tobetrained Posted Sunday at 04:27 PM Report Posted Sunday at 04:27 PM This is merely an attempt to calm a convo. It might be fruitless. This just to demonstrates how multiple things can be simultaneous true and contradictory. Here are the summarized data which support the NBC News analysis in the video. The analysis in the video helps to connect the dots (which I'm implying). Tennessee special election - Dec. 2nd, count as of Dec. 7th District results shown by 5 groups of counties, Davidson (Nashville), Montgomery (Clarksville), South Suburbs (Williamson), West Suburbs (Cheatham+Dickson), and Rural (rest of district). Davidson: 24% of the vote, D56pp margin, ->D19pp shift vs. 2024* Montgomery: 24%, R8, ->D12 South Suburbs: 15%, R23, ->D10 West Suburbs: 14%, R37, ->D8 Rural Counties: 23%, R50, ->D6 How to read: Davidson was 24% of the district-wide vote. In it, the Dem won by 56%-points (pp), 78% vs. 22%. This was a shift in favor of Democrats by 19% vs. 2024 when they won this portion of the county by 37pp, 67% vs. 30%... so the shift, ->D19pp, is the 2025 margin (56pp) less the 2024 margin (37pp).

Room4ustwo Posted Monday at 02:11 AM Report Posted Monday at 02:11 AM I watched the NBC video and even though Kornacki thinks the Dems could have done even better with a different candidate, a 19 point swing towards them speaks for itself. I dont see much that is contradictory, only the truth that a large swath of the American public now has serious buyer's regret. I'm guessing Trump is not capable of reversing this, but admittedly 11 months is a long time. 1 1 Quote
tobetrained Posted Monday at 04:24 PM Report Posted Monday at 04:24 PM OK. Let's try it this way. @Room4ustwo you're reply to rawfuckingonly's comment added two false statements in and of his comment itself. One, to dismiss him you added the MAGA/Trump part to your replay. In his comment, although clearly angry in tone, he did not make a pro-Trump/MAGA point. His comment was against socialism. And socialism is not the answer to Trump or MAGA. Two, to emphasize your point you added the false-narrative of the 2026 mid-terms. No election in any democracy is definitive let alone a mid-term election. And to the point in the NBC News video, Democrats would likely do better without the socialist rhetoric and policies. In his way, that was also rawfuckingonly's point, from a conservative perspective (my assumption on that). To your own "winter is coming" comment, politics and electoral outcomes are cyclical. There's no point in using such a statement when the very next election can throw eggs in your face. Also, it wasn't ->19%. 1 Quote

It's aimed at more of a whole at a certain audience, but in this case, not anyone\nIn particular on a personal level. This is just me venting my thoughts and feelings. This is just in case you want to hit me with yet another trumped up "Not Being Polite to Members" charge and throw me in "BZ jail." Okay. And let's not mention or say a word about the constant lies, the blue anon conspiracy theories, the smear campaigns, in a heaping load of fictional, and the heaping, regurgitated, never ending diarrhea of the mouth liar horseshit that come from the democrats, and worst and no more so, the fucking radical retards that fill the ranks of the "progressive" left and their socialist idealisms which I for one, will NEVER support, not only because socialism doesn't fucking work, but also because the United States of America is not a socialist country and I for one will always vote, and if need be fight to the death against my country becoming one. Go to the UK if you like your socialism so much. Enjoy their freedoms where the police knock on your door and arrest you for some comment you made on social media that's deemed "offensive" because, well..."feelings." "You're under arrest because someones or some groups feelings were hurt because you stated something "offensive" online." We have a thing called the 1st amendment in this country, and YES, that includes "hate speech" and no -I don't condone it or encourage it, but free speech is FREE SPEECH. Period! If you want , conditions placed on free speech, there's plenty of other countries you can go to that cater to that kind of thing. GO THERE. Don't try to push it here. A quit crying about free speech or rights being taken away to free speech while trying to censor other people because you don't like or agree what they say. That's the epitome, the pinnacle of double standards and hypocrisy. Radical leftoids, woke libs, and socialist loving commies: Take that bullshit agenda somewhere else. Despite your best efforts, the United States of America will never be a socialist country, at least not while I'm alive and living here as a proud US citizen (yeah, "sorry" but not really, *I LOVE MY COUNTRY* and if you don't, fine, DONT. But we're not gonna be a socialist country. Not when the midterms come around. Not in the next presidential election. NEVER. So you might as well pack your fucking bags if you don't like it here, and blow your ass the fuck out of here and take your open borders wet dream with you. Illegal immigrant TRESPASSERS don't have a right to be here. They don't get a free pass and get cut in line just because they "work hard" and/or are just trying to "live a better life." SO ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS. THEY COME FIRST AN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS AREN'T WELCOMED HERE. Personally, i don't care who you vote for or what your political views are, and\nYou can make whatever assumptions you want about me. I could give two shits and a rat's ass what you're misconceived notions or any weak baseless assumptions are about me. I could care less i'm more than willing to talk about it. But I've HAD IT with the hypocrisy, double standards and bold face fucking LIES from the dems, their supporters, the *REGRESSIVE* left. I'M SICK OF YOUR LIES! I'm sick of your fucking bullshit! And stop acting like you're the voice of LGB people and that you speak for the "gay community." YOU'RE NOT. Forgive me if I come off a little strong and blunt (Or dont. I don't give a shit "Sincerely", an openly gay, legal American citizen who's FED THE FUCK UP with your bullshit! P.S. ~You're the CULT. The REAL CULT Not the other way around. Everything you accuse your "enemies" of doing, YOU'RE THE ONES DOING IT. I didn't know that Peter Thiel walked among us. Quote
