FK's take only makes sense for someone with no friends, keep a good thought for the poor guy.
We need less McConnels in Congress tbh.
I can't speak on Barbie haha. Not that deep into the political game.
I think Woke is stamped all over our society. Where we work, what we watch, what we consume.
Religion? I'm just a Sunday worshiper but sadly it's on the decline and almost non-existent in places like California. Isn't affecting our pocket books like Climate.
Very American perspective. I had lunch today with 2 bros I've known for 29 years. Neither is White by the way.
Partner/children first. Family and then friends. I can be friends with people and still ultimately have different goals at the ballot box. I think that's very American and rather fresh. Agree to disagree on certain topics, as long as both individuals are trustworthy/honest, polite/respectful and IMO somewhat humble.
I actually find it fascinating that conservatives think we're in some sort of culture war. We're not. Look at the numbers and society at large (including most independents and even a minority of conservatives) already accepted and moved on from same-sex marriage, abortion, climate...
We're not going back. These backwards laws in some States trying to force their dogma on everyone all they do is make them look archaic and stupid. It's kinda amusing to see from the outside, if not for the fact that they're hurting real people, tbh.
A) I think these are central issues or atleast topics for Americans Under 50. Mostly because social media/TV outlets
B) I'm confused what sentence 2 is in regards to.\
I assume Religion? Sure as a fellow Catholic I accept. But not so simple as the West is importing more Catholics/Muslims. And eventually Indians.
This is the X-Factor. The East importation. These are classically people willing to adapt but also take over communities and then flip.

Anyone thinking those two provide an accurate representation of overall American interests is just laughable.
What else could they do, El? They'd committed first degree premeditated murder so "they could live as they wish" when they killed their child/ren. There is nary turnin' back now. Nary.
any word on "mitch the glitch?"
Everyone has already said they want Feinstein to retire. You can't muster the same conviction about McConnell.
All Darrin cares about is his side winning, which is fine. It's the pretense of him having other principles that grates.
It's only proper that, when mental issues are made evident in those who hold high office, someone should offer up another from the opposing party who also suffers from the same affliction. Thanks Darrin. Hope your heart is ok.
Yeah, he's polling at 21% among likely voters, worse than Liz Cheney last year. One poll even has him polling at 10%. That's right -- one out of ten.

The only losers who voted "Favorable" are probably the McCain-Romney-Hillary-Biden loser coalition anyway.
I would support just McConnell in a vacuum being forced into retirement and having a special election this November. Someone like Comer would be a great replacement. Plus, it would make it very likely (as opposed to a coin flip) that Beshear would go down in the gubernatorial since they'd be on the same ticket this year.
Cameron 51, Beshear 44, Others 5 %
Comer 58, McGrath 37, Others 5 %
McConnell out is a net positive for conservatives and MAGA. Net negative for Biden and China.

House Democrats are intensifying their efforts to fend off cuts to the country’s largest nutrition program. But one Democrat who would typically be leading on the issue is notably absent from their new strategy: the top Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee.
Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries in late May assembled a task force on agriculture and nutrition led by Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) to respond to ongoing GOP efforts to restrict the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps, which serves more than 40 million low-income Americans. It’s a role that traditionally would be filled by Democrats on the chamber’s Agriculture Committee, led by the current ranking member, Rep. David Scott (D-Ga.).
Thompson denies there is anything out of the ordinary about the move, saying in an interview that, “We do task forces all the time.” But a dozen current and former lawmakers, Hill staff and lobbyists said the creation of a parallel body to play attack dog on the issue is highly unusual, if not unprecedented. And it underscores just how dissatisfied Democrats have been with the Scott-led efforts to counter Republican attacks on SNAP thus far — and how nervous they are about GOP bids to rein in the country’s nutrition programs as part of this fall’s farm bill negotiations.
Scott’s colleagues have been raising concerns with House leadership since last year about the 78-year-old Georgia Democrat’s health and ability to steer the committee minority through a critical period for agriculture policy. The farm bill is a once-every-five year package that will divvy up roughly $1 trillion in funding across programs to combat hunger, support farming, promote conservation and serve rural communities. “There are real questions about whether he’s with it,” one Democrat on the panel, who declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the subject, told POLITICO last year.
Getting rid of 80+ year old politicians would be a great thing.
Cool. Here's a 4 page thread of liberals calling Feinstein out by name.

You can't do the same for McConnell without both-sidesing. Just say Mitch McConnell is too old and he should retire.
Liberals want Feinstein gone so they can get a more progressive senator in like Schiff or Porter.
Conservatives want McConnell gone so they can get a more nationalist senator in like Comer. Not sure how deep the KY GOP bench is but I would have to reckon not too deep given they were weak on redistricting and also have struggled to win and keep the governorship there.
Mitch McConnell is too old and he should retire.
All politicians over 80 should retire.
All lives matter
Old lives matter, unless they hurt the economy.
Please. The next time you side with the his side will be the first time.
