Re: US Politics Thread
Really, an ignore feature would be great. Really great discussions devolve into stupidity. I don't want to see Mitch banned but I don't want to see his posts.
I asked for this over 2 years ago so I could avoid the truther. I’ll reiterate now what I said then, I’d gladly chip in to upgrade this forum to support modern features.

Re: US Politics Thread
Unless the economy tanks, I can't see any of these people beating Trump.
If Biden survives the primary without selling his soul, I still think he can. But no one else has a chance.
Re: US Politics Thread
Trump either has to do something so stupid his people won't support him (unlikely), have the economy tank (not impossible), or some moderate separates themselves on the democratic side (unlikely given the power of the squad).
There is no chance a socialist can beat him and socialists have shown they won't show up to support a moderate. Right now changing that might be their best hope.

Well, unless a 3rd party candidate, like John Kasich, pulls a Ross Perot and 'takes away' Republican votes from Trump, splitting them and the Dem not named takes it. Honestly, I'd be ok if Kasich or someone somewhat reasonably moderate won it. Over some wackjob 'Vote for me, Everythings free!' candidate with no courage or conviction, just saying anthing to get elected (Booker, Harris, Castro)
In hindsight, kindof ashame that Starbucks owner got booed & derailed when announcing he'd run independent (A heckler yelled 'You conceited asshole, a 3rd party means a win for Trump' or something) I also think he might've been wrong on that accusation. But, would probably be worth listening to his plans, we had 20 candidates onstage bantering about everything free with little business experience save Yang.

Sorry dude...it seems futile to discuss the merits of policy or the qualifications of a candidate when most voters in this country don’t vote based on any of those things.
50 percent of people don’t even vote in this country just to give you some idea what a farce this democracy is...and the political party in control right now actively suppress the vote and no one cares.
