b_m_b_m_b_m Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 since partisan gerrymandering cannot be reviewed by the courts, might as well dunk on these assholes. In fact, if Dems were serious about gerrymandering reform, they'd make a point to create such hilariously partisan maps that no court could uphold them The illinois map is hilarious though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEOPLE LOOK AT THE OPPOSITION AND MIGHT LIKE WHAT THEY SEE. Hillary’s TV ads in 2016 mostly amounted to “omg, look at Trump? Do you really want this?”, and yes, there were a lot of other factors, but I firmly believe this didn’t help her. JFC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marioandsonic Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 So during his first impeachment and the Mueller hearings, the GOP said Trump can't be punished for his actions because he's the president. And now they're saying he can't be punished because he's no longer president? Which is it?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 she might be dumber than every single republican. Fortunately vp can overrule the parliamentarian and it takes 60 votes to overrule that overrule. But it doesn't bode well for literally any other thing that we'd want to get done, in this congress or the next should we keep majorities. Republicans won't support a new voting rights act so she's trying to put herself out of a job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
