Yeah, that's like... kindof an important point. I mean, how stupid do people have to be to not understand this? This isn't about what party you belong to - or whether your liberal, conservative, or whatever. It's basic common sense for people with over a 10 year old functional development.
Seriously?!?... who the hell is "We"? Because the people, Supreme Court, and congress didnt make any international agreements... Obama did.
I mostly stay out of this thread because it gives me a jaded view of folks on this board whose opinion on basketball related topics I respect.
I know some of you get upset with SD and the MAGA movement in general, but understand where our attitude comes from. We have been told how stupid/naive we are, how Trump could never get the R nominee, then never be president. Then, we were told he colluded with Russia, would bankrupt our country, offend world leaders, and lead us to nuclear war... This was a common, prevailing thought among many news outlets...
Now, interest rates have risen to a more fair rate and our housing/stock market is up. We have completely decimated ISIS and their occupied land. We have single handily managed the dynamics in the Pacific to allow for peace with the Korean Peninsula, japan, and China.
And... more to come.
So Ill leave the snarky comments to SD. I'll just sit back and let you'll plug CNN and Rachel Maddow segments so you can feel woke. Wait, the porn stars shady lawyer said what now... oh yeah, dont give damn
This!!! So much this!!!
Obama thought he could govern via executive order instead of including congress. Which is odd. Given how "polished" Obama was. and affable. Why not put deals together with congress R's in congress and use his "personality" to sell it to his base? Why not get more done when he had the super majority?? Too lazy? Were the D's too full of themselves and thought they would have the super majority forever?? Celebrated too much from the historic victory? Foolishly took on healthcare first??
See thats the problem with most D's, they think the "work" in congress is to get elected. Once elected they stop working for the american people to make the country better. "better" for D's is making social changes like that bathroom stalls nonsense. As the majority they haven't done meaningful legislation in decades and as the majority they simply "resist."
Bottom line Obama had his chances and DID NOT fulfill one single campaign pledge with the super majority. I mean...did Obama campaign on anything besides changing the grid (to green)??!! Remember that?!! "No more gasoline cars by 2016!!!!" Thanks obama for all the lies!!! Because I actually wanted that green grid. I voted for obama for that green grid.
here's the bottom line. The D's on this website have been viciously attacking conservatives since i began reading it every day about 1.5 years ago. And in SD20 they found their huckleberry.

They are all hat, no cattle. All bark, no bite. In congress that are All talk, do very little for the american people. in fact they are actively resisting positive change for the american people and have been on a 2 lies and smear campaign. D's like Schiff, Waters, Ted lieu, pelosi, Sanders, warren and Kamala harris and a few others have been on a vicous smear and lie campaign against the current duly elected president of the united states.
Now Booker thinks he is going to be the next president so he has backed off. as have warren and harris. sanders can see with his own eyes that the country is doing quite well. perhaps as well as it has during his entire life on congress. So he shuts up once he sees the stuff is working.
In addition to these higher profile D's, HRC, the deep state, and Obama himself at times have been actively working to undermine the trump administration. To say nothing of the former Obama SoS actively campaigning against trump admin foreign policy as trump is breaking with the old policy, Kerry was campaigning to revive it.
And THAT is the problem with the D's.
THEY DONT WANT TO DO THE REL WORK.
THEY DONT WANT TO PUT FORTH THE EFFORT TO MAKE DEALS.
SO THEY JUST RESIST THE FOLKS THAT ACTUALLY PUT FORTH THE EFFORT TO MAKE THE DEALS THAT CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT
HAVE PUT TOGETHER.
like i said, its a full rebuild.
