Hardkill

Yeah, that what I think too. How do you know that she isn't spirituality? And what about the right with their extreme religious dogma?

After Biden and the Democrats in Congress passed the IRA last year, Medicare was granted the power to negotiate prescription drug prices for the first time ever in US history. This measure is undoubtedly considered to be a popular policy amongst the American people. However, Big Pharma and the US Chamber of Commerce are doing everything they can to try to convince the courts that allowing Medicare to "control prices" of drugs is unconstitutional. Yet, legal experts say that the arguments the challengers are making are thin. Medicare won't actually just set the prices of drugs unilaterally. It will instead engage in fair negotiation of the prices. Plus, "drugmakers don’t have to participate in the negotiations so the federal government is not forcing them to turn over their patented medications, said S. Sean Tu, a law professor at West Virginia University. Medicare is a market created by the federal government, and it doesn’t have to give drugmakers access, he continued." Moreover, Medicare will only be able to negotiate up to about 100 drugs over a period of several years starting around 2026. https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/15/politics/medicare-drug-price-negotiations-lawsuits/index.html Will the business-friendly federal level courts kill this provision even though it was passed into law by both POTUS and Congress through a totally legitimate legislative process and is definitely constitutional?

A lot of people are moving away from California and New York not primarily because of the crime and homelessness. It's because those states are getting too expensive to live in, especially with regard to renting or owning a home. Also, neither of those articles you mentioned said that the reasons for exodus was because of the "crime problem" in those states. Crime and shootings are definitely worse in most red states including Texas, West Virginia, Alabama, Idaho, and Florida: https://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-pundit-lisa-marie-boothe-falsely-claims-miami-is-safer-than-new-york-city https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/09/opinion/crime-and-political-punishment.html https://www.bestplaces.net/crime/?city1=50667000&city2=54835000 https://wallethub.com/edu/richest-and-poorest-states/7392 So tell me, what "common sense policies" have the officials in charge of the red states been using that have made their states much safer to live in? Furthermore, why is the uninsured and underinsured rates for healthcare generally much lower in red states than blue states? Also, why is the level of infrastructure and social safety nets usually much lower in red states than in blue states? Moreover, why is the level of education per capita much lower in virtually every red state than in almost every blue state?

Which is why I gave you an absurd answer to show you that I understood how out of control it would be if women were treated as second class citizens. Though, I do believe that woman should partake in some traditional feminine roles in any relationship with a man.

Crime and homelessness has been worse under Republicans because the GOP never actually does anything to solve any problems. They just let it all go without much government intervention. They don't even put their money where their mouths are. The only exceptions to this is that Republicans enjoy harming immigrants, causing endless wars, and torturing foreigners abroad like what happened in Guantanamo Bay.

No, I hear what you're saying, but then how do you think women should embrace their femininity when they are with a man?

Well if a woman is not going to commit to giving me her full support for my goals in life then I can't be in a relationship with her.

So, definitely punish her until she becomes submissive and cooperative, right?

A lot of what you say is true, but women are more susceptible to group think than men are because they tend to be more social than men. Therefore, women generally are less inclined than men to come up with bold new visionary ideas or say original controversial opinions or do something truly ballsy.

What if a woman you're with doesn't want to cook for you, clean for you, or do any of the traditional female work for you? What if she doesn't even want to help you with your life purpose?

Yet many women these days want to be "strong and independent women who don't need no man." They like bossing men around, wanting to have successful careers, start/own a business, and rise to leadership positions in all other kinds of fields of work. They certainly don't want men controlling them anymore. How do you deal with those kinds of women?

Vivek Ramaswamy or Mike Pence. lol How about Chris Christie? I actually respect him for totally calling out Trump hard.

You still think he's just moderately conservative?

If Trump gets convicted before the 2024 election then would the RNC or the Republican establishment decide to bar him from being the Republican nominee for president? Or will the majority Republican primary voters finally come to the conclusion that they have to move on from Trump to DeSantis?

But they did do the right thing before by denying to hear Trump's election challenging cases. They also struck down the 3rd and last challenge to Obamacare in 2021 by a 7 to 2 ruling, even when the court had 6 conservatives and 3 liberals on the court. They further struck down 1 or 2 months ago, the frightening Moore vs. Harper case, which argued that state legislatures have unlimited power in determining any kind of elections. Maybe Chief Justice Roberts, who is the most moderate and reasonable of the conservative justices on the court could try to convince 1 or 2 conservatives on the court to rule in favor of disbarring Trump according to the constitution. Perhaps this is still just wishful thinking.

Oh yeah, that is all true. However, I think he's still hurting his state's economy significantly with his far-right immigration policies and conflict with Disney.

and you don't believe that even some of the conservatives on the Supreme Court including Roberts, Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Gorsuch wouldn't agree with the argument that Trump should be barred from office as he did "engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the United States, or had "given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof"? If that won't work then why have even two of the legal experts from the far-right Federalist Society been the ones who came up with this idea? Why do they say that even according to a conservative and originalist interpretation of that part of the constitution that Trump has undoubtedly disqualified himself from being able to run again?

Is that because the conservative federal courts, including SCOTUS, will probably not rule in favor of it even if Trump got convicted?

There have actually been a few top legal experts who have been saying that according to the 14 amendment, section 3 Trump should already be constitutionally be barred from running for office again:

That along with his nonsensical fight with Disney has been undermining the economy of his state. So much for Republicans being perceived as being better than Democrats at handling the economy, even though it's actually the opposite that has been true.

Ha! I thought so! Btw, have you seen or heard about what's been going on his state with the latin immigrants protesting in his state over his extreme immigration policies?

So, would you say that even Ron DeSantis is now taking it too far with his whole "Florida is where woke goes to die"?

The Republican Party has become more unpopular than the Democratic party on the national level. Regarding presidential elections, they've only won the popular vote once since 1988 and actually haven't ever won a majority of moderate voters since 1984. The GOP senators have overrepresented their constituents way too much. The Democratic senators represent about 40-something million more people than Republican senators do even when the US Senate has a 50-50 split. Republicans have also gotten away with having a 20-something seat advantage for US House elections, and state legislative elections due to the gerrymandering since 2010. Conservative judges on the federal level have also become really unpopular amongst the general population. Trump and the MAGA Republicans have been costing Republicans an extraordinary number of elections at both the national and state level with their right-wing extremism. Yet, Republicans actually won the popular vote for both the US Senate and US House elections in the 2022 midterms. They also won the popular vote in both the US Senate and US House elections in the 2016 general election. Why is that?

That still doesn't make sense. So, the Republican politicians, right-wing interest groups and donors, conservative activists, CPAC, and the right-wing media personalities would actually rather die with their base so to speak than actually be more pragmatic by not diversifying their coalition and trying to seek much greater bipartisanship with the Democrats?

But aren't the GOP elites more worried about losing their political power?
