The Democrat Party of the 1990s

[Carl in Michigan]

Yeah, tell me again it is the Republicans who changed. The problem is, Democrats are judging others based on their newly "evolving" beliefs/morality. I'm still amazed they can't see how they've fallen

The Democratic Party went off the rails when Obama won. That's when they decided that they had demographics permanently on their side, and chose to aggressively weaponize PC/Identity Politics in myriad ways. They lost their focus.

That also managed to piss off enough people to usher Trump in. Now, to absolutely no surprise, Trump and the GQP are doing everything they can to piss enough people off to vote the Dems back in. Well, what an amazing coincidence.

Back and forth, back and forth. Hardcore ideology makes people do stupid things. The parties just don't learn.

The Republican Party before Fox Faux News and W was fiscally conservative and patriotic to America. Since 1998, it has been 180 degrees the opposite direction, it does nothing but bankrupt America and sell out our troops to serve Israel.


The Democrat Party that nominated Bill Clinton in 1992 was different than today, it wasn't nearly as left wing and anti America.


In the 1990s the Dems never went under 40% and the GOP was around 35%, and hence no room for a robust third party.

That's not the case now. Both Dems and GOP are under 30%.


We need a new party that is fiscally conservative and patriotic to America, because neither of the 2 parties are even close there.
