Conservatives are not good with nuance. You didn’t read the link did you? There is a vast difference between the Black Lives Matter organization and the Black Lives Matter protesters. Like Oscarlomax stated, most of the Black Lives Matter protesters are just feed up with black people being mistreated by the police, they are not marching for socialism or Marxism, they just want the mistreatment to end. You are attributing false motives to those protesters to scare people. As you said though, time will tell because odds are very good that we will have a President elect Biden In short order.

BLM does not have anywhere near the influence that some people on this site thinks it does. https://fee.org/articles/is-black-lives-matter-marxist-no-and-yes/

Nuking the filibuster was due to the record obstruction. How do you think Trump got so many open judicial nominations to fill? I’m guessing that wasn’t spelled out for you on Breitbart though was it? Stop being a lemming.

I find it amusing that some of you are willing to believe Qanon, but not Vox. That’s exactly what Trump has been pushing for, a bunch of lemmings willing to take him at his every word. “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears, it was their final, most essential command.” For the record, I think Meat72 nailed it.

People are getting reinfected, the virus is also mutating, don’t put your money on herd immunity being reached anytime soon. https://www.vox.com/2020/7/12/21321653/getting-covid-19-twice-reinfection-antibody-herd-immunity

Pay attention Einstein, I’ll spell it out for you. Due to Republican obstruction, a 60 vote Senate majority was needed to pass any legislation, Obama had that for 59 days, not 2 years. I”ll even provide a link for you because I’m guessing you are not very good with the google machine. He got much needed healthcare legislation passed, everything else was obstructed, everything. Republican dipshits like you then tried to blame him for the slowed growth that they caused. GRASP THAT!!!! https://www.huffingtonpost.com/jennifer-m-granholm/debunking-the-myth-obamas_b_1929869.html

James, how much of the slower gdp growth under Obama do you attribute to the fact that Boehner, McConnell and everyone else in the gop Congress blocked and obstructed every piece of legislation that he wanted to pass to quicken the recovery? We had basically 8 years of gop obstruction and the subsequent blaming of Obama for lack of progress. https://washingtonmonthly.com/2015/02/01/a-walk-down-memory-lane-on-republican-obstruction/

Dream Palace is apparently still open if you are desperate enough and okay with getting ripped off. I’m not sure about the other nude/non-alcohol clubs in town though? Anybody?

Nah, it’s Biden vs Putin and sure as fuck not voting for Putin. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/14/trumps-totalitarian-streak-hits-overdrive/

It feels like I’ve heard these red scare tactics before, like in every Presidential election ever. https://youtu.be/6IavxgMZA-0

Arizona Bar owners are taking their case to the Arizona Supreme Court. Too bad for them that Ducey has packed that court with his flunkies. https://kjzz.org/content/1599941/bar-owners-claim-duceys-emergency-powers-are-unconstitutional

Holy shit, I agree with ime. What is Trump's plan to address that? Papi, you should be more concerned with out drift into authoritarianism under Trump than a not so likely drift into Marxism under Biden. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/06/26/opinion/sunday/republican-platform-far-right.html https://thebulwark.com/trumps-authoritarian-impulse/

Do you know what else happened right around the time of the spike? MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. Why so quick to blame masked protesters?

^ You must have missed the 12 Democratic debates he just participated in, he more than held his own. https://youtu.be/Ftpc4fwcDfk

Bernie Sanders is not even a Democrat. If he had all that power he wouldn’t have lost 2 Presidential primaries. Despite what right wing media is telling you, the “squad” has also had very little impact on the party. And you are also betting on a completely impotent Republican Party, the party that completely obstructed everything that Obama tried to do over an 8 year period.

Biden is pretty moderate he wouldn’t let them stray into Marxism. Why is democratic socialism always conflated with Marxism btw?

You have been quarantined too long papi.

Oh no, internet tough guy alert, lover of hate speech and full of right wing dogma. Whatever shall I do? Bush was far right, Trump is far right, both are/were disasters. The thing you should be fearing is a second Trump term.

Oh no, Oh no, I’m so scared of Biden, please far right conservatives who previously led us into a deep recession, endless wars and bungled a pandemic, save us from this certain doom!!

This whole thread is a perfect example of why we need to bring back the Fairness Doctrine.

mark, your use of strawmen is top notch. Dems don’t want to abolish the police, they want to reform the police. Dems are open to raising taxes on the rich, given our current Income inequality that sounds reasonable. If continuing the shut down can shorten the pandemic I’m all for it. Your position on China aligns very favorable to well renowned lefty Bernie Sanders.

Most of what Democrats are proposing polls very well, perhaps it’s the conservatives who are out of touch. And since when were Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Arizona become blue states? They, and most of the southern states, are all run by Republicans and the coronavirus is running far more rampant in the south right now than anywhere else.

Don’t blame Trumps incompetence on Democrats, that’s all on him. He ignored the virus for way too long, then rushed to re-open, now we are living with the consequences.

He has a stutter. Has Trump released his medical records btw? Why did he have a late night visit to Walter Reed? Why can’t he drink a glass of water with one hand?
