"I'm not saying you're wrong but, there's gotta be some reason billionaires are spending millions of dollars trying to defeat Mamdani."

Agreed.

"What if his ideas work?"

I guess it's fun to speculate if they would work but it's just fun.

But if the ideas aren't politically realistic then what's the point?

Here is what can happen......he gets elected, drafts these plans and tries to get the NY State legislature to move on them......and these bill are either dead or watered down to nothing in compromise.

And then the left calls this guy a liar and a fraud.

I never like arguing the virtue of ideas that have no chance.

-Nothing constructive to add to the conversation.

can't argue with that. It wasn't meant to be substantive.

or clever.....not sure why you are sarcastically identifying it as such.

Can this plan get through the NY State Legislature?

seems like a tough sell.

- I'm not in fear of losing my food stamps.

Yes, but you'll likely get some vitriol from folks where this hits home with them.

"His key plans would be funded by a proposed 11.5% increase in state corporate tax, which is estimated to bring in new annual revenue of $5 billion, as well $4 billion in income from a proposed 2% increase in income tax for NYC residents who make more than $1 million a year. Both plans would need the approval of the state legislature."

-NYC will pass legal tax increases that the people being taxed can afford.

really? You have a copy of this proposed plan?

-Looking to Dox your Betters?

If Bellringer can be called Jeff then we should call you by one of the previous names you went by here.

Anything wrong with that?

"Look at how many people, today, don't really care enough about their disapproval of Trump to get off their assess and work against him."

what do you mean by "work against him"?

This should be good.......

Where do you and your previous alias's live, Effeteantisemite?

All we're going to read now are excuses from folks with little or no hope who make excuses for their obvious inability to discuss.

"today's discourse is more about winning an argument than having a discussion"

especially to folks who apparently have little to live for and have little to no hope.

They don't want to live their lives in the gutter alone. Better to drag others down with you.

Bill is guilty of dragging homosexuality into almost any discussion (except voter fraud), and then it's suddenly all about HIS homosexuality.

-Must be dull in Kansas.

Where do you and your previous aliases live?

-It's Eberly who doesn't care.

I know you've sunken into a place where you make way too many things about me.

But that's another subject altogether.

But you fail to understand how significant it is to misunderstand or misinterpret the results of surveys like this.

They lead people to believe that if they simply say they disapprove of something, that means they also care about that issue. People prioritize things.....and not everything is that important to them, even when they "approve" or "disapprove" of something.

Want proof? Look at how many people, on election day, didn't really care enough about their disapproval of Trump to get off their assess and vote against him.

That's an example of "disapproval" doesn't equate to really caring about something.

No one cares. I don't care. Anyone who says they care is lying.

This is someone who has claimed to have me plonked.

LOL

-Are you suggesting that this is in error?

I don't know and I don't care if any of it's unfair. It appears deserved from my perspective.

I'm just saying that if you want to know how much people care, ask them how much they care.

Not simply approve vs disapprove. The vast majority of things I don't approve of are also things I care little about.

Is there a more dangerous place on the planet right now than being in those waters?

Who would steer a boat into that area right now?

when 100% of the press coverage is negative, you're going to be left with only Trumpers supporting it.

But nobody understands these polls.

People "don't approve". But the real question is.......do any of them really care? They don't ask that.

-You're imagining things again; I never said anything like tha

The reason why your nose gets burned is because it's so long.

"Drinky Pete"

That reminds me ... ... you enjoyed calling GWB a dry drunk

So ... ..which is it? You an actual drunk or a recovering one?

You also said he liked to suck off a White House reporter.

So much projection ... ... ...

Like I said ... ... I wouldn't put anything past Trump.

I'm serious when I say that.

I'm just not sure any of you are.

Oh well ... ..maybe you're serious ... ... ... .this time.

-you quoted me, then said:

Yes, after you stuck your face in the dishwasher again. And the steam burned your nose.

Any

But don't worry ... ... ..none of you look at dumber doing it now.
