Ah - let me help you here. You see, people that pay taxes have had enough of paying with no representation. So no matter how much more blood a leech wants…….a leech is still a leech, w/ no say in how much more blood is available to said leech. So - move to Venezuela if you don’t like it
I'm assuming the people that pay taxes are going to be doing all the work, manning the register and stocking the shelves, cooking the food and busing and washing the dishes, etc since we are doing away with all the "leeches" right?

That's such a miniscule drop in the bucket compared to what's spent on social security and Medicare. It's bizarre you are worried about the pennies that are spent compared to the real money

I'm guessing you don't have a 401k or any money tied up in anything if that's the case
What did they cave on, paying the bill for what they already spent?

re: Indianapolis youth LGBT carnival will not allow parents to attend

Meh, growing up I remember there being kids only events at various places. I can't remember if it was explicitly said parents not allowed but it was implied at the least. It's okay to have places for kids to grow up and learn independence.
Now it being wrapped in the framework of sexuality is another bag of worms but just having a place for kids to have a supervised good time without parents around isn't a bad thing imo.

We need to be honest and introspective: there is basically zero difference in the behavior of the hardcore DeSantis and Trump people.
Nah, DeSantis supporters are concerned with defeating Biden and actually governing the country with conservative policies. Trump supporters are concerned with frankly idealizing the man as a near godlike figure, the only one who can save us from the deep state globalist. Never mind that he didn’t do it his first term but this time it will be differen(T). And never mind that he is going further and further to the left in trying to attack DeSantis, he’s still infallible.
There’s absolutely a difference between the two, and the fact that you can’t see it speaks all you need to know.

The truth is, a large number of Trump’s supporters aren’t conservatives. They want the theatrics of Trump and not much else.
Agreed. They'll never admit it but their support for Trump is just for like you said the theatrics. So long as he keeps making the libs melt they'll excuse anything else he does.
re: Indiana Doctor 'reprimanded' after performing an abortion on 10 year old
Posted by Barbarosa on 5/26/23 at 4:02 pm to captainFid
Is it legal in Indiana? If so she did the right thing if that's what the girl and her parents wanted. Is her age what makes this news I'm not getting it. It would be beyond cruel to force a 10 year old to give birth if she didn't want to.
re: One thing that's been swaying me: Trump can only serve one term but Ron can serve two

Ron running this year was the absolute worst thing to happen to the Republican Party in 2024 and likely extending into 2028. The Trump faction of the GOP is here forever and ever. This wasn't a one trick pony. It isn't going away no matter WHAT happens. I'm sure the Ron! people are aware of that but sometimes, I think just losing is the GOP's natural preferred position.
That's such an insane take. Y'all would rather lose with Trump than not cast your vote for him. That's worshipping a politician and about as swampy as it gets.
Your country should come first, not stroking the ego of one man.

re: DeSantis problem is that his brand completely lacks humor

The MAGA crowd it seems has turned into a bunch of LARPers pretending they are in a battle against a deep state bogeyman and conspiracies around every corner. They've traded in actual politics and governing for entertainment, and just so long as they get some of those sweet lib tears all is well.
Maybe endorsements don't actually mean very much and people spend way too much time worrying about who endorses who when it has little bearing on the outcomes..

It’s because he’s part of the GOPe WEF and something about PAUL RYAN
Trump seems to be focused on DeSantis. I wish he was focused on the future
quote:
The Democrats want appetizers, a huge meal, some expensive wine, dessert, and coffee afterwards. Republicans are trying to cut out the dessert and Dems are freaking out about it.
I agree. It's not just the dessert though. We need to be ordering a salad not the appetizer, filet, tons of sides,and then yes the dessert too.
DeSantis appears to be for this. Trump talked the talk going into his presidency but the debt kept going up year over year under him.

So why didn't he do it while he was in office? It seems a tad crazy to think he'd do anything different this time.

By whom? Any of the Republicans currently in the House? Doubtful.
So we can never cut spending because some previous congress already passed a budget?
Please don't vote.
I'm guessing the congress over the prior year. If the Republican congressman didn't advocate for cuts then the spending is on them too. Like I said earlier I heard it mentioned in more than one thread that one of DeSantis's faults was advocating for cutting social security and Medicare, two of the largest expenditures of the federal government. That should tell you everything you need to know about how serious some are about cuts.
I don't know why that means no cuts can occur either, not sure where that comes from.
I agree. So spend less.
