What a crock of sh*t. [i][ with all these trumpers are running around doing the things they do/i].
Care to explain , with facts not more communist BS, what Trump supporters are doing?
Lets talk about what creepy Joe and the sh*t show are doing. NY is having to pay billions to deal with the influx of illegal biden has let in and are about to declare a state of emergency, because they dont have the money.
Corruption, lies, weaponizing the justice system, and like your post...propagandizing BS, and pedophilia .
And in true communist fashion you attack patriotic Americans and fail to point out what all of you commies have done that you think is so great.
Tea party Republican my *ss!

Yeah. That’s a no for me dawg! I respect the “I’ve got to do what’s best for me” mentality but the answer to that isn’t found in the Democrat party and the blame isn’t to be placed on the Republicans. The problem with the Republican Party is there’s too many of them that aren’t really Republicans.
I respect that you want to and are trying to feed your family. Kudos to you. However, without knowing or even pretending to know your circumstances, there are a lot of jobs out there that pays well above minimum wage.

Credit for trying but a solid no. The party of Rinos is busy getting its ass handed to them, and if you're honest with yourself you know why. Now excuse me while I go make another donation to the Re-Elect Trump campaign.

Welcome to the party, Not cynically either. It's good when people see reason and the light.
I myself find myseslf continually blown away by vast hordes of people who seem deadset convinced whats good for the goose is good for the gander so to speak and what I mean is those who can't mentally process that the company they work for and they themselves might have finanical interest that are something of a zero sum game where the more your employer wins the more you lose and the more they lose the more you benefit.
Workers often seem convinced whats good for the company they work for is good for them personally and yet we know that isn't always the case in the democraatic party.
also though while I welcome you i would point out that the other side tends to vote red for reasons having little to nothing to do with the economy, it's all guns and god over there in the republican party.
Obama said they cling to god guns and religion and then walked it back but it was true. Every time politicans are honest it's like they end up having to apologize for speaking the truth because the truth offends certain segments of the population.

Throughout the world, the right uses 'culture war' issues to divide people and to get ordinary working-class people to vote for parties and support institutions that actively work against their interests.
They will say that the woke elite is screwing you, they will wrap themselves in the flag and say that immigrants are stealing your jobs. Then they cut taxes for the wealthy and slash welfare programs that people (of all creeds and colours) badly depend on.
Trump and other right-wing populists are actually correct in what they tell people are some of the problems. Free-market capitalism has been for the working class. International Finance really is outsourcing jobs. However, not only do they fail to deal with these problems, they pursue policies that actually make things worse.

The ole saying goes.
If you’re not a liberal while you’re young- you got no heart.
If you’re not a conservative when you get older- you got no brain 🤓
Republican has lost all meaning.. it’s just a tribe at this point

@HoraceGreenley WTH are you talking about? Looks like the Texas chick blocked me. So she left a warm seat for you at the kids table. Now go finish her chicken nuggets.

Kids on WIC? Mothers use WIC. Nursing moms especially. It feeds moms.
That's why I'm skeptical of the "view" here.

@Prisoner1972 yup. And people who used it sound utterly different from you. That's my point.
Liar means you are politically conservative.

@Roundandroundwego I've done most of the talking. I need you to tell me more . So go ahead tell me more...
Prisoner1972 · 51-55, MVIP
@Roundandroundwego so it looks like I left you speechless. Now you go sit over there at the kids table with that Texas chick.

Republicans are a lot smarter than Democrats, because they really know how to screw people and make them line up for and love it.
Of course, it helps that they're an American political party.

I was a tea party type in the beginning. I think the idea really was fine initially. Then the wackos took that away too.....
bijouxbroussard · F
Good for you. I’ve always been a Democrat because the GOP platform never represented the issues or values important to me.
But until the Tea Party and then MAGA it was just about different views. Now, however, Trump and his followers have divided the country like few things I’ve seen.

Equality is better than seeing extreme discrepancies in income that is for sure.

Don't blame Trump over your own failures in life.
Prisoner1972 · 51-55, MVIP
@NativePortlander people that feel demoralized tend to lash out against other people. Read Love Letter to America. I posted the link. The first phase of subversion is demoralization. And with an accusatory statement like you made, I sense that you are demoralized. And if you are demoralized you could be vulnerable to all different kinds of lies. So be careful of the lies you might have already fallen for, my friend.
