If the voters will sell America out for a mere $2000, then America is ready on her death bed.
One of my friends basically said something like “America is already dead, might as well get some free cash and let it collapse.”
I guess there are lot of Americans who can use $2000 in today’s covid-19 shutdown economy.
“If the voters will sell America out for a mere $2000, then America is ready on her death bed.”
They will, she is.
I think a lot of people feel helpless, for a lot of different reasons, but it all focuses on our dysfunctional, corrupt government. If I try to put myself in the position of someone who is scraping to get by:
I’d figure, to heck with it, I’ll vote for whoever gives me the most. I wouldn’t worry about things coming apart, because for me, things have already come apart.
The fact that Biden, Harris, Warnock, AOC, etc could even make it through the primaries will tell you that the nation has sunk too far to recover. The only question is, “What ewill replace it?”
$167 Trillion in debt that can’t be paid and people want more.
Yes, the nation is dead.
“ If the voters will sell America out for a mere $2000,”
My family could use the $2 k stimulus because we’ve been hurt financially by the covid fallout. I can image people in GA who are apolitical and who’ve been hurt more than we have, voting for the $2k. Hearing multimillionaire Mitch call it “socialism” isn’t going to persuade anybody who is in tough financial straights - especially if they know how much Congress sends to foreign countries and spends on foreign wars.
If the voters will sell America out for a mere $2000, then America is ready on her death bed.
i.e., in our current situation, the best case scenario is this is due to massive voter fraud. The worst case scenario is that this really does reflect the voters’ choices.
If the latter, the only solution is to pray and ammo up.
I posted this earlier on another thread.....
As a Georgia voter, here is my Post Mortem (which is the same as my Pre Mortem).
First the basics...Republican outreach and canvassing was good.....voters called and texted to death.....Terrible execution of yard signs.....I had made several requests starting November 4th, finally went to a rally where they handed them out... Warnock/Ossoff signs in my predominate Republican area outnumbered Loeffler/Perdue signs by 3 to 1 on major and secondary street corners......
Republican ads were terrible, few reasons cited on why to vote for the Republican candidate, the bulk was how horrible the other candidate was.....
The BS regarding ads and people advocating Republicans stay home and not vote (Lincoln Project/Woods et al) had no impact and was just noise......
Stacy Abrahms did a great job in registering new voters and getting out their vote.....Separate from the great ballot stuffing effort from the “Mail-In” ballots......
But most importantly was young white suburban couples and some of the elderly because of the following:
Mitch McConnell lost this election...... His stalwart opposition to the $2K/person COVID stimulus killed Republican chances..... When you pass an Omnibus bill with such huge amounts of pork going to foreign countries but ignore the US People, this is what you get.....
McConnell didn’t have a principled stand, principled would have been to block the bill. Instead, he appeared to ignore the American citizen in favor of special interests.
For example: What if the Pakistani Gender Studies money instead went to St. Judes Hospital for children’s cancer research?
He pits himself against Trump, now he is the minority leader and a complete failure as a Senator.
Perdue and Loeffler didn’t stand a chance even with supporting the president positions .....They were seen as part of McConnell’s group so by association, part of the problem.....
Obviously, that doesn’t mean that the Demoncrats are the correct solution but by appearing responsive they were able to peel off enough Republican-leaning independents.....
We need to Primary the bulk of our leadership at the next election and get new blood in the Senate and House nationwide. Get rid of McConnell at all costs.....
The Turtle has got to go.....
Yeah, those stupid voters, broken by the lockdowns that the government forced on them. They should take their $600 crumbs with joy and be happy for the trillions in pork their representatives in government shoveled to everyone else!
