Thank you for perfectly exemplifying the tendency to ignore reality while you are hyperventilating.

My primary issue is economic security for all. My polical priorities could rougly be described as Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

What you completely seem to have missed while you were hyperventilating, or you are purposely misrepresenting, is my claim that things are not likely as bad as you are still crying about.

Soda was one example of many: obesity is perhaps the biggest current challenge in chronic health care, in America. A while back, a liberal NYC administration went so far as to try to tax soda for just this reason.

But by all means, yell at me more online based on your own strawmen. It's entertaining.


Your ad-hominem "wetting the bed" and "hyperventilating" attacks are pointless, and have nothing to do with reality. And just more proof that it's pointless to argue any of this with anyone that thinks trump might not be so bad. Goodbye.


You must be the little piggy who built his arguments out of straw because I sure never said Trump "might not be so bad." I think Trump is a terrible person!

I do think that Trump's first administration was not as bad as the worst case picture painted by the left about all the terrible things that were going to happen. Democracy held. We even elected Joe Biden (*yawn*).

Trump is absolutely going to try some crazy shit. But if you are going to lose your shit because he nominated some people you don't like, you will be so worn out by all the media circus, when the time your actions could be meaningful, you will be exhausted and useless.

Save your energy. Stop acting like the person in the movie who loses their shit at the first sign of crazyness and is a net detriment to the team. This isn't the fight, dude.


I'm not sure how "liberal" the soda ban was. It was championed by Michael Bloomberg, who was at least nominally a Republican during his tenure. I know Bloomberg is trying to rub his nutsack all over the Democrat party now, but that's fairly recent and while he was mayor of NYC his administration was not considered "liberal" at the time.


You're right! I still agree with the policy, though.
