Draynar posted:Guys, he's already tried to remove that law, we have a super majority of GOP in the house legislature, he can't veto or do anything. Basically we only removed one guy and left all the others pushing that law in power. We continue to shame them but until 2017/18 re-elections D's in this state cannot actually do anything but bitch. Do governors have anything like executive orders, but within the state?

GalacticAcid posted:What? It's like the main legislative priority of state level GOPs. Breaking unions to suppress wages is their raison d'être. That's just because unions tend to be leftist and don't want owners to have 100% of the money. They're just using another tool to break leftists, union busting itself isn't the goal (see their exceptions for pigs for evidence).

Former Everything posted:im lollin at this post because all of the ragepots in this thread voted third party and now the dem thread is just them getting real red in the face and pounding their keyboard about Lol the hildog white knighting after she blew the election to trump. 3rd party votes didnt matter this election, it wasnt and will never be her turn, deal with it

Concerned Citizen posted:she definitely would have won if the 3rd party votes could have been re-allocated to top 2, so they did matter Are you assuming every Stein/Johnson/whoever else vote would've gone to hildog? Lmao. Plenty of them would've stayed home or written in something or left it blank. Also, advocate for electoral reform so we get runoffs and preferential voting instead of punching the left for not being centrist. They never will be, that's why they didn't vote hildog. Efb

The master sergeant supported Trump and mentioned the horrors of war. My friend said he would have been more useful if he came back in a wooden box. Maybe the trooth is in the midle~

docbeard posted:I would very much (when I'm not being selfish) like Ellison to win. (I think Buttigieg should set his sights higher. Honestly, Ellison too, but someone's gotta do the job, and it might as well be someone good.) I think he'd be great at the job, and I think it would be a great symbolic victory and a good first step in progressives taking over the coalition. (I don't want to kick centrists out, I want to put them to work, but I sure as hell don't want them in charge any more) You could join the socialist party, that might work better to drag dems leftward, to merge parties.

Occupy was people trying that nonviolent protest thing that our whitewashed history books taught and finding out that it's bullshit. You have to cost the system more in damage than it would coat to just appease your demands.

Condiv posted:they did this like a month ago. it'll be nice if they start being good and actually helping people (apparently there'e going to be a new drug reimportation bill and cory booker has sworn to god he'll vote for it this time), but i'm pretty doubtful. they refused to be good dems even in the shadow of trump's ascendancy, why would they change now that they think they can do nothing and slide back into office because of how awful trump is? This is what annoys me. It's easy for dems to introduce cool legislation like drug reimport now when they know it'll be vetoed anyway, why didnt they do it back when they had the supermajority in 09?
