@jolly And I think you overestimate him.
Yes, so did Hilary.
Guess Biden didn't
So many people on the left talk about the fly-over rubes who form the base of Trump while never, ever, commenting on the violent mobs of lower class poor hopeless people who give them the voting edge in election after election. Their crop. Own that destruction of humanity, you useless sociopaths and/or ignoramuses. At least the fly-over rubes are born to a world of opportunity. That's more than can be said of your crop. Own it.
Hold on there Horace. I don't identify as left (in fact I'm fairly dubious of 'identifying' with much of anything) and I don't think I have a crop atleast not one I know of. Other than this den of inequity in most political discussions I'm typically arguing against the current illiberal-lefty political zeitgeist. To be honest I don't quite understand what you're saying but I think we would agree that rubbishing the large numbers of people who voted for popularist movements like Trump/Brexit is a terrible mistake. That the causes that underlie these movements run deep and are meaningful, and that weaponised cultural superiority is a very dangerous force.

Sure. Of course I respect you Moonbat. Sorry to have used your words on a riff that didn't really apply to you.

A better deal might be to allow some of the more civilised bits to be annexed by Canada.

If you want California, I think they're available.

Quote = "Notice it's the ones who don't even live in America ganging up?"
Possibly but kindly understand, that many like me are just unenfranchised stakeholders in what goes on in US politics. Like it or not the world is still very much under the sway of pax americana. As a former Prime Minister of Canada described living next door to the US:
Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.
So for us let's just say the past four years have been anything but even tempered.
I went to Canada once. I wouldn't go back there if you gave me the jet plane I got there in.

Yes I recall the yarn you once wrote about your experience at the hands Customs officials when you tried to enter this sovereign nation. I am sure though they had their own good reasons to heap bureaucratic and officious persecution on you and your party. Not unlike the welcome many of us, unenfranchised stakeholders, receive when we enter your brightly spangled republic.
Not to worry though, if I had my way I would make certain that certain active posters in this forum would require entry visas to visit this country. In that way we can ensure that good bilateral relations are maintained at all levels.
Elbows up!

Yeah, well, once I figure that one out, I'll try to figure out what a Trotskyite is. Trotskiyite. Trotsky-ite. Trotskite. Whatever, if ya can't even spell it, might as well forget it.

@rainman Actually it's a Trotskyist.
Once you have that down we can work on a what a Groucho Marxist might be.

Presumably he's a Marxist who refuses to join his own party.

I had a Canadian friend who worked at a border crossing near Gananoque. He said the number of hand-guns and assorted firearms he confiscated from disappointed Yanks attempting to enter the country was staggering. Presumably, they felt that the mean streets of rural Ontario were not safe to traverse unless you were armed to the teeth.
I was only joking

Actually, the people having the guns taken off them were American citizens. The Canadian citizens had decided in their free and fair elections, something you claim not to have in the US, that they felt safer if all the yanks were disarmed.

In defense of my thread title, he signed on to the senators trying. There was an effort to get him to try to overturn our democratic results unilaterally which he is still not on board with.
