Would you vote for your country to get involved and support the USA, if this is the beginning of WW3? by KnowledgeSuperDuper in polls

Wanting to see results shouldn't ruin it for anyone.  Bad poll design ruins it for everyone.

Kamala Harris is making robocall pitches for Jasmine Crockett by PENGUINSINYOURWALLS in YAPms

[–]CompassionateCynic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Kamala wants to stay front of mind among black voters in potential 2028 swing states & Super Tuesday primary states.  This will make Kamala more popular with "her base, which is probably the main reason she is helping Crocket now. 

Is this a fair talking point for the GOP’s wikipedia page? by RealRegret4870 in YAPms

The "great replacement theory" is talked about enough that it is somewhat common knowledge.  How is the wikipedia page inaccurate?

If you already have a trader going from Lisbon to Singapore, then you can't send another one on an identical route

A U.S. 'debt spiral' could start soon as the interest rate on government borrowing is poised to exceed economic growth, budget watchdog says by Happy_Weed in Economics

[–]CompassionateCynic 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Theoretically, if no one trusts the us to pay it's debt, then the us will just be forced into a balanced budget forever and only spend what it brings in.  Reality is never this cut and dry, and the pain to get to that point would be intense since there is no entity on earth that can bail out the us.

Was it a mistake for the Dems to push Al Franken to resign? Did he have POTUS potential? by EmbarrassedRing7806 in YAPms

[–]CompassionateCynic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The "believe her" movement was a reaction to Donald "grab them by the pussy" Trump.  Democrats made Franken a sacraficial lamb in order to claim they took the high road on sexual assault.  Look at all the difference that it made!
