Official LRC President Joseph R Biden Thread

Good lord...

Without the electoral college it would be a blue house and a blue presidency. The senate would be powerless and the small states would be subject to the whims of California and New York. Why is this so confusing for you?

What's wrong with one person, one vote is it flies in the face of our constitution and it subjects small states to the whims of the larger states...

The state that produces the most welfare recipients is California. The state that has the most welfare recipients per capita is New Mexico. Both blue. The state that spends the most on welfare recipients per capita is Maine. Blue.

The poorest areas in red states are DEEP blue cities.

Also worth noting that the poorest red states are states that were run by Democrats for 150 years and are still recovering from their 100% Democrat slave economies.

The richest state is California. It was deep red until the 1980's and has been in decline ever since.

Maybe someday you'll be smart enough to understand that argument is a thing for a reason.

95% of the violent crime in red states like Mississippi and New Orleans and Missouri and Indiana happen in deep blue cities. The broken homes are majority democrat.

Not to mention the colossal stupidity it takes to think that once a state becomes 51% one color or the other that the majority becomes responsible for 100% of the outcomes in the state.

"If you're upset about accusations of witchcraft then you just outed yourself as a witch"

Trump started the whole blue state vs red state thing as a way to avoid blame and point fingers. If something bad happens in a blue state, you blame the democrats. If something bad happens happens in a red state, you blame any democrat in that state for the issue. It's especially effective on people like you who are predisposed to think every single issue plaguing America can be traced back to one political party.

You’ve got to be kidding me. Right wing political violence has killed and injured far far more people. Right wing violence has been the number 1 terrorist force in America. Worse then Muslim fundies.

trumpies: 267 attacks or plots

Sensible people: 66 plots or attacks.

wapo:

Since 2015, right-wing extremists have been involved in 267 plots or attacks and 91 fatalities, the data shows. At the same time, attacks and plots ascribed to far-leftviews accounted for 66 incidents leading to 19 deaths.

Lol. You think a group that carried out 66 plots or attacks are "sensible people."

There he goes again,making stuff up.

trumpies don’t have to tell the truth. They are living on another plane of consciousness where the truth is whatever they want it to be.

So you admit that Rs cannot win majority votes and therefore have to manipulate the electoral system to stay in power? What makes Igy a more important person than someone living in California? Because he despises LGBTQ people?

And here are the states that most depend on the federal government.

Nobody manipulated the electoral system. It's been that way since the founding, and always will be. Don't blame Republicans for being smarter about which states they need to campaign in to win.

Do you not consider voting laws and gerrymandering to be manipulating the electoral system?

what if I told you that when Trump 'controlled' the DOJ, the FBI, the CIA and the military he called the Dems fascists.

Would you care? Would Dems care? Nah.

Rs FREAK OUT when called fascists by a D president. Because the truth hurts.

But no one cares when a R president does it in reverse becuase it's just stupid and Rs say all kind of false stupid things. This is just one more.

Sometimes I feel the entire US political system is based on Ds getting punched in the mouth and turning the other cheek because the Rs are insane and violent.

Here's trump calling Ds fascists when president but you won't care.

1/2: In 2020, Trump called Democrats "fascists" in '20 while surrounded by military officials.
No one remembers it bc Dems didn't feel threatened by his false claim.
Today, M'AGA Republicans are angry at President Biden for a similar remark. Because they know it's true.

Yeah. The Democrat's never freaked out about anything Trump said. They were always civil and level-headed

"Democrats FREAK OUT when accused of rigging the election. Because the truth hurts."

Thats how u sound

Biden made that very clear in his speech. The Dems will use everything at their disposal to wage war against the Trump movement. Every weapon, every means necessary, whether legal or lethal. The Trump movement leaders/elites will have to adjust accordingly to the asymmetric warfare.

If you think that started with Trump you're absolutely delusional.

Both sides do it to be sure.

If only there were a way to tell...

Which states are having a max exodus of citizens? If blue states are so great people would be flocking to them to get in on the good times and gravy train.

The top 5 destination states people are moving to are Texas, Florida, Arizona, North Carolina, and Georgia. All red states.

The 5 states losing the most population are Pennsylvania, Michigan, California, Illinois, and New York.

Reality doesn't care about your predisposition to defend your party at all costs. The facts clearly show that blue states are less desirable.

Gerrymandering predates the founding. Gerrymandering really took off in the US when Democrats figured out they could use it to keep those pesky blacks from having a say in government. Then the Democrats moved on to poll taxes because it was easier and more effective.

Wanting to ensure that the people voting are who they say they are and that they only vote once is an idea Democrats vehemently oppose. Why?

Democrats say black people are too stupid to get IDs. Actual black people say "of course I have ID".

How Gerrymandering Began in the US

Long before it got its name, Gerrymandering was already happening in the United States.
