And even a man as ignorant as Trump has probably heard of Hitler, but that hasn't stopped him from being pals with notorious Hitler lovers. *> The thing I keep pestering JC about is policy* > And I keep saying I didn't like Trump's *POLICY* of nullifying any election he loses so he could become a right wing dictator.

Those parties also hurt Biden in 2020 but not enough to keep him from winning. This new organization that you referred to should really be called Fifth Wave not Third Wave, and all it's likely to do, even if it manages to gain some momentum, is to split the third party vote that wouldn't be going to Biden anyway. The Green and Libertarian parties should worry about this more than the Democrats. By contrast the modern Republican Party, that is to say the Republican party after it went nuts, has never had to face a third party challenge, but if Donald Trump doesn't win the Republican nomination it's virtually certain to face a very serious third-party challenge from a former president in 2024 ensuring a democratic victory. *> and the reason I pester him about policy is something you'd think an > engineer would groove on, a flowchart diagram.

In the first place, on a list of problems facing the US, Street crime is not even in the top 10. In the second place it's a fact that 7 of the 10 states with the HIGHEST per-capita rates of violent crime voted Republican in 2020, and 7 of the 10 states with the LOWEST per-capita rates of violent crime voted Democratic in 2020. However I realize facts will never change your political opinions because facts had nothing to do with how they were originally formed. *> Politics has nothing in it basically, in my oppy except to fund > Technology to solve actual problems, troubles, inequality, whatever. * > And I didn't like Trump's *POLICY *of radically reducing research and development spending: Trump's 2021 budget drowns science agencies in red ink, again <https://www.science.org/content/article/trump-s-2021-budget-drowns-science-agencies-red-ink-again#:~:text=The%20government's%20investment%20in%20scientific,%242.822%20billion%2C%20to%20%2440.638%20billion.> John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> 87m 2zs k -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
