The democratic party is on the decline. It is over for them.
smallest congressional minority since 1929
lost 60 seats in congress since 2010
lost 242 state legislative seats since obama took office
lost control of 30 state legislative chambers
lost around a dozen governorship's
>>712152491
As Trump already said.
Hillary is a disaster. That's the reason.
And because of her being so greedy and trying to outsmart Sanders, Trump got the trophy served on a golden plate. Seriously, one have to wonder how this is all possible? How corrupt the whole democratic party is.
Now they got what they deserved. All we wait for now is to lock up the clintons, podesta and co.

This is your daily reminder that a non-incumbent republican has won the popular vote since 1980, and you've only had three since the great depression, and one of those was Nixon with 43% against a split democratic ticket.
Here in Virginia, most people voted democrat for the House, but 8 of 11 seats went to republicans because of gerrymandering.
Your party is only relevant because of glitches in the system.
The political pendulum swings back and forth in America. If it wasn't so many kids' first election they would understand this fact.

Btw I am a conservative but I deplore the Republican party because it's run by Bible thumpers who are trapped in the past instead of small government fiscally conservatives like it should be
>>712155501
This is true. Just a pendulum swinging back and forth and the party that can pull off the most dirty tricks is the one that can make the pendulum swing their way for a little longer and move the country just a little more in their direction. The Republicans got their 3 branches this time around because...
>Trump plays on racial fears to get elected (but still mostly just a reaction from the right to a black liberal president for 8 years)
>Republicans gerrymandered congressional districts
>Republicans refused their constitutional duty to advise Obama on Scalia's SCOTUS opening
Now we have a country where more voters chose the democratic candidate for president but the republicans will have control over all branches.

And I'm not sure you're trolling. I believe you're that stupid.
Your two examples aren't really comparable, but anyway the person with a degree will have more lucrative opportunities available to them than someone without a degree. So 90% of the time they will earn more.
And why are you implying that those shithouse degrees are worth anything? Yes a small amount of grads take them, but the most popular degree bar far is business studies followed by history, Literature, medicine and psychology and law. All of which are important to avoid being a pleb

How do you look yourself in the mirror and say you are a Democrat when your party can't even be bothered to give a single flying fuck for Democracy? And how about the week of your partisans fucking rioting in hopes of overturning the results of a Democratic election?
If you're feeling defensive or see this as a bait, that's just the proof that you people have completely lost your minds. You risked your basic principles on the worst candidate your party has ever run.

You fuckers keep saying this but its not true. There's two main reasons we have the EC
1) It was a concession to slave states that had lower populations than free states....to ensure them the North wouldnt take their slavery away
2) To prevent a demagogue coming to power, the founding fathers envisioned a system where a layer of elites (the EC) insulated the presidency from a popular vote.

Let's be honest here. Unless Trump literally does something amazing (highly unlikely) you're looking at four years. Republicans don't like him, and he successfully split the Republican party. We might be looking at the 3-4 person race at the next election.
Realistically what is going to happen is that Trump is going to be completely ineffective, OR he's going to continue reversing the stances he stood on for most of the election because he realized that portion of racist/hate-filled America was going to vote for him.
People didn't vote for Trump because he's actually qualified for President. They voted for him because he basically gave them permission to be openly racist, or they hated Hillary's corrupt ass so much that they figured Trump couldn't be that bad.

yes and there's a direct correlation between wealth and homelessness. There are the most homeless in wealthy area because of gentrification.

La has large amounts of wealth, hence Skid Row
>>712158304
I mean those are contributing factors, but the primary reason was to give relatively equal representation to each state regard less of population, and then account for population. While slavery played a role in that decision, the primary factor was population not slaves.
When it comes to limiting the power of cities, that is more of a reason why the system has stuck.
>>712158304
>the founding fathers envisioned a system where a layer of elites (the EC) insulated the presidency from a popular vote.
THIS,
Except the founding fathers didn't envision a popular vote at all.
The first 9 presidential elections didn't have a popular vote. Instead, electors were appointed by the state legislatures, per the founding father's design.
Trump would never have won with the original design, nor did he win the popular vote.
He's president because we have a glitchy system nobody's bothered to fix.

