nuke the filibuster and elect congresspeople that will vote for policies people want. nothing can happen until the filibuster is gone or one party gets a supermajority. the silver lining to this decision is it edges us closer to ending the filibuster. but until that happens asking what a deadlocked congress should do is like asking what should be done about a seized engine -- fix ir replace.

im not arguing the balance of power should change at all. im arguing procedural rules should change and we should elect people that vote for what we want.

arguing potus should have legislative power is arguing for a complete upheaval of the system. it's not a serious suggestion unless you think a revolution and constitutional convention is in the cards.

It's just tariffs, bro. I think you love Congress and hate the Presidency because you feel personally disenfranchised. You think you have a chance at winning a seat with your local rep. So you want them to change Washington.

none of that is true and it's crazy how quickly you become nonresponsive to a claim you made.

"you're just arguing congress should have more power."

"how?"

"you're just ysffm and think you're disenfranchided and that you'll be in congress one day!"

If Congress ended filibuster it would invariably allow the ruling party to make more decisions and hence more power. I agree they should do this. They are all grifters who profit from the stagnation and gridlock. They should be forced to do things. Similarly since they won't do anything on international trade the President should have the power to raise or lower tariffs. It would all be better if decisions got made. Then people would get more involved in politics because things would start changing faster and that would make people want to take the reigns way more.

do you understand how one of those things requires a simple senate majority and the other requires a constitutional amendment? they are not similar at all. let alone shifting of power within political parties versus shifting power in the government itself not being the same thing.

this thread asks what congress could conceivably do, not what the hypothetical ideal is. you seem to be confusing what i think we should do within the realm of possibility with what i think the ideal system is.

We should have no tariffs at all. We should allow protectionist Euros and third world trash to dump all their goods here and Hoover every last dollar out. We should not rest until America has zero manufacturing capability whatsoever. We must be a nation of home sellers, scammers, and DoorDash drivers. Anything less would be a crime against our holy father Free Trade.

The EU has been asking for a free trade deal with the US for years and has been rejected every time. The EU has very low average tariffs, as does the rest of the first world, all in line with or lower than the US's tariffs pre-Trump. Do you really think there are a shitload of European goods flooding the US market?

I’m ok with tariffs if needed to put pressure on bad actors or to otherwise protect US interests.

Trump changes the tariff percentages constantly on whims. It’s complete nonsense. Some staffer feeds him a quote and if Trump doesn’t like it there’s a new tariff. This has already caused real long term damage to all of us and our children. Anyone defending the way Trump had handled tariffs is a partisan hack.

Its funny Birdshit Amerishits are too insular and stupid to study what other countries have done. this isnt a new issue: trying to industrialize. You can look at China and other NOWAG countries or even India where Modi did a PLI scheme that gave subsidies if companies manufactured and hit certain production targets. He did this for certain sectors like electronics, toys, chips. He didnt just tariff everything pretending that wld stimilate manufacturing.

What Trump is doing is just stupid ZImbabwe level post colonial tariff everything cause "outsiders" are evil and we have to make everything domestically. This is literally third world socialist ideology that was tried in almost every Global South country and it failed

Hilariously Trumpkins pretend they are high IQ but they dont know anything abt furking history
