NC would still have a Republican governor to balance out the Democratic General Assembly if Trump didn't insist on picking based Black man as a lol cow candidate
Replying to @StatisticUrban
That's true, and Dems have run better candidates and campaigns for many years. But much of the recent difference is explained by Trump personally. That is, if he hadn't turned his head when he did, Dems plausibly have literally 10-11 fewer Senate seats going into next term.

Shit loosing whites in the deep South and Appalachia is more a "everything is on fire" moment

2024 was an R+2 year and 2026 was something like a D+13 year, so 16 points means they barely shifted *relative to the country.* That actually is promising for Rs.

As allegedly uniform and conformist as Japan is, it always seems like an angery determined minority can get thire way. Gay marriage 75 percent support, cant happen because a small minority in LDP says no. Heck a clique basically dragged the whole country into world War two.

It's weird that they're more regressive than they were a millennium ago on this question.

Ya and the EC is irrelevant to that. Yall always confuse the senate with the so called EC for some reason(and it really doesn't benefit small states)

Holy shit. I pay more for Premium Gasoline in San Antonio Texas then this(a little more then average even recently but to be fair I bought ethonal free gas but that makes the comparison more apt because all Gasoline is ethonal free in Japan)
In Japan you can buy 98 RON fuel for A$1.65 per litre, and this wasn't even the cheapest I saw which was ¥169 or $1.54.
Almost $1/L cheaper than in Australia!

Guy who thinks Ai killing everyone is deranged yet still thinks climate change will and soon
Honestly? Probably good for Dems to lose statewide in Florida last night.
Looking at how Miami is about to face apocalyptic climate catastrophe and the inevitable implosion of the Florida state budget, the Floridian economy might just collapse in on itself in half a decade

Thats gonna be the biggest irony of all time that decreasing federal oversight of elections in the deep south allows the Democrats to steal an election from the Republicans. Lmao

It wasn't a dummy mander in Texas, it was a just a terrible night so thats why they lost despite it but would have lost more without it. That be said, it pissed so many people off it wasn't worth it and probably cost them a lot of votes
Replying to @lxeagle17
It's not a dummymander if it cracks under D+13 wave conditions! The marginal seats barely mean anything at that point anyway. Trading off for good performance in closer elections makes perfect sense.

If we are serious we would have quotas and outright bans. Tarrifs are just lame and gay

Free trade agreements with Europe, Anglosphere, friendly east Asia + coordinated tariffs against China is a winning move IMO.
