Trump's approval with Republicans rose by 5 points after his racist tweets

[Althea]

It all depends on who dims nominate in '20. If you want Trump gone, best to hope Biden gets it.
Open borders, reparations, student loan forgiveness and eliminating private hlth. insurance are all losers and deal breakers for most.

Agree with the latter part of the post. It almost doesn't matter who the nominee is. trump is gone. You won't see a far left candidate. Warren is great in the Senate. That's where she belongs. Sanders had his moment in the sun against Hillary. Now he just comes across as a curmudgeon with one trick.

If kids refuse to vote because they won't get free shit, they'll continue to suffer at the hands of this incompetent administration.

It's going to be interesting to see if they learned their lesson. Gun control is going to loom large for the children this cycle.

[Althea]

Biden would just be another Hillary. He's an establishment candidate who changes his stances with the culture. Like Trump, he doesn't believe in shit.
I think Sanders and Harris are the only ones who stand a chance. Not saying I like them, just that they have the best chance.

Harris. Not Sanders. He's unrealistic

[Althea]

Yes, while I think it's too early to call, I've accepted Trump will likely get reelected. But Sanders has that larger than life personality that wins elections and most Americans do agree with him on health care. And Harris has a badass attitude that people like.

Most Americans get their healthcare for free, or almost free. They don't agree with him. He couldn't get Single Payer in Vt. It's not feasible on the natl. level.

Biden has the best plan, which was Obama's original plan until the 11th hour.

[Althea]

I especially like how he said that he started talking quickly to drown out the chants. As if cameras don't exist and we can't watch him standing there in silence for like ten seconds while everyone chanted.

13 seconds. And the verb is 'basking'.

[Phantasmal]

13 seconds. And the verb is 'basking'.

Yes! The way he sticks his chin in the air and puffs his chest out, same posture when they chanted, “lock her up”. He was loving it. He will bask in it at next Klan meeting, I mean rally as well.

and that plan is a step to national healthcare


it merely allows the people who like their INSURANCE and want to keep it out of fear can keep it


once there is a public option the people will migrate to it out of realization they get Great Care for less money


yes its feasible


just like other nations we can do it

[anatta]

we???? you referring to MY nation? THE USA?

ALL THE DEMS RAISED THEIR HANDS in debate #1 when asked if the wanted illegals to get health care.


Hospitalization isn't the same as health care ( per Bill's post above).
Hospital stabilizes you,but if you need an operation otherwise -you don't get it...much less regular HC visits

Not clear what you mean but yes, they will get an operation if need be.....

I told you a few years ago about a friend (now a Dr) doing his internship @ a County hospital in Stockton, ca... (The county of San Joaquin was legally bankrupt)

Ppl literally from all over the world (they had over 20 ppl hired as interpreters & it was not enough) & they all had the same story pretty much.....

This one "story" he heard several times a day, every day for the first two weeks on the ward he was assigned (often times there were no interpreters so a family member had to act as one & w/out knowledge of how to say body parts & procedures etc in that language)...

Anyway the story was they just got here two weeks ago from Mumbai, China whatever & suddenly realized they had this or that that needed immediate surgery etc...... For some reason two weeks was the preferred but their conditions told a much different story or prolonged illness, cancers etc etc etc..

Harris. Not Sanders. He's unrealistic

You think open borders and reparations are realistic?
That's Harris

[Bill]

With the best economy in memory for blacks and Hispanics, we will see how they vote in 2020.

How do you think they gonna vote Earl??

Will they be very appreciative of this??

Or will they remember the attacks, go back to your own country, Donald Trump Attacked Six Black Women in Three Days: 'Nasty,' 'Loser,' 'Racist Question and 'Stupid Question' etc etc etc??

You can groan about it if it makes you feel better, but I am asking you a serious question here Earl..

The economy is better, as you said, but he has also done what I said..

[Bill]

Well, Bill...

“On Wednesday, as the policy begins to gain traction ahead of the presidential election, the House held its first discussion in a decade on reparations for the descendants of slaves, debating H.R. 40, which calls for a commission to “study and consider a national apology and proposal for reparations for the institution of slavery, its subsequent de jure and de facto racial and economic discrimination against African-Americans.”

Testimony in favor of reparations came from several witnesses, including actor Danny Glover and writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, the author of “The Case for Reparations Opens a New Window. ” and Sen. Cory Booker -- a Democratic presidential candidate.”

I posted a thread of what I believe is the best approach to that:Reperations~ The other persepective- Rep Jim Clyburn

Do you believe that ThatOwlWoman I know those ppl??

We referenced our experience.......??

Correct. It takes the first step. We aren't there yet. Who knows what will happen once we get a public option?

Not one Dem. candidate on the stage raised a hand for 'free' healthcare for illegals. Don't be fooled by his delusions.

I think you're talking about Beto.

[Bill]

Sorry, you do not get to report what black people feel.
I would be interested to know if any black poster here felt "pressured" to be a Democrat.

Trump's elderly supporters and hillbilly base are almost completely dependent on food stamps, medicare, medicaid, SS, etc.

I do not see Trump calling out his overwhelmingly white base for hogging free stuff.

The FREE STUFF conservative mantra is almost universally coded language representing the Republican stererotype of free loading, allergic to hard work, lazy minorities.

Thatz cause those other people didn't earn it like they did.. They worked hard, now after fishing all day they can hardly carry a thirty pack into the house..

A month ago someone posted some stats on that.. mcConnell country, the county w/ the highest percent of welfare recips was in his state & the county is 98% just like him....... THOSE FUCKIN PPL OTTA GO BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM.
