    This one should be a double-thread post, but that facility isn’t possible, so here goes...

    Mumbles if you want an issue to sway voters here you go, lurkers, everyone.
    Mitch McConnel is on the record on this
    As usual the GOP lied about the tax cuts paying for themselves. Remember trump promised not to gut these programs, he lied.
    It's not just Trump this has been GOP policy forever.


    GOP: Lets give tax cuts to the billionaires and corporations and pay for it by robbing Americas retirement money.

    Now you know why they got this immigration caravan diversion, spread the word, America they're robbing your ass blind..

    Which will kill more Americans, the $900 million we spend daily on military or gutting Medicare?

    If you think they care if you die you must be blissfully unaware what the war machine has been doing the last 15 years.

    The gutting of medicare means a shitload of people will die under 60 or whatever age and never draw the SS money they paid into it, see what they're doing?

    Another major Texas newspaper endorses Beto O'Rourke over Cruz.

    We recommend Beto O'Rourke for U.S. Senate
    https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/e...urke-us-senate

    In looking at the race for United States Senate in Texas, we recognize that this country stands on a precipice. Whether we fall off the edge depends on how we answer this question: Can we set policy differences aside, even for a moment, and agree to treat each other with the respect befitting a great nation, with acknowledgment of the humanity of each person?

    We have been at divisive political moments before, and we know those often end when leaders emerge who find ways to get along personally even when they are engaged in grand, tectonic political debates. That is one of the underappreciated stories of the 1980s, when President Ronald Reagan and House Speaker Tip O’Neill worked together. Even when they fought it out on tough issues, they fostered an enduring friendship.

    For this reason more than any other, we favor U.S. Rep. Beto O’Rourke for U.S. Senate. The pivotal issue before our country is public leadership, and here we believe O’Rourke’s tone aligns with what is required now. This inclusive and hopeful tone, along with O’Rourke’s approach of starting with shared principles and working toward solutions, offset any policy differences we have with him. Leadership is more than policy, and whether we are addressing the very real challenges before us now turns on our ability to find points of agreement.

    In this respect, O’Rourke is the stronger candidate. In conducting his campaign, he has displayed a demeanor that offers respect for each person and a humbleness that will allow him to open the door to working with those who hold political views different from his. We believe O’Rourke is right in calling for rejoining the Paris climate accord, supporting the vast potential of renewable energy in Texas, and calling for universal background checks on guns. He is also right to reject the call for construction of a border wall and to call for comprehensive and fair immigration reform.

    By contrast, through his actions in Washington and his rhetoric from Iowa to New Hampshire and beyond, incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz has distinguished himself as a cutting figure in today’s politics. Lincoln, echoing the Gospel of Mark, cautioned us long ago that a house divided against itself cannot stand. And we believe that at this moment, we cannot afford such an approach.

    That is not to say that Cruz doesn’t arrive to this debate with a host of policy positions that we are deeply devoted to. On economic policy, for example, we supported the president’s tax cuts that Cruz voted for. And we stand with Cruz in looking to remove federal regulations that stifle job creation. Removing barriers to American employment and prosperity is itself an act of compassion.

    We were also moved by Cruz when he told us about meeting with the students from Santa Fe High School after the shooting there. In those comments he listed a number of ideas on how to curb such attacks, including an idea we supported this year to create a unit in the Justice Department to find holes in the background system before they are exploited by the next shooter. He also supports political dissidents who push for human freedom abroad, support that we share as we look for ways to ground American foreign policy in a set of guiding principles that will rally others to our cause.

    But there is a set of principles we would like to restore in domestic politics that starts with building political bridges. Before he became Cruz’s challenger, O’Rourke was a congressman best known outside of El Paso for road-tripping across Texas and up to Washington with Republican Congressman Will Hurd. The two had serious differences, but their camaraderie and their willingness to discuss compromise were a brief antidote to the political poison seeping out of the capital.

    O’Rourke largely framed his campaign around the spirit of the road trip with just a few notable exceptions. Those include saying he would vote to impeach the president, thereby putting himself in favor of what would be one of the most divisive fights in politics. At the end of the campaign he also broke with his approach to repeat an insulting nickname Donald Trump once slapped on Cruz. These are blemishes on his campaign.

