I’m extremely shocked right now, I was expecting the Market to be up big today. If this continues I may have to reavaluate some of my political predictions.

After 4 years of a socialist and a man who at that point had been Vice President for 12 years. 2020 would probably be more like 1976 where an unpopular Republican President narrowly loses the popular vote to a guy who's far to the left. Then 2024 would probably be 1980 where in this casebook Bernie Sanders would be Jimmy Carter and Ted Cruz would probably be Ronald Reagan.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)/Frm Amb. Nikki Hayley (R-SC) - 312 EV - 50.0% PV

Pres. Bernie Sanders (D-VT)/VP Joe Biden (D-DE) - 226 EV - 48.1% PV

FDR who was social democrat lika Sanders(not socialict,there is a diffrence) re eleced free times,so no.
Lyin' Tedy Canadi will lose.

FDR was also a raging anti Semitic Nazi sympathizer who reluctantly fought the Germans in WWII.

The WWII helped for shure but the New Deal is the reason why he was one of the greatist presidents.

I just realized if FDR was alive today he would never vote for Bernie Sanders  of course cause Bernie is Jewish and FDR was pretty much a Nazi despite reluctantly fighting Nazis in WWII. He probably would vote for Trump over Sanders despite  some political disagreements he may have with him

All of Medal's posts in this quote chain are terrible, especially the part I bolded

The fact that [FDR] was a raging anti Semite who hated Jews and interned Asian Americans is something the left probably loves about him right?

Somebody tell Medal that the Olympics don't start until later tomorrow, and that there's no medal in "bad hot takes" or "excessive hyperbole."

BLM is a Domestic Terrorist organization

Identity politics is the definition of this question. How about what people are on the actual issues?

3rd wayers do their best to avoid the issues, because they suck so badly on them.

You are both completely off base, but you are both white males so anything that remotely revolves around representation for other groups must seem foreign to you. If you really think advocating for a racially or gender diverse ticket means putting some unqualified, incompetent hack that "sucks on the issues" on board then you aren't wrapped too tight.

So because they're white males, they're automatically racist?

That is actually pretty racist in and of itself.

Where did I say they were racist? LOL. Goodbye.

Yawn.

Your hatred of whites has reached some pretty insane levels.

All of those European immigrants from the 19th century, they and their children as a group only became wealthier after we closed to the borders in 1924. When we opened the borders back up in 1965, social mobility became stagnant again. The period of closed borders between 1924 and 1965 saw the greatest social mobility and the greatest income equality. But you must already know this since you already conceded immigration makes us poorer.

Also "diversity is strength". That's not an answer to my question. That's s slogan. HOW is diversity strength? That's what I was asking.

With regards to immigrants supporting our welfare state, that is just a lie. Immigration, in the form it currently exists in the United States, causes the ratio of net tax payers to net tax users to increase in favor of net tax uses, because of the welfare dependent children that immigrants have, who would not be the US government's responsibility if the US had not allowed their parents to immigrate in the first place.

More immigration = a greater percentage of the population using more in welfare than they pay in taxes

You realize that filing taxes is not the same as paying taxes right? Most poor people (and immigrants are disproportionately poor) file their taxes and actually get money back from the government in the form of tax credits. So even though they "pay taxes" in the sense that they file their taxes, they aren't contributing money to the general fund, they are actually taking money out of the general fund. That's in addition to whatever welfare their families qualify for.

Maybe immigrants would help the Social Security system if all the immigrants we got were 18 year old adults who immediately went to work at high paying jobs, never had families, and then died before they themselves retired but that's not the way it works in the real world. In the real world, half of all immigrants to the US are "family reunification", often old people and children who require government services to meet our basic standard of living.

I honestly don't know how to fix Social Security long term but I know what won't fix it, immigration. Immigration puts MORE stress on Social Security.

We didn't even "close our borders" in 1924 with Johnson-Reed, we instated quotas (not that that's a good thing). The point he based his entire argument on is bunk, but he won't listen if you try to tell him that.

White people were always very sympathetic to the Holocaust because they view Jews as being just like them.

Did no such thing; reading comprehension does not seem to be your strongest suit. It's okay to be white.

No one said it isn't

You must be logged in to read this quote.

There are multiple definitions of "racism," and saying that, say, white people can't understand what it's like to be black doesn't fit any of them, not even the loosest one. Bringing up race isn't racism.

That's almost like saying that I'm homophobic because I don't think straight people can fully understand what it's like to be gay. It's something that's literally true.

(also, there's a difference between understanding with your head and understanding via your life experiences)

In America, at least, being judge, jury, and executioner can be a figure of speech.  I don't mean he is really dead.

ok but do you understand what a lynching is

Lmao, good to see black people attempting to invent their own equivalent of ‘n-r’ by calling all white women who do things they don’t like ‘Becky’ (also applies to ‘yt’ I guess). Tremendous stuff.
