Why does my state keep running the same Democrats?
It’s very weird
@Rhodesiaboo it's the same thing for both parties because that's the nature of political office
It takes a hell of a lot of THANKLESS work to run for office
I honestly wish that trump could get a new party created.
But that would never work.
Not in america's system.
which means that the people who have already been politicians for many years tend to be the ones who will go for higher offices
My State has a lot of liberal newspapers
@WildRooHuntingTutorials that'd be a bad idea tbh
They’re trying to dumb us down
I know.
What would help is to improve what we've got
It would never work.
Unfortunately if the republican part branded itself as American Nationalist it would scare normies and mainstreamers away.
Yeah
And a large percent of the republican voting base are fiscal conservatives.
I,E centrists.
imagine the ramifications for the midterms if the Seth Rich murder was exposed to the mainstream
SHOTS FIRED IN THE WHITE HOUSE
MAJOR HAPPENING
SUICIDE BY GUN
Oh fuck man that's intense
it's hard to think of a better place to give your suicide attention
With one day left in TX early voting, Dems have cast 45k more ballots than Reps (the first time since 2006). In past cycles, the partisan breakdown of TX primary ballots roughly predicted the split in general elections. Could indicate a close race between Beto & cruz
hmm
early voting though, regular voting for the Texas primaries haven't happened yet
it's still an indicator of Democrat enthusiasm
uh huh
McSally just went live before going into a plane
looks like she likes to highlight her air force background
WASHINGTON — A sizable portion of the American population has been convulsing with outrage at President Trump for more than a year. Millions of people who previously took only mild interest in politics have participated in protests, fumed as they stayed riveted to news out of Washington and filled social media accounts once devoted to family updates and funny videos with furious political commentary.
Yet public life on the whole has remained surprisingly calm. A significant factor in keeping the peace has surely been anticipatory catharsis: The widespread expectations of a big Democratic wave in the coming midterm elections are containing and channeling that indignation, helping to maintain order.
What will happen if no such wave materializes and that pressure-relief valve jams shut?
