@averagejoe1 saidNone of your "questions" are honest.
You thus say, in this hypo, that the Dem votes are useless? Then you are saying that the minority (that would be the remaining group of 49% would have no voice. Do you see your conflict now?
If the Repubs take control of House in '22, would you not like for the dems to still have a say in legislation, or should they just not show up, since repubs would have all the voice??
Can you not comment on this clearly. It is an honest question.

@metal-brain saidYes. Three EC votes are nothing. It's a little over 1% of what they need to win.
Are you claiming nobody running for POTUS campaigns in Wyoming? Yes or no?
When Republicans do show up in Wyoming, they do so to inflame their base and get a sound byte for the evening news. That's far more valuable than three EC votes.
@phranny saidYou missed that he wrote that as a red voter.
Well written. Thank you. The decimation of unions in the USA has vastly increased the power of corporations. Racism and the strong belief in individualism also makes it difficult for the USA to truly be a representative democracy. There is a large minority, maybe even a majority, who believe that if you are in need, it's your own fault. You made bad choices. You didn't provi ...[text shortened]... protect citizens is not a part of USA culture, despite the continual shouting about being Christian.
Seriously.
@sonhouse saidSonhouse, does Biden have handlers, since you mention handlers?
@Metal-Brain
Why? So you can feed your handlers that info and Puke out more stupidity?
And would you please open a new thread, and tell us that you have, more than once, told us all that Trump committed many crimes. If you know what he did, and it qualifies as a crime(you can look it up on google, just name the crime, I will do a LexisNexis for you if you can't figure it out.).
Because you are saying on another thread that you have no evidence, but it would be evidence enough for the forum if you would tell us what he did, and show your source defining it as a crime.
You are backtracking on that other thread, when you have time and time again said he committed crimes.

@suzianne saidNot only that but Wyoming is a solid red state, so campaigning in it would be a total waste of time: it's voted Republican by a wide margin in every Presidential election since LBJ's landslide win in 1964. In fact:

"Two-thirds (273 of 399) of the general-election campaign events in the 2016 presidential race were in just 6 states (Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, and Michigan).
94% of the 2016 events (375 of the 399) were in 12 states (the 11 states identified in early 2016 as "battleground" states by Politico and The Hill plus Arizona)."

@AverageJoe1
To people not hypnotized by Trump his crimes are obvious.
There is ZERO point in me pointing them out again.
Which OF COURSE you will tout as a victory.
@sonhouse saidSo were you lying back then, or are you lying now??

@phranny saidYes, but he's seriously disillusioned, even mentally handicapped, that Republicans can do these things better than Democrats.
I agree with what he wrote in this post. I may well disagree witht his next post. Maybe not. Depends on what he says.
@no1marauder saidExactly.

Like I said, there is no DEBATING with you. Instead of a clear answer to a charge, you just disseminate more BS.
You say where are the crimes of Trump? How about this one: Pressuring the Georgia Sec. of State to find those 10,000+ votes Trump thinks he needed to show Georgia actually went with Trump.
THAT IS A FEDERAL CRIME. And there are proceedings about that going on right now.
But that is just the tip of the iceberg.
And OF COURSE to you, since Tucker Carlsen is your GOD, second only to Trump himself and maybe your affiliation with the Proud Boys, all that is fake news.
@suzianne saidThen your applied sense here would convince everyone to do away with the Electoral College. Why don't they? Since it makes so much sense?
Exactly.
Anyway, with a partisan government, and as it needs a constitutional amendment, it is a waste of time to keep talking about it. Ain't gonna happen.

Well it is obvious, Repubs want status quo, that is, whitey in power permanently and dems want to make lives better for individual citizens.
There IS no actual republican agenda beyond that.
I noticed you didn't deign to answer my bit about Trump being a criminal.
Can't take the truth can you?
