Current Affairs General US politics (ie, not POTUS related)

No love lost for Graham but it worries me where this sort of behavior can go.

It’s concerning for sure. I’m a little curious as to why such a high profile senator was more or less on his own in the airport like that, especially after what happened to Mitt Romney in the airport and on a plane PRIOR to the riots.

Funny how they all want to come together, heal etc now that they have lost the Presidency and Senate. No way would they be saying this if Trump and McConnell were still in charge.

The first condition of coming together should be an agreement to convict Trump when the impeachment article hits the floor

Asking people to “come together” when not 48 hours ago McCarthy were voting to dis-enfranchise thousands is pretty galling.

Very “Yes I just slapped you in the face now please can you turn the other cheek”

One of my biggest takeaways from the past few days/weeks/months is seeing how truly appalling many Americans basic knowledge of civics is. That’s not any comment on people posting in here. Many of you guys aren’t American, yet somehow seem to know far more than the run of the mill citizen here.

It’s shocking for grown Americans not to understand simple things like the impeachment process, or the difference between “Capitol” and “capital”. We have to do a much better job of actually educating young people in this country ABOUT this country.

When you look at the breakdown in our education system, is it really shocking?

The Georgia election feels like years ago.

Well someone was certainly right.

Oh ffs Joe

He votes with the D party like 70% of the time. Why they allow him to claim to be a D is insane. He votes for Trump more than D initiatives. "but we need moderates like Manchin to make sure we have WV!"

yeah, and here we are...

It is truly impressive that with competition like Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell that Josh is rapidly becoming the senator I dislike the most
