I'm your opinion, based on modern times, what is the technical differences between a republican and a leftist? Is it based on policy or tribalism?

LOL!! Your leftist programming trumps your eyes!
You show me red states where there are poorer people than the homeless I showed you in NY, HI, and CA.
I don't think the poorest people in the US are confined to red states.
These videos of the homeless are from BLUE states.


For most people who are homeless it's only a temporary situation. Working a crap job for crap benefits can consume a lifetime if that's all you can get. That's why ambitious people have to leave the countryside and go to the city to have anything better.

So how does "open borders" and a few million more unemployed help raise anyone's standard of living?

Not sure what any of that has to do with what we were talking about. Letting immigrant workers in has long been a conservative strategy to keep wages low. Turns out agricultural jobs were especially vulnerable.

1. We're discussing the standard of living of low income households in red & blue states.
2. IMHO the homeless in democrat run states are "poorer" than the "working poor" in red states.
3. Xiden has "open borders" (not conservatives) letting in a few million unemployed looking for low wage work. That by definition hurts the working poor all over the US. That is a democrat policy hurting the poor.
4. Agricultural jobs are still better than being homeless.
Thanks for playing.
 
Many wealthy are Republicans because of the lucrative tax breaks that trump gave them. Money talks.

trump also crippled the IRS so that the IRS can't collect taxes from rich people.

That's one group.

Then you have the audience of the former Rush Limbaugh.

These were lonely people who found a friend in the former Rush Limbaugh on AM radio.

Most of the audience were Democrats because they didn't have a lot of money, but over time the former Rush Limbaugh groomed them into Republicans. Poor Republicans.

trump has copied the former Rush Limbaugh's strategy and has taken over the audience.
Oh good grief--- used to--the republicans were known as the party fiscal responsibility and religious fruitcupness........they obviously left the fiscal responsibility and trade in the DC swamp kickback system now. They are only slightly better than our communist murdering dems.
 
Indeed they should.

Politically, that's not easy to acknowledge. Most people will assume you're a racist if you do, and most people don't want to be labeled a racist (miscreants on this site notwithstanding). But the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was bad law, and a mistake. It injected the nonsensical premise that "everyone should be treated equally" as into our legal status quo. As such, there's been a continuous stream of minorities, and other groups, asking government to force others to cater to their desires. It's become a part of our political landscape, something everyone assumes is a good thing, without really thinking it through. Even self-styled "radical libertarians" fall for it.

I don't disagree - freedom to trade with whomever we please for whatever reason we like is the bedrock of all freedom.

But wait, there's more! He's trying to prohibit business from requiring their customers from being vaccinated.

So you LIED when you claimed there was a law that prohibited businesses from requiring customers from being vaccinated. :thup:

Then you loop back to "well he WANTS to" in your attack on an enemy of the Reich.

No, Gov. DeSantis wants people to be free to make their own choices. Even Marxian Chomskyites should grasp that concept.

He's also pushing for laws that will force social media companies to host Trumpster nonsense. He's all about bullying businesses. He either has no respect for private property and individual rights, or - like many of you, he just doesn't get it.

Freedom of speech is such a bother - I can see where statists like you want to crush it.

Bull fucking shit, Nazi. Homelessness is generational in places like Los Angeles.


We all know that democrats plan to put the masses in slave huts and will claim you solve "homelessness" Whether you have a cot in a dorm or an apartment will depend on your "social score" in the party. 99% of the population will get a cot and a daily bowl of millet porridge to eat.
 
Before 1998 the difference was clear.

The republicans were mostly conservatives who supported

Fiscal conservatism
Patriotism to America
Small accountable government
Right to privacy
Balanced budgets


Since Fox News and W, the GOP mutated into just the opposite (replace America with Israel)
How can you believe any of that?

Reagan grew the size and cost of the government to unprecedented levels
Every single republican administration since Coolidge has increased the debt

so 3 out of the 5 things you listed are completely false. And the right to privacy thing is questionable

And you hence claim Clinton, not Gingrich and the GOP congress, produced a budget surplus....

Even though Clinton shut the government down demanding more spending..

And, of course, Reagan submitted budgets to congress with spending cuts. The congress returned budgets, which reagan had no choice but to sign, that not only did not cut any spending, but increased spending across the board.


Who was in charge of congress....

Dem speaker Jim wright, who went to prison.

Ku klux klan enchanted cyclops Dem Senate leader

Robert KKKing of Pork Byrd

Traitor Joe' bestest buddy......
 
Clearly most people tend to favor one party or the other. I just wanted to point out that the democrats are not leftist except in relative terms. The DNC is a center-right party. They just aren't as far right as the GOP.
The DNC is not center right.
 
Misnomer.

You are either a religious zealot, vulture capitalist, bigot, fascist asshole

Or

You are not a religious zealot, vulture capitalist, bigot, fascist asshole.
Left wing loon politics is the democrats religion.

I'm not claiming anything about anyone.

EVERY single administration be it republican or democrat since Coolidge has increased the size of government and the debt.

That you can believe that republicans are all about no debt , small government and balanced budgets is ludicrous.

The fact is both of the old corrupt parties are responsible for fucking up this country so you need to learn that these same 2 parties cannot unfuck it.

Congress decides what to spend and what not to spend, not the president.

Before 1998, the GOP fought against more spending.

Then why contradict yourself?

Uh, nope. It's all true. Here - not sure how you missed it:

"Additionally, the legislation codifies the prohibition of COVID-19 vaccine passports. Governor DeSantis enacted this prohibition through an executive order last month, blocking any business or government entity from requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination."

Why keep pretending?
Freedom of speech is such a bother - I can see where statists like you want to crush it.
It doesn't sound like you understand freedom of speech. It doesn't mean others have to host your speech.

So are you telling me that Reagan vetoed every spending bill that wasn't paid for and that the Congress overrode all those vetoes?

There is something called a budget.

The president submits one to congress each year.

The congress can either pass it or change it or ignore it and pass their own, like Gingrich and wright did.

Once the congress passes the budget, the president really cannot do much. Shut the government down... HW and Clinton tried that.....

2+2=4

Do the majority of people vote based on party or character? What specific policies turned you on to one, and what policies turned you off from another?

It is pure tribalism at this point.

Character is worthless if the person you're voting for won't be effective in office. We should stop acting like this is some sort of popularity contest and actually judge a candidate for his/her potential to be effective whilst carrying out elected duties.

Todays ‘Republicans’ are voting to preserve and protect American virtues…our sovereignty, our institutions, our history, traditions, principle and value systems, and the the American Way whereas Democrats are voting to shred it all at its core.
Difference is the Republican base is totally missinformed and can't change the channel from the hate freedom and communism party propaganda machine. Healthcare living wage daycare help great infrastructure and vacations is not evil DUH. The GOP giveaway to the rich and brainwash for the ignoramus base the last 30 years is what is ruining this country with inequality and crap upward mobility. We need to tax the rich so we can invest in America and Americans again...

You don't seem to realize the president has to sign every budget into law.

The president who signs the spending bill owns it.

So Clinton "owns" gingrich's budget even as he shut the government down to oppose it and demand more spending....


You = IQ under 5


Have left wing talking points, will parrot....
