Eh… I’m sure that’s the case for some people, but a lot of left and right wing people seem to think democracy=my ideas winning. Those people seem to think Trump winning is not reflective of the (very shitty) will of the people.

Yeah uh, I really really hate to say it, but… democracy worked this time. The voice of the people is “Trump please”. Democracy just means you get what most people want, not what the best option is.

But that’s also not Arnold - he’s publicly said that he arrived with like $20 in his pocket but he is not a self made man, he’s a community made man. He’s not a “bootstrap” believer, he’s very vocally against that mentality too.

He’s true old school Republican, where they have some misguided beliefs about national debt but aren’t absolute loons.

E: quick Google gives this https://youtu.be/DOldEbWxgdQ?si=uJ8_CsHzoUBHTbH4

Theres better vids of it, but still - Arnold has been pretty consistently a level headed guy politically, even if he’s not right all the time.

Based and “unfunded tax cuts are theft” pilled

Sorry for the brain rot

Approval voting is also good. Really any of the alternatives create more representative outcomes.

NCD leaking lmao

Not to mention this is essentially the same line of reasoning Repubs keep using to make voting worse for everyone. Can’t give out water in line to vote because you might be “buying votes”, so you gotta wait in line 6 hours in the hot sun if you’re in a poor district.

But hey, totally cool when it’s ol Musky doin it for cash not for health!

Well that’s just nifty. Thanks for letting me know!

That is a fun fact! What’s the difference?

Bud this is a US politics community. Using standard American TLAs (three letter acronyms ;) ) in an American community when discussing an American article is completely acceptable imo.

No point in getting a little spicy when you’re the one out of place - “when in Rome”, yeah?
