James Carville( the democrat who in 1992 gave us the memorable Clinton Campaign slogan:It's the ECONOMY, stupid!) in a recent interview with Vox:

We have candidates on the debate stage talking about open borders and decriminalizing illegal immigration. They’re talking about doing away with nuclear energy and fracking. You’ve got Bernie Sanders talking about letting criminals and terrorists vote from jail cells. It doesn’t matter what you think about any of that, or if there are good arguments—talking about that is not how you win a national election. It’s not how you become a majoritarian party. . . .

Trump is still very popular at cross burnings, book burnings, and anywhere awful lawless leadership is in fashion.

Kid is working on cutting a hole in his box. Find something sharp, Kid. I’m sure it will turn out beautifully.

Trump’s budget request shows all his early casino management skills remain intact despite the many other obvious ways he has decayed over the years.

A 'rude awakening': The message Meghan's royal saga sends to young black people in Britain

© Susannah IrelandFor many, Meghan's treatment has sent a damaging message to young British people of color, who perhaps saw her as a sign that racial prejudice might be finally ebbing away.

#####

More like 'Meghan's alleged treatment of others'.

You are such a denialist bigot.

Capitalism is “ unregulated”?
Science is “ denied”?
You can’t possibly be serious.

You can't possibly be reading.

He didn't say either of those.

He said those were "the wet dreams of unregulated capitalism and science denial that get you all sticky."
LOL
Reading comprehension escapes you.
Unlike you , though, I do know how to invoke the ignore feature.

Which won't help you with me.

And your denial of the truth remains your single most distinguishing feature.

Luee - I doubt "religious purists" are a big factor in the Democratic Party.

What the hell is a “ religious purist?”

Because that's what happens with mergers.

Not.

Quote
Wall Street analysts project that the merger will result in massive job cuts from the elimination of duplicative retail stores. When pressed on the issue at a Senate hearing, T-Mobile CEO John Legere conceded that "there'll be a rationalization of jobs in the first year" - a corporate-speak admission that the merged company plans to lay off thousands of workers.

Summary of Estimated Job Losses from Proposed Merger
Type of Work   Net Job Loss
Retail-Postpaid (T-Mobile, Sprint)   13,700
Retail-Prepaid (Boost, MetroPCS)   11,800
Headquarters   4,500
Total   30,000

T-Mobile disputes those number.
Quote
In total, New T-Mobile will have more than 11,000 additional employees on our payroll by 2024 compared to what the combined standalone companies would have!

Guess what number I don't see?

200,000 new jobs.

Got any support for your claim?

(anybody holding their breaths?)

There are enough homophobes out there that it could make an enthusiasm difference.


The writing is on the wall - if Pete loses anywhere near close  it is FOR that reason.

I actually think they should start talking gay rights/advancements TO Pete, find out how he would actually act toward LGBTQ if elected - or at least catch him making a puzzling statement or 2

“I talked to the president prior to this, and he said to quote him very clearly,” Spicer said. “They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now.”

Anything you post here is a lie...
