1/2: There's no way to predict the future with certainty, but historically Democrats and Republicans have had difficulty working together, often prioritizing their own political agendas over the good of the country.

2/2: That being said, it's possible for them to come to a compromise on certain issues if both sides are willing to work together in good faith.

They will work together to run up the national debt on pork projects. Anyone who plays by the rules and saves money for their kid's education or (gasp) retirement, will be the losers as inflation reduces the value of your hard earned money.

Democrats would rather have political issues they can use to buy votes so they can stay in power, than to actually solve problems.

The people I know who voted for Biden did so because they cannot stand Trump. Poor reason. Vote for the guy who will run the country the best.

washington doesn't work for the people in any productive fashion. those who want to actually get things done constantly have to butt heads with the political opportunists and the lobbyists. and let's not forget the unbridled power of corporate elites.

Joe's speech was magnificent. Nearly every sentence was slurred or had mispronounced words. His Unity message was clearly my way or the highway. He certainly sealed his chances to run again in 2024. He truly represents the Democratic Party of 2023.

Hrm, yes you see. My poor neighbors pay for my yards to be watered through their taxes. It's a great deal. We need more poor people in Columbia.

As Mizzou learned the hard way, campus protests can be very bad for the institution of higher learning. Police and even the National Guard should be used to restore order and make it safe for minorities (e.g., Jewish students) to attend class. The left has taken over higher ed, you see results. FJB

Harry, your reply to me is true, and accurate, but a peaceful protest is legal.

Start holding the alumni accountable who use the state taxpayer dollars in the form of their state government salaries to donate and buy tickets to athletic programs of these universities. Revoke their degrees, and find someway of filing criminal charges against them even if you have to make it up.

They need to revoke the degrees of each and every UM Columbia grad who has an engineering degree starting with the walking dictionary we have in my hometown who times stoplights. That computer geek can do nothing but quote a bunch of state regulations and policy that nobody understands.

No, not if they are peaceful, otherwise the answer is yes.

When was the last time you saw a peaceful leftist protest? "We need some muscle over here" ring any bells?
