Oh lordy. You do realize the depression of 2008 was under Republican control. Obama inherited a mess. The great depression occurred under Republican control.
You can be an emotional thinker or you can research. I recommend reading.
Bernie Sanders as president? Not my first choice, but I would vote for him over Trump. I don't think he will grift our tax payer dollars golfing at one of his resorts that needs a financial boost every weekend.
Just another tid bit for you to research. The economy does better under the Democrats. Fact. Read about it.
Bernie, POTUS? That will be quite interesting. When was the last time in US history has a sitting President died of old age while in office? If Bernie looks anything close to a promising win for 2020, Hillary will be all over him stink on chit to be his VP. This way she will automatically be POTUS (first woman at that) when he finally decides to give up the ghost.
Ahah....very good point. No one would want her as their VP though.....waiting for that banana peel.....
I would say you are pretty close.....90% might be low if you count total number of firearms vs actual owners. There might be a couple of Bernites that own a rusty old .38 special their GrandDad gave them, but that doesn't compare to the other side......
There is a thread right now about how the far left is attacking Stephen King, a well know liberal/lefty. His crime, was saing that art shouldn't be concerned about diversity.
He was roundly attacked by the left for that. Stephen King is nobody's conservative and they ate him up like it was feeding time at the pig trough.
I just don't see that same thing with the conservative/right leaning crowd. There are many cases where liberal/lefty's are getting attacked for not being "woke" enough.
I say this as someone that has consistently scored politically center, slight left leaning. In other words I have no dog really in this fight and this stuff is obvious as hell to me as well as to many many other average everyday centrist leaning Americans.
I think a major pushback is starting to come about, all of this stuff was and has been driven the slow creeping hyper-PC movement over the last several years.
Common sense has left the building....
Yes, there are lots of liberals who are too much. No question. They're easily offended -- all while being offensive.
But I honestly don't know how you can say that conservatives, especially here on CD, are any different. They're just as extreme, they're as prone to oversensitivity, and they're definitely as offensive. They're rude, they resort to name-calling and condescension as often (if not more often) as liberals do, and they will just as quickly go running to the mods when they read something they don't like.
