Guy on the Left: Let's create a scientific mechanism to make sure every vote counts. Guy on the Right: I'm going use every underhanded trick in the book so that my team wins regardless of voters.

@blazzing_fury2425 No, but let's be honest about who mostly uses the tactic. As well as who has been taken to court many times for various forms of voter suppression all across this country.

@CCasket So talking about an issue and making it a priority is somehow worse than not talking or doing anything about it at all... Got it. Typical Trump logic that doesn't need to make sense to anyone outside the bubble.

@blazzing_fury2425 It doesn't matter what side you're on. If you're not for getting rid of gerrymandering or the influence of big money in politics then you're against democracy, period. You can find people in both parties on either side of those issues, but the pressure to actually fix those things is mainly coming from the Left. It's not really anger to acknowledge reality. I don't really care about your label or your team, just get on the right side of the issue.

HIGH ENERGY They didn't "win" the Senate, they kept the Senate cause there weren't enough seats open. However they lost the house in one of the biggest landslides we've had in recent years. The disapproval rating and support for impeachment clearly shows what's going to happen in 2020. I've already bet one republican a $1000 that Trump wasn't going to win a re-election. I'd be happy to take your money to.

HIGH ENERGY Umm... we won quite handily last year.... 😂 Which is why there is an impeachment process right now because of the majority in the House. The Right often uses well paid think tanks to create a simplistic narrative that their gullible followers just fall right into. This sort of propaganda is repeated over and over in order to distract people from substantive arguments.

Facts not Feelings No we still would be complaining about the Electoral College, because most of us have actual principles. We've been complaining about it for many years even when Obama was in office.

@Argyles1 --" So gerrymandering for republican votes bad, importing Mexico for democratic votes good..." The difference is that there is actual evidence, court cases, and numerous instances of gerrymandering and voter suppression. However there is zero evidence for the space aliens and whatever other nonsense you're making up.
