@Den yeah, emphasize the fact that Saccone ignored our advice and LOST
that's the most important thing...oh, and TELL HIM TO TELL EVERY OTHER R POLITICIAN HE KNOWS THAT THEY SHOULD NOT CAMPAIGN LIKE SACCONE
The issue is the Rs don't flood the fields where they should
They should've had a good electable candidate over in IL-3, we got a neo-nazi.
@🎃Boo-ton🎃 Even worse, it actually influences America's foreign policy in a negative direction with regard to Russia; not a single Nay from the Democrats!
so basically
1. Talk about how Saccone ignored our advice and lost, then emphasize that he shouldn't do it that way, and that he should tell all the other GOP politicians he knows to NOT campaign that way
2. The 'Steve King' question (not sure what this is
3. Rallying Amish voters
4. the importance of Immigration as an issue to GOP voters
These people are so stupid
This will not get them reelected
Target abortion actually
The Steve King question is "Can you restore your civilization with someone else's babies?" Their answer to that lets you know if they actually want to put America First.
They should run on a balanced budget amendment to be honest
This is what got a lot of the current members of congress elected on the anti-obama wave in 2010, balancing the budget, stopping the national debt.
IMO other than job creation and to a lesser extent budgetary balance, Republicans should stay silent on the state level.
Social issues take a higher precedent, especially when they can integrate with economic issues.
For instance, "Balance the budget by cutting abortion funding!" is actually going to be effective.
Abortion shouldn't be overemphasized, but really, to me, immigration isn't really a state issue, even though it can be effective as John Bel Edwards proved in Louisiana.
Yeah, but these omnibus bills where they capitulate on everything don't help them
If you can incorporate it, do that. But you usually can't.
Yeah, the budget bill is just bull.
It's basically "Let's fund abortion to increase the deficit!"
If you want to compromise on economic policy, do it by encouraging families and children.
Call your reps
This thread by the randlet sums it up pretty well:

Yeah, this bill is awful.
Why the fuck are we spending money to destroy weapons
Yeah yeah "muh human rights" but the fuck
We're taking away our own arms stockpile at the cost of the taxpayer
We should've cut military spending, really
The thing with chemical weapons is that you have to spend money to maintain or destroy them.
Otherwise you can accidentally use them on the public
That's fair, but in that case why develop them at all
Some benign diseases, most notably Lyme disease, are actually believed to be the result of US chemical weapons making it out of labs.
And the Arms Race during the Cold War involved building enormous amounts of them just in case we needed a way to destroy, say, a billion people without nukes.
They were actually used until George H.W. Bush, basically.
Lyme disease was basically developed to serve as a nuisance to make enemy troops unable to fight so we could capture them and torture them.
In all likelihood
I have no clue why Trump is putting so much money into the military, the only justifiable reason I could think of is if he's preparing to solidify control and make himself the King of America
