A Republic is a threat to a democracy and it's a good thing.

Do you believe that the GOP is really a threat to democracy?
Yeah, that happens all the fuckin time. The wife and I went out yard sale shopping last weekend and drove by a half a dozen smouldering crosses on Enfield Dr.Burning on cross on someone else's property in front of their house is a celebration? Bless your heart!
Well, of course you're so full of shit you'd melt if you took a stool softener, but bed wetting malignant cancers like you are actually engaged in violent acts, vandalism, sabotage and treason on a regular basis. Then you piss and moan when someone discusses a fantasy of tossing you from a helicopter, in a legally sanctioned action through a court verdict, after a proper trial.Every day on this board, there is either an outright threat or veiled threat of violence in the name of non-existent voter fraud. So yup.
Mac1958 believes if we didnt have free speech libs could rule peacefully and without turmoilMy guess falls in line with what I'm perceiving across the board, with pretty much everything they do in their condition:
I believe that the street-level Trumpsters truly believe that they're trying to save democracy from evil. No, that doesn't really make sense, but that doesn't matter. So anything that they need to do or say is within that context.
They're not the problem. Trump himself is not the problem. The problem is the "media" types and craven politicians who are enabling/advancing this madness for their own personal professional gain. They could put the brakes on all of this tomorrow. They could just say NO MORE. This could be DEAD in a WEEK.
The people you see here? I think most of them (admittedly, some of them just want to see the world burn) are being perfectly honest and sincere, within their ideological/informational universe. They really do think they're saving America from evil, and that their leader -- this impudent, hypersensitive, juvenile, buffoonish, metrosexual New York City con man -- has been sent to them by God to help them achieve that goal.
I don't know how to oppose that.
I would agree to an extent. I'd say the D's are deliberately working to destroy the country, while the R's are token opposition getting rich through just as corrupt means and channels. I will assert that the R party is the best vessel available to fix things. A 3rd party would fractionalize the opposition to global collectivism.I responded "yes" (they are a threat). I say likewise about Democrats. I'm not a fan of our two-party system.
Yeah, I'm not in favor of a third party, nor any party mindset. My view is we need candidates whose loyalty is to America and not a political party. Thus, I favor non-partisan elections in which there are no D's, R's nor any other.A 3rd party would fractionalize the opposition to global collectivism
So you're voting for Trump...cool!Yeah, I'm not in favor of a third party, nor any party mindset. My view is we need candidates whose loyalty is to America and not a political party. Thus, I favor non-partisan elections in which there are no D's, R's nor any other.
As far as the recent election goes, I'm looking forward to a bit fiscal responsibility over these next 2 years. That's something we only get with (D) in the White House and (R) in control of the Senate or especially the House.
That's the truth. Fiscal responsibility is treated like gospel during campaigns, and a punch line afterwards. I actually expected Trump to do some serious budget hacking, instead we may as well have given the checkbook to Bernie.Yeah, I'm not in favor of a third party, nor any party mindset.

The purse strings belong to the House, not the President and the House has the Final say.That's the truth. Fiscal responsibility is treated like gospel during campaigns, and a punch line afterwards.

So you're voting for Trump...cool!
Thus far the weakest, most sensitive, politically correct post of 2024!No way. It was from episodes of The Apprentice that turned me off from Trump and allowed me to see what he was all about. Hillary vs Trump, that one had me voting a write-in candidate as way of formally casting a none-of-the-above.
Unfortunately, from what I read here there is a lot of rooting for the Republicans to carry on the pitiful behavior that Democrats showed during Trump's administration. Oh yes, political parties. It's monkey see, monkey do.
