Would that really make a significant difference? The Republican and Democrat parties are already ideological ships of Theseus which become virtually unrecognizable compared to their previous incarnations every few decades. There is no core, lasting principle to either party besides "appeal to a large enough coalition of voters to win elections".
The trade war first term didn't kick off until mid-2018
Not because the Dems are an incompetent, lying ship of fools, but because they didn't commence Total MAGA Death when they had the chance.
As of today, their best bet is a Fetterman Gambit. I'm titling it this now because I believe this is what he's doing. Find a guy who will work with the Republicans and Trump administration to be a snake in the grass. Let him talk up the popular candidates and seem like he's an actual intelligent politician who will reform the other side. Tard wrangle everyone else to STFU and keep quiet. Then when the day comes when people are tired of MAGA, we can pull the wool over people's heads. I think this is their most likely play. Keep an eye on Fetterman.
It's really interesting to see a fed inside a gerbil instead of a gerbil inside a fed for once, not gonna lie.
did the trade war cause the shortage of containers? that was the big killer for covid logistics.
I'm not sure it'd be a benefit to keep creating new parties. Europe does it and it just makes your elections more retarded
In the meantime, the 25 year vehicle import rule needs to be abolished, all it's there for is protecting domestic vehicle manufacturing, and a lot of that's been exported and will take a while to get back, and car dealers. Fuck car dealers. Let me drive a mini truck from Japan that doesn't have 100k on the odometer.
The US has been a de-facto oligarchy for most of the 20th century, what fucking crack are you smoking?
What happened is the Democrats created an entire gentry class through federal agencies. This gentry class is angry that they aren't getting their special privileges anymore, but they should be glad that all they have to do now is get a fucking job, rather than how gentry were dealt with in previous historical moments.
This is what “learn to code” meant. It meant “we got ours, so suffer or something”
It was the oligharchy that he liked.
It's fake and gay until someone takes control, which is a risk you always have. Bernie rode a populism wave high enough to freak the hell out of Hillary and the Dems (especially because Obummer had done something similar 8 years before; people forget how much of a populist he was). Trump rode one successfully.
Believing there’s a “they” behind fatrick is giving him credibility.
No, that'd be too logical of a solution for the Democrats to claw their way into power.
It's hard to keep up with the kids and their wacky slang these days. "Bad" means good and "oligarchy" means a popularly elected president opposing the will of unelected career bureaucrats.
Popular outrage, justified or not, is nothing but angry meandering unless someone can direct it to some end.
