What’s up with liberals masquerading as moderates?

[strawberryapple]

If I ran for office I'd run as a conservative. Take it or leave it. I don't give a crap. So why did Biden & Spanberger run as moderates and then pull the old bait & switch? Is it because they knew they couldn't sell bat-shit crazy?

Don't get me wrong, I want them to keep doing it. But they really are screwing over their own party.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Because they know if they run their campaign as far leftists the chances of winning significantly decreases in most cases.

[strawberryapple]

You nailed that one! Spanberg's own mother wouldn't have voted for her is she new the truth.

[IamRight]

"Is it because they knew they couldn't sell bat-shit crazy?" Yes. This is why.

[strawberryapple]

That narrows their audience down to just woke crazies.

I've come to expect it out of Democrats... Fetterman or the likes of all the Dems that joined Trump are actually surprising to me because I'm conditioned to expect them to go full retard like Biden and Gaven have done... as well as others. It's like they get in and just fuck everything up that they can fuck with.

I"m a left libertarian in political tests... but that's my perspective, and that's why I just vote R no matter who right now. The current left is full of retards.

[strawberryapple]

Democrats should form a new democrat party and don't let any of the crazies in.

[Master_Debator]

They really should. Like feminism... it's been hijacked by the crazies. Their best bet is to split up from that and maybe hold some actual values. Like a real stance of their own instead of just being anti-Trump which invites pretty much any retard that just agrees with that opinion.

[Master_Debator]

Basically they made themselves marketable to someone that can't pass a basic test of any kind. "You hate Orange man, but got no reason behind it?" ... and then they find their club and new friends. The problem is... that's probably not the friends a normal human would want to have.

[strawberryapple]

I don't know why they haven't done it already.

[Master_Debator]

Because they're retarded and gay.

[strawberryapple]

Well, there is THAT. 🤣

[Maddie248]

Libs will say and do anything with no real plan

[strawberryapple]

They've proven that many times over.

[Bricealan]

@strawberryapple AND too politically obtuse to really know that.

[strawberryapple]

I guess so.

[genericname85]

cause people still want to feel like they fit in even if they're extremists.

[strawberryapple]

And they need votes and they can't get them from their real agenda.

[genericname85]

oh i thought we were talking about average joes. when it comes to politicians, everyone lies and betrays for votes. don't hate the players. hate the game.

[strawberryapple]

I guess they don’t realize that they’re cheating their own team.

[genericname85]

There's no teams in politics. Everyone is a raging narcissist that will do litterally what ever it takes so they get voted into office. If that means throwing your own team under the bus, they'll do it

[exitseven]

They cannot run on tbe crazy policies they support so they make up that they are moderate. Then if they get elected they raise taxes and give illegal aliens more welfare.

[SmokinAces2000]

What do you consider moderate and extreme

[strawberryapple]

Having to lie about your political positions is extreme.

[SmokinAces2000]

What political positions?

[strawberryapple]

Just stick to the general question. so far instead of answering you've asked me two questions.

[SmokinAces2000]

I’m asking for clarification because from your question and responses I’ve gathered that what you’re saying is bullshit

[strawberryapple]

You don’t need any clarification.
Would you consider yourself left, center or right?
Are you able to answer that question without any clarification? If you prefer, you can change it to liberal, conservative or moderate.

If you can answer that I will explain the question perfectly for you.

[SmokinAces2000]

It should be very simple for you to provide clarification if you are actually trying to make a real point

[strawberryapple]

Since you’re the only person who doesn’t know what left, right and center means, not gonna worry about your feelings. Cheers.
