If Rs want to argue that the bigger standard deduction and child tax credits should be kept, that sounds like a negotiating point. "Yeah, sure, let's go ahead and keep that part" the Ds can say, and then let the Rs say "Nooooo! That's not what we meant!" Like that would happen.

That's ... actually, pretty good.

It would get her an extra two or three percent in those rustbelt states. Which might be enough.

Can't use that one. #peniledeficient is the NRA unofficial motto.

I like those ideas. I like Elizabeth Warren, because she knows who’s in charge. The money. But I’d like her more if she were a lot nastier.

Like actions by an illegitimate President and an illegitimate Senate majority are ... um ... Illegitimate?

(Who would have been the Senate majority leader in 2017, based on Clinton's coattails?)

Those are both absolutely critical, so long as there are no loopholes. What about some basic broad spectrum laws that cover bad faith politicians, legislating against the will of the people, and no backsies? We need a way to keep from backsliding if we have a pendulum swing towards conservatism yet again.

I like finding a way to remove bad faith actors quickly. But how do you keep that from being spun against anything your opposition says about you?

This has always been cool. They even punch each other on occasion. But there should be a mandated punch noise and laughtrack after.

Of course they are projecting. But apparently there are a lot of dupable suckers who have no critical thinking skills or objective reasoning ability. They are “the mob”, and how can it matter if what you are accused of is false if nobody listens to why? There has to be a better way to set the rules, have better oversight and control that they are honestly adhered to, and that there are effective and reasonable consequences when they don’t. I’m not a politician or lawyer so I don’t know how to do that. But I’m pretty good at seeing logistical weaknesses. And I think the Trump presidency has made a good many more street corner logistics experts too.

These would get abused by Rs, though.

Look, Scrooge McDuck's money bin never seemed to have a negative impact on Duckburg's economy, so I don't understand why everyone thinks the GOP trying to accomplish the same thing in reality is so bad.
