No, but they’re working very hard to MAKE them swing states….again, it ain’t rocket science.Ibanez wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 12:37 pmTexas and Wisconsin are swing states?CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 12:27 pm Anyone want to venture a guess as to which swing states will be receiving the bulk of unvetted Afghan refugees?

Re: The Official "Making America Woke Again" Thread
Dems have been talking a lot about Texas turning blue. Trump won Wisconsin by a few thousand votes in 2016. Biden "won" Wisconsin by a few thousand votes. That makes it a swing state.Ibanez wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 12:37 pmTexas and Wisconsin are swing states?CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 12:27 pm Anyone want to venture a guess as to which swing states will be receiving the bulk of unvetted Afghan refugees?

...also I LOVE how Americans care about the Afghan people now. Y'all made immigration harder for years and years but now we've got politically convenient sob stories.
Hell we have Republican congresscritters bitching about ditching allies when they voted not to expedite these things.
Face it, the US used Afghans when convenient and kept them there because it was in our interest. Plus they were brown and Muslim.

All this "oh we must save our allies" is such bullshit coming from the "stay out of my country" crowd. Maybe the current admin could have processed more had the backlog grown almost 4x under Trump.
But I'm sure if visas were immediately expedited under Biden, you'd all be bitching about letting these people into our country. (which some Republicans are actually doing now).

Re: The Official "Making America Woke Again" Thread
You mean ‘some’ elected donks don’t agree with it? And even thiose that don’t agree with it (I’ll grant a majority) most of them stayed awfully silent last yr when the Defund rhetoric was at its peak.Ibanez wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 12:26 pm
Wait - so it doesn't matter that the elected politicians of the party do not agree with the defund the police movement? I don't think that is quite reasonable or rational. Does that mean that every bullshit, batshit crazy thing that comes from a group of conservatives is be default the position of the entire GOP?
There’s been local and state donk pols (and some in the House) in blue cities across the country beating the ‘Defund the Police’ narrative for over a year now. Course the rhetoric is a fraction if what it was a year ago, but the damage is already done- see exploding crime rates all across the country. And that will be one of several things that will cost donks seats (local and state level but also House) in 2022.
They’ll be other factors that will cost donks seats too besides the crime wave- inflation, border crisis, Afghanistan, once every decade redistricting since conks control majority of state houses, etc.

Re: The Official "Making America Woke Again" Thread
Wrong- go look up 3 posts ago.
I said the majority of elected don’t. But most of them stayed silent when it the rhetoric was at its peak. And there are a majority of donks in some blue cities that believe in it, because a majority voted for it in a # of cities.

Re: The Official "Making America Woke Again" Thread
He and his advisors are fucking delusional.
Middle of the worse foreign policy crisis in 50 years and he comes out today to talk about COVID. Nary a WORD about Afghanistan.
Unbelievable if I hadn’t witnessed it myself.
And then to hear clips from his interview with ABC….holy SHIT. Just…..holy SHIT.

The network needs to release that interview in its entirety. They released the transcript only but the video is going to show Stef coaching Biden through it.SDHornet wrote:And takes no questions yet again.

Well, getting to report from a war zone is a big boost to the career. Heck, you can argue that CNN as a network cut their teeth on being one of the only networks on the ground in Baghdad when the First Gulf War kicked off. Journalists like to report on things, and war gives them many things to report on.
