Washpo didn't think so, Laura. Neither did Nate Silver and a lot of others.

I posted their article. I was supporting Bernie before you were born, dearie.

I was referring to Laura's #5.

Because he couldn't win the Dem Primary, much less a national election, even when he had the advantage of Caucuses.

"A substantial majority of Americans support requiring higher-income earners to contribute more to Social Security to address the program's upcoming funding shortfall.

Public Support and Context

66% support: Polling highlights strong public backing for making the wealthy pay more into the system.

Insolvency timeline: The Social Security trust fund faces depletion projected around the early 2030s.

Current cap: In 2026, the maximum earnings subject to the 6.2% payroll tax is $184,500.

' Proposed Solutions

Lifting the cap: Lawmakers propose raising or eliminating the wage tax cap so high earners pay on income above $184,500.

Solvency boost: Proponents argue this revenue change extends the program's solvency for decades.

Benefit protection: Advocates favor tax adjustments over across-the-board benefit cuts for average retirees."

"It's only 6% of us that experience any benefit from the cap and an even smaller percentage " three or four " who benefit from scrapping the cap on income above $250,000," O'Malley reportedly told host Blake Burman.

"Most Americans, Blake, think it is unfair that wealthy people don't pay the same tax rate as a custodian in a school or a teacher."

- Public high schools are churning out barely literate, almost innumerate graduates.

Who are almost Guaranteed to become Republican voters.

The Republican Dumbing Down of America Program is werking really well!

The Dumbing Down of America has been a 50 year project of the Republican Party that started with, "The tax cuts for the wealthy will Trickle Down!"...

... and continued with Planned Recessions, underfunded edumacation, expensive bad healthcare, Money as Speech, Corporate Personhood, and legalized political bribery and Forever Wars.

So, they've werked long and hard for the resulting Trump voters.

Bellboy is competing with 1Nut for the coveted rwing Miss Obtusity Prize.

Up mountain, more like.

But he's down to the bare Base of his Cult, and he's not helping by being an anchor around his political minions' ankles.

He's like this cartoon I saw in a magazine a long time ago; there was a pic of a beautiful, sexy woman, but the caption was:

"Yeah, but somewhere some guy is tired of her shyt."

People are tired of his shyt.

Reading comprehension of a blind pig.

And he's pretty sure that DJT won the 2016, 2020, and the will win the 2028 election.

- Most troops usually are, historically.

Nice whataboutism... what about in this particular case, you know, the thread topic?

I mean, it's not like DJT needs any more apologists for his Tourettes Tactics than already he has.

- renewing strikes on Iran after the midterm elections.

Ah so... the elections are a major consideration in his warmongering?

I'm shocked, I tells ya!

Do those troops know they are pawns in his politicking?

You don't suppose by any chance that Dumping Fox would be a big plus for the competing Trump Media, eh?

Maybe Chairman Emeritus Rupert shoulda just changed the name to Trump's Foxy Lady News a long time ago....

To be fair, the Dumbing Down of America has been a 50 year project of the Republican Party that started with, "The tax cuts for the wealthy will Trickle Down!"...

... and continued with Planned Recessions, underfunded edumacation, expensive bad healthcare, Money as Speech, Corporate Personhood, and legalized political bribery and Forever Wars.

DJT will be taking this case to the SC... as soon as he arranges a new RV for Clarence.

How cool is it that they are attacking the .000001 percent problem of voter fraud that we have, which has never changed the results of any real election?

The Myth of Voter Fraud

Todd Rundgren's biggest hit is "Hello It's Me", which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1973.

He was better known for producing others albums, though. And he designed the first color graphics tablet in 1980, so there's that.

I remember him for his 1Nut impression:

I tried a few questions today and basically got a 'No Comment'.

"The Republican toothless stock trading bill is as ineffective as a screen door on a submarine," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said on the floor Wednesday.

"This bill has no reform, no accountability, no substance.

Most Democrats also refused to support the bill because of voter ID requirements that were added into the bill, including some that are part of the GOP's stalled SAVE America Act.

Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) called those "a poison pill" in his own floor remarks Wednesday."

OP prefers ineffective Republican Bills to the much more effective ones backed by Dems and stalled by Republicans.

But... this kind of thing happens all the time to professional trolls.

We are just SO fortunate to have a runaway from Crony Commu-Capitalist China teaching us all about American History, Politics, Patriotism, and Culture!

- Thats because people weren't out there "protesting".

Really? So you agree that people should be shot in the face for protesting?

Figures.

I take it that wasn't you standing in front of that tank in Tiananmen Square.

More like you were running away from your country rather than trying to humanize it.

I see that our rwingers have no interest in the truth about their Cult Leader's Admin.

Shocking, eh?

Pictures of DJT, diaper only.

Obama's ICE managed not to shoot people in the face or other deadly parts.

And that number is over about 7 years.
