Neither, since the common man doesn’t have enough money to donate to their campaigns.

The Democrats will at least throw a bone to the working classes once in awhile. The Republicans, on the other hand, would get rid of every New Deal program if they could. The Republicans want to turn back the clock to the 1890s.

Where do you think that bone came from? Oh wait, from the CHICKEN they took out of YOUR OWN fridge. They ate YOUR chicken are giving you back the bones. Whoopie-doo.

As for most new deal programs - refer to above.^ Stealing your money so they could take a massive cut, **** away most of it, then "give" some of the crumbs back to you. How bout you NOT steal from me in the first place if you want to help? Oh wait, we're talking about democrats, being productive is not allowed.

Neither?

Both?

Or?

Neither. Republicans always favor the wealthy and still believe in trickle down economics.What a joke. Democrats cared about sixty years ago. Now they are the party of unbridled corruption, lies, tyranny and crimes against humanity. This isn't even a choice. Can't we all just admit both totally suck in different ways and neither party cares a fig about anything but their own power.

Neither. And if you can’t see that you are as blind as a bat. No offense to anyone. But come on. This is why I’ve been screaming at the top of my lungs that Americans need to ban together at this time and clean the swamp. I know that’s a Trump phrase and I was not big on Trump, but that is one thing the man did expose that the swamp is real and it’s alive and it runs deep.

Through all of these crisis and changes we’ve struck a nerve and it’s become evident to us that these people will use every power at their disposal to maintain that power. And that is a scary proposition. They will come after innocent Americans, label Americans things they are not like terrorists, even have people whacked or disappear just like the Chinese to maintain that power. We’ve allowed a true criminal Netwerk to run our country. We probably can’t even vote anymore to get rid of them. It’s deeply entrenched and we have only ourselves to blame for allowing it to be this way…

NEITHER, they’re both in bed with powerful lobbyists and are beholden to high contributing donors with special interests, despite the rhetoric on either side.

YES x 1000! I'm so glad some are catching on. Biggest problem we are facing in this nation? Blind trust.
Yup, that's it! Just because my favorite and trusted Democratic or Republican politician espouses something doesn't mean it's truthful.


Question: Now can you tell if a politician is lying? Answer: When their lips are moving.


Newsflash folks and listen VERY VERY carefully. These "politicians" don't work for us. They work for Big Money.


Why we all can't see this just befuddles me.


America suffers from a very low political IQ.

Those are Rinos. Trump supporters are supporting the real conservatives. The Freedom Caucus is who we support , not the Rinos.

If you're very wealthy it doesn't matter much who is in power. If you have need or want government support perhaps you lean Dem.

I own rental property and my assets/income put me in the upper middle class range or perhaps even "rich"

But I'm not wealthy enough that paying 30k a year more in additional taxes, investment fees or whatever wouldn't matter.

So I vote Rep.

Democrats and their donors are wealthy. You think they will vote against their own interests and like to give money away because they love poor people?


When were the Democrats a party for the people above all? 1962?

Neither. They care only about corporations and their donations.
