The Democrats have been more “based” than any Republican has.

hey @Sue Lightning ... how come Washington DC isn't actually part of america?

Constitutional bullshit regarding the capitol not being included in or as its own states and being its own thing. But i’m not sure what you mean. It IS a part of America, it’s just not a state.

calm down, I was only asking!

I guess I've heard weird conspiracy stuff (not saying I believe it). The City of London is a weird territory also, that seems to be mostly for a tax haven

I’m struggling these days. On one hand, I don’t want the government to get bigger. On the other hand, I want to get a government job so I can get paid not to work.

It’s a tough one.

I’m calmo

The conspiracy shit is shit. DC abides by Supreme Court decisions. DC abides by decisions made by the Congress. Anyone born in DC to immigrant parents would be considered a US citizen. So it’s inherently a part of the US even if it’s not a state

why don't they just make it part of Washington State then?

There must be some reason, not saying it's anything too crazy but I've never got an answer

The U.S. Constitution (Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17) mandates that the seat of government be a “District (not exceeding ten miles square)” over which Congress would “exercise exclusive legislation.” This arrangement was designed to prevent any state from holding too much power by being home to the national government.

ahhhhh, that makes sense. City of London still a tax haven tho'. But nice one, 1st time anyone even had a hint of an idea about DC

Those founding fathers really thought of everything. Almost like they learned from experience.

Oh well, the shit is 300 years old so let’s just toss it in the trash and have our elites draft up a new one.

A nigger at work was really sperging out one day about wanting DC becoming a state. I didn't understand until I looked it up and it's because democrats want more democrat states (like Puerto Rico) so they can have a permanent one-party congress. They really are psychopaths.

Well I mean it’s also just morally correct (even though our government doesn’t give a shit about that). Take DC. Their citizens get taxed but they literally have 0 say in the government, i.e, they don’t even have a voting representative in Congress. How is that fair. It literally goes against the concept of Taxation = representation.

Puerto Rico is an entirely different circumstance as thats a territory, but DC is quite literally in the United States. So whats more evil. The Democrats who want to get another seat in Congress and retain power, but this ends up giving the people representation, or the Republicans who want to keep people from getting that representation because it would be a “win” for the other side. This isn’t hard to figure out

Edit: And Republicans wouldn’t even have this problem if they weren’t dipshits terrible at reaching out to these people. If everyone in Puerto Rico became Conservative we would see R’s lobbying for their statehood.

I pay so much fucking money in taxes. I like you but eat a fucking dick, faggot.

 

[Sue2]

I pay so much fucking money in taxes. I like you but eat a fucking dick, faggot.

And whats your point. I don’t care how good you think your representation is, you have it. You can vote on it. The people of DC literally cant despite paying the same taxes as you. They don’t even have a CHANCE to get any representation no matter how shitty, useless, or kiked it is.

Never took unemployment, worked all the way through Covid, and I just piss my check away for liberal faggots.

Ok yeah I agree but that wasn’t what I was saying. My statement was contained to: They pay taxes so they should be able to vote in congressmen who make decisions for them in Congress like you or I

I didn’t even read what you originally said. I’m just angry in general.

I hear you but the republicans are in a death spiral anyway. And rightfully so, they never actually push things to the right when they have power.

Quite the contrary in fact because they don’t seem to understand simple concepts like cutting taxes without cutting expenses is just another form of gibs. Or that going into a pointless war is just another massive government spending program and might as well be the same as starting a brand new federal agency.

The democrats will change any law or policy to drive their agenda. They do not give a fuck. They will do whatever it takes to win and then do whatever the fuck they want from there. And the republicans just take it and act like they’re going to win honorably (LOL) or even worse, they start to eat each other when they do cobble together a slim majority.

My point is that if this country is going to move back center, it’s going to come from the left. We’d all be better off if republicans started switching to democrat and voting the communists like Bernie sanders out.

Shits gay

 

[Sue2]

I think the problem now is that when Dems have control like they do now they’re able to keep a cap on the communists you mentioned. Biden is probably more center left than Obama or Clinton and doesn’t really appeal to the far left wing of the party (see: his oil drilling numbers and support for Israel). And because the Democratic party members are like Robots instead of speaking out against the President they step in line.

Conversely when the Republicans have control like they do in the Congress, the head of the party (wether it be Trump or Mike Johnson) can’t seem to get a cap on the far right wing of the party (see: retards like MTG lashing out at the speaker or Gatez ousting Mccarthy). And rather than telling them to vote with the majority or fuck off they basically try to compromise with them which doesn’t get anything done. I don’t see Biden sitting down with Ilhan Omar to get her views about Gaza. Why would Johnson sit down with MTG or Boebert to get their views on Russia.
