  • Trump just realigned the entire political map. Democrats have 'no easy path' to fix it.

  • The US political system has been destroyed by money. Many other western democracies are so much healthier than in the US because there's very little money in politics.

  • US judge tosses Illinois’ ban on semiautomatic weapons, governor pledges swift appeal

  • Not sure what you're talking about.

  • No, Democrats have to get a hold on the immigration issue. The only countries in this world where progressive policies actually thrive is where leftwing parties have adopted stricter immigration stances (e.g. Denmark). There's no way around it.

    Edit: Sure, downvote and keep losing

  • Rosen wins Nevada 2024 Senate election, CBS News projects. See the race results.

  • Better than any R, which would have been the alternative. Don't be a single-issue voter. That's what put Trump back in the WH.

  • Perception is king. If people feel poor, even if they are not poor, they are poor.

  • Trump’s win brings uncertainty to borrowers hoping for student loan forgiveness

    Jump

  • I don't think they can reverse anything after the fact. That money is gone. But they can definitely halt any new forgiveness.

  • Millions at risk of losing health insurance following Trump's victory

    Jump

  • Well, don't complain. Trump's billions for billionaires will eventually trickle down to you. Just kneel and hold your hand out. I promise, it will come eventually.

  • Trump will name more conservative judges. He may even pick a majority of the Supreme Court.

    Jump

  • SCOTUS has been McConnell's main focus his entire career for this very reason. And, unfortunately, he's been extremely successful. It will have consequences for decades if not generations.

  • Trump’s win brings uncertainty to borrowers hoping for student loan forgiveness

    Jump

  • He did everything he possibly could but was derailed by Republicans in red states. He didn't give up after the first setback and helped millions get relief. Did he get everything he wanted? No. But he did do a lot. But that's all over now with Trump incoming and a Republican Congress.

  • Trump will name more conservative judges. He may even pick a majority of the Supreme Court.

  • And it will have repercussions for decades and decades. Many, even many younger people, will now not see any changes in the overall makeup of SCOTUS in their lifetime.

  • White evangelical voters show steadfast support for Donald Trump’s presidency

    Jump

  • Problem is that almost all people who rise to power fit the description, more or less. What's more disappointing to me ia that evangelicals are willing to completely undermine their own Christian witness by submitting to a leader who is, literally, the exact opposite of what they otherwise preach when they choose a leader, all for a few pieces of political red meat. I can't take anything they say seriously.

  • Devastated Harris voters conclude America just hates women as Trump wins again

  • What another Trump term could mean for student loan relief

    Jump

  • That's probably the only thing I can't really imagine.

  • What another Trump term could mean for student loan relief

    Jump

  • He's already stated his plans to reinstate the debt and add retroactive interest.

    When and where did he say that?

  • Trump wins.

    Jump

  • "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

  • Poll: Harris has massive lead among swing state college students

    Jump

  • Definitely not. I hope the younger generations learn their lesson and learn to to actually show up to vote if they get the chance to vote again. I'm not holding my breath.

  • Trump wins.

    Jump

  • So, I always thought it was just a mean bully thing to say, but, as a group, Americans really are dumber than a bag of rocks.

  • That's all well and good, but there's just something fundamentally wrong with this country. I love Jon Stewart, but I'm not sure the US can actually be fixed. If you're not a white evangelical man right now, you're in for four years of hurt and many of Americans did it to themselves. And the unfortunate truth is that four years of hurt won't fix anything. Many will do it again next time.
