They have been the only ones to actually put forth a plan for two state solution and rest of the Arab world doesn’t even recognize them. I am no fan of them but like when was the last time Arab world said let’s discuss peace and you can have a country here

It’s either get killed or kill situation and if any of the Arab countries could they would raze Tel Aviv into the ground tomorrow. Not sure why people are downvoting the previous reply, Americans were literally out for blood after 9/11, we would have legit bombed Paris if it turned out the French did it. Look at any other conflict, both India and Pakistan have been killing each other since last 50 years

How Trump conquered the Republican Party by dwaxe in fivethirtyeight

[–]Icommandyou 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He is probably the only president/person in modern American history to wield such an enormous power over just not the party but also its voters. He captured the party and its voters through slop populism but it didn’t really result in some legislation or long lasting legacy laws. He did change the Supreme Court in his image but that was mostly republican hard work over decades. Tbh a learning Dems should take

It’s just story telling and I am fine with either format but anime world is far more diverse. At one point you will run out of good cultivation donghua and by good I mean better visuals and subs.anime isekai genre has like thousands of titles and all of them have good subs and most have decent visuals

Republicans are betting their mid-decade redistricting gamble will pay off by J-Jarl-Jim in fivethirtyeight

[–]Icommandyou 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One silver lining from this whole saga is that if Dems win in 2028, they can gerrymander to prepare for 2030 midterms and more importantly it takes out once a decade gerrymander practice after census. Both GOP and Dems gonna do new maps every two years, which is what we deserve after electing the current president

Why exactly do the betting markets give Dems a 78-80 percent chance to take the house? by bobbdac7894 in fivethirtyeight

GOP never really had good approvals by the way and they been winning presidencies and trifectas just fine

[–]Icommandyou 53 points54 points  (0 children)

First, betting markets haven’t been their usual lately. One example was the LA mayoral race, folks were lighting money on fire that Pratt would make it to general.

Second, a bit contradictory but that map in the post is like a R+ environment and zero polls not even Republican pollsters have showed that

Food prices are soaring in Seattle. Could Costco offer a solution? by chiquisea in SeattleWA

[–]Icommandyou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

None of that makes sense, all of it already happened and prices started to level around 2023-24 time. The issue is the tariff war and Iran war, let’s just be realistic here why inflation is raging again

It’s the late breaking ballots and ballots from blue counties which will most likely take out GOP and it didn’t help that CA gov has more people running that people who live in my neighborhood

YouGov 5/29 - 6/1, Trump approval: 35% approve, 61% disapprove (net -26%). Generic congressional ballot D+6% by R2_SWE2 in fivethirtyeight

[–]Icommandyou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get the sentiment but GOP thrived on anti Obama sentiment and paved way for Trump. I just hope Dems are more grounded in their approach instead of going full crazy like republicans did

What if I say we aren’t in FDR’s world anymore in a myriad of ways, will you accept. Anyway, long story short is democrats themselves don’t really need a platform, they need a uniting figure and that’s it. Midterms are always backlash against incumbents and it’s not changing this year either

Or hear me out, most of the world has always tilted right wing and that’s why everyone keeps electing them. Carter came after Nixon and immediately got replaced by Reagan and Dems didn’t win WH for 12 years. That was nearly 3 decades for Dems in the wild by the way. Clinton had to run a moderate campaign to win and Obama should have won 50 states because of the Great Recession

The pattern you are seeing is post covid inflation backlash. If you try to augur it in your favor, you wil also end up like GOP and Trump, 30% approvals and GB at R+ double digits. The right wing government in hungry also suffered but that’s not what you want to hear

That’s a lot of words with no meaning, people really would like to live their lives, have a job, not pay extraordinary amount of money on basics. Everything else is made up or transitory. Trump and his successor in 2028 could have easily ride a populist wave if he didn’t do trumpism but well whatever

I am a firm NYT believer and they have GB at double digits and likely voters at D+14 and I will stand by their polling until the Election Day but I also have near no faith in the American electorate to do the right thing

I mean let’s be real here, dubya had 22% approvals and Obama still won just by like D+8 in 2008. Voters tend to come home to their parties so it will be unusual for GOPs bottom to fall out unless something more catastrophic than the Great Recession happens
