SlyFoxx4Life: You see if you weren’t a fool suffering from chronic Trump derangement syndrome you would have done some research on the person you are taking to before spewing your ignorance all over the place. This was my comment to someone here two days ago. Does this sound like the response of someone invested in or with a cultish support of Trump?
I am conservative and would support whoever the Republican candidate is because even a “republican dog” will do a better job of running the country and the economy than the lunatic democrats. But I have said clearly several times on this forum that I think DeSantis is the future of the party, which he is, and republicans should start thinking of moving away from Trump.
You guys are sooooo obsessed with this man you think everyone who espouses conservative views is automatically a Trump sycophant. I don't know if they used this man to swear for you guys or something.
Again if you were not a Trump deranged lunatic you would know that my comment about trump which got you all wet in your panties was only because someone asked me if I had a list of candidates he endorsed that lost and I said I don’t have but I heard in passing that overall more candidates he endorsed won than lost. I didn’t say anything about if the candidates that won were in R+ or D+ districts because that was not the question. I was asked a general question and gave a general response and that’s what got you in your feelings because of your obsession and derangement for the man. take your own advice and seek urgent help for your TDS. It’s really a dangerous sickness.
I won’t even bother responding to the specifics of your post because you have already proven to be an emotional fool not capable of a rational debate or even with it for that matter. You should probably do more reading and less running the mouth. Study the economies under Democrat Presidents vs. Republican. The economy always does better under Dem. presidents. Not even close. In fact name one policy in the last 50 years the Republicans have passed/advocated that moved America long? Iraq War? Terrible Covid management? last Great Recession? All Republicans. But we don't even need the past to see what happens under Republican Economics policies. Just look at UK's trashed economy. When Lisa Truss came to power Republicans in the US cheered that she was going to USHER in Conservative Economic Polices.. What happened? We all know. But back to you. Here is your post that started all this. It's the same BS use of stats in order to obscure a greater point that TRUMP lost nearly all if not all the elections that mattered. It seems to be your argument style. Blur reality in BullSh*t. SlyFoxx4Life: Nah Trump endorsed way too many candidates. I heard over 200. I even heard far more candidates he endorsed won than lost. Like 80% won. But of course media only focus on the hard right “MAGA” candidates or “election deniers” that lost. And FYI. Really ask yourself who has Trump Derangement Syndrome. Trump has cost you the House in 2018, the Senate in 2020, the Presidency in 2020, the Senate in 2022 and led to a close House in 2022 and maybe even a loss. And through all that Republicans stuck with him, doubled down and tripled down. And on the other hand he has HELPED Dems. If someone keeps hurting you yet you can't move on, YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. It's like Stockholm syndrome. The Republican party and it's Abuser Trump. |

timay1: Me sef surprise because the democrats keep accussing the supreme court of banning abortion, which they did not. Even instates that doesnt allow abortion, they had clauses that allowed abortion on medical grounds, like life threatening illness, ectopic pregnancy etc, and some states only banned at after the pregnancy is some months old, which means they can still have abortion at early stage like 1-3 months pregnacy, which majority of abortion generally happens.
So how the Democrats actually brainwashed their so called 'Educated' voters that the Republicans are outrightly banning abortion is a mystery to me Odd that you are talking about brainwashed voters when MOST of this post is wrong. I think you spelled Abortion right. No-one accused them of banning abortion. They accused them of taking away protections for Abortions, effectively allowing some states to BAN them. And there are some states that tried to outright BAN them WITHOUT any exceptions and some that have (Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi etc etc.) Here's a list: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/us/abortion-laws-roe-v-wade.htmlHow would you feel if say the Supreme Court upended the away Federal Civil Rights Protections, allowing each state to determine whether it was legal to kill Black people? |

