    Oh! I see you keyed on that too. :applause: In his OP : "Dems are a party for blacks, women, hispanics" he forgot(?) to include "Jews!" but otherwise the virtue signal was crystal clear. Except to all the liberals who are fawning over his defection from the GOP. Biden could work with this guy. :lol:

    My vote still counts the same as it would if I joined the Communist Party.

    Seems people overwhelmingly vote Democrat or Republican. Not sure how it's all the rage to be independent. Seems less and less common as time goes by to me.

    Well, enjoy Trump because that is what you are fostering, a second term for the scumbag.

    Only way to do that is reduce spending.

    I like a lot of what Trump has done. I'll likely vote for him the next time around.

    I've been a registered Indy all my life. Voted for Reagan, voted for Bill Clinton. Got no party ties to sever, don't play identity politics. I'm sure the GOP isn't going to miss you. :bye: :blowkiss:

    You don't have the same say in who a party is put on teh head of the ticket. In many states you cannot even vote in a Dem or GOP primary if you are an independent.

    Not sure how could have possibly missed it. Everyone wants to think of themselves as open minded and "there own man." So they registar as independent and look for opportunities to announce this to others. Meantime, as you say, they always vote DEm or GOP still.

    Yes ... I'm making no secret of it either. I really despise commies and Trump's the alternative. I like my private insurance, and I like paying less taxes. I don't like my tax dollars providing more assistance to illegal aliens than homeless, or impoverished citizens. 2020 is a no brainer. Straight GOP ticket.

    On the whole it usually appears that RINOs are the last to realize that they have become RINO. It always seems to come as something of a shock to them when the last penny finally drops.

    Ladies and gentlemen, the modern GOP. You are either 100% with Trump or you are a RINO.

    LOL, I am a white mail, educated, and ethical and I think Trump is the most refreshing person to run for President in my long life. Someone that is doing what he has been talking about for 30 years regardless of the polls. Not a typical politician that changes their view based on polls.

    If you are looking for morality among anyone then who's morality are you using? Certainly not Christian morality because all men are sinners. I look at what he does and accomplishes and not the hysteria about his braggadocio. In a swamp of politicians it is hard to get anything done because everyone has their favored lobbyists they are working for.

    Not just cynicism (although some of that too), but reality and numbers.

    Think about it this way: The debt is $22 trillion. Let's say to be very conservative, we'd decide to pay it off at a rate of $500 billion a year (would take 44 years). That means, we have to not only slash the current deficit ($1 trillion), plus find another $500 billion for debt repayment. That's a differential of $1.5 trillion or 8% of total US GDP.

    Now, think about what will happen to the economy in the short term if you take 8% out of it. Say goodbye to 3% GDP growth, say hello to -5% GDP contraction (i.e. a recession).

    And that, in a nutshell, is why NO POLITICIAN IN THEIR RIGHT MIND will attempt to balance the budget, let alone pay down the debt. It's just not mathematically possible without crashing the economy and turning EVERY voter against you.

    So what's the problem? You can vote for the party that wants white genocide or the party that doesn't. Sounds like a no brainer to me. There is no shame in voting that way. Even blacks that don't like Obama and are republican still voted for oBama for ONE reason, race. If you are white and have kids you are basically creating your own kids death sentence if you vote left. It's not a hard choice.

    Hah!!! like thats going to happen. The debates reminded me of an old french film about an asylum that is abandoned by staff leaving the gates open. The name of the film I think is King of Hearts and is a rich comedy much like the debates. If you've seen it you'll know what i'm talking about. Great post by the way, nicely written.

    LOL! Yes, all of us white people want white genocide. What is sad is that I know you are naive and gullible enough to believe this drivel.

    We can only HOPE to re-elect the guy who ramped up the national economy, casually destroyed Obama's ISIS, and signed into law the largest tax reform bill in history while otherwise actually TRYING to keep the majority of his campaign promises. Yep . . . a truly EVIL guy. He's got my vote . . . again.

    How can you learn anything about America from the Democrat debate? The Republicans are the party that reduced black unemployment to the lowest level in history. The Democrats are the party of segregationists. The only thing to learn is that the party of slavery and segregation in the past is still the party of slavery and segregation. No escaping it. They are as nasty and hateful now as they've ever been and their hatred was on display last week.

    I'm voting for Biden to be the Democrat nominee and Trump to be the President and champion of prosperity for blacks and legal immigrants.

    Wrong. You actually have to espouse something remotely conservative, once you get by the balanced budget crap his policy differences with the statist left are essentially nil. That makes him a neo con. Which s to say neither new nor conservative.
