If you feel the need to start a fight with me - don't hide behind BS. Just be brave and say what you have to say. 7 hours ago, GreatWhiteNorth said: Most of the time, I like to joke around and BS.

Across the entirety of the United States, I agree ‘no one’ would not be accurate. The rest of the post however is my point. Saying MAGA and truly meaning make America great are not the same thing. Being reluctant to say Make America Great Again is silly because it’s not doing so good right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrestlingRasta Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Theres no argument America has some issues. The essence in ‘Make America Great Again” is the idea that…..America is not great. Hogwash. I challenge anyone to get into the streets and the people of many other nations, and then come back and see if you still feel American is in the shitter. And for those that do, that’s fine. My question would be what are you doing to do your part? Are you active in working toward improving your community, state, region, nation as a whole? Or do you just think constantly bitching online over the ‘news’ you’re being fed is productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it ironic that @Ban Basketball has TDS and is losing his verdict due to BBS? Ban logically does not owe Bob Dole $1,000 and yet 35 forum members find him guilty of all charges. Emotional bias goes against Ban Basketball, much like it goes against Trump. Time is our friend for people to wake up. Quote Chamath: "I think that when Trump was elected, I was told that it was the end of the world, and that's what I thought. And I'd already underwritten him as an F, okay? And then, four years into the presidency, he was a C in my mind. And then, as I got a little distance away, I realized, no, hold on a second. This guy was like a B, B-plus. Like, he was pretty good. "But the further and further I get away from him and the less emotional I am, he did a pretty good job. He was a pretty good president." We need to behave more like Spock, rather than Romeo and Juliet, when casting one's vote between Trump and Biden. Well-informed voting is our best path forward. It isn't feeding the homeless and working for a non-profit... it's voting for leadership that will cancel lobbyists, who don't want war, who stop illegal immigration... and so on.

Tuberville isn’t blocking the vote, only unanimous consent. So though the instances you give may appear to be better handled without his objection, which he has every right to cast, they are not blocked. Always move the goal posts rather than admitting the challenge was satisfactorily completed. If you're honest you'd acknowledge the response rather than deflecting to another point. Admit you were wrong educate yourself and choose your words more carefully next time so you don't embarrass yourself again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people have different ideas of how to accomplish this. One wants universal health care and one doesn't. Guess which is which? One wants money out of politics so corporations and billionaires(that have little to no interest in the welfare of citizens, site every ecological disaster brought on my a company acting in its own interest before considering the rest of the state/country/world) can't buy elected officials and thus increasing the likelihood of their wealth and power going unchecked. One side wants elections to fair. How many state legislatures are gerrymandered to within an inch of their lives only to have a slim majority winning a VAST majority of positions(see NC, KY, WI, VA, TX). If their ideas were so great they'd win in 50/50 districts, do you think? Not that I think you'll engage at all on the topic but so that other people have something fun to read.

In reality, that time is fictional or imaginary. Come on Plasi...seriously?!?! So generalistic and oversimplified. For one you'd probably get a different answer from every single person when asked what does it mean to be a conservative or even what does "Make America Great Again" mean. Secondly, I have yet to meet a conservative that resists change and wants to move backwards. It is the philosophical/idealistic things that get people labeled conservative not a specific time period in our history. What you described is probably the absolute minority and fringe. If you and others who get their undies in a bunch over "Make America Great Again" I assume you get them equally in a bunch over Biden's "Build American Back Better"? My opinion, they both mean essentially the same. The majority of people want the US not only to continue to be the best but keep making it better.
