Just read the brief one page quickie interview on Steve King in the Sunday NY Times Magazine -
So you would consider another shutdown, too?
A lot of people think that was a mistake the last time, that it hurt the Republican cause. What was the penalty? We picked up 15 seats in the House and maybe nine in the Senate. That’s the kind of punishment I can handle.
Man - that hurts, but God Bless him, he is spot on. We are so fucked right now and maybe forever in terms of the House. And please spare me your bullshit that Elizabeth Warren is going to save the fucking Democratic party. She is not.
The problem is that way, way way too high of a percentage of the young and poor and minorities simply do not vote. THEY. DO. NOT. VOTE. Too hard to vote? Tough shit.
Thanks for getting your ass to the ballot box. Fuck you.
