The only calculation is always how do I get re-elected. That’s for all of them, 2 year election cycle. Starts right when you win.

Holy hell. A buddy of mine was down there a couple hours ago and after the curfew, the cops were not fucking around.

Good. Democracy needs defending not selfies.
We've learnt the hard way, with attacks ranging from knife to mortar; this photo is a taste of what you will encounter at the Houses of Parliament and Downing Street

Watching the vote tallies now, because fuck those treasonous thugs.
Please love yourself.

Not to defend their actions, but consider their motives. Unlike the Anti -fa (as Biden says, are not an organization) or the Leftists who have tried to trash the city recently, most if these people do not want to see the country destroyed. Most of them are terrified that representative democracy is being compromised in this country.
Fuck those treasonous thugs.
I wonder...As a fourteen-year Air Force veteran died while spitting her blood on the Capitol floor, if the thought ran through her mind she was a treasonous thug? Maybe not...

It is ridiculous to say that the Democrats want to destroy the country. Just as it is to say the same thing about the Rrepublics.
The further you get from the center, people are 100% SURE that their party is THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN GET THINGS DONE. And the other side is out to destroy the country.
I am guessing that when President Franklin Roosevelt was president, they were people who were talking about US being destroyed. Same probably with President Kennedy. Same probably with President Reagan. Same probably with (insert recent President name here). Probably even when the alcohol ban was repealed, I bet there were people that thought that was the destruction of the country.

Your lack of history knowledge is appalling. You really need to read up on FDR.

@jolly my knowledge of history may not be the greatest, but I don’t think it is appalling either. Lol

President Roosevelt's perception of government's role in society went against the popular political culture of the day. Roosevelt's and the New Dealers' activism was challenged from many directions—conservative and liberal politicians, business leaders, trade groups such as realtors, Congress, and even the U.S. Supreme Court. They each had their reasons—unique to their own interests—for concern over the radical new approach of the president.Conservatives believed that the First New Deal went beyond limits on power given by the Constitution to government, particularly to the president. Liberals believed much more radical change was called for, including government ownership of banks and industry, while business leaders believed government had no role in the private marketplace. Trade groups resisted government regulation of their activities. Some members of Congress did not want to delegate such sweeping authority to the president for setting industry regulations and other actions. Eventually the Supreme Court would deliver setbacks by ruling several key First New Deal programs unconstitutional.

@jolly I understand that.
I always like to learn new things.
In your way of thinking, did the US mostly was quite happy with the programs put in place during the first part of FDR”s first President term?

Read about the veteran's riots and why MacArthur ordered Eisenhower to bayonet protesters in the streets, if needed. Look at the ascension of Huey P. Long. Read about why men walked the streets of New Orleans carrying submachine guns at that time.
Understand some of FDR's thoughts on Asians... "“Japanese immigrants are not capable of assimilation into the American population. Anyone who has traveled in the Far East knows that the mingling of Asiatic blood with European or American blood produces, in nine cases out of ten, the most unfortunate results.”
That was long before WW2. Maybe some of the Asians weren't totally happy with him, either.
Also understand that FDR spoke positively about Mussolini and admired the man.
Understand that many people thought FDR's policies lengthened the Great Depression, not shortened it.
I could go on, but ask yourself why the 22nd Amendment was enacted?
Yes, FDR won an unprecedented four terms in office. But to think he was universally loved, is simply not so.

We are speaking the same thing. My pint was the a lot of people did not agree with FDR and thought his policies and programs were not for the good of the country. I am not saying he was universally loved - just the opposite.
