The government of Hamas can be eliminated, but the idea itself won’t be. The real problem is the religion itself. In my opinion, despite all the kumbaya we should respect all cultures/religion rhetoric, the true believers of Islam are the jihadists. They are simply following the text in the...

What’s even more important than a few percent in the black vote is the amount of hemorrhaging the Dems have done with the Hispanic vote. This could play a major role in AZ and NV as the trend appears to be continuing. It has already cost them FL. I think at the end of the day progressives would...

At this point in a head to head matchup between Trump and Biden I think it will come down to if Trump is a convicted felon. I think Biden would lose to either DeSantis or Haley in the General. Inflation has been horrible for the everyday person and even if it slows the damage won't be forgotten...

In order to beat Trump the nominee will have to take some Trump voters. Despite Haley gaining momentum and possibly eclipsing DeSantis for 2nd, I think DeSantis is the only one who has a fighting chance against Trump head to head. I just feel he's viewed more favorably/in-step with Trump voters...

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/foreign-earned-income-exclusion I'm wondering if I qualify for this or if there's anything I can do to qualify. I work as a W-2 employee for a trading firm, but I don't have a salary. It's all based on percentage of trading profits. I plan...

Even with our conservative SCOTUS, Alabama should lose. It should be 9-0. They don't have the legal authority to prevent abortions in other states.

He can run on low unemployment as it went from 6.3% to 3.6%. However, that 2.7% is unlikely to give him much credit as much as they are the economy reopening again. The problem with inflation is it hits a more than 2.7% of the population hard. Furthermore, despite employment increasing real...

Who would have thought that 8% inflation wouldn't be popular? Now borrowers are having to take the economic hit with the high interest rates. There's little housing on the market with everybody locked in at 3% staying put.

He's not picking DeSantis after he jumped in the race. DeSantis was the only person he ever saw as a threat which is why he's attacking him so much despite DeSantis not going hard at him like a Christie. Trump sees DeSantis as disloyal (which a lot of people do as Trump clearly made him...

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/debate-trump-gop-candidates-determine-2024-vp Guess Trump won't be at the debate which makes sense given his lead. If he selects somebody from the current field I'm going to guess the most likely VP candidates are Nikki Haley and Tim Scott. At the end of the day...

There's no doubt that Jill Stein took somewhat from Clinton (some might not have voted at all with a binary choice), but I wonder what percentage Gary Johnson took from both Trump and Clinton. That ticket had 2 ex-governors on it and drew a larger percentage. West would certainly take from Biden.

Before RFK even started running, I heard a lot of Trumpers call Trump an old school Democrat like JFK (as opposed to the modern Democratic Party which is supposedly a communist/satanic cult). They believe in all the JFK murder conspiracies just like the election lies.

6% see it as the top issue. And what percentage of them do you think are white? Do you actually think the people protesting are a representative sample of liberals as a whole?

It's such a small percentage of people. If you poll self-identified white liberals, racial justice is unlikely to make the top 5 issues for well over 90% of them. Climate change, abortion, democracy, healthcare, student loans, etc are going to be way more important. Why? Because people naturally...

Trump might actually be the only Republican who can win the presidency. I say that, because if he loses the nomination there’s a high probability he goes rogue on the party. He has a base that DeSantis or whoever else would be the nominee has to win over in the General and if Trump feels...

I think what made DeSantis really popular in Florida (keeping it open during Covid) will not resonate come 2024. America has a short attention span and is over Covid. I actually think he handled Covid relatively well (other than his refusal to admit he got the vaccines) and I'm no fan of his...

They aren't, but the system doesn't allow them to. Cornell West can't do any of the shit he says he would do either. You can say what you stand for and can only enact what Congress agrees with. We saw Biden try to push through student loan forgiveness without Congress. SCOTUS rejected it.

Might have to do with the first black POTUS rather than policy itself. I'm pretty sure that if a candidate is more focused on police-black people relations than crime itself, they will lose. People see that progressive policies with drugs are failing badly. We are seeing businesses being broken...

At the end of the day black people are 12% of the population and their particular issues aren't often on the priority list of the other 88%. Things like inflation, healthcare, climate change, gun control, and education are way higher in importance to the masses.

Although he too came up short, Bernie was much closer to achieving victory than the Greens ever were (and probably ever will be). The Democrats just don't seem to have any talented politicians right now that could give an incumbent president a run for his money.
