I tried to tell @History Learner but he doubled-down on stupid analytics, so I blocked him for awhile
The black community will survive, its ghetto culture thats most likely going to die.

Of course the ghetto garbage will FINALLY die off!

At that point, why vote for him then if he is too ineffectual to enact his signature campaign pledges?
Asians have a TFR of around 1.3 and Hispanics now regularly vote at 30-40% Republican, with indications that will grow. As for the Black vote in the wider South:
We also have pretty strong evidence that White voters will, on average, become more conservative with time:

He was literally in the middle of dealing with 3 federal investigations into him? There isn't a president on earth that can do anything in that atmosphere. The dude was impeached twice.
and meanwhile Biden who has been guilty of far far worse hasn't been impeached once.

And from January of 2017 to January of 2019, he had control of the Presidency, the Supreme Court and both chambers of Congress. If you think Federal investigations somehow impeded legislation from passing, then how did he get his Tax bill through? If you think federal investigations are that impeding then I ask again, why vote for him because do you really think they won't do more if he's reelected? It's just coping; be honest with yourself about his limitations or failings (whichever suits you best to view the wider issue through) and then move on from there.

Honestly, the funniest take away from this election to me for those on the Right is that the two main schools of thought since 2020 got disproved; it's not fraud and it's not demographics, it's bad candidates, bad strategy and bad platforms. Not even the abortion issue can explain it fully; Kentucky almost passed tougher restrictions and the Pro Life position went from 28% support in the Summer to 45% by election day in Michigan. Even CNN conceded that, in Red states, there wasn't much evidence for Dobbs being that big of a deal to voters.

This is false. He never had control of Congress or the Court. The Republican Congress (ie. establishment) fought him all the way. And the idea that Trump controlled the SCOTUS is hilarious.
So speaking of the senate, they are going to have a vote tonight on the War Powers resolution in Yemen. If you want the US to stop supporting our terrorists vs their terrorists in Yemen, now is a great time to call your representatives at 1-833-STOP-WAR.
EDIT: Sometimes that doesn't work because the system isn't perfect, if you need help, just PM me, I will find your representative, senators, and their office numbers.

Wait a minute, why are we even bothering? HL is a commie RPing as a republican in this thread.
To make sure certain claims are countered.

Fair enough.
Sadly, I have to report that Bernie has pulled the vote out of fear of getting a no after the White House whipped senators to campaign against it. He's gonna try to rewrite it slightly to get White House approval (that won't happen). It's just depressing. The pictures of the starving shilderen are just horrifying. And we are doing this. That's what your tax money goes to pay for: to starve Yemeni children to death.
I'm just depressed. Why does the US keep perpetrating these horrors? Seriously, the hell goes through someone's head that justifies this?
Still, if people want to call 1-833-STOP-WAR to try to get your senators on board, that'd be great. There's now more time, and you can argue it's to spite Obama and Biden I guess. Again, I will help anyone who wants to call their senator/representative (for any reason, but especially to stop war), just PM me if you need help.
You might ask Iran that question too, given they are the ones supplying the other side, including with IRBMs that are fired on Riyad or anti-shipping missiles that have fired on multiple nations ships in the waters around Yemen.
Turns out the US cutting aid/involvement in a conflict does not mean the conflict ends, or that the actions of parties involved will not have knock-on effects for US interests, particularly in busy shipping lanes that have been proven vulnerable to anti-shipping missiles and different varieties of mining efforts.

Which is why I blocked that uppity jackass!
That you think "Iran's there, so we have to be there" is a valid argument says everything about you. That you think vague 'US interests' are worth this
or this:
tells us everything about where your priorities are. The US government is doing evil, funding Al Qaeda, starving kids. It needs to stop. Damn your 'interests'.

Sanders needs to SHUT UP
The Netherlands is also VERY LGBTQ+ friendly, and Sinema is bisexual, so it's a good fit for her. I'm surprised that she still hasn't married even though she is already in her 40s.
