Hearing Set in Case Over Whether Terry McAuliffe is Properly on Virginia November Ballot — 24 Comments

  1. We all know that if this were a minor party or independent candidate that they would be off the ballot over this, so I say take him off.

  2. I live next to Virginia and I am not surprised the Democratic Party of Virginia hasn’t adopted the Hammer and Sickle as their new symbol and battle-cry. Virginia Democrats make California’s Newsom look like a right-winger.

  3. @Joe: At least the VA courts aren’t run by wingnuts named “Joe” and “Bigdaddyluvsu.”

    @BigDaddy You probably make Liz Cheney look like a Commie. #fify

  4. Control freak STATISTS — commie/fascist STATISM versions

  5. Hitler was a national SOCIALIST which means he was a leftist. I am a RIGHT WING NATIONAL CAPITALIST. Show me the “millions dead ” from that??

  6. How are you defining national capitalism? Because that could be anything from the economic nationalism of Ross Perot and Donald Trump through a state capitalist system similar to much of what China has.

    Protectionist import tariffs and occasional subsidies to shield the domestic economy or state owned businesses whose purpose is to advance the interests of the nation?

  7. The first one. Not the second. I’m not a fan of state owned enterprises or China. I did vote for Perot and Trump ,twice, each.

  8. Hitler was a national socialist. They were as bad as the Zionist led international capitalists and globalist. The international Marxists are the worst of all. I’m a national capitalist, which is the best system.

  9. I voted for Pat BUCHANAN each time he ran in the primary and in 2000, in the general. Twice for Perot, Twice for Trump in the Primary, Twice for Trump in the General.

    Unlike my Uncle LARRY, THE PATRIARCH AND PROPHET, I was not privileged enough to have been old enough to vote for GEORGE WALLACE, LESTER MADDOX, or RONALD REAGAN. But as a young boy in the 80s I always added President Reagan to the Pledge of Allegiance and pledged my allegiance to him as well as to the Flag and the Republic.

    I pledge my allegiance to our True President DONALD TRUMP every day now. I am more than ready to shed blood for Him, whether it be my own, that of our enemies or a mix of both.

  10. Economic nationalism is not the best system. It may not kill millions as fascism ans socialism have, but its protectionism leads to bloated, inefficient domestic companies with little incentive to be competitive. That means poorer citizens who have to pay higher prices for worse services. Over time, as the companies become less efficient because they know they have a captive market in the US, they will become so bloated and inefficient that they will become incapable of exporting products. It’s not quite as bad as government enforced monopolies at creating high priced, poor service companies, but it is adjacent to that.

    We can already see the effect on some industries in the US. The US ship building industry has had protectionism since 1789. It began with hire taxes on imported ships and requiring that any US registered ship must have been constructed in the US and progressed by 1920 to requiring that all ships transporting goods or people between US ports to have been built domestically.

    The US began as a global shipbuilding powerhouse. That was lost first to the UK and now 90% of global shipbuilding takes place in Japan, South Korea, and China. Because of the inefficiency that protectionism enables, US built ships now cost 400% more than those constructed elsewhere. US shipbuilders have absolutely no reason to address that issue. Virtually the only ships still produced in the US are those intended for the captive domestic market, with 70% of those being purchased by the federal government. A 2019 study estimated that the Jones Act alone costs the US up to $64 billion a year, and a separate study from the same year estimated that Puerto Rican’s pay an extra $374 per capita in unnecessary shipping costs.

    Similar story with air travel. Federal air cabotage laws prohibit foreign airlines from competing in internal domestic air travel. The result is notoriously shitty service.

  11. See forced pledge to Hitler personally in Hitler tyrant regime.

    Too many monarch loving MORONS to count
