the cities descending into anarchy, and property values cratering the cost of basic foodstuffs fuel not to mention rent,; १४/६/२४, १:१७ PM
RideSpaceMountain म्हणाले...: “The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever, and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them.”

– Old Turkish proverb

The democrats and deep state are the axe. Their voters are the forest. Will the trees wake up in time to see the axe in tree's clothing? Survey says, unlikely.; १४/६/२४, १:२४ PM

NCMoss म्हणाले...: He imagined he was connecting the dots between democrats sounding inauthentic but actually being authentic - nope.; १४/६/२४, १:५४ PM
Achilles म्हणाले...: He is wrong. Democrats support:

1. War everywhere.
2. Open Borders.
3. Policies that directly cause inflation.
4. Jailing Political opponents.
5. Censorship of dissent.
6. Blatantly Racist DEI policies.
7. Higher taxes on the middle and working class.

The problem for democrats nobody wants that so they have to lie and be dishonest about it.; १४/६/२४, २:१२ PM

I mean you can't say anything halfway positive about him without all the libs freezing up..lol..; १४/६/२४, २:२४ PM

Lance म्हणाले...: "It's not their policies, it's their messaging"

Isn't that exactly what Democrats have been saying since Bill Clinton? They "just need to get their message out"?

No, it's the policies. Defunding police, shutting down pipelines, banning cars, banning natural gas appliances, free money for banks, free money for Ivy League students, NATO is vital but Germany doesn't need to pony up, China isn't a threat they're a competitor, everyone must be allowed to vote multiple times whether they're a citizen or not, rule of law is important except when it comes to immigration, etc etc etc.; १४/६/२४, ३:०० PM

Sebastian म्हणाले...: "it sounds fake"

How so? Progs are completely open and sincere about their methods and goals. Accusing them of sounding fake is a phony objection. Sure, Joe and Kamala sometimes don't know what they're saying, but even with them their actions speak loudly and clearly.; १४/६/२४, ३:०५ PM

Jupiter म्हणाले...: I assume you are interested in this witless freak because he is a Negro, and some other Negroes apparently find him entertaining, or even thoughtful and informative, God help us, and Negroes are a significant population in this country, politically, culturally, and above all criminally, so of course you would care what this witless freak is babbling about. Charlamagne the God. And then we have Meghan Theeeeeeeee Stallion. And Cardi B, there's another cultural icon. I guess I should sing small, a lot of my fellow white people voted for F.

imTay म्हणाले...: "he dems have no sensible policies whatever."

The Democrats can't admit to their actual policies, so they are forced to say stupid stuff to try to get us to go along with implied bribery. It's the political version of "fine print."; १४/६/२४, ४:५७ PM

Charlemagne Tha Gods problem is his stupid name that will keep anyone from taking him seriously. Everything he said was wrong, but until he fixes his name, that other stuff doesn’t matter.

A lot of people take him seriously.

His shows get millions of views.

People here complain about the media but they don't even know about what is replacing media right now.

You all need to get out more. I don't agree with Charlemagne much but his show is more influential than the media that is typically discussed on this site.; १४/६/२४, ५:०४ PM
Old and slow म्हणाले...: So they have all of Hollywood, the media, and pop culture on their side, but can't manage to convey their message properly? Either they are truly morons or the message actually sucks.; १४/६/२४, ५:०७ PM
Mr. T. म्हणाले...: It's not the messaging. It's not the policies.

It's the lies and oppressions.
It's the diktats and fatwas.
It's the hypocrisies and injustices.

Those are all the democrats have now.; १४/६/२४, ५:०८ PM

Christopher B म्हणाले...: @Lance

I'm pretty sure that line of reasoning dates from Fritz Mondale's statement that both he and Reagan would raise taxes but he would tell the truth and Reagan would lie about it, and his subsequent 49 - 1 loss.; १४/६/२४, ५:५० PM

Iman म्हणाले...: Is it the lies, or is it the style?; १४/६/२४, ६:०२ PM
Lance म्हणाले...: @Christopher B

What does Reagan's landslide win in 1984 have to do with Democrats refusing to acknowledge that their policies have failed and their goals are unpopular? That Mondale had the same problem?; १४/६/२४, ६:०२ PM

Mason G म्हणाले...: "Democrats believe policies are good or bad based on the identity of the one doing them and whether that person/group had the right intentions. Actual results don't factor in the belief."

