  1. Yes. Because they didn’t blow up the filibuster. And they negotiated with the Republican leadership before and during the shutdown. They also didn’t engage in relentless insults, violate the Hatch act, or post weird, racist AI videos from the white house account moments after meetings with the minority leadership.
  2. This is such a potato party
  3. I can’t imagine being good enough for that to make a difference, but I guess that’s the difference between 35 years and 8 weeks.
  4. I’m against shutdowns 100% of the time. This is no exception. That said, I didn’t stop understanding strategy because of my preferences. The Republicans have given the Democrats no reason to do anything other than this. So here we are.
  5. I’m not going to be pulled off topic here, but you should know that she and her office worked to obstruct efforts to do that very thing, instead trying to shove the horse back in the barn. As for the rest of the post, which you did not respond to and primarily dealt with her ability to understand the electorate and win votes, res ipsa liquitur. She was a good appointee but is not a talented or skilled politician. She’s just another example of affluent lefties trying to make fetch happen.
  6. Democrats need to stop caring so much about what Republicans say about them. They don’t seem to understand that Republicans are preaching to the choir. Democrats need to preach to their own choir.
  7. Because of my injury I couldn’t do anything but pitch, chip and putt for the last 3 weeks. So I did nothing but pitch, chip and putt, 5 days a week on average, for at least an hour, for the last three weeks. It should not be a surprise, therefore, that my pitching, chipping and putting has improved radically in the last three weeks. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.
  8. Maybe, but considering she underperforms basically every other Democrat she shares a ballot with, it’s hard to say otherwise. The reasons why are very different, but it reminds me of Hillary Clinton and Ted Cruz- a politician who the majority in their state can basically live with in office or thinks they serve a purpose, but there’s not much affection there. She should have stayed in the appointee lane like Samantha Power.
  9. Wildcat’s been looking at too little data

  11. Correction: nobody *likes* her less
  12. Because she’s one of the most toxic and inept politicians I’ve ever seen and played a bigger role than anyone outside the Biden family in getting Donald Trump elected. She consistently underperforms other Democrats in her home state and nationally in polling, and her numbers get worse as you go further into communities Democrats need to win. Nobody dislikes Elizabeth Warren less than Democrat and D-lean unaffiliated voters in her own state. Not surprisingly then, her influence on the rest of the party has been a disaster. More than any other single person she is responsible for alienating tech from the Democratic establishment (not exclusively but in particular with her absurd war on bitcoin), and that played a decisive role in Trump’s victory in November. I never thought we would see a politician more disinterested in the reality of electoral calculus than Hillary Clinton, but Warren managed to surprise me.
  13. Caving for Medicaid and Obamacare subsidies now would be like picking up pennies in front of the steamroller. Republicans chose not to negotiate. Again this isn’t good for the country, but they did this and they don’t get to do that. Democrats shouldn’t be making offers because they would be negotiating against themselves. They need to wait until they see something that gives them more than they had before, and even then only deliver the votes if Johnson or Vance gets on the horn and announces that MasterBlaster runs Bartertown.
  14. Diminish the darkness? You?
  15. Or, they can bring an acceptable bill to Schumer and Jeffries.

  17. A few months ago I was out later than usual and saw a very attractive, very well built blond in her early 20’s wearing a red MAGA hat, white tank and cutoffs with boots. She had forearm tats and was a smoking a cigarette. I was repelled by her hat but went in for a closer look because something seemed off. Turns out I was wrong. Her hat actually said “TRUMP VOTERS CAN SUCK MY DICK”
  18. Yesterday on the Ryder Cup thread, I said the US could still win if Mike Pence had the courage, and one of our delicate friends responded that “it will all be over for you soon” Serious business
  19. He’s realizing his hand isn’t as strong as he thought. Schumer and Jeffries need to go all in and stop making offers.
  20. So you’re going back to 2017? Go ahead and post the all-time graph. If your point is that scarce, low elasticity , highly differentiated goods that are both produced slower than the population grows and also more slowly than the money supply expands tend to be good long term investments, I agree.
