Tariffs that will cost consumers money? Keeping foreign students from attending schools here? I wonder how he figures that Trump is the lesser of two evils? So many more things I would I ask him about
sklansky.bsky.social (@sklansky.bsky.social) reply parent
He is really not much different than other Trump supporters. He said he agreed with Trumps policies. I would like to know which one. Mass deportations of people who haven't committed a crime? Sending Ice to patrol cities and not patrolling the worst places?

@jeffpearlman.bsky.social Good interview with Mandrich. However like all Trumpers, he is pretty much drinking the kool aid. Despite the examples you gave him and you could have given him a lot more (not saying you should have) and you still wouldn't convince him.

fighting the Civil War. I have been reading the Barn by Wright Thompson. It has to do with the barn in which Emmet Till but it is really much more than that. It is also the history of Mississippi and how it became the state it turned out to be. Thompson was born in the delta area

It doesn't seem like the signers of the Constitution gave much thought to residents voting. I couldn't find out if it was by omission. Residents voted for President in 1800. And after that not until 1964. It does seem rather unfair that they couldn't do that.

regarding making Washington a state. In 1790 there were about 5,000 people in what became the Capital. In 1800 14,000. I am not sure why the population was so high. No doubt businesses got started. At the time legislators probably didn't have 2n homes.

Their feeling is that Democrats have offered nothing to the working class. Just one of the reasons that voters turned towards Trump. He promised a lot to the working class and hasn't accomplished any of them. And I think your editor was probably right about Biden.

Only independent media has been tough on Republicans and that depends on who you read. On the other hand a lot of independent media I read (progressives) place a lot of blame on the Democrats on where we are at right now. The know Trump is terrible, but they say he is just a symptom
