Don't forget Ross Perot could have been president and Tubs is 1 of only a hundred senators. He and Herschel could write Defense policy.
Well, I don't know that Perot ever had a legit chance, but thinking of him does remind me of another sad truth. Reincarnate George Wallace from his 1968 campaign and you've got a real live 2022 mainstream Repug who'll probably win his race.
Not so much that he had a chance to win, but he was largely
responsible for the conservative loss to Clinton, just as Nader was to the liberal loss to bush in 2000.
3rd parties can't work without a runoff.
I would love to see 10 or 20 parties and the several election campaigns full of compromise, alliances and deals a runoff would generate in a first one over 50% wins, rather than a 3rd party spoiler.
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”

Yeah, me too. That'll come along right after the end of homelessness and hunger and Repugs vote to ban the NRA.

I've always thought that I would prefer a parliamentary system. Give me someone that actually represents my views and that might occasionally have some sway in a coalition over constantly voting against the person that represents me the least and then being disappointed even when my choice wins. I'd probably vote for Greens and Socialists most of the time, but maybe occasionally a Libertarian or true Labor Party rep, possibly even the rare commie just to shake things up. Nah, probably not, I've never liked the irl commies I've met.
Maybe in the distant future a unified and resurgent Scandinavia will invade and occupy us . . . To the fury of the Northpeople deliver us, O Lord.
This is performance art at the CPAC. The man is portraying insurrectionists who have been jailed and “persecuted”. Marge is there for the publicity, but in the cults eyes, it’s all in the name of Jesus.
Well then….JFC.
Seriously, this is what our country wants
@HillaryClinton got it right! These are truly deplorables.
So.....they're praying over a guy pretending to be in jail....
God hell. If those are her daughters, we're in for a long term shitrain. And where are their fucking guns? I think I can see barbed wire out the window, but there should be guns.
