The 2020 Election: Is Common Sense Making a Comeback?

[Foxfyre]

Who's in charge of defining what "common sense" means?

Is it the same person who's in charge of defining what "racism" and "socialism" mean?

Because if it is, holy crap, we're fucked!

And while I'm here, why isn't there a voting option for "It's 16 freaking months out, I don't know yet"?
.

Take your pick:

Thomas Payne wrote in "Common Sense", perhaps the most influential publication leading up to the American Revolution:

. . .“Europe, and not England, is the parent country of America. This new world hath been the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty from every part of Europe. Hither they have fled, not from the tender embraces of the mother, but from the cruelty of the monster; and it is so far true of England, that the same tyranny which drove the first emigrants from home, pursues their descendants still. . .​

Definition by Merriam-Webster:

Definition of common sense
: sound and prudent judgment based on a simple perception of the situation or facts

expanded commentary: "
Choose the Right Synonym for common sense
SENSE, COMMON SENSE, JUDGMENT, WISDOM mean ability to reach intelligent conclusions. SENSE implies a reliable ability to judge and decide with soundness, prudence, and intelligence. a choice showing good sense COMMON SENSEsuggests an average degree of such ability without sophistication or special knowledge. common sense tells me it's wrong JUDGMENT implies sense tempered and refined by experience, training, and maturity. they relied on her judgment for guidance WISDOM implies sense and judgment far above average. a leader of rare wisdom.​

Cambridge Dictionary:
common sense
ability to use good judgment in making decisions and to live in a reasonable and safe way

Collins Dictionary:
common sense
Your common sense is your natural ability to make good judgments and to behave in a practical and sensible way

"Sound" and "Prudent" are certainly subjective, especially regarding the issues that face us and possible actions we might take.

Two intelligent, reasonable and experienced people can (and do) disagree on what is sound and prudent in any given situation.

If a voter likes a candidate, they're going to tell themselves that their preference is based on common sense. What else are they going to say?

Trump gets my vote in 2020 no matter his failings.
I wouldn't even think of voting for a Democrat, even it would keep me from going to hell. I'd rather put up with the devil.

Robert Curry raised an interesting question in this short essay this week.
https://amgreatness.com/2019/07/03/is-common-sense-making-a-comeback/

He observed the glaring lack of common sense in the Democrat debates with Julian Castro advocating abortion rights for transgender women taking the top prize for the proposal demonstrating the least common sense. But as he sadly but accurately pointed out, whoever wins the Democrat nomination is unlikely to do so by promoting a common sense agenda, goals, objectives etc. (Personal note: common sense Democrats are being booed off stages almost everywhere.)

That is a sad commentary on our current political environment though probably many Democrats will not agree with it. But for conservatives, Curry is just stating the obvious and preaching to the choir.

The more interesting point he raised is that President Trump was/is clearly the common sense candidate. I concur with that. He isn't partisan. He is no ideologue. He can't be described as a conservative, libertarian, or right winger. But his vision, his goals, his objectives are all solidly rooted in common sense. What the problem actually is. What needs to happen to solve it.

But the question is, did America elect him mostly because he offered common sense that we were hungry for? Or did people vote mostly against what they saw as blatant obviousness of Clinton dishonesty and corruption mixed with lack of vision and promoting an unacceptable status quo?

If the vote was more against Hillary than for Trump, what will that bode for the 2020 election? Is there sufficient appreciation for what the President has accomplished to earn him sufficient votes to win next year? Or has America lost it to the point that they will vote for irrationality instead of common sense?

So where are you at this point?

Will you vote for President Trump because he is the Republican? Or because he is the common sense candidate? Or will you vote against him because he is Donald J. Trump? Or will you vote against him because he is on the Republican ticket? Or will you vote for any Democrat to prevent a Republican win? Or will you vote for somebody else for reasons not enumerated here?

Please explain your vote.

(Multiple choice on the poll and you can change your vote if you change your mind.)

Simple Question….

Is President Trump a liar?

You bet. Just like Obama was. Whats your point?

I don't judge them by what they say. I judge them by what they do. Common sense tells me that positive/beneficial results are what should be pursued and promoted rather than ineffective results/negative consequences.