SlyFoxx4Life: Shut the fvck up. the only one regurgitating here is you who is regurgitating liberal media talking points. You made a factually incorrect statement that ALL Trump endorsed candidates in constituents that were not 80% republican lost and that is provably false as you just proved yourself by mentioning JD Vance which means even you know not ALL lost.
Also, off the top of my head, I can think of Joe Lombardo who won the governors race in Nevada with Trumps endorsement. Nevada is not 80% republican. I am sure if I dig deeper I will find many other examples on the state and federal level. If you had used the right qualifiers like “many” or even “most” of his endorsed candidates in close races lost then I would not have argued with you.
So next time learn proper use of English before you come here and accuse people of regurgitating. I’m just stating facts you’re the one that’s being emotional and politically biased. Emotional and Political Biased? Coming from Mr. "Shut the fvck up". You seem to be really invested in Trump. Why? We are talking about races(seats-Senate Seat or House seat) with national implications. Even JD Vance was in a +8 Republican State. A Republican dog could have one that race. But Trump chose JD Vance and Republicans had to dump money into the state, money they could have used in other states. But this isn't my take or the "Liberal Media" take on it. This is the take of the majority of Republican Leaders and Republican Far Right Media. Even Rupert Murdoch and Fox news trashed him. Here is Rubert Murdoch's paper on Trump:https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FhKwILSWYAAeq2c?format=jpg&name=smallAnd here is Republican Senator Bill Cassidy on it.His words: "those most closely aligned with the former president [Trump] underperformed"Yea, definitely a liberal media thing. At some point you have to realize how dumb repeating "liberal media" makes you sound. But let's listen to you over all the empirical evidence. The fact that you can't see this is your emotions getting in the way. Your support of Trump is cultish. You are in CULT. GET HELP. |

SlyFoxx4Life: He didn’t lose ALL of them. And it doesn’t change the statistical fact that more people he endorsed won than lost which is what I said, okay? Outside of JD Vance in Red Ohio, who else of significance did he endorse that won? The stat you mentioned is meaningless, but of course, you're regurgitating something Trump said as a means to justify his losing. |

Helpout12345: There's no single sweet marriage that doesn't have fights, misunderstanding, challenges. When those fights, misunderstanding happen, the father and mother must not expose their children to it. Keep it away from them.
Of course, it will send bad messages to the children.
I see some women that will purposefully sit their children down and be talking down on their husbands and vice versa whether in marriage or in divorce.
If adults in a marriage understand that they must keep their children out of their marriage challenges, there will be nothing that will affect the children psychology.
This is why in some countries, if children protection services learned that parents fight in front of their children, they can take the children away from the parents. These aren't normal relationship fights, this is abusive behavior. And you don't need to talk to children about it for them to see, understand it, internalize it and then normalize it. |

Helpout12345: I remember your story then. The elders did not advise you to scatter your marriage then. We told you to insist on STD tests and ensure he is no longer cheating before you continue having unprotected sex with him.
From your new narrative, he had agreed to conduct STD tests, he had come back home. The pregnancy outside is a new thing now.
About the pregnancy, I think that happened before he decided to change and come back home. I want to say it's part of his mistakes while outside.
I know you are hurting to learn about this now but don't take a decision while under anger or emotion.
If he had truly changed from cheating, you people can start rebuilding your home.
The children suffer the most in a broken home. You even have girls. I can tell you most ladies raised by single mothers end up single mothers when they grow up. Think deeply about your children welfare now and in future before you use emotion to scatter your home.
Lastly, be careful of advise you take from your fellow women irrespective of their age or status because most of them will advise from emotional perspective or outrightly lie to you when they advise you. And what do you think happens to girls who continuously see their mom's abused? Or sons who think that behavior is normal? What type of men/woman do they end up becoming? Have you ever heard of generational curses? |

Ladyhippolyta88: I am telling you
I keep saying Desantis does not have a national appeal but since he won Florida with 20 points let him run against Donald that has been keeping the party afloat because they have no good policies to run on. That's why it's not a political party anymore but a mere cult of despicable people who are quite large to help them win elections. Trump endorsed candidates won their primaries it seems the GQP has forgotten already. It's a cult. And I was concerned about what it portends for the US. This election allayed some of that. But, wow, there are large swarths of the US populace who seem to be mentally unwell. |

He's not charismatic like Trump. Trump is that schoolyard bully and DeSantis seems like the type to get bullied. In a one on one debate it's going to be like Trump's debate with Marco Rubio. The Dems gave the GOP an out from Trump during the impeachment after the attack on the Capital. Instead, they tripled down on Trump. And make no mistake, Trump will RUN like his life depends on it. Because he will be INDICTED and this may be his only choice to push it back and offset it some or make it a political with hunt at trial. |

