Polarization of the two parties

[Isaac]

Exactly what AB said. The "problem" the democrats have with b.b. is that , hey, sometimes a meme or a bit of satirical joking is just, incredibly effective at making a point. They are so good the democrats feel threatened by it

That's why I used them so much

now i understand why you're such an influential force around here AB.

why would that be the case? none of it is true!

People in power do not like to be mocked. Tyrants like the Democrats find a way to stifle you. These days Biden just has a minion call up FB or Twitter or Google and they take care of it for him. When that fails, he tosses you in jail.

Given the debacle in Afghanistan, who ended up in the brig? Not the generals who committed treason, the Major who questioned what they did. Talk about abuse of power. We still have political prisoners who have been locked up for 10 months for TRESPASSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Google and YouTube will cut off ad money for climate change deniers

Ads will still be allowed on climate-related topics.

In the USA, it seems like the two major parties have an agreement to take it in turns to have a bash at being president. The new one always cancels the previous ones policies or laws as their first job, then goes on to make a pigs ear of the country.
Don't worry Pat, your heartthrob idiot will hopefully not be back.

You mean, as opposed to, your totally normal prime minister - this guy? Are mirrors hard to come by there?

a doctor of mine told me that conservatives generally are more religious than liberals, care about tax breaks for corporations and such. and liberals tend to care more about social issues and equality and are not religious. is all of this true? I havve no idea, since I don't follow the stuff.

The Democrats invoke God quite frequently (even Nancy does it) but not when they are pushing partial birth abortion. So, I would say they give religion lip service when they think it will help them but their real god is power. The parties have standard talking points on which they hang their differences but sadly both parties have gone all in for big government and open borders just for different reasons.

The actual difference between the parties is that one wants total control over your body, your money, your children, your life. Notice now that you can't work to support your family if you don't submit!!! The Constitution be damned! Papa Joe just tells big business and the media to enforce a "law" that he cannot pass. The Democrats want to own you and their lure is "free" stuff but they have no problem bringing down the hammer if you don't submit The cancel culture is also hard at work to enforce the new normal in case big business and the government somehow miss you. The other party still thinks freedom is important but not enough to stand up and fight for it. They are the feckless pieces of dog dodo who constantly let us down.

Schumer is simply batshit crazy. McConnell caved and brought 11 Republicans with him to the "showers" and Schumer points out their capitulation in a fiery speech. What happened to the progressive mantra that stupid people shouldn't breed? These two ae the "leaders" of the Senate????? We may as well have the Bolsheviks and Tsar Nicholas. But then people who don't read history are doomed to repeat it.

they ALL ARE. schumer is nothing special. anybody who argues pennies over the trillions that actually matter is OBVIOUSLY fu**ing nuts.

Does a potential presidential candidate have to be a serving senator and be selected to run by their party? Or can it be anyone off the street with no political or government experience? (As long as they have the money to pay the running costs - or does their party foot the bill)

A Presidential candidate must be: A natural born citizen (U.S. citizen from birth) At least 35 years old and. A U.S. resident (permanently lives in the U.S.) for at least 14 years.

So they don't need to be a serving senator or politician. It can be anyone who fits the criteria you outlined. Two criteria you forgot to mention is that you need to be mentally deranged or suffer from dementia.
Seriously though, any American can do it within those guidelines. In other words, go from a normal citizen to being the most powerful person on the planet. That's frightening.

No, but it helps!

No, but it helps!

Actually, Abraham Lincoln is one of the best examples of that and was also the best thing that ever happened.