President Trump's policies, regardless of what anybody thinks of him personally, are producing mostly positive and beneficial results for essentially every American demographics far more than any negatives that can be identified. And he accomplishes that by applying what most common sense Americans would count as common sense efforts and solutions. At least those who love America more than they hate Trump would count his results as due to common sense efforts and solutions.

 

[Foxfyre]

Haven't decided yet.

If, come 2020 election day, I'll assess whether I figure I'll live another 4 years.

If I think I will then it'll be a vote for President Trump's Second Term.

If I think I won't then I'll vote Democrat as a sort of last thumbing-of-the-old snoot to help the current generation gets taxed, screwed and repressed as thoroughly as they so roundly deserve.

LOL. I can share the sentiment but I'll vote for personal responsibility, accountablity, rights, and liberty for the sake of the grandchildren. I don't want them to blame me for whatever crappy world the radical left hands them.

If you think tRump is the "common sense candidate" you might need to look up the definition of "common sense".

Not one of your 20 plus candidates has any common sense. Rumpy will run rings around them all.

Are you sure? Did you look it up? 'cause I don't think you are correct.

/——/ Kamala vows to give more taxpayer money away. Kamala Harris announces $100B plan for black homeownership, tackling racial wealth gap

Well in the face of President Trump's impressive successes--successes achieved most by empowering and providing incentive for people to help themselves--that's pretty much all Kamala and her ilk have to offer. President Trump has lowered unemployment and boosted incomes among black Americans to record levels. But it wasn't done by handouts or charity. It was done by producing an economy in which pretty much all can thrive who are willing to do so.

But all the radical Democrats have to offer is promises to make the richer less rich and give free stuff. That doesn't provide encouragement or incentive for anybody to do anything to improve their circumstances. All it does is create dependency and then problems when they run out of other people's money.

By January of this year the verdict on black Americans going back to work was very evident that Trump was as good as his word for black Americans:

More and better jobs for black Americans can't help but narrow the wealth inequality and promote more black American owned businesses and home ownership.

But the question is, did America elect him mostly because he offered common sense that we were hungry for? Or did people vote mostly against what they saw as blatant obviousness of Clinton dishonesty and corruption mixed with lack of vision and promoting an unacceptable status quo?

If the vote was more against Hillary than for Trump, what will that bode for the 2020 election? Is there sufficient appreciation for what the President has accomplished to earn him sufficient votes to win next year? Or has America lost it to the point that they will vote for irrationality instead of common sense?

So where are you at this point?

Will you vote for President Trump because he is the Republican? Or because he is the common sense candidate? Or will you vote against him because he is Donald J. Trump? Or will you vote against him because he is on the Republican ticket? Or will you vote for any Democrat to prevent a Republican win? Or will you vote for somebody else for reasons not enumerated here?

Please explain your vote.

If you think tRump is the "common sense candidate" you might need to look up the definition of "common sense".

Yep, billionaires always lack common sense don’t they?

Do you really think he's a billionaire? I don't. I think that's why he's hiding his taxes.

You saw his tax return for 2005 didn’t you… Let’s go on what we know… Whatta ya say?

2005? How many bankruptcies has he filed since then?

/——/ None. Trump has never filed bankruptcy. Tanks for asking.

Robert Curry raised an interesting question in this short essay this week.
https://amgreatness.com/2019/07/03/is-common-sense-making-a-comeback/

He observed the glaring lack of common sense in the Democrat debates with Julian Castro advocating abortion rights for transgender women taking the top prize for the proposal demonstrating the least common sense. But as he sadly but accurately pointed out, whoever wins the Democrat nomination is unlikely to do so by promoting a common sense agenda, goals, objectives etc. (Personal note: common sense Democrats are being booed off stages almost everywhere.)

That is a sad commentary on our current political environment though probably many Democrats will not agree with it. But for conservatives, Curry is just stating the obvious and preaching to the choir.

The more interesting point he raised is that President Trump was/is clearly the common sense candidate. I concur with that. He isn't partisan. He is no ideologue. He can't be described as a conservative, libertarian, or right winger. But his vision, his goals, his objectives are all solidly rooted in common sense. What the problem actually is. What needs to happen to solve it.

You wouldn't know common sense if it bit you in the ass.....

You're a Tard....

You support grown men using little girls bathrooms.

You support every perversion known to man.

I could go on and on but I don’t have all week.

And as usual you have no idea what you are talking about.

You're a Tard....

Just look at what you support....
