I’m not a big fan of Trump either, but literally essentially all the Democrats now embrace what would’ve been considered far left social policies not that many years ago. These people are really extreme. That is not an alternative.

It’s not even a political issue anymore. It’s about a thick layer of moral indecency that I could never in good conscience wade through to even get to the debate table with them.
I am absolutely AGHAST at who the right —even the moderate right (and some “moderate” Democrats)— have shown themselves to be, just as humans. I truly view them as animals now, and I don’t relish having to say that, nor do I throw it around lightly. I am HORRIFIED by these people’s values and worldview. HORRIFIED.
I can’t put it simpler than that.
Antifa Aktion during Germany they were the brown shirts. Antifa now are the Nazi brown shirts attacking people who support America, etc... Don't believe the democrats or the news when they say Americans are Nazis if they don't support democrat talking points, or their multiple NGO organizations.
Most people assume the news isn't leading them, which sadly they are. Obama made it legal for the news to push propaganda before he left office. Tried telling people in person, but they got angry and almost wanted to assault me because any talk against Barack to them seems like an attack on something holy.
The internet hasn't shut down because the president is currently getting attacked and living rent free in everyone's heads for over ten years.
How would the internet react and handle itself once juicy scandal, gossip, salacious or disturbing pictures of Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama would get released? I. E wearing Muslim attire, holding an AK-47 against troops and the American flag?
Im pretty sure the Internet would receive a knockout punch.
Get your popcorn ready!
In a similar spot. The two parties shift around over time and the left slid far left, which I think is the nature of how they think. I don't see changing their minds, both parties are coagulated and controlled by the media feeds and messaging. You've seen a few dems leave to go right whom are really middle. There's some right people I think that would slide middle because of Trumps policies which are a bitter pill to many.
I think the answer is they cannot or they have to despise Trump or the right so much they press the left button or the middle one.
God help us all. Enjoy the lovely day!:) Go press your buttons and hope for the best, that it doesn't launch a bunch of nukes or worse.
It basically comes down to how deplorable you think the Republican party has become.
When i was young i was Republican. Slowly the Republican party left me. I didn't leave them. Over the years. I've went from Republican to a libertarian to a constitutionalist. I still believe in small gov't i've always believed in small gov't. But just because i believe in small gov't does not mean i want a system that only works for a select few. And more and more that is what the republican party has been becoming. I've said i'll never vote denocrat. But this might be the election that swings it for me. What happens in my home state is going to play a big part in it for me.
You know... so many of us that are not such big fans of Trump just forced to be here because of their outrage against him.
What makes you think they're reasonable? Before 2016 they were mostly arguing that the earth is flat, that space is fake, and then went on to say trans women are real women. We're dealing with the people we should've put in crazy houses decades ago. Now they're onto some race war shit just trying to wake up the great white dragon like it's going to work out in their favor as if we haven't destroyed everything we've ever really gone to war with.
This isn't going to end well... and it's because of them.
They're going to make the new Hitler come back, it's why they can't stop name dropping him, they love him.
What a pack of lies.
It’s about following candidates versus the party. Some candidates are solid. It’s just as silly to rule a candidate out because of their party as it is to automatically vote for them because of their party.
Unfortunately this requires a fair amount of research on your part because the mainstream media is garbage now.
The choice is between democracy and continuing to be robbed blind, permanently surveilled, and no more real elections. Between honesty and lies. Between co-equal branches of government and dictatorial rule. Between the constitution and authoritarian rule.
Patriotism means voting Democratic, this time and possibly the next, even if you hate universal health care, a social safety net, an independent department of justice, and treating people with decency.
It comes down to one issue only. Are you for American citizens or are you for illegal aliens at taxpayer expense. Don’t ever forget the democrats staying seated at Trumps SOTU Address when he said he felt government’s responsibility was to protect citizens not illegal aliens
What is "far-left" to you? And can you provide links Democratic candidates or office holders advocating "far-left" policies, either when speaking or in campaign literature? If all the Democrats are doing it, there should be many examples.
Beats me what is so scart is how many people actually are in favor of their anti American policies. They are shitting where they live.
Exactly what "anti American policies"?
@goaded Higher taxes, open border, defund police, close the prisons, stop oil drilling, defund ICE, hire 80,000 IRS agents, men playing in women's sports, DEI for everyone, medicare for all, The whole thing is sacry as hell and after the 4 year debacle we just had two years ago we know that the democrats are crazy enough to do it id they could.
You know the feds just bought an empty private prison which was for sale a year or two ago for $75 million?
They paid over $400 million for it this year.
The previous owners donated to Trump.
Your "low taxes" have blown up the deficit to $40 trillion, and most of the benefits go to people much richer than you.
What have you got against the government chasing down rich people who don't pay their taxes? The IRS agents were targeted at people "earning" $400,000 a year or more!
Medicare for all is a good thing. People not going bankrupt for getting ill is a good thing. People living longer is a good thing!
The border wasn't "open".
@goaded the IRS goes after the middle class because they can scare the shit out of thrm. They find it easier to collect 10gs apiece from 10 people than get 100Gs from a rich guy with a lawyer
Over $400,000 a year is not "middle class".
@goaded I never said it was. It is common knowledge that the IRS goes after middle class people because they never fight back, they just write a check and hope that they stay out of jail. It is the rich with accountants and lawyers that they do not like.
As a European observer, I am curious, what „far-left“ policies are that? Establishing a public healthcare system? The first one was invented by Otto von Bismarck, who was a Prussian conservative and monarchist.
You need to shut up. Americans will not pay those kinds of taxes period so your universal healthcare won’t work here
Why would you assume that we pay insane amount of taxes? In comparison, our healthcare costs per person are half of what you pay (while having a longer life expectancy). Regulation is the key. Competition doesn't work in an oligopoly.
We have the best healthcare system in the world. Why do you think people come here from other parts of the world for treatment
Your healthcare system is largely a scam and a grift. You have very good hospitals, pharmaceutical companies and doctors, which attracts rich patients. But so do we and we also constantly have rich Russians, Arabs or Asians here for treatment. The big picture is important. The idea that I would have to pay 4000$ for an ambulance gives me the chills.
We don’t.
It's really depressing seeing how partisans politics has become.
Democrats don't realize their policies are unpopular and destruction. The DSA has created a platform that is eerily similar to what was practiced throughout much of the world decades ago and led to many societal collapses.
You really don't know what left is. The Dems aren't left, they're just not authoritarian douche bags like the Repugs, and they let the animals run free inside the park. The Republicrums want everyone to stay in their cages, except the zookeepers of course.
LOL, grow up, you dimwit.
Left leaners tend to be more factual and honest then right leaners like Republicans.
Liking or disliking Trump should have no bearing on this midterm election. The best thing an unsure voter should do, is just vote a straight Republican ticket across the ballot
If you want more waste of taxpayer funds like buying a private prison for six times the price it was offered at two years ago.
How can a reasonable voter support Republican far right policies? There isn't a party right now for independent thinkers or moderates.
Yes there is, it's the Democratic party. The alternative is more of the fraud and grifting, breaking of long-standing alliances, more wars of choice, and all the wealth going to the top 1%.
Simple solution
Probably the same way that some otherwise reasonable people can vote for far-right Nazis
You can try voting independent but that's probably not a good idea for you
You can’t be reasonable and vote democrat.
