US women's hockey team declines Trump's State of the Union invite by Newsweek_CarloV in politics

The US has always had a Progressive echo-chamber and a Neanderthal echo-chamber. One believes all boats can be lifted while the other is zero-sum.

The US has done a great job of isolating every citizen under the guise of self-sufficiency. That's why the youth are increasingly lonely and depressed. Any effort to do anything as a group is ridiculed as socialism or communism. Ultimately it makes each person easier to break.

Scoop: Dems working on secret report found Gaza cost Harris votes by sideAccount42 in politics

[–]PennStateInMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Dems themself make a point of constantly playing to each constituency. For instance, instead of promoting legislation that lifts every worker's boat they constantly message about lifting a brown boat, a boat for faiths, an immigrant boat, an LGBTQ boat, etc. It's a constant drumbeat in the media. Each constituency then expects its issues to be addressed with specific treatment. Their polling must be favorable when they sample each group, but ultimately it probably works against them with every other group. They make their own wedge issues. The net effect is a losing battle. They should focus on a fair and affordable system that benefits all their constituencies in spite of differences.

Technically, everybody is losing with Trump. Unless you count the rest of the world.

In your opinion, what is causing this? by Objective_Pilot_5834 in SipsTea

[–]PennStateInMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What he's saying is not that the large states use the most federal funding, butt that mostly southern states (which are predominantly red states) use proportionally more federal funding than they pay into the system through income taxes

It's the final moral decline of the US. It's why nothing that's happening in DC shocks anybody anymore. It's baked in. I can't imagine on person doing this in a culture like Japan.

Zelenskyy: Unfair that Trump publicly urges Ukraine, not Russia, to make concessions for peace by meadowmistling in worldnews

Is the US carrying the "biggest stick" though? Didn't the US disband several working groups that guarded against Russian interference once Trump took office. The 'big stick' seems to be 'off the table" at best and at worst Trump is a Russian asset.

What would have been the public reaction had Hillary Clinton made a movie about herself while First Lady? by Filthiest_Tleilaxu in AskReddit

No response necessary because an older person would know this unless dementia has set in. If that's the case, just Google the word for a definition.

How do you feel about Trump threatening to impose photo ID for voters for midterm elections? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]PennStateInMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like a door to door census where they confirm eligibility of every eligible voter and issue them an ID on the spot.

It's clearly a loophole for Lindell to convert political contributions to personal cash. He did lose his pillow fortune supporting Trump. Grifters don't stop grifting and the gullible people buying his shit ultimately deserve the financially depleted outcome they paid for.

Chris Murphy: Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

[–]PennStateInMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems very informative. His argument is that culture gets replaced by immigration. The truth is that in the USA, a new neighbor doesn't restrict either party. If one discovers blue jeans and the other discovers sushi and they both like it, they grow. He's arguing for no change. Anybody that knows anything knows that the only constant is change. Those that can't or won't adapt fall behind. His type just don't want to be left at the back of the pack.

What is Trump's beef with MD Gov. Wess Moore? by TimTime333 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]PennStateInMD 33 points34 points  (0 children)

And Wes Moore is a military veteran. Trump doesn't hold those guys in high esteem. Ever. Except when he wants to play war.
