Most Canadians say Canada is Broken
Yzermandius19 replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Popular truths sell very well, as do popular lies. It's the unpopular truths and unpopular lies that don't sell, how true something is seems to make little difference whatsoever. -

Yzermandius19 replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Hardly anyone shares Dougie views, and no matter how hard he sells them on the truth, voters aren't going to want to hear it, they'd rather vote for a politician who blows sunshine up their asses instead. Unpopular truths do not win elections. Dougie isn't trying to sell anyone, and even if he was, it would just cause the electorate to double down on the derp. Why worry about things that are beyond his control and even if they were under his control he wouldn't force on anyone? Take his opinion or leave it, stop asking him to get politically involved by running for office or attending lame meetings that solve nothing, like it would make any difference when it obviously won't, and the downsides of doing so are legion for no actual gain whatsoever. -
America under President Trump
Yzermandius19 replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
This Trump is demented theory is funny stuff. Some people are just so triggered by Trump they will believe even the craziest nonsense if they think it makes Trump look bad. Wishful thinking is a helluva drug. -

Beating the Women's Tennis GOAT at 19 would be quite the feather in the cap, the kind of feather that will make the sports media even more tiresome than they already are if she does, but that's not her fault. -

I like Andreescu too, but the media gushing and playing up the Canadian nationalism angle surrounding her is tiresome. Most importantly tennis of any variety cant compete with top level MMA, even Bianca vs. Serena in the US Open Finals. It's Nurmagomedov-Poirer, there is no better fight in MMA right now aside from Nurmagomedov-Ferguson, and she simply cannot compete with that head to head, it's not even close to a hard decision. It would be nice if they weren't on at the same time, so I could watch both, but since they are, it's a no brainer which takes precedence. -

No tennis it is, especially when one of the greatest lightweight fights of all time is going down. If the tennis is still on after, maybe I'll watch it then. But hey, if you want to overlook Dustin Poirer, that's your prerogative, I simply advise against it. -

That's only because you don't know who Dustin Poirer is, if you did, you'd be hype too. There is a chance he could beat both Khabib and Ferguson, and if he does, he'll be the greatest lightweight of all-time. Screw women's tennis, if they want to go head to head with Khabib, then they lose every time, especially if he's going up against one the greatest lightweights of his era. -
The road to 2020

Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice, moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue. If Comrade Bernie wants to win an election on a national stage, he should move to Scandinavia. -

Confederation is like Dillon Danis, and we are like Khabib after neck cranking McGregor, gotta leap out of the cage and flying stomp that smack talking fool after we smashed his boy with the Clarity Act. Speaking of Khabib, he's fighting Dustin Poirer today, PPV starts at 2pm. Why so early? It's in Abu Dhabi. I am so hype, not as hype as I would be if it was Ferguson-Nurmagomedov that was about to go down, but as close as you can get to that, without Ferguson and Nurmagomedov fighting each other. Winner of Poirer-Nurmagomedov fights Ferguson to decide who is the greatest lightweight of all time. -

Zeitgeist is apparently all for racism, as long as they aren't the racists aren't white. It's only racist when the white people don't want to let in more racists, not when more racists are brought in. -

Prediction: Trudeau wins a majority this Fall
Yzermandius19 replied to QuebecOverCanada's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Scheer will be eviscerated as well, you are too busy tunnel visioning on Trudeau's weaknesses to realize it's not about how strong Trudeau is but how weak his opposition is compared to him. Trudeau wins that battle. -
America under President Trump
Yzermandius19 replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
She knew. She was derelict in her strategy, and the Dems are doubling down on the derp that lost them the Rust Belt in 2016 for 2020. The recession might happen before the election or after the election, exactly when is hard to predict. -

Trump is killing it in Fundraising, he's projected to raise $2 billion, which is more than three times as much as he had in 2016, the Dems are getting buried by him. Trump did more without a lot less in 2016. Clinton's team knew all about the EC and had double Trump's funds to spend trying to win the EC, and still lost, it wasn't a secret. Both candidates were trying to win the EC, the national popular vote was irrelevant and both sides knew it. -

Trump will have more resources to spend in those states, they lost their chance. It's not conjecture, that is the pattern, Romney looked better against Obama in these match up polls before he was nominated than after, it's a well known trend when running against an incumbent. -

Some polling means more than others depending on when they are taken. You are just such a polling noob that you don't know that. These kind of matchup polls had Ron Paul beating Obama in 2012, that's how relevant they are at this point. -

Polls show that it's the left who lives in bubble reading only left wing news while the right views both left and right wing news in far higher percentages. -
America under President Trump
Yzermandius19 replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Those polls mean nothing until after the nomination and even then are to be viewed with a massive grain of salt. If anything, the fact that they aren't up by more at this point is a bad sign, by the time they get through the nomination and Trump starts focusing fire on them, their favorability will plummet and so will their poll numbers. Trump is killing the Dems in 2020 fundraising, absolutely burying them, and he was outspent 2 to 1 last time and still won. Think of what he can do with a campaign warchest advantage. The Dems are screwed. -

Trump had 37.5% favorability on election day, he's at 42.5% favorability as we speak. Check RCP if you don't believe me. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/trump_favorableunfavorable-5493.html -

Yzermandius19 replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
The polling shows that Trump is more popular now than he was when he was elected, and that Rust Belt states are getting redder in 2020 than they were in 2016. -

It's not just his base, it's swing voters as well. His bullsh*t sells, if you stopped projecting your own views on the American electorate, you should be able to see that. -
Still Going to Buy the F-35, Really?

It's easier to fund because it easier to sell when we don't have to sell everyone outside of Ontario on it. -

Or maybe saying incorrect things doesn't hurt him the way you think it does, and it actually helps him a lot of the time. Ever think of that? -

The Clarity Act, that's how.
