Doesn't matter.

2019-09-16 14:14:49 UTC  

But their policies are more interesting compared to the Republicans

2019-09-16 14:15:06 UTC  

People don't vote on "interesting policies", but on whether they like the candidate

2019-09-16 14:15:12 UTC  

People vote on free shit.

2019-09-16 14:15:18 UTC  

The Democrats are offering free shit.

2019-09-16 14:15:19 UTC  

Some do

2019-09-16 14:15:23 UTC  

Is that simple enough?

2019-09-16 14:15:24 UTC  

*Most do*

2019-09-16 14:15:29 UTC  

If you offer too much free shit, you get a huge backlash

2019-09-16 14:15:45 UTC  

And they're not.

2019-09-16 14:15:51 UTC  

Yang, maybe.

2019-09-16 14:15:53 UTC  

But he's a meme

2019-09-16 14:16:03 UTC  

Yang is the perfect example actually

2019-09-16 14:16:08 UTC  

Even the Dems realize he's offering too much free shit

2019-09-16 14:16:50 UTC  

You don't win a race by only appeasing to a few voting blocks

2019-09-16 14:16:57 UTC  

You also have to make sure you don't piss off all the rest

2019-09-16 14:17:14 UTC  

And there must be no one better than you in the race

2019-09-16 14:17:33 UTC  

The Dems are like chicken right now cause they have no clue what is the best set of policies to run with

2019-09-16 14:17:49 UTC  

And Trump is the wolf

2019-09-16 14:18:42 UTC  

Some Dems even believe it's a good idea to run as "being anti-Trump"

2019-09-16 14:18:51 UTC  

What a bunch of clueless children

2019-09-16 14:19:55 UTC  

^^

I live in the sort of midwest state where working class people generally abhor the democrat's offerings, though frequently kow-tow to their unions who go along with it. It's usually just the welfare-state people in the larger cities that vote for the D.

2019-09-16 15:48:20 UTC  

>Trump is a wolf
he's a bitch that surrounded himself with people with more ambition than him, out of nepotism, and has had to fire most of them because they keep hamstringing his actual goals.

2019-09-16 15:49:45 UTC  

Trump is a legend

2019-09-16 15:50:33 UTC  

he's a notch above mediocre, policywise

2019-09-16 15:52:05 UTC  

he hasn't set the country on fire, but he hasn't gone very far in the other direction

2019-09-16 15:53:39 UTC  

All I can think of off the top of my head that he's done positive is smooth things out with NK and appropriately take advantage of Mexico's new, more cooperative government

2019-09-16 15:53:59 UTC  

nothing really domestic

2019-09-16 15:54:38 UTC  

he hasn't saved any jobs or gone anywhere near an infrastructure bill

2019-09-16 15:54:53 UTC  

Unemployments gone down

2019-09-16 15:55:12 UTC  

I'd have to do some more research on it but I dint think trump has been the worst

2019-09-16 15:55:27 UTC  

unemployment stats are famously malliable

2019-09-16 15:55:39 UTC  

and I just said he's not the worst

2019-09-16 15:55:47 UTC  

And I agree

2019-09-16 15:55:52 UTC  

Not the best

2019-09-16 15:55:55 UTC  

But not the worst

2019-09-16 15:56:01 UTC  

but that doesn't by definition make him the best, just because democrats are a lost cause

2019-09-16 15:56:30 UTC  

I just sais he's not the best

2019-09-16 15:56:31 UTC  

Lol

2019-09-16 15:56:43 UTC  

politics of spite. its how this "lesser of two evils" shit is gotten away with in a modern democracy
