This thread has been pretty hard on Democrats, so I wish the Op had titled it 3 things "Liberals" hate instead.

I still contend that there are a large % of Dem/Indy voters who are not uber-left progressive liberals, but are patriotic Americans that are quite similar to Republicans. Many times they vote Dem due to 1 or 2 issues (abortions or union support for example), but side w Pubs on most of the rest....like the economy and national defense.

I see the chasm being between Uber-Left Libs and moderate Dems/Indy's as being wider, than between moderate Dems/indy's and Republicans.

I think the moderate Dems & independents will vote mostly with Pubs in the next 2 national elections which, would confirm my thoughts.

I really think some of the uber left agenda like; BLM, late-term abortions, limiting school choice, teaching CRT, siding w/ teachers unions over parents/students are all seen as repulsive by many Dem/Indy voters. They dont like the weaponization of the federal gov't agencies either.

We need to make it a lot more difficult for the bad guys to get in. That $40 billion that Biden sent to Ukraine to cover up his corruption could have bought a lot of school security.

i have grown very tired of constant political bickering, there have always been differences between people


and in this country we have always made compromises between the party's to compromise, which may many time not always offer our preferred opinions that is democracy


i dont hate anyone, years ago i found myself jealous of an individual and so i wondered if i could swap lives, would i, absolutely not my own life warts and all is preferable

Democrats HATE:

1. Voter ID because it makes it harder for them to cheat in elections

2. Free speech because it makes it harder for them to lie

3. The Second Amendment because it makes it harder to steal your liberty.
"Three things the democrats hate"

1. Trump

PSST! Minorities had the LOWEST UNemployment numbers under Trump then ANY previous president.

What does protecting kids from leftist indoctrination and subversion have to do with free speech? Well, in a way it does have something to do with it because subversion is denying free speech. But besides that, this thread is about Democrats, not Conservatives.
Wow...never expected you to be wearing an orange Kool Ade smile but there ya are.
Care to explain your distain?

Did I say anything that isn't true?

Are you kidding?! I know plenty of Dems who do not have an issue with any of the above. This is such crap. Why does the right continuously make this stuff up? Was this stuff beat into your head as a child and you think it's correct?

I first handed have witnessed the following:

1. Working in a medical setting, I constantly see 'righters" argue about showing proof of ID with their
insurance card. We ask for this because we do not want to have someone using someone elses insurance
becuase it has happened in the past. Fraud.

2. Everytime Trump opened his mouth, out came a lie and then his followers joined in.

3. Really? I know plenty of Dems who own guns and grew up with them.

You folks have to just stop the crap and find something more productive to chat about.
