Yeah, I agree. It just looked like that kind of flub
It’s on them, all they had to do was file the paperwork correctly. Nobody is banning them or shutting them out.
We are talking about a party that gets less than one percent of the vote - even in polling that isn’t subject to ballot laws. The will of the people is not really being misrepresented here.
Can you give me your best example of a Socialist country that represents democracy?
Almost feels like he was reading a telepromter that had split the word “mig-rants” across two lines
The more you repeat this, the more clear it is you have a very childish understanding of electoral dynamics and voter motivations.
Yes, that’s definitely a relevant and insightful comparison to the US electoral system.
This is like saying the dude blocking traffic by wandering around in the street ranting to himself is a “threat to the automobile industry’s power so they must be afraid of him”.
Weird thing to say about a group that routinely takes majorities in national elections.
Surely a party that, on a good day, gets 1% of the vote, and on a bad day, can’t manage to file the right paperwork to get on the ballot, is really what the people want.
Implicit in “profit so much that money becomes trivial” is that they think this tax rate should apply to very high profit businesses/individuals.
In fact the US’ top tax rate was 90% for almost a decade and over 70% for 40 years - during a time many would consider “golden years”.

That’s an interesting possibility - is there any data to support it?
Here in Georgia the fight is in the center, for sure.
If voting didn’t make a difference, they wouldn’t spend $650 million on TV ads
