At this point, we know the differences are irreconcilable between libs and conservatives

Which is a completely stupid metric given the fact the most population of any state resides in major cities. For example we are a purple state but some consider us red since we usually have a RINO Republican Governor and our state legislature is red. We have one Republican Senator and one very far left Democrat Senator. Our state voted for Trump and DumBama both elections. But.......all our populated areas (major cities) are blue: Cleveland, Akron, Youngstown, Dayton, Cincinnati, Toledo, Columbus are all blue.

The cost of living in blue states is ridiculous. You would be better off living in my area making $12.00 an hour than you would be living in NYC making $20.00 an hour. When you make more you will pay more in federal taxes. That's why the states to cry the loudest when Trump implemented his home loan write-of at one million dollars were people in the blue states. Here, we had no problem with it because you can live in a very nice home in a very nice neighborhood for around $350,000. If you spend any time watching HGTV, the cost of living is very obvious.

If as you seem to believe few republicans unitize welfare programs, then we would have seen congress slashing welfare programs during the 4 years of republican controlled government during the Bush administration and 2 years during the Trump administration.

Although there are no reliable statistics of welfare usage by republicans or democrats, areas of the country in which republicans dominate show strong usage of social welfare just as area where democrats dominate.
4 of 5 states most dependent on welfare are republican states.

• Louisiana (17,429 per 100k)
• Mississippi (14,874 per 100k)
• Alabama (14,522 per 100k)
• Oklahoma (14,464 per 100k)
• Illinois (14,211 per 100k)

37% of welfare recipients are white
24% of welfare recipients are black
12% of Hispanic
15.4% of social welfare usage is in rural areas where only 11.9% in urban areas.

54 million Americans are on some form of social welfare. Those number cross the pollical, racial, and geographic divides.

Spending takes place no matter who has leadership. If we are going to spend, let us spend money on things that better the country, not vote buying like the Democrats do.

In October 2020, a month before the election, when Trump demanded more stimulus spending than even the Democrats wanted, was that vote buying?

Trump says he now wants bigger stimulus than Democrats offering

What are you talking about? Trump refused to sign that bill because of the extra unemployment that led to our supply chain and labor shortage.

“I’m telling you something I don’t tell anybody else because maybe it helps or maybe it hurts negotiations,” Trump told Limbaugh. “I would like to see a bigger package.”


Vote buying.

Then why didn't he sign it?

That was earlier in the year. Then when he saw Biden leading in the polls, he did an about face and asked for MORE than what the Democrats wanted!

Textbook vote buying.

He refused to sign their pork bill because of the unnecessary spending. They had to wait until Dementia got comfortable in office for him to sign it. Any reliable link to your claim here because 2+2 are not equaling 4 for some reason here.

In time it will self rectify.

Liberal policies will eliminate food production and make energy unobtainable.

Millions will perish.

Earth will smile.

Conservatives who prepared and armed themselves will survive and flourish.

It's wonderful to watch Xiden's foibles bring that day so much closer so quickly.

End of world talk, really?

Xiden will try - to please his masters.

But, as with all else, he will fail.

There will be hunger pains along the way.
