Say a positive thing about the other political side.

I often see too much political division on here. I fear it will lead no where positive. People always seem to hate people with whom they disagree. So I thought maybe we could try and say something genuinely positive / something we respect about the people with whom we disagree.

I'll start - and since I'm not firm on either side of the partylines, I'll for both sides:

I respect that the Democrats were bold enough to bring forward candidates of either gender and of colour. I also respect them for taking upon them the responsibility of leading during the second world war.

I respect the Republicans for many of their candidates, both elected and non-elected. For example Goldwater for being a decent human being to his very core, Reagan for some of the best speeches ever delivered. And the politician I currently often disagree with, I respect Donald Trump for challenging China.

*Please keep it to genuine remarks. If you don't know what that means, please look it up or abstain from answering.

"Witty" remarks about positive things being losing elections or similar will be deleted.

At their best, The Republicans promote a platform of traditional values and grounded thinking, which represents a fair portion of this country's citizens. Their ideals involve smaller government so that a man or woman can create the life he/she chooses on their own merits. This is at their most idealistic.
