You're still on this? we already debunked that talking point, and 'every possible metric' in US history is a further ridiculous extension of the claim.
Lol, not true at all. You say this a lot when it isn't true.
Education, quality of life, access to healthcare, affordability of housing, access to nutrition, domestic security, rural electrification, every possible metric, favors Democrats over time.

yeah yeah I know, the old better metric schitck. Unsaid in there in that stat, if it means anything in reality, could represent a 52%-48% win. and it implies one group is 100% better because they're 4% better...
conservative ideology has plenty of merits, as does the progressive platform. the flaw is the 2 party system that has forced a lot of gridlock and pandering to some shitty ideas as of late. but its a lot closer than most end of the spectrums like to admit when we look at how many truly shitty people there are on both sides of the aisle. 90% of them are self serving asshats. for example, I cant wait for the eventual democrat fix and the pressure for them to not protect themselves and their staffs that they're now slinging at the GOP.
We're post collaboration. The well is poisoned. I see no reason to work with people who just seem to want to shit the bed all the time. Call me bitter after watching for years as the Democratic party begged the GOP to help craft a health care bill and see them just state that their number one goal was politically motivated (remove Obama via reelection through obstruction). They can suck a dick with their racist tea party and all that. Crying about overtaxation from the federal government when Obama had lowered federal taxes to the lowest of any American president since Eisenhower. They're immune to reason. Conservatives are such emotional voters it is just so vexing.
