Schumer was brought into a briefing on Iran and clearly 'got his mind right' in there. I don't know who makes decisions in government, but it's not the people on camera. US elections are irrelevant to consequential matters, and we waste too much time thinking about them.
replyI never understand how someone can look at Trump and the last year and think elections don’t matter or have consequences.
replyI think this framing is bad, it's not that people don't think there are consequences it's that it's 50/50 on whether the consequences will be personally worse for them. There are few, maybe no upsides, to elections in the U.S. for the majority of the electorate.
reply> US elections are irrelevant to consequential matters
replyThis is nonsense. If you actually believe this, spend some time around your elected representatives and in Washington.
