To some degree, you have to admire how Kamala holds dem primary voters in such utter contempt. She thinks they are all basically drooling retards.
That's because most voters are drooling retards and she knows she can get away with saying one thing while doing another.

Does anyone remember the MTV summer roadtrip show Amuck in America? The host was Alan Hunter and some very hot 1980s blonde chick was the cohost. Anyways, I was at Astroworld in '86 when they were visiting Houston. I was interviewed by Alan and the blonde babe whose name I cannot remember.
Anyone remember this show and the Houston episode?

My Nazi comparison complaint: it implies that Nazism is the line. So long as we aren’t gassing people or taking their businesses or whatever, we aren’t the bad guys. How about equality or something like that being the line?
I agree and the comparison quickly turns into a red herring by defenders of the administration. It's an easy distraction that Trumpism vanishes behind once people end up arguing about the historical facts of Nazi Germany.
As I previously said, the Trump administration has done more than enough to be criticized on its own. Trump is buried in a gigantic pile of shit. Drop the comparison to Nazis and just hammer away at the specific illegal and unethical behavior over and over.
Separating children from their parents and locking them up in cages is a crime against humanity.
Evoking "go back to your country" to ethnic minorities in Congress is racist and a slap in the face to the Constitution.
Blatantly race baiting is unacceptable.
Blatantly lining your pockets with tax payer dollars is highly unethical.
Violating the emoluments clause is unethical and illegal.
Violating the Hatch Act is unlawful.
Lying every fucking day is unacceptable.
Keep it simple like Benghazi or her emails.

Necrobump cuz Orange man bad and his supporters are all Nazis! Punch them!
I agree with your sentiment. Comparing Trump and his supporters to Nazis isn't useful, actually it is counterproductive. The comparison comes off as hyperbole and causes people to tune it out.
The Trump administration has committed enough authoritarian acts that it warrants more than enough criticism without having to default to the Nazi label.

Interesting discussion. I think there is some truth to Gen-X favoring individualism and capitalism versus the Boomers and Millennials. Going from the latch key generation to entering the job market right as the landscape shifted away from career longevity to switching jobs every other year. I suspect the 90's Tech Bubble really fucked with a lot of our heads. Get what you can, while you can or get fucked. Anyways, we didn't create the culture that shaped our experiences, that was the generation that preceded us.

Don’t forget how he lamented the decline in manufacturing but made his money doing IT services and processing.
He was also fiercely anti-outsourcing but Perot Systems went all in on the outsourcing model by shipping a lot of jobs to India in the 2000's. The outsourcing was a natural growth for the IT services industry, so that couldn't be prevented. His political positions were not suited for the industry that made him a billionaire. Granted, nobody really knew how all of this would play out back in the day.

This is from an antiwar blog post written about 14 years ago. For those that weren't paying attention back then, Pelosi never grew a backbone. She enabled the Bush administration in their crimes against humanity and she looked the other way when they were shitting all over the constitution. This is who she is and always will be.
Meanwhile, this immoral and disgusting war goes on, and we have to continue living in a Bizarro World where phosphorous isn’t a chemical weapon — except when it is.
Send Pelosi and the cowardly Democrats a message: give her a call, and ask her when she’s going to acquire a backbone: 202-225-4965

Losing their shit is comparing anything to being a Nazi, it's abnormal behavior based on TDS. This board is full of people with TDS, and it's hilarious.
Well, some people have a moral compass, If you have the moral direction of the Germans that supported the Nazi regime than you are likely contributing to the banality of evil and have no understanding as to why others would be morally outraged.

3 minutes ago, Lobo said:The "shot at the VP if/when they drop out" thing is one of the most incorrectly placed theories in modern presidential campaign politics.
When did Pence drop out in 2016? How about Kaine?
When did Paul Ryan drop out in 2012?
Biden did drop out and attach on to 2008 under Obama, I'll grant you that, same with Edwards in 2004 but he barely ran that time around. When did Palin drop out in 2008 though? Remind me.
When did Dick Cheney and Joe Liebermann decide to drop out in 2000?
When did Jack Kemp drop out in 1996? How about Al Gore in 1992, when did he drop out to join Clinton?
When did Bentsen drop out in 1988? How about Quayle?
When did Ferraro drop out to back Mondale in 1984?
Bush did do that in a way in 1980 to team up with Reagan.
3 examples in 40 years. That O'Rourke or someone like him has a real shot at the VP slot by exiting elegantly from this race is largely foolish. The DNC will pick an establishment VP and their voters will shut up and take it.
VP's being chosen from the pool of people who just left the race is simply not true in the vast, vast majority of cases. It's as logical as picking Biden to carry Delaware or Cheney to carry Wyoming.
I don't disagree but Beto is pretty much a nobody and his only chance is gaining attention during the primary. Otherwise he's just that guy that lost to Cruz.
Plus he can potentially trade an endorsement for a cabinet position.

But it is entertaining to see adults lose their shit daily.
Uh, you referenced a meme about Pence being a cause for Trump winning reelection. It seems your statement is predicated on Trump supporters getting their pussy hurt from internet memes. That there is a demographic that is prone to losing their shit on a daily basis.

The smart move would be to drop out and work on organizing Texas and advocating on immigration. Don't run. Support candidates in Texas up and down the ballot using his donor network and volunteer network. Run for Governor or for Cruz's seat again in 2022 when the time is right.
He can still do that after he loses the primary. By staying in the race he at least has a shot at the VP nomination.

Well there you go. So some of Austin supported Ron for president in ‘88. Been while since I watched it but I do believe you are right.
This is off topic but Slacker despite being a few years before my time represents the Austin that I remember and cherish. It's crazy how much the place has changed.

Actually, history and facts are the basis of policy.
And even when you tread into the what-if territory, it has to be realistic and based on evidence. For example, “what if the Iranian military air jumped into the US on jet propulsion packs, armed with fully automatic guns that shoot small tactical nuclear weapons at 150 weapons per second and kills all of us?!” is not a basis for foreign policy.
You are arguing with people that believe a Space Force is necessary. All of their ideas are based on absurd scenarios.

How to appeal to reluctant Trump voters?
in Cloak Room
Evangelicals and Trumpkins are not reluctant Trump voters, they are his base. This is like calling aggy corp dorks two percenters. The reluctant Trump voters are the disenfranchised working class from the Rust Belt.
