I'll dumb it down to the fringe on the left is unbelievably annoying but ignorable. They have little influence, I wish they had none but...democracy. politicians cave to nonsense for votes. The fringe has become the right. Republicans who don't cave to election fraud nonsense are called rinos and often lose elections because of that. I rarely hear normal discourse from conservatives. It's a spatter of inane conspiracy theories. Explain to me how you think that's incorrect if you would. I totally agree that both parties need to elect better people. That may be the only way out. I'm glad that a lot of the most divisive are old as shiite. I don’t know where to begin if you do t see the outsized influence of the leftist agenda by the loud and crazy minority. We just are not speaking the same language. Edited April 5, 2023 by HamSandwhich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarely is policy even discussed by the right. Most of what I see is Hunter Biden plus what is a male. So consumed by admittedly stupid shiite that nothing meaningful is even discussed. I mentioned candidates losing elections if they don't claim Biden/dems stole the election. That's insane. They have to ride a conspiracy with ZERO proof to even be considered in many places? Come on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of things they are running on and are actively being pushed against by the leftist agenda, energy at home, the fight against censorship (it’s a real thing though you want to make it seem like a boogey man), making sure that parents have rights in the classroom and appropriate things are being taught schools for appropriate ages, having a police presence and honoring police rather than demonizing all of them because of a few bad apples, I can go on and on. What the heck are you talking about? I hear this all the time from leftist idiots, as though republicans have nothing they stand for. You’re just lazy. Those are just a few off the top of my head. Religious freedom, another, very important, probably just doesn’t jive with what you like so you say it’s nothing. What I like most of all is a gridlocked government that gets smaller, beautiful!

You mean freedom for non Christians? Cuz Christians have all the freedom they can handle. pls give an example of Christians freedom being taken. Now MTG believes the entire gov't should be Christian. When Lesley Stahl asked her how this fit with the constitution she said "our founding father's were all Christian" or something to that effect. "Christian nationalists" carry great sway with the R's these days. MTG was pivotal in putting Kevin McCarthy in the position he is woefully inadequate for.

The law recently passed where they felt the need to add in interracial marriage made it so anyone trying to practice their religion outside of religious institutions, say in their own place of business, can be sued for discrimination. That is not religious freedom, religious people don’t only practice their religion in their house of worship. Religion is under fire and needs to be protected in an ever more secular country, but you knew that. Your bias is showing with the Mike McCarthy comment, he’s been doing just fine. Sorry your butts so chapped about him. Edited April 5, 2023 by HamSandwhich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1 Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Party platforms are developed ahead of presidential elections. In 2020, the Republican party chose not to develop an official platform.

Platforms are usually big wordy documents describing a longer term vision for the future. When they release their budget we will see what their priorities are. Hopefully the House and the Pres can reach compromise without crashing the economy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stabbing-death-tech-executive-unleashes-170845014.html Bob Lee, the 43-year-old founder of Cash App and a former executive at Square (now Block), was stabbed to death early Tuesday morning in downtown San Francisco. Officers responded at 2:35 a.m. to a call reporting the stabbing and found Lee, who was visiting the city after having recently moved to Miami, according to NBC Bay Area. He was declared dead shortly after he was taken to the hospital, per a statement from San Francisco police. No arrests have been made, and police haven’t released any details about a potential suspect. After Lee’s death was reported, an outpouring of grief and remembrances for the tech executive, who also was the chief product officer at crypto startup MobileCoin, flooded social media. And along with the grief came a flood of anger over the state of San Francisco, which tech leaders have previously called the “worst run city in the United States.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laugh all you want Redtail, but when Bernie Sanders thinks he has gotten most of what he wants from you, you're a socialist leftist https://thehill.com/homenews/sunday-talk-shows/3865355-sanders-biden-a-more-progressive-president-than-he-was-as-senator/. When you start adding in ESG into pension/401k plan, you're not working for what's best for Americans interest, you're working for what's best for the interest of your far left agenda. It's all there, clear as day. Carbon emissions, he wants to do away with them, his adversarial approach to all fossil fuels, all from the far left. He's captured. The only thing he's done recently that does not wreak of his far left flank is the push back on the DC policing act, he can see he's losing the policing battle and dems are starting to turn their messaging on that, finally. When I say more centrists need to step up, I mean in the vein of Manchin and Sinema, more of that. We didn't need all that spending last year, it was just the COVID excuse to install their modern monetary theory to blow out the budget, and as we predicted, inflation went WAY up and it's here to stay. We're in a tailspin precisely because of this administration, the banks fail if we go too high on the interest rates and the inflation goes ever higher if we dont raise them, so what do you do? Pefect example as to why a central government (Central Bank) making all the monetary decisions (or any central top down government entity) is never the answer, it always blows up at some point because one person cannot predict the entire economy. Here we are, a bunch of shills like yourself covering for our inept administration and your lefty cronies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERYONE knew very well and mobilized fools based on fear against their neighbors. oldest trick still works. just a start. reversing any of this would be a decent policy. all things that greatly effect your and my life. nothing culture war or fringe going on. if you think this country is better then it was before this administration started. your either rich or blind. seriously give me somthing this administration has done to make your life better beside trillion dollar bills that they say will do great things for me in 20 years when everyone has forgotten how our debt tripled in a few years lol. id love a bit on encouragement as i check to make sure my bank still hasn't collapsed. is this all a figment of my imagination? my cult has warped my mind and none of it is real? thats the way leftists keep insinuating reality is. 8 hours ago, L Ron Burgundy said: I mentioned candidates losing elections if they don't claim Biden/dems stole the election. That's insane. They have to ride a conspiracy with ZERO proof to even be considered in many places? Come on. you don't see the true difference between rep and dems followers. one has a major distrust of gov and one fully supports it. the reason there was/is so much election mistrust was covid had a bunch of states change voting laws and suddenly people had to wait weeks to get a clear picture or listen to how ballots could be removed from signatures and not double checked on and on with strange NEW policies..for our saftey of coarse. that dems never reversed. that's not normal and just because a law was changed last minute making it legal does not mean there couldn't be manipulation of it or if deeply looked at as a loophole for fraud. im not saying that is true. biden getting the most votes in history is a pretty good signal somthing was off here. biden, who hid in his basment and did not campaign much? if you say so. i honestly dont know enough about the sheer amount of changes to be convinced but it certainly smells funky. but liberals certainly had no issue jumping on the jim crow 2.0 hysteria when Republicans made changes. most moderate. BUT I.D. NOOOO!!!! they are stealing elections!!! so any argument on absurdity of reaction is pretty tone deaf.