    O’Rourke is no conservative Democrat. His positions on taxes, immigration, the judiciary, federal regulations and health care are further to the left than many statewide voters would like. But he is shattering expectations in a state where Democrats haven’t won a statewide race in decades. The dollars he has raised and the number of supporters he has garnered are evidence of an embedded hunger in this state and country for a campaign that’s based on unifying communities.

    In the divisive times in which we live, we believe that tone and leadership are the top issues with which to judge these candidates' tenures in office. So we’re placing a bet on Beto.

    If they were going to do these things, wouldn’t they have already done them since they have both houses and the senate?

    Actually the big theft is done, the tax cuts. The only question is the severity of cuts to SS and Medicare.
    Nope same cycle over and over.

    They campaign on great policies for America and win majorities.

    They do nothing they promised, in fact usually the opposite, they reveal themselves to be total Charlatans.

    The whole time they have their enormous propaganda machine spinning the truth aka the CEC (Conservative Entertainment Complex)
    but they know they'll probably get voted out on their ass, so they set the dems up to take the fall.

    They know it's likely the dems will win and since Citizens United they wont overturn the tax cuts.
    They will be forced to cuts SS and medicare for the GOP's tax cuts.

    The whole time the Dems are doing this the CEC will be in full spin.

    Fake outrage, fake patriotism and outright lies, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
    The whole shebang 24/7 365 X 2 or 4

    After a couple years of constant spin, the process starts over.

    Example
    Immigration: No wall no end to chain migration, just an evil child separation scheme for their donors.
    The media and ADL helped by making it seem like white racist just enjoy doing this to Mexicans.
    as if
    the ADL doesn't trains the border patrol.

    Trump did try to pass the largest amnesty in 50 years.
    and he did try to remove E verify so illegal immigrants can compete with American workers.
    It almost passed too

    Nice huh

    But Trump's a Fuckin agent of Israel aka the Russian Mafia aka the Oligarchs and so is his entire fucking cabinet.
    They are looting, dumping off our technology to the highest bidder and shaking down Arabs and they want to
    privatize everything like they did in the former SU.

    Vote dem, or don't vote.

    The money spent on our military is beyond ridiculous, if you’re going to cut taxes, at least cut military spending.

    This is why we need isis and China and any other phony enemy we can drum up, to justify the $681 Billion military budget.

    Although the military does employ a shitload of people so you need to wait until unemployment is low to cut military spending....like how about right now with the labor shortage in the private sector....get them paying into the tax rolls vs being a net loss.

    Still not voting for Beto...he really has no new ideas...same old Bernie Sanders type crap...he also looks like Butthead from beavis and butthead...

    I remember being a kid and thinking that people in congress must be the smartest in the whole country...boy was I wrong...bunch of self serving asshats.

    I actually read the Houston Chronicle endorsement, it basically said “we pick Beto, not because we like Beto but because we hate Trump, also Ted Cruz is a bit self serving”

    So they picked Beto because they hate him less than the other candidate.

    Sounds familiar.

    Caught this dude on hardball last night. I had heard a lot about him being a rising star and possible future presidential candidate. I had heard a lot of Kennedy comparisons. He definitely has that vibe. I was unaware his family had been involved with Kennedy era politics back when via some military connection or whatever. He looked like a Kennedy.

    Like if JFK and RFK hadn’t been long buried and I was his dad, I’d be thinking dna test. He definitely has that constantly upbeat and positive vibe going. I found him a bit much. More rah rah than substantive. I assume he’ll lose because he’s a dem in Texas. I wouldn’t be shocked if he is a future national figure. He’s charismatic and looks the part, and given the Dems charisma vacuum, I don’t think he’s going anywhere. I’d vote for him before Cruz obviously, but I’d vote for an empty chair before Cruz, and tbh, I kind of expected more. Really upbeat which the country needs, and fine, but he didn’t say anything that made me think this fucker really is smart and gets it. Just generally likable rather than transcendent rock star politician that I had heard him portrayed as. That was just my general impression.
