All that proves is the stupid, clueless people outnumber the reasonable, logical ones.



Given how long Ive worked in tech, there is no shortage of stupid in the world, Ive seen it for multiple decades.

So will it be the same as Rep. Rick Scott's 12 point plan to rescue America?

Meanwhile, the democrat agenda:

Cancel and fact check all conservative thought in institutions.
Promote gender re-assignment surgeries in public schools, and identifying as whatever animal one chooses.
Eliminate cash bail for all crimes, and give soft or no sentences for crimes depending on the race of the perpetrator.
Extend rental moratoriums to be permanent and continue to allow unrestricted immigration, giving "free" health care for illegals and refugees, meanwhile asking for federal help when the number of illegals gets too big for city majors to handle.
More massive spending bills to tackle "climate change" among whatever pet projects the corrupt porkies that run things can find to embezzle money.
Ban new pipeline construction, and discourage cattle farming and continue to hamper the free market because hey, carbon emissions!
Attempt to ban AR-15's, high capacity magazines, and whatever new firearm is subject to the latest shooting, meanwhile judges in blue areas let felons in possession of firearms go with no jail sentence.
Hire 200,000 more Federal Agents to run various agencies like the ATF, FBI, etc. to further micromanage people's lives in addiction to the hires for the IRS.

I'm sure I missed a few things. You can't have a socialist utopia when nobody can afford anything from ridiculous and often contradictory policy choices. What you call freedom of choice and censorship other people call common sense... like identifying a person by their species "homo sapiens" or the gender they were born with... male parts or female parts.. you know, basic science and biology, objective facts based on science and not fantasy fairy tales based on feewings. More objective fact: the covid pandemic response did far more damage than the lockdowns, masking, and other measures ever helped. The treatment was worse than the illness. Case closed. More policy choice based on feelings that is harmful and destructive when looking out long term.

Democrats seem to be wanting to strengthen Federal power while decreasing state power from their actions. I think the globalists know that is necessary to institute their authoritarian governments.

The will not censor schools and libraries any more than the leftists have done.

Mandating vehicles to get 10 mpg or LESS?

Get rid of freedom of the press? NO WAY. Take measures to ensure the TRUTH of the press, MAYBE.
Good luck on truth of the press.

Playing to one side or another is what pays the best. "Trump/Biden is an evil baddie" pays well in clicks.

I favor our traditional Republican Party policies, but the only policy it has now is blind obedience to a would-be authoritarian. McCarthy had it right immediately after January 6th when he said he would ask Trump to resign.
"If"

For over 5 years now, all we have heard form the anti Trumpers is "if"!

Reminds me of the "boy who cried wolf"!

Interesting. So McCarthy openly admits his party’s intent to gerrymander electoral districts to give Republicans an unfair advantage in future elections? Well, I guess that’s the only way they can win consistently.

And I don't recall you EVER complain when the dems have done it for as long as I can remember, which is quite a while. Don't forget they controlled the House for 40 STRAIGHT YEARS.

My county was split and put in 4 heavy dem districts when we stared to GAIN in repub registrations.

So spare us the crocodile tears and accusations when the dems have a LONG history of doing the same thing.

As they say, "If you CAN'T TAKE IT, DON'T dish it out"!!

"It's the ECONOMY, stupid", as someone once said!

Full on beast mode MAGA Republican Party completely united with an agenda to help the American people while electorally vanquishing the Dems.
These days "conservative" simply means a middle of the road approach that follows our laws and abides by Rights and freedoms protected by the US Constitution.

I just want the small radical uber left faction, thats in control now, to be banished for the rest of my lifetime, & for whomever takes over to undo their residual damage.

Some need to be jailed...like the Biden's, the top FBI & DOJ hacks, & Hillary...but the pubs won't, because they're criminals too. There's no other plausible explanation.

I don't care what they call it....Contract with America...whatever. I like "Make America Solvent Again"

This is going to be the biggest Red wave of my lifetime, & I hope the Pubs don't blow it before the '24 election...they are quite capable of that, because of their greed & corruption.

Here's another idea for a slogan...."Make Government Small Again"

I'm pessimistic that the Pubs will ever shrink government...they'll just put the parasite on a diet.
