The left got caught off guard in 24, but not 26. The number of voters was absurd for a midterm. @dbmhoosier they tricked you😉 I told you the "it's the Jews" was psyop. The right needs to catch up and elections are going to be interesting moving forward as AI enters the equation.

Wtf are you talking about? The election was a punishment for betraying your voters and promises by starting a war you said you wouldn't and burying Epstein. Cost of living was maybe the top issue as the war took the focus off domestic issues and drove up the cost of everything.
@dbmhoosier "The Betrayal Election". What dumb paid influencer put that in your head? The sh#t libs and Van Jones owned your a#%es. It happens. Regroup and learn from it.
and learn from it.
No one ever learns from it. You realize it was just two and a half years ago Biden's people were publishing all those charts trying to convince Americans the economy was booming? Who knows what nonsense each party will be trying to spout in 18 months. At least the divided nature of government should make it interesting. Makes assigning blame a lot more complicated.

I think it's pretty much guaranteed Trump and the GOP will get the blame if the economy and/or stock market rolls over. Democrats are set up nicely. The one good thing the GOP has is the economy. It's actually pretty strong currently, unemployment is low, and inflation should roll over in the spring at the latest. However, I doubt they get too much credit for fixing an issue they caused when they started the Iran War. If the war escalates or the economy tanks, blue wave part II will happen in 28. Speaking of not learning. If Democrats get to 60 votes we will get to see if they repeat the Obamacare mistake and pass Medicaid for all.
He's learning.

LOL I know you viscerally hate the idea, but politically, Medicare for All will be a huge win for the Dems. The concept is already enormously popular, and in execution it will become even more popular. No matter the drawbacks. Consider the UK, which has huge issues with its health system, and yet, it has huge popular support, despite the fact that a majority of Britons actually report dissatisfaction with it. When push comes to shove, people really do like having universal access to healthcare, even if they do get frustrated with it while using it. The same will happen here. People will complain about wait times, about red tape, etc., but they will still vociferously oppose going back to not having it.
There is probably no single thing the Dems could do to cement political dominance for a generation better than passing MFA. It would be a New Deal level political accomplishment.
@goat it won’t be goat. Bc the reality is lost on Dems and their voters. I know this stuff. It won’t be Medicare for all. It’ll be Medicaid for all. And that’s a massive distinction
@bar-down Nah, it won't be. I mean, in reality, I disagree even with your distinction between the two, obviously, but that's irrelevant. Politically, it will be a huge win, regardless of what we call it or how well it works. People want it. They have for years now. And when it happens, no number of problems with it will make them stop wanting it. It's the Dem's version of kicking out illegal aliens. Doesn't matter what the consequences are, it's attractive on its face.
@goat just like people loved switching to Obamacare? I guess the answer is no. People don't learn. The part you're missing is everyone already has healthcare. And 92-93% of people already have insurance. Switching to a new government system, that will be inferior to the current healthcare for 10s of millions is going to piss off people, just like Obamacare did. Decades from now when people no longer had anything to compare it to is when support for it would be higher.
@goat I love ya but I don’t think you have a clue what you’re talking about. Docs you want don’t take Medicaid. Medicare for all ain’t it. It’s Medicaid for all. Benefits managers. Cost transparency etc are a better approach. Hood drs take Medicaid. There’s not a dr anyone in my family goes to takes Medicaid. Shit they don’t even take bro ze plans. One went to a concierge deal

I remember the London Olympics opening ceremony. They had a whole performance that paid tribute to the NHS.
The country of Shakespeare and Churchill, with a chance to show the world the best of the U.K. and they chose to worship a government bureaucracy on the world stage. It was extremely pathetic and dystopian.
No thanks. It’s also a societal net negative, regardless of political popularity.
Spoiled Americans will find out as much soon enough.

Yep and when millions of people all of sudden had to start waiting longer, seeing different doctors, or even more NPs is when Democrats would get demolished at the polls. Just because the government writes something down on a piece of paper doesn't mean all of sudden there becomes more of it. They just ration the supply they have, which means less care for people. Or more expensive care for the current care they already have.
@snarlcakes these good drs didn’t spend half a mil and a dozen years of life on med school to get paid by the gov. They’ll convert to concierge plans. Start their own hospitals and the bums on Medicaid for all will be standing in the ER line behind bullet victims waiting on a DO
@bar-down @snarlcakes I hope they actually do it and we get a chance to see who is right.
