I believe it would have happened if they would have left the abortion issue alone.

Biden said just 2 weeks ago the economy is "strong as hell".

Hell being the key word. Unfortunately I think Biden is right. The economy is strong enough to drag everyone through hell. We are already feeling the effects on our wallet. If the economy gets any stronger as hell then the wealthy will start to feel the effects while the poor are sent to more terrifying depths.

You are right!

Apparently more people wanted high prices, inflation, open borders, and more lawlessness.

If so, what do their votes tell you about the GOP’s ability to make a coherent argument (with solid candidates) against the things you listed above?

Epic fail 👍🏾

lol

The democrats have deliberately crippled the US and what does the US population do?

Vote more more crippling, apparently.

Makes sense to me.

People are still voting against Trump/MAGA.

People do not want a mad man dictatorship.

You really drank the left-wing media Kool-Aid. While Trump's personality leaves much to be desired, he was a competent leader.

I personally believe that Trump was an average to slightly above average President and a slightly less than average leader.

What I know for a fact based off his time so far is that Biden is a substantially below average President and substantially below average President.

That's how I interpreted that too.

It's sure close to hell.

Hope you don't need heating oil, and I hope you have public transportation available because prices are about to launch thanks to the emotional ignorant voting block.

1.5 trillion added to the debt in 2 years, and another trillion in 2023.

We are so screwed.

More people are hurt by high prices, than the inability to kill their unborn baby. Or....maybe not. Biden said just 2 weeks ago the economy is "strong as hell".

The thing is it’s about abortion, but it isn’t.
Maybe women are sick of men getting in our business.
I think the GOP took a risk with it and it backfired.

I think the Dems spun the issue in a way that you're getting emotional about.

It wasn't about man vs. woman, it was about state vs. federal.

Indeed. Like it or not, the spin worked well.

I personally think it’s a good sign. The echo chamber of ATS clearly does not represent what’s actually going on in this country.

They will never understand this. The world is moving on without them and their archaic ways.

Sincere question: What archaic ways?

a reply to: Klassified

Freedom and independence.

You know, archaic things.

Maybe it was about States rights at first but then stuff like this came out.

www.politico.com...

Missouri wants to stop out-of-state abortions. Other states could follow. The first-of-its-kind proposal from Missouri lawmakers would allow private citizens to sue anyone who helps a Missouri resident have an abortion.

Republican state Rep. Mary Elizabeth Coleman, who is pushing the Missouri policy as an amendment to multiple health bills, said it specifically targets a Planned Parenthood clinic in Illinois just across the river from St. Louis that opened in 2019 with the explicit goal of serving Missouri patients.

Not to mention Lindsey Graham writing a bill that would ban abortion at the federal level.

Money, fame, charisma, looks and knowing how to attract voters go a long way.

The smart and humble candidates who want whats best for the people generally do not get elected.

Yup, I cringe when I think of the amount of votes a kardashian or kanye would get.

Watching this over here, not with popcorn because it's like chewing polystyrene, so pork scratchings.

Here is the BBCs take on it all. Yes, I know, but any views on this from across the Pond?

God knows what that rant has to do with my response or the fact that the USA shares its own problems aka riots and violence where sports are concerned which is the page we were on there and of your creation no less.

Your all over the place now iamthevirus.

It's because there are violent extremists in the UK who can't keep their s#it together over a cricket match...

It's because they have no release, now if they could just pound a few clips out or pop off a few rounds once in awhile then you wouldn't have such absurdities in the UK.

Thanks for your sage advice.

What absurdities?

It seems those words have become open to interpretation among folks of a given persuasion.

Post-sporting event violence...

I could only imagine if Americans fought like after every football game, maybe we don't fight because we have release? maybe we don't fight and tear up the place because we know everyone is armed...

What happens to a ripple when it hits shallow water. Brandon, Hunter and Nancy better be prepared.
