  1. Why are the people who went into hysterics over Russiagate the same people who think foreigners should vote in American elections?

  2. Kamala's VERY likely to emerge on top, in my opinion. In the primaries, at least. She's the only one in the field with any charisma, and she knows how to play a crowd. She's the only Dem in that field who looks even slightly formidable, making her look kind of special, just by contrast to the below-average competition. I still don't think she has a chance against Trump. There's too much low-hanging fruit on her prosecutorial back trail. Trump will win a lot of points when he brings up how much joy she took in sending guys to prison for long stretches for a few grams of rock cocaine.

  3.  TheWin200000  : The plain fact of the matter is that if you show up at an emergency room, badly hurt or deathly ill, you're not going to be turned away by an American hospital. That's the thing. We've always just taken care of people and let the government and the insurance companies sort things out. When Democrats whine about the "uninsured" and the "underinsured," they're being pretty disingenuous. If you haven't a farthing, hospitals still will care for you. It's when you make just enough to eat, but not enough for insurance that they screw you. Under our system, you're better off just not working at all, or just showing up without citizenship. That's the thing about Obamacare that's so phony. The system was already dominated by government, with bureaucrats setting prices in negotiations between insurance companies, hospitals, and self-anointed kings called "civil servants." What could go wrong? Obamacare just formalized and tweaked a few things to try to make it solvent and quit kidding ourselves that our system isn't already largely socialized, with more and more decisions being made by 3rd parties, rather than doctors and patients. Other than making a blatant stab at sucking more money out of everybody (who works for a living) 's pockets for health care, Obama wasn't really doing that much that was philosophically different from what we'd already bought into. Conservatives whined, but the health care system is a nightmare web of regulations, government parasites, and a slow but steady decrease in the earnings of the people whose skills make everything the hospital does possible: the doctors, themselves. You see that $100,000 medical bill? Well, the surgeon who performed the operation got about $600 of it. Our best and brightest are going to stop going into the medical profession, which used to offer wealth and status as reward for the sacrifice and years of training. Now a pumper on an oil rig is making about as much.

  4.  @monkeygraborange  : It'll work on most Democrats. You wait and see. They're like Charlie Brown and the DNC is Lucy. They act all progressive to win the nomination from the hard-left base, and from that day forward, they'll start talking like centrists. If elected, they go right back to the original promises they made in the primaries. For Democrats, "moderation" is just something you pretend to practice to get elected. When elected, you set out to grow government and erode individual rights. They don't want to SOLVE problems in the inner city. Without those problems for them to get ELECTED to solve, they wouldn't get elected! They WANT blighted neighborhoods, because they OWN those neighborhoods!

  5.  Stanley Jedrzejczyk  : Dems have to know this plan is doomed. Within 1 or 2 generations, those immigrants will be voting Republican, because they'd rather work and prosper than sit on their asses and subsist.

  6. Buttigieg has no gravitas. Harris and Biden can look the part. But Biden's gone to seed, as has Sanders. Sanders came along about 20 years too soon for a serious run at president. Sad for him, because there are more openly socialist voters than ever before. if Democrats hadn't gotten into a "Who's crazier?" contest, they'd probably own the center and center-left. But on the brink of total domination, they started holding Oppression Pageants and donning vagina hats, screaming their outrage at a society that's more tolerant of them than they are of it, a fact of which these totally un-self-aware morons are oblivious. They're PISSED that a bruthuh got a job. They ignore the immigration crisis, and then turn around and blame it on the guy who's been telling them there's an immigration crisis since taking office. And on the purely partisan-politics side of things, the Russiagate investigation has wrapped up, and now the way is clear for the Trump administration to actually investigate the investigators, who by most indications, lied their heads off to obtain warrants to spy on a presidential campaign and later, a sitting president, after Trump prevailed, in spite of the fix being in. I think history is going to show that careerist politicians and bureaucrats became so arrogant during this period of time, that not only did they flout the law, but they were downright stupid about it! Can you imagine their carelessness with electronic communications? Let me ask you this. Did you ever watch HBO's "The Wire?" In a Byzantine game of cat and mouse between police and drug gangs, the systems of electronic countermeasures arrived at by common Baltimore street thugs were far more sophisticated and disciplined than these clowns who supposedly represent the cream of the crop. Can you imagine being in one of the very top offices in the federal government, texting your girlfriend on the company phone, saying the shit that Strzok said? What was he? #2 in counter-intelligence in the FBI? And Hillary, as sec'y of state, with her own private server in her residence, in violation of laws and regs she SHOULD have been trained to follow and followed her training! I think she decided she didn't need those trainings, and nobody argued with her. That might be the entirety of it, and everything else the machinations of cover-up, to avoid embarrassment of everybody around her who was probably too intimidated to say anything.
