As aTexan, I WANT to argue this point; BUT, as a Texan... I know what it's like here. Just be glad we're required to stop at state borders. OH, annnd IF some nut suggests US lets Texas succeed... let us. It'll be better for everyone. Imagine the Republican party losing like 14 million votes.
That's the idea: you live there, with their rules, and be happy. And we'll live in Texas with their rules
.
And if you could tell the people from California to stop moving to Texas to escape the California they created in the interim that'd be even better
I have no idea what's going on but I enjoyed visiting California but I'd rather live in Texas. I didn't realize being from a specific state was an issue.
And if you wonder what I mean by that, this is what happens when two sides have no willingness to reach an agreement, and prefer to wait until they are majority power in whatever system they're a part of to force their position into law. I'm not picking on any particular side and saying that they started it, but way back in like 2008 when the Democratic Party of the United States had a majority they elected to officially change the way Justices were elected to the Supreme Court, where once you had to have consensus amongst all the elected officials, but changed it to majority rules once they were in power since they didn't want to compromise with the minority party at the time. fast forward to Trump getting to pick 3 or so Judges on the Court (ergo it biting them in the ass real hard) and they they started talking about how once they were in the majority, they were going to add seats to the court so they could fill the court with more Democrats than there were Republicans.
The Democrats usually lead in this regard. They are always willing to try something new when in comes to politics and assuring their political agendas and policies come to pass, where as the Republicans just play the game as it's dictated. It's just that what goes around comes around, and whatever perceivable gain/ advantage disappears into the other camp the next election cycle, once the people realize that you're a politician who lies, and you might as well give a go to the guy who says he won't do what they other guy has been doing for 2-6ish years give or take.
My usual challenge is to show me one person charged with insurrection. I'll also point out that the mostly peaceful protest started long before the actual rally in another part of the district concluded, and then I point out actual armed uprisings that occurred prior to and after the Capital Riot. If I'm feeling particularly fiery I'll even mention capital riots that occurred against Trump and post-Jan 6th and ask why they aren't considered as bad or worse.
Leave it to nic to flee in the face of legal and factual arguments. If one doesn't want to engage in a subject, a great first step is to not mention the subject.
