Jordan Peterson just wants dudes to make their bed in the morning. Nbd it’s gonna be ok
If that’s all he said that would be fine with his other 9 rules
I learned that a long time ago as a trick yourself getting in a working mood early in the day
Yeah those es&s machines were truly terrible
I mean they did some. Dems should have had a majority without Georgia. A mix of Green Party and pelosi put an end to that
@Dedkraken It is what it is now. Harris may be the most powerful person on the planet now. This is definitely going to be the most powerful executive branch we have ever had.
Harris doesn’t have any more power than another senator if anything less. Executive branches have had far more power
Harris is now the deciding vote in the Senate, she isn't a figurehead. She has been labeled as the most left Senator. They have the House. I'm guessing 100 days of spent political capital and then Nancy kicks off the 25 amendment. Harris becomes POTUS and some other unsavory person gets VP.
The more votes you have in the senate the broader bills you can pass without full support of every last senator. Easier to pass bills and defeat filibusters gives the executive more power. Tie breaking votes is a consolation cookie not a grand political power
Whoever claims she is the most left senator belongs in a mental health hospital
Well that is most mainstream news organizations then.
Mainstream news consider Sanders the furthest left. Harris is fairly right on Warren
You can argue that differently on several points.
I'm not saying she is though.
There’s some lip service always paid to progressives about what a bold progressive choice the VP is followed by the actually moderate candidate turning around and ignoring the left for 4 - 8 years. A honeymoon period if you will. This isn’t serious analysis
Personally, I think she does whatever is politically expedient.
She picked up the most popular progressive policies to get votes and when Biden asked immediately dropped them again. There’s a handful of senators that actually believe in the policies that wouldn’t
I understand that, and Biden has said as much. I am not sure how well the progressive base will take this though. It all comes down to how the progressive base reacts and the admin reacting to them.
Someone like Sanders wouldn’t even pretend to stop supporting them. I think Warren would lie about being moderate and switch once potus. Kamala I don’t think would fight for core progressive policy if she was potus today unless she thought it could get votes
I agree, but public pressure is real. I think we are going back to a GWB and Obama era of overseas policy.
100%
Bush 2.0
Congratulations Biden voters you voted for the establishment
Hopefully they can do better than that but at least no more Trump nonsense 😂
Thanks. We're not displeased with not Trump.
Yea. No wars and a good economy is soooo overrated
Who needs more jobs
We need more govt dependency
Everything Trump touched economically failed. It’s fortunate he didn’t have the experience to do much of anything
Like Giving money to HBCUs and his efforts to the black community.
Steel manufacturing is suffering oh I know let’s drive up the price of steel with tariffs. Oh no we are losing jobs. Well tariffs are fun let’s try doing 2 trillion in economic damage in a trade war with China. Let’s take a dump on trade deals.
Steel manufacturing is suffering because of the dems and Rinos my guy
Everything that went wrong economically had Trumps grimy child fingerprints all over it
Everything that went right was in spite of him
Well to be fair China has been taking a 💩 on international trade deals for some time.
Obama is out international trade deal overlord
Hard to have a trade war when you are a service based, goods consuming economy when you have been selling off your means of production for 50 years to the nation you plan on having the war with.
It is like self imposing sanctions.
Trump wanted to renegotiate NAFTA making a worse deal with the US in exchange for putting 230 in trade deals to protect tech companies and stop congress from changing it. If that doesn’t shoot in red flags of incompetency don’t know what to tell you
You don’t see any red flags of incompetency is Biden/ Kamala ?
