Why do only 19 states allow non citizens to get a drivers license???????
The majority of states are intentionally dehumanizing people.
I am not safer because undocumented folks don’t have a drivers license.

The reason it was considered an 'ideological referendum' after the fact was because the media had decided beforehand that enough was enough, if he won this time he's won everything forever - not just because they support them, although much/most of them do, but because they wanted to End The Debate
Douthat writes that 2024, when Harris lost by 1.5% of the popular vote, was "an ideological referendum and progressivism lost." I wonder why he didn't view the 2020 election, when Trump lost by 4.5% of the popular vote, as a far more significant loss for conservatism.

Comparing the relation between the presidential election results in 2020 and 2024 with the post-election commentary is a fascinating exercise.

2020
Biden 81,283,501 popular votes, 51.3%
Trump 74,223,975 popular votes 46.8%

2024
Trump 77,302,580 49.8%
Harris 75,017,613. 48.3%
Douthat is MAGA

The last school was closed in 1970‼️
I don’t believe it is AI that is causing these corporate layoffs
AI still not accurate enough.

It’s the pending recession.

They know it’s coming next year
Is this re-education?
Trump voters are clueless that their vote got them here
While at the same time, make Election Day a national holiday.
Johnson believes his job is to obey King Donald. Nothing more.
Johnson is saying, We will not disobey the king.

It is not the job of democrats to open the Government.
Donald 💯has normalized violence and the media is doing a piss poor job of reporting it.
Remember 2016 rallies?
“Punch the guy in the face. I’ll pay for the lawyers “
Yes, and the only question on the application is,
“ Are you comfortable with lying”?
