How many here voted for Trump ...

[Independent thinker]

You do and you don't even know it. Of course you don't know. Today you have to convince yourself that $5 a gallon gas is a good thing.

Conservatives For America, a political organization linked to Republican Study Committee Chair August Pfluger (R-Texas), posted nine polls for GOP-held districts on its website, possibly to give to a super PAC without running afoul of campaign-finance limits on coordination.

These polls, conducted in mid-March by Ragnar Research Partners, are of districts that range from deep-red ones held by Reps. Tim Moore (R-N.C.) and Pat Harrigan (R-N.C.) to battlegrounds held by Reps. Zach Nunn (R-Iowa) and Juan Ciscomani (R-Ariz.).

Here’s what stood out to us from this trove of data.

Trump’s numbers. President Donald Trump is underwater in districts that he won in 2024. Obviously, Trump isn’t on the ballot this November. But if his poll numbers sink low enough, Trump could pull vulnerable Republicans down.

most, if not all, of these Democrats haven’t begun advertising to raise their name ID. It’s typical for the incumbent to lead at this point in the cycle. Democrats have room to grow.

Your trouble is you are beholden to the Borg menatliy and don't allow for individual thought, beholden to that party narrative. Therefore, you have zero understanding of how others can think outside the party line and have individual thought. That's totally foreign to you.

You have a point, Trump's Iran's golden goose, they found the biggest sap of a President in that buffoon.

You dorks just can't stand that he is winning.

And winning and winning.

Oh, I'll bet you stay up at night talking to your Joe Biden blow-up doll about how much it upsets you.

My only hope is we are in contact with the opposition and working with them for the eventual overthrow.

I would think the pretender Shah would come back to establish a caretaker government.

I think Trump and his people are actually talking to sane people in Iran but they don't have control over the IRGC. And, I do think they are trying to form a plan for the sane to get control of the country but that is easier said than done.

The world voted for no Iran nukes...

And Trump tore up that one. Which brought us here to this moment in time.

But the fact that it is going on is what pisses the left off.

They want this to be another Jan 6. Some miniscule mole hill they can turn into Mt. Everest.

It could be easily argued most of his policies are anti-american. Like his socialism. Foreign aid. Wars. Making our 250th anniversary all about him. 10 Trillion in debt. Good lord, I could go on and on and on and on.

Trump not only damaged the GOP Identity, he peed & crapped all over the Conservative Movement in American politics.

Trump not only damaged the GOP Identity, he peed & crapped all over the Conservative Movement in American politics.

Not to mention Christianity.

The fact that he's still so adored by some demonstrates they were never that strong in their conservative or Christian principles in the first place. Morality? Decency? Pffft, who cares.

The border was my #1 priority and I got what I voted for!

^^^ Damn straight! Plus F Iran those assholes have been killing Americans for decades. It's high time we bombed the shit out of those MF'ers!

 

[BluesLegend]

Let me just laugh in the face of Democrat assholes with their latest pathetic attempt to divide us. Poor Dems, defeated, humiliated, kicked in the nuts this is all the desperate fools have.

 

[Martin Eden Mercury]

Even Iran signed the non-proliferation treaty and yet they refuse to even make a deal for no nukes. They won't even talk about it.

Funny thing is, you don't know that. You can't possibly know.

 

[IDIOCRACY]

How stupid did you feel the last time you put gas in your tank? I look around and wonder how many of the red necks, white trash and blue collar guys around me voted for Trump. I want to say something to them but they all look so angry and confused.

Why project?

Cuz you're a coward.

Nobody has ever divided Americans as much as Donald Trump has. Even during the lead up to the American Civil War, Abraham Lincoln was seeking to unite, not divide. But Donald Trump lives and breathes on divisiveness, he thrives on chaos.

I voted for Trump because I believed he would destroy the terrorists in the Middle East. I'm right.

 

[Martin Eden Mercury]

I never heard anyone in my deep red AO say anything of the kind....You just made at shit up to try to start something.

Social Media, News Reports and more all have real people saying just what dblack has posted. Even FOX NEWS has interviewed people who said that.

I realize that much is kept from them, but even they have to know why they're paying more at the pump.

I've seen a few of them here trying to justify it as essentially a war tax to protect us. Cool spin there.

Like any cult, they either figure it out on their own, or they don't. No outside input has any influence.

Here's one

According to a 2023 Wall Street Journal op-ed and other reports, J.D. Vance supported Donald Trump partly because he believed Trump would avoid starting reckless foreign wars, specifically mentioning a desire to avoid being dragged into conflicts in the Middle East. Vance, a self-described "skeptic of foreign military interventions," noted in February 2026 that he believed Trump would not get the U.S. into a long, drawn-out war with Iran.

• Internal Doubt: Reports suggest Vance was initially skeptical of the war's merits and warned of its consequences, suggesting a conflict would not be in the interest of the U.S. and that it would be "massively expensive".
• Shifting Stance: While expressing skepticism, Vance also pivoted to support the administration's goal of keeping nuclear weapons out of Iran's hands once the conflict was underway.

• The Pentagon May Not Be Giving Trump the Full Picture of the War​

  Vice President Vance is worried that the U.S. is running low on weapons.
• n closed-door meetings, J. D. Vance has repeatedly questioned the Defense Department’s depiction of the war in Iran and whether the Pentagon has understated what appears to be the drastic depletion of U.S. missile stockpiles.
  
  Two senior administration officials told us that the vice president has queried the accuracy of the information the Pentagon has provided about the war. He has also expressed his concerns about the availability of certain missile systems in discussions with President Trump, several people familiar with the situation told us. The consequences of a dramatic drawdown in munitions reserves are potentially dire: U.S. forces would need to draw from these same stockpiles to defend Taiwan against China, South Korea against North Korea, and Europe against Russia.

Would somebody please kindly inform 1srelluc of this.

I voted for Trump because of the wide open border we got under Biden as far as Iran goes this war with them is concerning but Iran getting nukes is to. Pretty much everyone agrees Iran shouldn’t have nukes and that Iran having them would be bad for the Middle East and the world as a whole most pretty much agree the leadership of Iran wouldn’t honor any deal it signed or willingly give up it’s pursuit of nukes so I’m not sure what the other options were. This is a risky gamble but it doesn’t seem like there are any better options sometimes there are no good simple easy options.

We are here because Donald Trump tore up the deal that Iran agreed to. That deal had so many safeguards with inspectors and more stuff.

As with most things Trump touches, he creates a problem then demands credit for solving an issue, leaving out the knowledge that he created the problem to begin with.

 

[eagle1462010]

... because you thought he was opposed to our meddling in the Middle East?

Just curious.

I didnt want more War in the enemies terms.

But with Iran Ive wanted their sorry asses hit since Carter.

I was PLEASENTLY SHOCKED WHEN TRUMP PULLED THE TRIGGER

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

This is where you pretend that you're all for the war in Iran! Go team!

This is where you pretend your thread isn’t a failure.

I waited in Lines during Peanut Head.

Why are you worried. Arent you driving a Golf Cart?
