US Politics Thread

Can I ask another open question to yourself and everyone else willing to engage it (not my question but one I've seen of late)?

In the States (I don't know if it's the same here), if a woman is pregnant by a matter of early weeks and she is, unfortunately murdered, the perpetrator is charged with a 'double homicide'?

Why would that be the case if a foetus is 'not viable' before a certain age of weeks?

Just letting you know that I have seen this post but am unable to reply right now (am dealing with a personal issue).

Will try to do so later.

You won’t even need to vote. It’s already priced in and DeSantis will win. The two party system is a complete sham. Until we go to a populist vote (we won’t. Ever) it’s pretty pointless voting during presidential cycles.

Agreed. In a sense my vote doesn't really matter. I live in a State that doesn't count for Presidential elections. Local, county and school elections are more likely to have an effect on my life and that of my family. I know who's going to win my State.

You can say vote in the local elections, which do matter, but with the gerrymandering that’s almost pointless as well (generally speaking, meaning in almost all districts). You can say primary the constituents where that party is locked in, but again that’s generally pointless as well because the establishment will just pump endless money into campaigns to combat the grass roots movement.

Some truth in that. But I don't think it's that bleak. Nor do I think it's in the best interest of the Country when far Right or Left candidates primary the incumbents. We forget that congress is a body that works on compromise. When you vote in Far right and left ideologues, what you get are people who will never compromise. And this is to the detriment of everyone.

We’re a center right country anyway (moving far right) so you won’t have to stress much about politics moving forward. :-/

Maybe we are a Center Right Country. I'm not so sure we are moving Far Right though.

That's just a bizarre ramble.

"better not testify" - not his mate any more then. Funny how everything is a lie except TrumpSpeak.

I'm also assuming that DiCaprio might issue a request that Agent Orange never speaks of him again.

Everything he's said and written since he first started to run for President was a bizarre ramble. It's taken some people longer than others to realise this.
