This would only work if Republicans cared at all about logic, which they absolutely fucking don’t
It would be nice to make them say it, though. Every little bit counts!
Agreed. But Splitting that evangelical vote would be priceless
they only care about hurting the outgroup. they don’t give a shit about the bible. if they did, their real God selling his own version of the bible wrapped in a flag for profit would have been all kinds of sacrilegious and unforgivable. but they don’t worship the biblical God, they worship the orange idol.
don’t for a second think that they are genuine in their faith. it’s just a team, and helps them hate the other teams so they can feel better and holier than others without actually even attempting to be good people themselves.
It wouldn’t do that though, the dems are the “not us” group so the evangelicals have already decided that everything they do is evil.
Morality by association rather than by actions is a hell of a drug.
Right, which would unavoidably get into the headlines for weeks with this plan.
I really want Dems to weaponize legislation like this. But I also don’t want them to waste the time and effort it takes to do it.
You gotta play a little dirty though. At least look at the mud every once in a while.
The problem with this is that Republicans will just give the bill/law a different nickname to avoid using the one that makes them sound bad every time they oppose it: see Obamacare vs. Affordable Care Act.
It’s really just about what markets well. Come up with a catchy name and that name will stick.
The Democrats didn’t go far enough accepting the Obamacare name. Obama was all ‘sounds good to me, yes, I care’ or something along those lines when he was asked once, but the Democrats should have officially renamed the bill to Obamacare. Because there’s people who support the ACA but are against Obamacare and don’t realize they’re the same thing. If they’d changed the name there would only be Obamacare and a few of those people, a very slim amount, might realize that the bill thats helping them is Obamacare.
Yeah that’s always gonna happen unfortunately. In a way I don’t even care about that, at least it got past. They can rable rable all they want as long as we’re all better off in the long run.
I agree, was just pointing out that the GOP love playing these branding games - so it’s hard to pin them down through weaponised legislation unfortunately… they lack the morals and scruples required for them to feel shame or embarrassment.
Hell, one of their biggest talking points is to call it the Democrat Party (instead of the correct Democratic Party), and watch them put extra emphasis on the last 3 letters too.
Great idea, actually.
Dana, Dana, how could anyone be this right?
amazing.
trump did have the balls to use executive order in response to a mass shooting…
Pretty sure he’s always been against guns tho, most rich people are. They’ve fucked over too many people to want someone to be able to kill them that easily.
Sure, it eventually got overturned, but it worked for almost a decade before the SC struck it down
Biden tried to do some, but the ones that actually mandated action never went into effect, and the rest was the usual “looking into” bullshit. You can buy a pistol brace right now, and “ghost guns” are still unserialized.
So (for completely selfish reasons) trump actually has a pretty good track record on gun control for the last 20 some years of American presidents.
Which almost everyone willing to vote for him would fucking hate if they weren’t too dumb to notice.
I’m torn. This is a bad look, but when my Mom ran for council we had the list too because we wanted to collect the signs afterwards. They’re most of the cost of a local election campaign.
But then they become clowns, just like Trump and his team. This is fucking stupid. You’re all rubes.
It’s a joke - calm down.
I love how this woman thinks!