And btw OP, i know that you don't like facts, but:
- The democratic party earned 6 seats in the house compared to 2014. that's an improvement
- The democratic party earned 2-3 new seats at the senate. that's an improvement compared to 2014.
- Even at the presidential election, most americans voted for the democratic nominee, trump won ONLY because of the retarded electoral college system
>>712158692
>it was Democrats who created the gerrymandering system
[citation needed]
Gerrymandering is inherit in the design of the House.
Yes, there was once an unenforceable constitutional amendment requiring districts to be "compact", but it did little to nothing to prevent gerrymandering.
it's foolish to count the democratic party out. even if it died, something would emerge from the ashes. those ideologies don't just *die*.
the GOP has unique opportunity with their supermajority, to do right for The People (and not just corporations and the rich). we'll see if they can deliver.
checks and balances are imperative though. anyone who champions a republican-only, or democratic-only run government, is an imbecile.
>>712158692
Democrats didn't create gerrymandering, neither party did. The concept of gerrymandering was first used by Elbridge Gerry. The origin of the word “gerrymander” was a combination of “salamander” and the last name of Elbridge Gerry, who as governor of Massachusetts in 1812 signed into law a redistricting plan designed to benefit his political party.
He was neither a Democrat, nor a Republican, but a Democratic-Republican.

the largest group on welfare in America are whites in red states. not blue states... red states.
moreover, the rate of employment/education is massively higher in blue states.
whites in red states are the literal niggers of the world. that's sure an inconvenient truth, huh! lol

Voter fraud on any feasible level is incredibly rare, and most studies have found that it doesn't happen at a high enough frequency to defend people's obsession with it.
It's like Republicans use of terrorism or illegal immigrants, as if either of those issues are that big of a problem (hint: they aren't).

Need I remind you that Trump is one of six people to win the Presidency without winning the popular vote AND 49% of Americans did not vote.
That's a legitimate reason for people to be upset, but if you want to hold that against them, then how about we talk about Republican's actions after Obama won the Presidency twice. Both times Republican voters acted a hell of a lot worse.
And you know what the best thing is? Republicans won, which is great, good for them. However, then a large chunk of Trump's voters went out and said/did horrible racist things.
Way to call out lefties when Republicans have behaved worse.
>>712158958
it's retarded to think the democrats are anywhere near "done". the republicans did worse after 8 years of bush, compared to how the democrats are doing right now after 8 years of Obama.
2008:
Senate: 57 Dem - 41 Rep
House: 257 Dem - 178 Rep
POTUS electoral votes: obama 365, mccain 173
As you can see, the Democrats completely ANNIHILATED the republican party in 2008.
Now let's compare it with 2016.
2016:
Senate: 46~47 Dem, 51-52 Rep
House: 193 Dem, 239 Rep
POTUS electoral votes: Trump 306, Clinton 232
The lowest point of the republican party in this century was much worse than the lowest point of the democratic party.
If the Democratic party pushes real progressives like Bernie and Elizabeth Warren in 2020, the republican party is going to get annihilated.

1. If they didn't vote, they don't get to bitch. They could've helped stop this, they did nothing. Further, you're assuming that would've swung things another way, that isn't certain.
2. Citation needed. Yes, some republican voters acted up, but they weren't rioting or bearing people.
3. Some Trump voters are acting bad, but then so are some clinton voters. Neither side has a premium on dickheads. To imply otherwise is to be dishonest. Lest you forget, Hillary fans have been caught on film beating the fuck out of a geriatric trump supporter.