raumdeuter: Democrats do gerrymandering as well as Republicans so much that Illinois was given a F the worst possible grade There are 50 states. Add them all up. If IL is the only well gerrymandered Democratic run state, cumulatively what does that matter? This isn't rocket science, just addition and subtraction. At this point you're being purposefully obtuse. |
Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by IjeBos(m): 8:59pm On Nov 10, 2022 |
raumdeuter: See below
Democrats in Illinois, meanwhile, have done all they can to exert control and ensure it benefits their candidates for elections through 2030. Even with Illinois losing a seat due to population loss, the map was drawn to create a congressional delgation of 14 Democrats and three Republicans starting in 2022, a change from the current 13-5 split. The Princeton Gerrymandering Project, a nonpartisan group that evaluates maps, gave Illinois’ maps an “F” grade, saying they give Democrats a significant advantage and are “very uncompetitive.”
https://apnews.com/article/elections-race-and-ethnicity-philanthropy-barack-obama-state-governments-73d75629c440a971c65e9016476ed869 I'm sitting here trying to figure out what your point is, then realized you really don't understand how gerrymandering works vis-vis US elections and keep posting the first link you find. Here is a quick primer. After the US Census (every 10 years), each state gets or loses US House members depending on population size. So, each state takes that time to redraw their districts. So if say State A loses 1 House member and now had 6 instead of 7, they have to redraw 6 districts from 7. So the State Legislatures can draw it anyway they want per their State constitution (The Federal Constitution allows for states to run their elections anyhow they see fit, but Fed. lawmakers can make laws about it if they want). Imagine a state that is 50 percent Dems and 50 Reps. Ideally the districts should be 3 Dem and 3 republican. Some states would instead extremely partisan gerrymander them and draw districts to make it 5-1 in their favor. Now, by doing that that theoretically dilutes the votes of the other party and their voters. So, Dems sued under equal protection grounds (all votes should count equally) and it went to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court stacked with Republicans said it was not ILLEGAL. So.. In this election, the Dems though they think it is immoral, fought back and tried some extreme gerrymandering of their own. They weren't that successful, as some Dem controlled states filled with moral minded Jurists shut it down (NY). The Dems made some ground but in the end Republicans still had an edge. That was one of the purposes of the voting rights bill that the Dems tried to pass. But Republicans don't really like Democracy, they just like Power. |

raumdeuter: The fact is everyone redistrict. This is from Illinois Yes, every man has a ***** but mine is larger. You get how that works? It's not a question if both parties redistrict, it's a matter to what extent. That Republicans do it to a larger degree isn't novel.. maybe to you. In fact I think Dems should match them, until the republicans find it hurts them and agree to pass the Freedom to Vote Act which the Dems wrote to ban it or something similar . |

George W Bush expanded control over both houses in 2002 midterms
Republicans are winning more seats in Congress they are in a better spot today than they were before the election
Senate still remains toss up at this moment Yes, both parties Redistrict, but the Dems don't do it at the level of Republicans. In fact even when Dems do try it the Courts in Dem states are much less likely to allow it then those in Republican states (Google NY redistricting). Dems believe more in actual Democracy than Republicans. Bush's win was most likely and outlier due to 9/11 and rallying around the President. Based on where everything stands, Dems will most likely pick up both Nevada and Arizona. But you are partially right, Arizona is less of a toss up, Kelly is up by 5% but by Mon. next week, we'll know for sure. |

SlyFoxx4Life: Keep dreaming. You are losing the house even CNN has acknowledged it. Biden's destructive agenda is about to be stopped dead in its tracks lol.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a slim or large Republican majority. like I told someone here; wave elections simply don’t happen in American politics anymore because the country is way too polarized and tribal now. We will never see another truly landslide victory for either party à la Ronald Reagan in 1984 or Richard Nixon in 1972.
So all that matters now is that Republicans are taking the house, likely the senate and can effectively end the senile old dunce’s legislative agenda and finally begin real investigations into him and his degenerate son’s shady foreign business ties using the same template set by the DemocRATS over the past 4 years on how to use the legislature to harass a president’s family.
Keep watching kiddo. Things about to get real interesting for y’all. The Republicans will barely win the House with all their gerrymandering (i.e effectively they drew districts so that they couldn't lose), in a year with incredible inflation and high crime. In fact, to tell you how badly they did, they had already picked up enough seats based on that cheating gerrymandering before the elections even happened. So, if the projections stay where they are right now, they would in effect have LOST seats. This is probably the best showing of any President in the midterms in 50 years (Presidents generally lose dozens of house seats in the midterms). I think that tells you all about the what AMERICANS think of how CRAZY the Republican party has become and the people they ran in the elections. The fact you are shamelessly still talking about the SON of the President who does not work for the administration and was not elected to do anything and not ACTUAL policies you prefer the Republicans enact to address things like INFLATION, ENERGY, etc. is s symptom of that CRAZINESS and the reason Republicans didn't do better. Your party has become disconnected from Reality. |

Which country has a state run media. Which country doesn't have an open internet? Not the US. Btw, I get a lot of my Russian news from Russian TV news. It's very useful info if you first understand that they are State run and Russian propaganda.
