I’m certainly not buying it!
Rightwing Republicans don’t get elected in the nation’s cities, often hate city life and despise city people, yet they are certain that the main problem in our cities is BLM and Democratic politicians!
We don't get elected in major cities, because of your side's successful wace baiting.
We don't despise people that live in cities. Try to be less divisive.
And yes, when dem mayors order the police to stand down so blm/antifa mobs can terrorize their streets, we think that the dem politicians and the rioters are the problem.
When they see closed or boarded up stores in their small towns or local suburban malls, they don’t think anymore of Walmart and Amazon, internet and international economic transformations, or even the Covid economIc fallout — they see in their mind’s eye thieving traitorous Democrats and BLM looters.
No one is confusing long term decline of brick and mortar retail with stores shut down by riot damage or fear. You just made that up.
Radical Republicans and Trump supporters are opposed to helping cities and states and even rural counties that have budgetary problems now dramatically exacerbated by Covid-19,
Well, i certainly don't want to pick up the tab for bad ideas I don't support. Like ordering the cops to stand down and letting people riot and burn shit.
but they support more money for a strong armed forces overseas and in outer space,
I want to withdraw from NATO and various cold war alliances, and pulls our troops out of the shit hole ME and reduce military spending.
I do support space exploration, but realize it is a lost cause.
and bailouts and unlimited credit for bankrupt crony capitalists and Wall Street speculators. For some of them the economy is good just so long as their stock portfolios are up.
I'm more concerned about small businessmen, than big corps. My stocks I'm fine seeing taking a short term hit. I have some time yet.
“Put down those BLM rioters!”
“Hang those Democratic traitors!”
“Jail Antifa!“
Sedition, treason, open insurrection, murder, all are worthy of capital punishment or long jail terms. At least in a normal healthy society.
It is all a sad picture of an increasingly mad divided society in decline. Not a single Republican (and very few Democrats) have a program to fundamentally restructure the economy. Republicans just want to blame radicals, atheists, “baby killers,” Communists, Chicoms. The more sane and ordinary Republicans long to return to the “good old days” — to MAGA — but the 1950s will never return.
But if we are not very careful 1930s-like Depression-level unemployment and World War may well return.
Globalization, was a policy choice. One that did not work out as intended. We can change policy.
Your ridicule of the idea, is a logical fallacy. Support your claims, or admit you cannot.