That's how it looks from here. I don't know how they keep pulling it off, but it sure seems to work for a certain subset of the population.

But then, just look at all the TDS that's out there- "Trump's literally Hitler" and "Trump wants to be a dictator"- that sort of nonsense. And people believe it even when it's the Democrats who are acting like nazis (Palestine, anyone?) and regularly talk about how they want to make fundamental changes (read: install Democrats as permanent rulers) to the way the government works. Example? They're perfectly fine with the Supreme Court when rulings go their way but when they don't, out come the calls to "rein in" a rogue court.

Bottom line- with Democrats, it's Calvinball always and everywhere, with them in charge of the rules.; १४/६/२४, ६:३१ PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: Leftists hide it all behind BS like "Contraception"

No one is banning contraception.

Abortion is not "women's health"

What happens if the aborted fetus is a girl? Is that women's health?; १४/६/२४, ६:३२ PM
Mason G म्हणाले...: "But with Democrats, even when they talk about the good things they've done, it sounds fake. And I know that they're capable of sounding real."

"Sounding real"? Shouldn't the goal be to "be real"?

Of course, when your policies suck toads, it's a bit of a challenge.; १४/६/२४, ७:१३ PM
n.n म्हणाले...: Secular priesthood. A mortal god, pethaps not. A token of the Democratic axis.; १४/६/२४, ७:२६ PM
n.n म्हणाले...: What happens if the aborted fetus is a girl?

Fetus, a technical term-of-art, socially distances abortionists from their victims, takes off the edge.

That said, a girl can be a "burden", too, equitable and inclusive. You've come along way, baby. #MeToo #HerToo; १४/६/२४, ७:३८ PM

"The Democrats definitely have an age problem. Those clips show it painfully. Plus, of course, they have a Harris problem."

They have a much bigger problem than that. They love to lecture us about things they know nothing about in condecending ways. They have people who desperately wish to be intellectuals but they don't have the intelligence. Rich is a good example of this. Cuck desperately want's to be taken seriously by people he believes to intellectualy superior to him. This has created a pathology that just makes him come accross as creepy. It sounds fake because they don't have a moral center from which to judge right and wrong.; १५/६/२४, ७:५४ AM
hpudding म्हणाले...: Abortion is not "women's health"

Where did you get your gynecology degree in forced term-pregnancy from? Is that like going to doula school?

What happens if the aborted fetus is a girl? Is that women's health?

Methinks someone needs more pet animals to adopt. An unmet maternal instinct is a terrible thing to redirect into other women’s vaginas. Spinsters make even more horrible forced-birth scolds than all the other anti-abortion demographics.

Here I was, thinking that for the last eight months Republicans were gifted a political goldmine with non-stop Qatari-funded college kids loudly proclaiming their far-left-wing vision of what taking down western civilization looks like. And then I pop back onto Ye Olde Althouse (typically right-wing) watering hole to see all the old idiotic obsessions are back out in full force, making their vision of “western civilization” just crazy enough to want to take down!

Crazy is a bad look for both sides.; १५/६/२४, ९:१३ AM
Kai Akker म्हणाले...: --- You all need to get out more. I don't agree with Charlemagne much but his show is more influential than the media that is typically discussed on this site. [Achilles]

This is 100% baloney, in my opinion, Achilles. First of all, it's too dumb to hold many people's attention. Second, even the numbers claimed are not high. Even though Althouse does visit many fading liberal sites from her own habits and proclivities, your claim still seems preposterous to me. Change my mind with some credible statistics, if you care to.; १५/६/२४, ९:५५ AM
Rusty म्हणाले...: Hi, puddin'
Abortion isn't going to be a winning subject for the Democrats this election. So your over the top emotional support isn't going to make a difference. The economy is. You've already lost on that one.; १५/६/२४, १०:१८ AM
