Don't forget the "everything is a distraction, all I care about is [insert single issue]" crowd.

I sat there and watched that dumbass Megyn Kelly tell Bill Maher that trans was her single issue. I mean....WTAF. How in the fuck can people be so goddamned stupid as that? She's sitting there with all that fucking privilege that maybe .1% of the world might have - she's rich, she's white, cishet, xtian, okay, she's not male, and she has gobs of fucking money.

And she's worried about what the trans are doing to the soil.

Apparently, there are no other pressing problems. The trans are coming to get her.

Everyone else's abortion (my own/relative's/close personal friend's abortion doesn't count, that was special circumstances)

It's very sad that this is exactly true.

And you know what happens when insurance premiums go up: People stop having health insurance unless they are sick. With more sick people flooding private insurance, ALL healthcare premiums go up. Good job, conservatives! You’re really good at sinking ships!

That's their plan. They, for whatever reason, believe that a population of 100,000,000 unintelligent people are somehow better long term for their continued elitism.

The number is completely made up, and I can't find any references as to why they would think 100,000,000 is the sweet spot.

The heritage foundation is the deep state cancer that needs to be immediately cut out of this country.

Without the HF where would Dems and Republicans get legislation invading our privacy, taking away our rights, and protecting capitalism?

It's funny if anyone thinks that strategy can compete with China in the long term. Hell, I'm not sure how much longer the west will stay "on top" in the short term (doesn't really feel like winning lately).

America is no longer seen as a world leader. Trump has made us a punchline

And yet no one can describe what "winning" means when comparing states economically. It's weird that as a species we haven't figured out that illtreatment of our peers is why we haven't advanced as a society anywhere.

My insurance has already tripped since May. I will just cancel and pay out of pocket I guess. I can't afford more. In fact I can't afford it now.

Bad headline. ... Explain How ... GOP Are About to Make More Money For Their Donors By Depriving Millions.

And thousands of citizens will die because Republicans wanted tax cuts for the wealthy and wanted to torture minorities.

The only minorities they should be focusing on are the billionaires destroying the country.
