In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It seems to me that repubs long ago figured out that they can get into power and run up the deficit by spending big on private pork projects and cutting taxes, then they get voted out which is fine. They spend that period hounding the dems over their inability to cut the deficit meanwhile dems can't afford to implement their big programs because the deficit, so they get voted out. Then repubs get back into power and continue the cycle.
It's actually very clever and an excellent long-term strategy. Dems will never do anything drastic to cut the deficit so there's no risk to repubs to be out of direct power for a few years.

And the Democrats always take them at their word. Charlie brown, lucy, etc.
Lindsey getting rightfully smashed on twitter for this
That's why there needs to be a purge of leadership in the Democratic party. Schumer, Pelosi, Hoyer and Perez may well be cast aside if the Dems do well in November. I hope so, we need a bit of Alan Grayson without the ego fighting for the majority.
I also wanted to ask you. If Biden gets the nomination along with a Bernie endorsement would you find that adequate in this moment of time?
He's really gone off the rails since his lover died.
Lindsey does look like he could do with a lover to take the edge off things a bit.
No I wont vote for Biden or Booker. I would vote Gillenbrand, Warren, Bernie. I'd have to think about Harris if it came to that.
I agree with that except for Gillibrand. I have a different view on 2020. I think the next Democratic president will have a massive clean up at the end of this current shitshow. Can you see yourself sucking it up for 4 years so as to keep trump a one term president?
Anyone who wants the US to stay in the Paris climate accord will need to vote Dem (even if its an imperfect one) since Trump's withdrawal can only take effect in November of 2020, which means his replacement could undo it before it takes effect.

The 12th-dimensional chess strategy of giving Republicans what they want is going great, and Republicans will soon have more of what they want.

Seriously everyone in the Democratic party should resign out of shame and quit politics. Everyone.
In their retirement they can cosplay West Wing-style debating and own the GOP by their own logic, in the real world some opposition with actual political sense is needed. A 18-year old whose only exposure to politics is Malcolm Tucker would be a good start.

Bunch of fecking idiots. Pitiful... *spits
Never trust a Republican.
That's the problem .The likes of Pelosi and Schumer trusts them again and again.
Why don't the Democrats have more fecking balls? Might get some of the hard nuts to vote for them. Just a bunch of *****.
If anyone's interested in a historian forensically analysing contemporary "interpretations" of Irish history, Liam Hogan is worth checking out.
Dems on twitter going apeshit about McConnell's comments. How long before they forget?
Because establishment Democrats all eat from the same donor trough.
True.
This why this election and every election is simply not a blowout for the Dems.
Corporatists.
She is right.
This has been proposed before but it needs to be coupled with the other social programs like Social Security and Housing.

lmao
How are the Democrats this consistently stupid? How do they get outmanoeuvred so easily? It genuinely boggles the mind, they're idiots.
Christ, we've been in Afghanistan for 17 years. That really does boggle the mind. Does anybody even know what we are fighting for anymore?
holy shit this is going to be fun

That's an old one. Haven't thought about that in ages.
I can confirm that current 17 year old high schoolers generally have no clue what exactly the war on terror is about.
Some 2016 Trump supporters seem amenable to Sanders.
No matter how many times I watch Trump supporter videos I’m always amazed people like this exist not far from where I live
Were they always this ignorant/parochial or they just got left behind since the 90s and are now a fantasy world with an economic-porn provided by the entertainer that is Trump? My family's bi-coastal so its not often you have these conversations.
Some voted for Trump for strictly economic reasons. Protectionist policies are popular with a lot of people .
