The Real timschochet

But Pelosi is quite possibly the greatest legislator in Congress we’ve ever had. Why wouldn’t we want that?

Yeah we wouldn’t want to do that. Are you telling Elon and Peter Thiel?

I imagine the DNC is going to be pretty crowded: Monday night: Barack and Michelle Tuesday night: Joe Biden Wednesday night: VP Candidate Thursday night: Kamala…and Taylor Swift?

Of course there are ramifications. But the problem with conservatives such as yourself is that you assume they’re all negative. Many times they are positive. However, that’s not my main problem with your argument. My main problem is that you’re insisting on treating our society as some sort of theoretical model which is currently unfettered capitalism until we choose to make this new move interfering with it. Thats not at all the case. If we forgive student loans, the government will be heavily involved with free enterprise. If we do NOT forgive student loans, the government will still be heavily involved with free enterprise. You’re not making an argument for less involvement; if you get your way you’re only redirecting the involvement somewhere else. Thus, as much as some of your points might make sense in a theoretical discussion, they don’t have any bearing on the real world. When it comes to an issue like student loan relief, we can therefore dismiss all questions of fairness and principle. The ONLY question we need to ask ourselves is this: would such a move benefit our society? I can make a good argument that it would.

No, this is wrong IMO. Ever since FDR and the New Deal government has involved itself with corrections of the free market. This hasn’t hurt capitalism at all; in fact it’s saved it and created greater prosperity. Relieving student loans, for example, is an excellent idea because it will increase the number of first time buyers. And there is no principle involved here, because Republicans are just as heavily involved in government investments (for example the petroleum industry.) I suppose if you truly believed in your argument based on principle you might vote libertarian, but it’s not reflective of actual capitalism in this country for the last 100 years. I do appreciate the Network reference. Paddy Chayefsky was a genius.

I don’t think @Strike or @Hardcore troubadour are racists. I think they’re generally wrong on racial issues and sometimes they make unfortunate comments but I doubt it’s deliberate. Some of the other people you mentioned are indeed racist.

Maybe Trump will get the courage to debate her.

You’ve posted this twice now just this morning. Bringing up Willie Brown isn’t going to work either. You know why? Because she didn’t rape him.

The dudes on the right are missing their hoods.

Yeah she’s terrified. Lololol. You’re losing. It’s getting worse for you not better. By next week she’s going to be a few points ahead in every swing state. Come up with something better.

Anyone who likes capitalism should vote for Kamala, as Trump is anti-capitalist.

1 It was Senator Whitehouse in an interview on MSNBC. I misheard him. 2. Based on your quote Biden’s statement appears to be a lie. Thats not something I heard before. Hope you’re satisfied now. I try to offer my honest opinion. It is my firm and honest opinion that Biden’s policies on the border have been far better than Trump despite the increase in border crossings. Trump’s policies were unacceptable to me. And his new proposals will be an absolute catastrophe. Thankfully it’s starting to look like we’ll never have to find out just how terrible they will be.

None of this will work. Nobody cares.

See you’re just repeating lies here and it’s nonsense. She was born in Oakland. She moved to Canada at age 12 and lived there 9 years. She attended Howard University (a historical black college) and joined a famous black sorority. She’s identified as a black American woman her entire life. Get the hell out of here with this. It’s wrong, and it won’t work. Even if it was true it would be an idiotic criticism anyhow.

Tucker will have to take his share of blame for the nomination of JD Vance- reports are he was heavily involved. Hopefully after Trump loses, Tucker Carlson will be relegated to the dustbin of history- a modern day Father Coughlin.

This has nothing to do with my post. And beyond that it won’t work. Kamala is having a good time. She’s delivering a positive, joyful, optimistic message. Trump is attacking her appearance, her husband, and trying to win with gloom and doom. I really think she’s going to win.

In a new line of attack last night, Trump suggests world leaders will disrespect Kamala Harris because of her “appearance”, then added “and I don’t want to say why. But people know what I mean” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/07/30/trump-harris-play-toy-comment/ He appears to be resorting to racism and sexism, though I’m sure his fans will deny it (they always do.) Whatever. This will, I believe, only backfire and increase the disgust for him and the support for her.

You’re not serious right? Are you talking about the Kamala rally tonight in Georgia? Standing room only? Are you just making up sh!t now?

Another good night for Harris, as Kerri Lake wins the nomination for senator in Arizona. This will surely help Kamala to win the state.

Since almost none of these people are or will ever be freeloaders (certainly not at the level of a lot of folks living in the red states which the more productive blue states like California are forced to subsidize) I strongly doubt Kamala’s solutions will please you. They involve comprehensive immigration reform, strengthening security at the border (but never a wall) spending more money to address climate change which is the main reason for South American economic and political insecurity these days.

Sorry I was on the phone. So after your info I went back and checked what I heard. I wasn’t lied to but I misheard them. What the person (a Democratic Senator) said was that the current encounters were the lowest SINCE 2020. What I thought I heard was LOWER than 2020. The fault is mine.

She didn’t fail. Her job was to investigate the problem and make recommendations about how to fix it. She did. Her solutions were good ones. Still are. You’re supporting a guy who proposes to have the police and military round up millions of people, put them in detention camps and ship them out of the country. Idiotic, catastrophic, un-American. So long as you support that you don’t get to criticize Kamala or any other Democrat on this issue.

It’s not a good one. They’re not denying that she was called the border czar by the media, picking up on what the right called her. They’re pointing out that it was never an accurate title, which is true.

I’m not predicting anything other than it will likely go down to the wire. But right now it looks very good for Kamala. Are you denying this?

Your chart doesn’t have 2020 or before on it. Where’s the lie? June, 2024 was 130,000. That’s the lowest number in the last 4 years. Where’s the lie?
