The GOP sweeping Virginia or the Punditocracy&#8217;s Hive Mind repeating the talking points (aka lies and horrible guesses) about how the voters are rejecting Grampa&#8217; Brunch, the Progressive Caucus and how the GOP will take back Congress. Firstly, polls asking people of all stripes directly about the issues disagree which highlights the disconnect our shitty\u00a0<em>democracy<\/em> failing. If we had a system with at-large elements to counter the archaic geographic voting, it would be very different and the ass clowns of 538 would be slinging burgers. Secondly, Virginia is only one place, it&#8217;s not the whole country. This is a state undergoing a transition thanks to Maryland becoming unaffordable for educated people without obscene incomes and\/or political connections. There will be a push\/pull between the two parties for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The only big winner in general via Virginia and Minneapolis was White Fear with its racist foundation. Youngkin played the race card over a non-issue. Critical Race Theory like Defund the Police has had its connotation hijacked by the GOP into a wedge issue but in CRT&#8217;s case, there&#8217;s no issue. Any inkling of nuance in History isn&#8217;t taught at the K-12 grades giving the stealth MAGAt an easy win, meaning he doesn&#8217;t have to do shit as there&#8217;s no &#8220;problem.&#8221; However, we can always count on selfish NIMBYs to quietly vote for the GOP since their yard apes come first and the hell with anyone else&#8217;s children getting an adequate education. It&#8217;s a major reason why I hate many people with offspring. The world doesn&#8217;t revolve around your tax deductions nor do I give two shits about how\u00a0<em>you think<\/em> they&#8217;re smarter or superior to my nephews or niece. News flash, they&#8217;re not unless you show me one that cured cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As for Minneapolis. I&#8217;m not surprised the big to re-organized their dysfunctional police into a department of public safety failed. Many cities have a strong liberal faction, yet they&#8217;re never a large enough majority. Plenty of non-Whites aren&#8217;t always onboard for they distrust all Whites, sometimes for a good reason. Plus non-White doesn&#8217;t equal Liberal or Leftist values. But the Media forgot how Minnesota has large areas filled with GOP shitheads to push the vote to the Right. Michelle Bachman had a congressional seat from the state incorporating some of the Twin Cities&#8217; suburbs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It wasn&#8217;t a complete wash. Mayoral elections were for successful for those of us wanting to bring Amerika into the current century. Austin did defeat the crappy Prop A. I have little idea regarding Pflugerville&#8217;s local spots I have no say in. The Amendments mostly passed. Seriously, the Texas legislature can&#8217;t pass a dumb law saying a rodeo is allowed to have a raffle? Oh yeah, the fake morality prohibiting gambling in Texas alongside the restrictions on hard liquor sales on a Sunday. New Jersey&#8217;s governor getting re-electing is hanging by a thread as I write this. Allegedly the whole campaign hangs on his fumbling of the CV-19 outbreak. Nevermind how America&#8217;s idiotic\u00a0<em>federalism<\/em> is really to blame. It makes policy a worthless Swiss cheese defense against a outbreak. Trust me, if it were a zombie crisis, the Republican shitbird governors in the South would spend more time territorial pissing and claiming freedumb matters while millions are horribly devoured.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">So does this mean the Biden presidency is over? It was over well before January 6th given our worthless Congress&#8217; make-up. Losing Congress was also going to happen well before this courtesy of the incompetent ol&#8217; fart knockers at the helm: Pelosi, Clyburn, Hoyer and Schumer. They keep serving up big plates of NeoLiberal Nothing Burgers. David Sirota said it best. They lost (Virginia) because they backed another tired Clinton Era schmuck.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not sure what&#8217;s worse.
