His vote and support comes from the “anti Trump” folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardin Drake 1,829 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Oh, it extends to the local level too. Lots of defund the police folks in Austin now wondering why 911 response times are abysmal. Same folks who love wind and sun power now wonder why the grid is so unreliable. Biden himself doesn't inspire much loyalty or love, but they mostly favor his far left spending and policies.

Republicans don’t believe in paying bills at all anymore. Just like their leader. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always felt you to be fairly moderate but appears you are learning to exaggerate. See Kamala exaggerating at a Wisconsin rally in the news this morning.

Will require some from reflection on my part. I test slightly left and slightly authoritarian but pretty much bullseye center. According to you I am an extreme right sympathizer?

If they were in Germany in the 1930's they would have been part of the adoring crowd shouting Seig Heil! and throwing flowers. I just hope it doesn't take a repeat of that history before they open their eyes. Edited January 23 by homersapien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a group of people that actually believe a man can get pregnant and write law to protect such an illogical position. If the left can convince their followers that men can get pregnant they can convince them of anything they want. That is the danger of the left and the posters on here have bought into the ideology the left advances, no matter how much lunacy is demonstrated. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This question, too? And aren’t rank and file Republicans rejecting other Republicans for Trump? And if rank and file Republicans aren’t responsible for the embrace and exultation of Trump over other conservative, but less incendiary conservatives, who is?