If he didn't pay what he was required to, then he should. Once that becomes verified I will criticize him. And he admitted he should pay more, but didn't because the laws favored him. He did nothing wrong.
>>712161463
What? He didn't write the laws, he didn't influence them. If you are that upset about tax laws. Trump isn't responsible for how tax laws are written.
>>712161473
People do agree with Democratic policies.
They want more minimum wage.
They want to expand medicare.
They want reasonable gun control.
They want the rich to pay more in taxes.
They want gay marriage.
They want pot legalized.
Look at the polls, bitch.
The Republicans are just very good at pulling the wool over the eyes of idiots, who vote for Republicans out of imaginary fears.
>>712161870
Blue dog democrats might as well be republicans in terms of the effect they had on the Obama presidency.
>>712161449
paying 0 taxes while living in a gaudy gold penthouse while working stiffs struggle, living from paycheck to paycheck and pay more taxes.
Call me crazy, but that sounds wrong to me.
>>712161775
>Democrats, not being retards, are ready to "help Trump, as long as he helps the American people".
Sure they are.
This thread is proof of why people under 18 can't vote. They should raise the voting age to 30, you kids are fucking retarded
>>712161941
He is responsible for choosing to not pay federal taxes for 18 years despite being a billionaire who makes his money off of other people's hard work.
That's morally reprehensible. If he were a regular person, good on him; but the President needs to represent the best of us, not the worst.
>>712161730
I hear that that a lot, actually!
>>712158005
Shitty tactics? You mean like that vote flipping thing in the democratic primary the dnc did? Or the reports of vote flipping in Clinton's favor in Pennsylvania on election?
Please explain, I'll wait.
>>712162019
republicans sure love their drama, don't they. wwe, nascar, rodeos...
god they're such trash. classless, poor trash.
Are liberals better people than conservatives/republicans? Yes. In every regard.
>>712161473
>If people agreed with democrat policies, they would have gotten the House and Senate back.
Except that most people who voter for the House and Senate voted democrat.
Try to keep up.
>>712162011
He didn't write tax laws, he just obeyed them. You want guys like him to pay, vote for people who will change it.
>>712162170
Neat, nice to know I'm not the only one. Also, what's that drink with the java chips in it? I had a sample of one once upon a time, and it was decent and I can't remember the name of it.
>>712162112
Did he obey the law?
>>712162375
I already answered that he did. Bankers were following the letter of the law by providing sub-prime mortgages, doesn't make it less morally reprehensible.
Stop trying to defend the guy's actions. He is in the wrong, plain and simple.
>>712162327
I did, but the brainwashed in-breds out-voted the smart people.
>>712162375
>Did he obey the law?
The IRS apparently is concerned he didn't.
And when you grow up and do your taxes, you'll learn it's not as simple as "yes/no", there's TONS of questionable, gray area stuff.
>>712162360
Hmm... the Java chip Frappuccino or double chocolatey chip both have the chips in them. The difference being that java chip has coffee in in, the other doesn't.
I'm actually at work, anon. I'd give ya a pic, but I have to resize them before I can post and it's a pain in the butt.
I hate republicans but Democrates fucked themselves hard with hillary. Any dem senator with reasonable views and charisma could've beat trump but they had to go with the corrupt corporate shill with no likability
new AG: Jeff Sessions. Literal retard from Alabama.
we're all fucked now.
>>712162572
I think it was the Java chip. Thanks anon! Might go pick one up this afternoon.
>>712162708
What, you thought a Republican administration wouldn't be full of retarded Christfags?
>>712162708
But he's a well-documented racist, so the right will be thrilled.
>>712162764
after trump appointed sarah palin, I knew my worst fears were confirmed.
>>712162796
why do they claim to not be racist? I'd have more respect for that filth if they were just honest.
The sad thing? ALL of trump's retards will defend his embracement of the GOP establishment. They're unable to criticize him. Not surprisingly.
looks like dirty donnie decided to buy his way out of trouble after all.
>Before being elected President earlier this month Trump had publicly vowed not to settle the matter.
>"It's a complete 180 (degree turn) by Trump," the source said.

Truptards believed he was an "outsider", and that the best way to fight alleged corruption in Washington was to elect a billionaire real-estate developer from New Jersey.
Oh, and I bet they still believe he isn't beholden to Wall street.
If they really wanted an non-corrupt candidate, they should have supported Bernie.
>>712162483
No, he isn't. The people in the wrong wrote the laws. He has no responsibility to pay what he doesn't owe. You're asking him to make what amounts to charitable donations to the IRS.
>>712162521
And who did you vote for?
>>712162562
Innocent until proven guilty.
