"I used to get things done by saying please. Now I dynamite 'em out of my path."
-Huey Long
especially the DOE
Honestly we should just try to sideline the hardcore fiscal conservatives
It doesn't do anything
Well say goodbye to the House Freedom Caucus then @Deleted User
The ones who just fuck us over by just being a caricature of the greedy Republican who just wants to take away old peoples pensions
At least don't cut funding for k-12 education
"A mob is coming here in six months to hang the other ninety-five of you damned scoundrels, and I'm undecided whether to stick here with you or go out and lead them."
-Huey Long giving a speech on the Senate floor
But that's the states job and always have been. The Department of education is like fucking useless
like they did in Kansas
The libertarian wing does nothing for us
Well
Rather Libertarian vote for us then vote 3rd party
Ima eat
If we have to choose between the working class voters
and the libertarian lot
I know which one i'd go for
@zakattack04 Most people don't know jackshit what the DOE does and when they hear Republicans want to get rid off it and cut their funds they think it will hurt their local schools
because it won't effect local schools
Most people are dumb and that doesn't change
It's not particularly productive to talk about politics at the national level,
let's be a little bit more specific here on where we're talking about
Let's talk about WV for a bit, I feel this is central location at them moment,
I suspect Blankenship's surge is based on a continued resentment against everyday Washington politics
When Republican leadership attempts to thwart them, it only betters his odds
Well, what is there to say?
I have no clue what'll happen if we get this psychopath in, but who knows if that'll happen?
What I think the GOP should do is keep their heads out of elections
It's amazing how they haven't noticed the correlation
Yes, only start funding when it reaches general
Yeah any other state I would say he would lose, but this is WV so idk
Whenever they try to dictate who should be the nominee, there is a strong backlash from the base
Hell, even then there's not much good that happens, with the "Nancy Had a Little Lamb" nonsense
There definitely needs to be an apparatus that isn't linked to the party but still endorses certain candidates
Butt ocasionally you get guys like Todd Aiken or Roy Moore who blow a easily winnable race
I think we'd probably need an organization that vets their people properly
But isn't a detached washington establishment
We just gotta hope Trump shoots down Blankenship in a tweet before the election and calls him a murderer or something.
If Blankenship wins and Trump didn't endorse Jenkins beforehand,
the blame goes on Trump
