General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

But she also called Greg Abbott "hot wheels" once and that was a pretty bad look regardless lol

 

[Barry Poppins]

Yeah that's fair

 

[Chris]

Greg Abbott is the Texas governor who is In a wheelchair for refence

 

[Jimmy King]

I have an online friend I play Fortnite with that lives in Texas and he calls Abbott wheels whenever he talks about him

 

[Barry Poppins]

You know what will happen when Trump does something truly horrible!? Like start a war?

 

[Barry Poppins]

Chuck Schumer will write a strongly worded letter

 

[Barry Poppins]

And nothing else

 

[Barry Poppins]

Honestly for as bad as Republicans are, the Establishment Dems are somehow worse in that they're completely spineless.

 

[Barry Poppins]

They don't actually have any convictions on what they believe other than "Democracy and Neoliberalism good!"

 

[Chris]

She tried to say calling him hot wheels wasn't a reference to him being in a wheelchair too lmao like come on girl if you want to be the Democrat trump who doesn't give a fuck you gotta own your insults too

 

[Chris]

The average Democrat in Congress doesn't seem to have any opinions outside of "who is the most electable" which is getting more and more abstract as they lose their identity

 

[Barry Poppins]

Exactly. The Establishment is still in control of the party but they have the most abstract and vague idea of who they want to lead.

 

[Chris]

Just saying "I'm not Donald Trump" will not work after 2028, it didn't even work for Biden. And I mean saying "I'm not Biden" isn't working for trump either lol that gets you elected but after that you have to do something or it flips right back in 4 years bc people will keep voting for the "not"

 

[Barry Poppins]

It's crazy that at this point the Reform Party of radical centrists, the Progressive wing of the party, and the Democratic Socialists all have more common ground with each other than the actual leaders of the "Democrat" party

 

[Barry Poppins]

Like if the centrists, Progressives, and Socialists all camd together as a voting block they'd actually have a lot of power to throw around
