Slavery, racism, White Supremacy/KKK, Segregation/Anti-Civil Rights...that's all Democrat stuff & always has been.

* Ukraine
* Abortion
* Climate Change
* Trump
* LGB^/transgenderism
Those are our only choices? The economy, inflation, expanding government, collapsing supply chain, millions of illegal aliens flooding in, didn't even make the cut?

Not much point in answering this "poll".

White Supremacy? A few backwoods hillbillies in jacked-up trucks are hardly a problem worth wasting any time on. It's pretty much non-existent, except in the minds of folks who live in a world of perceived perpetual victim-hood.
You can't honestly believe that. The face of white supremacy today isn't backwoods or hillbillies - many times they are professionals, teachers (see the guy who just got fired in Pflugerville, TX for admitting to his students he believed in white supremacy), and young people (Dylann Roof, Peyton Gendron in Buffalo). People still get killed for no other reason than the color of their skin and no, the majority of those killed for that reason in this country aren't white.

Racism against anyone, including whites, is evil. However, trying to minimize it's often deadly impact against people of color, even today is make-believe and indicative of people who want to put their heads in the sand while acting like they don't notice any of the actual racist incidents that still happen and get people killed.

These are mostly among the top tier of issues -- sort of ranked but changeable. The economy, immigration, tax reform, college debt, others could be added.

Abortion -- a "settled" issue overturned by a rogue court and now needs to be codified. Fixable.
Climate Change -- serious global issue. Likely too late to mitigate very much. Long term issue.
Ukraine -- a global destabilizing issue -- need to put Putin back in his cage. War criminal.
Trump -- public enemy number one is his own worst enemy. Will be indicted. Convicted.

LGB^/transgenderism -- of no special importance other than to have right-wingers ****!

I would say advancing the cause of worldwide communism. That's #1.

congress is hard at work on what? Border security? Inflation/Economy? Global warming?

Nah, the focus for now is on codifying same sex marriage.

A history of lies? What lies? Roots of a slum lord? WTH are you talking about? You make a lot of claims without viable, unbiased sources to back them up.

There was some suspicion that Obama wasn't born in the U.S. and Trump and many others did believe it. Trump has been married for 18 years to the same woman. Are you actually holding his past against him? What about all the other philanderers who were presidents or politicians and many of them were Democrats to. Do they get a pass?

He took sides with oppressive leaders? I only saw him having diplomatic relations with them which is a wise thing to do.

YOU believe he is demented and a coke freak? Well if you think so then it must be true! Are you unaware that Trump doesn't even drink? Are you actually stating that Trump has sniffed coke in the past 20 years? Where's your proof of that? He does have law abiding Americans on his side who believe in our 2nd Amendment rights. Is that a bad thing?

Trump is no longer president get over it and move on from your TDS!

A rogue SC? I note that you didn't elaborate on the illegal immigration issue like you did the other ones and yet it is a far more pressing issue today than the others you mentioned. Why is that?

To those that chose climate change, did you know you'd have to reduce your carbon footprint by 80% to have any impact?

Are you willing to do that? That would mean no cars, no HVAC, no home apliances....well...are you willing?
