts and Apollo.

2018-02-02 04:24:03 UTC  

anyways, go on

2018-02-02 04:24:13 UTC  

The gap between Republicans and Democrats on space tends to be that Republicans want to actually do shit in space, and Democrats want to play space cadet.

2018-02-02 04:24:42 UTC  

right, we had SDI which was missile defense

2018-02-02 04:24:47 UTC  

The Democrats went to the Moon with Apollo, took 2 steps, and went "wtf my feet are bouncing"

2018-02-02 04:24:51 UTC  

And then went back home

2018-02-02 04:25:05 UTC  

Bush on the other hand proposed a full colonization program with Constellation.

2018-02-02 04:25:09 UTC  

wasn't that '69

2018-02-02 04:26:03 UTC  

anyways, I get what you mean

2018-02-02 04:26:21 UTC  

there's really two types of spending, productive spending and unproductive spending

2018-02-02 04:26:22 UTC  

Yeah, but it was from 1963 to 1969. Nixon cancelled it after 1972 because it wasn't really accomplishing much anymore.

2018-02-02 04:26:35 UTC  

Indeed.

2018-02-02 04:26:55 UTC  

I think in terms of social welfare programs you need a society of potential workers

2018-02-02 04:27:07 UTC  

for that you need more homogenity and the such

2018-02-02 04:28:01 UTC  

otherwise it devolves into degenerates waiting for their checks every months sitting on their asses like in our reality

2018-02-02 04:28:10 UTC  

Indeed.
