SecretBase 02/18/24 3:45:24 PM #2:	Republicans can still defend themselves by just saying Ukraine isn't US taxpayers' responsibility and a year of aid hasn't won the war anyway. They're not actually funding Russia themselves, so there's enough plausible deniability on that front. The main issue with the argument is the hypocrisy of funding Israel instead, but they can just say Israel is likelier to defeat Hamas than Ukraine is to defeat Russia, and thus their favored form of funding has a greater probability of effectiveness. At the end of the day it's a battle of who's going to get bored of funding the war first, and it's pretty unlikely Russia stops before a country overseas with a highly divided government filled with stingy sociopaths. This outcome was unfortunately fairly predictable. --- Stop it. Get some help. <cite>SecretBase posted [p:978911848] in Republican...

DepreceV2 02/18/24 5:50:06 PM #12:	All this bullshit the Republicans are doing are why they are losing so many elections. It feels like they are losing seats constantly and that kind of pattern will likely continue through the election. The quiet Republicans are finally starting to see how embarrassing their party is. Even if those quiet people are conservatives, if the party can't even get the basic shit done then why even bother voting for them? Hell, they had a very favorable border bill for them that could have went through but they decide to fight against the very bill they wanted just to have something to scare people with/run on. It's not even about liberals or progressives vs conservatives anymore. The quiet Republicans can't even make it that far in the argument which is crazy. What a trash tier party. All the Republicans now a days only fight for twitter engagement from the small percentage of the community that are terminally on twitter. There is a reason why none of that shit translates into any meaningful wins for the Republican party. I'm talking like I'm a Republican when I'm not. It's somehow annoying to me how bad that party is being ran even though the Democrats are winning left and right. This shit is why I truly believe Biden will win the election easily right now. The vast majority of Independents will never vote for the current Republican party which they NEED to win. The only way they win is if Democrats don't show up to vote. That probably won't happen though because Trump will be on the ballet. Even if Biden is favored to win, since Trump will probably be on the ballot, most people will not decide to not vote. This isn't 2016. People know how big of a shit show Trump is and many people will do what they can to make sure he isn't in that seat again. --- Atlanta Falcons choking a 28-3 lead in the 3rd qtr: https://youtu.be/gY8exXZgyqc Atlanta Falcons choking a 26-10 lead in the 4th qtr: https://youtu.be/BYJHgyXiwvs <cite>DepreceV2 posted [p:978913816] in Republican...
