What does retaking the House and Senate say about American courage?

[Vegasrunner]

[BlackFalcon03]

Nothing really happens every mid term. Says more how little democrats won.

[Vegasrunner]

@BlackFalcon03 Please stay off Crack. Dems won house and Senate thats literally the entire thing.

[BlackFalcon03]

Exactly. Happens every mid term except two

• 1998: Democrats gained 5 seats during Clinton's term amid strong economic conditions and opposition to impeachment efforts.
• 2002: Republicans gained 8 House and 2 Senate seats under George W. Bush following the post-9/11 surge in patriotism and approval

[Vegasrunner]

@BlackFalcon03 it does not happen every midterm and the won like 35 seats that's no where close to normal.

[BlackFalcon03]

Every midterm

[Vegasrunner]

@BlackFalcon03 Delusion is one of the main reasons Republicans keep losing.

[BlackFalcon03]

Every midterm. Dems the facts

[832loverboy73]

Perhaps Yanks are awakening to the REPIGLIKKKSCUM's to install Fascism.

[BlackFalcon03]

@832loverboy73 you DemoKKKrats. Facism is a italian and hispanic thing anyway.

[832loverboy73]

@BlackFalcon03 And it's been tried in LOTS of other places, laddie.

[BlackFalcon03]

Like Canada

[832loverboy73]

@BlackFalcon03 No way, Jose.

[BlackFalcon03]

Jose was a fascist in spain right?

[832loverboy73]

@BlackFalcon03 Frankie.(Generalissimo Francisco Franco, Spain's Fascist dictator from 1936 to his 1975 death.)

[BlackFalcon03]

Yes a great man.

[832loverboy73]

@BlackFalcon03 I knew you'd believe that murdering POS was great. How do you like Hitler, pard?

[BlackFalcon03]

Thats what they were doing b4 Franco saved them from socialism

[832loverboy73]

@BlackFalcon03 Franco was a murdering POS who saved Spain from DECENCY, boy-o !!!

[FrodoVader007]

It happens often.
However, authoritarianism now appears inevitable

[exitseven]

nothing , it speaks to American stupidity.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Agreed. For the last 6 years Americans had to watch while Republicans burned the country down. Creating massive price increases while eliminating living wage jobs. Thankfully they woke up just in time for the mid terms but even that may be to late.

[exitseven]

President trump has been tryin g to expand business in the US by cutting taxes and imposing tariffs on foreign countries., The results speak for themselves with an estimated 5+GDP for 2026 and all four major stock indexes at near record highs.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven He's been a joke who has presided over one of the worse job markets and rising cost across the boards. He's literally one of the worse presidents in American history and luckily the American people validated that with their vote.

[exitseven]

He created a million private sector jobs and eliminated 350,000 government jobs. the unemployment rate has held at 4% in the last year. more Americans are working than at any other time in history and unemployment rates have been at record lows for many demographic groups. Wages are also rising in relation to inflation.
I suppose that the downwardly mobile gender studies majors are having a hard time paying their student loans. Many probably regret taking that year in Europe now that the bill is coming due.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven I think I see your confusion. A president doesn't create "private sector jobs" and eliminating 350K government jobs doesn't benifit the American people because those are actually living wage jobs with benifits. Unemployment calculates all working people, it does not calculate the quality of jobs created. Him ridding Bidens coatails doesn't help anyone when the cost of living is skyrocketing. You are correct the Bill has cone due, which is why so many people across the country rejected Republican leadership.

[exitseven]

Eliminating 340,000 jobs will help with the deficit. It will save billions of dollars.
Crating a business friendly environment by cutting taxes and cutting regulations creates the jobs. IT looks like the plan worked

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Starving people to death will also help keep population down doesn't make it a smart move. I agree that republicans have gone out of their way to cut taxes for the rich, however that doesn't help the middle, poor and working class at all. Looks like they took matters into their own hands and voted just in time to give themselves a fighting chance.

[exitseven]

@Vegasrunner I just got the biggest tax break I have got in my life and I am far from rich. All my kids are enjoying the big tax break too. This tax break was for the middle class. The middle class pays the most taxes so President Trump gave them the biggest tax cut.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Really how much did you receive in actual capital?

[exitseven]

Well, I got a 2900 dollar refund but I usually have to pay between 2 and 3K because I have the minimum taken out of my pay. I figure I paid $5000 less in federal taxes.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Lol thats not shit. You're comparing a few 1000 dollars to billions in tax breaks for the rich.

[exitseven]

yes, there are millions of middle class Americans that got tax breaks. It all adds up to billions.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Under Biden and Obama yes but not under Cheetoe majority of his tax breaks went to the 1%. He literally told u this.

[exitseven]

Obama caused taxes to go up. His programs like cash for clunkers caused the price of used cars to go up too, Biden really did not cause taxes to go up, instead he caused a cumulative 30% inflation. Everyone's savings accounts waas worth 30% less.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Obama's probably one of the greatest leaders in world history. He singlehandedly pulled the US out of another republican led depression. Biden was OK, but anyone is better than Cheetoe and his administration, just glad rest of the country recognized what waa happening.

[exitseven]

Obama tanked the economy with his anti business policies. It was stagnant the whole time he was president.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Nah he was great. Fixed the housing crisis, protected consumers against unscrupulous lending practices and made corporations pay their fair share. Hopefully America can find someone like him again. Only people who dont like Obama are redneck white boys like yourself still stuck in their racist pasts.

[exitseven]

He never fixed anything. He was busy with his apology tour and giving billions to Iran so they could set up a nuclear power facility.

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Fixed the economy, lending and America's image across the world. Just bucks that his successor screwed everything up.

[Pterodon]

Voting independent or Democrat says you’re a pussy

[Vegasrunner]

@Pterodon Or that you value money.

[Pterodon]

Democrats and independents have no courage at all. Remember Obama paying Iran to not bully us? They’re all pussies with a capital P

[Vegasrunner]

@Pterodon TBH I think its that juvenile rhetoric that led people to rejecting the republican party.

[Pterodon]

Would you tell your son to pay a bully?

[Vegasrunner]

@Pterodon I dont think anyone should pay cheetoe. Part of the problem America has is so many people caved under Trumps bullying that it left the country leaderless. At least now with actually leaders voted into position of power his dictatorship only has months to last.

[Pterodon]

You don’t have leaders. You elected sycophants to other countries

[exitseven]

@Vegasrunner Do you think you will pay less taxes next year? You will pay more and gas prices will be a lot more. Oil companies will stop investing in new wells becaue they do not know what the democrats will do. its gonna be the Bidnen regime on steroids. Biden was just senile, these peoole are just plain batshit crazy.

[Vegasrunner]

@Pterodon Agreed. Thats why its a good thing the American people got up got out and voted. What country do u live in?

[Vegasrunner]

@exitseven Well tbh I already paid more in taxes under cheetoe and a republican administration and obviously as you know gas prices have skyrocket since Biden left office. Perhaps Biden should have ran and beat cheetoe again but I understand why he didn't.

[moddy_the_mod]

A collective temper tantrum.
