Is it still terrorism if you destroy a Tesla on January 6th at the U.S. Capitol?

From 2008 through Bidens term, when the GOP wanted to use the threat of a Govt shutdown against Democrats as leverage negotiating as a minority party. Now, the Democrats want to use the same methods as a way to have some power. The problem with this line of thinking is that the current administration does not want most of the Government open. They want to shut it down and give DOGE time to make sure none of the employees come back. This is the total opposite of the leverage the GOP had over Democrats who only wanted to keep the Government open. It was never going to work and they would have just been helping DOGE complete their goals. After all their goal is to dismantle as much of the Federal Govt as possible.

How about his party gets voted out in the mid terms and a new President in 2028? And Donald retires peacefully and alive somewhere in Russia?

The same New York Democrat machine behind all the establishment Democrats put AOC there too. Meet the new boss same as the old boss.

In my experience, the higher up you go in both parties, you tend to sort of arrive at the same places with the same people... and most importantly, the same donors and the same money machine. That's the great thing about the U.S. dollar really, corruption and selling Govt from Citizens United to today sort of drives the bipartisan nature of it because it all greases the wheels of the two party political machine.

I've listened to several episodes of his podcast... I'll probably continue listening but in the first episode Newsom basically kept saying he only got into college because his scores were low and he played baseball. Then he kept backing down to Charlie Kirk, Bannon, etc, while constantly saying he doesn't know what to do and kept asking them for ideas. In the first episode, there was a moment where he said Jesus Fucking Christ or something to Charlie Kirk, which called him out on it. It's like, the very voters he's trying to go after will hear that and stop at the first episode. He will gain no allies on the right as he abandons the party he is supposed to believe in, along with the core values he is supposed to defend. He thinks having a podcast with right wing guests where he gets sort of transactional on the issues. Like, do you think giving up the trans in sports debate is going to win you anything when their entire side would like to see gay marriage go away entirely? While you claim to still even support that? Do these people even think any of this through?

If Newsoms approach is the best the Democrats have to offer, then it might be game over for a very long time...
