    I'd rather know about Biden's tax plan, how AOC or not AOC he's going to go, what we will do about Iran and middle east, our policy toward working with Russia's neighbors: the Swedes, Poles, Estonians, etc. if we will continue to press China or roll over, what plans (not pie in the sky stupidity) we have to address immediate concerns from climate change, unemployment and recovery for those screwed over by the virus, etc.

    I like things simple: my site, my rules, you are a douchebag, permaban. If people do not like Twitter's actions, then they do not have to use it. This is the essence of limited government if one believes in such. Can't have things both ways.

    There are standing issues with COVID and unemployment. And of course, tax laws. I want to also hear what Biden is going to do there.

    I won't hold Biden to anything virus. Too much is relegated to the states, including messaging - the states want it this way. Some states end up doing better, some worse. The vaccine rollout is a good example of this. I do wish that Biden would wear his mask properly. If anything, so my son won't scream at his mom for wearing her mask like Biden.

    So far so good in that regard. I like things de-centralized. I want to see Biden stick to that.

    Citizens should not have to fight and scale the walls and break down the doors of Congress. The elected representatives should do it for them. I would have respected Cruz x100 times had he brought water balloons and put up his dukes against Mitch, Mitt, Chuck, and Nancy. Nancy gets to use her purse (with some weights in it).

    Exceptionalism is bullshit.

    Decorum is simply a western way of hiding passions, pretending to be civilized, when we human beings are really just slightly advanced apes (I'm sure @Psalmanazar would agree). I'd rather see fists and water balloons, or maybe even a Senator taking off their pants and shitting on the floor.

    Yes, Ted Cruz, should have taken off his pants and shit on the floor.

    Schumer could have followed up and shit on Ted's shit.

    Latino AOC vs Cuban/Greek Malliotakis

    • NYC tough ass slug fest
    • Minority Racism Queens County vs Whiteishville Richmond County (Staten Island)
    • "Don't think about crossing the Verrazano bridge or I woop your ass"
    Here you go. I was taking to my NY last month about this, we put $20 down on Malliotakis to slug AOC.

    I know plenty of GOP folks who would bang AOC though. F up convo here? Yeah....but this is normal for those who aren't in a rich part of NYC. No one cares about sexism or racism.

    Trump is a mob boss with dirt on many. Lindsey Graham is on that list.

    Re: China.

    Trying to get tough on China & trade is the one Trumpian idea im on board with. I think his Section 301 duties is terribly misguided. US citizens pay for it all, and it raised corporate profits via the profit margin scam. There are different & better ways to get less of our commercial goods made in China.

    The big rumor on Graham is he is a homosexual. Not proven, but he is single.

    I work with people in SC at my job, which my employer has a major presence in. Over the years I work with different people up there. I did work with some very strong minded Southern Baptist people in the past. Very nice people to work with, and I even talk non-work related stuff with them. All of them put their beliefs as a way to live a good life.

    I was curious on their viewpoint on homosexuality since they were young just as me and I wanted to understand people who are different than me. They were extremely polite, but stated homosexuality is a sin and not moral. Then I found out that they all went to Bob Jones University in the Upstate.

    I also met someone one who was an non-believer. He made a point saying if you don't believe in god and live in SC, don't tell others that you are an non-believer if you know what's good for you. My interpretation on that is the Social Conservative culture based on Southern Baptist and Protestant Christianity is extremely strong on the culture sense in SC.

    Having a politician coming out as gay in SC IMO is a end to a political career and open to cold shoulders.

    This is the whole southern US @YMO. I have lived in Tennessee and North Carolina, have relatives in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Kentucky.

    My cousin is a recovering drug addict with super religious parents and family. They have done everything for her including at least two trips to rehab and even some tough love. Howecer, they would dis-own her in a second or send her to the reprogramming camps if she were homosexual.

    Although, they will look the other way if the choir director is a bit fruity and never married. Graham is is this camp. The people of SC would likely just not want to know.
