Fall of the Republican Party

[Truth Detector]

I agree with your point, that I had not really considered, that as vocal as the Retrumplicans are, they lost all three branches of government. That is telling.

Funny how when Democrats lost all three branches several times in the last 2 decades, you didn't think it was telling.

By the way, they have a 50/50 tie in the Senate and the slimmest of margins in the House. Apparently dimwitted wonder dunces think that's a mandate.

 

[Truth Detector]

Agreed. Right now I think anyone who leans right like myself

Low IQ dunce thinks he leans right.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

My first election was 1996, and in the 25 years I've been voting, I've never once voted for a Republican.

Never.

If a Republican runs unopposed, I either don't vote in that race, or write a name in.

I cannot, will not in good conscience ever cast a vote for the party of Nazis, Klansmen, Antisemites, racists, homophobes, and bigots.

ALWAYS write a name in. ALWAYS vote. Someone real even if yourself. A good reason is to throw off the size of his win.

Example; Class president running unopposed with a student body of 100. 30 students are slackers and dopers who don't vote. Throw in 10 clueless idiots who don't vote either. That leaves 60 students to pick the Student President. 20 of them think he's a blowhard and a racist asshole while 40 favor him or will vote for him simply because his is the only name on the ballot.

If only the 40 vote, then he wins by 100% of the votes.

If the 20 vote and each write in their own names, then he only wins by 66.6% against 33.3% opposed. 40 votes to 20 votes opposed. He can't use the "100% are for me" bullshit. It weakens his agenda for students to send a message "a third of us are against you fucking assholes". It also incentivises the student body to push for something better.

Seeing Mr. Nice Guy win by 100% turns people away from opposing him. "We can never beat him" they say.

Seeing him scrape by with only 66.6% proves he's weak and vulnerable even though there is no viable candidate opposing him. The more people who vote against him, the less of a "mandate from the people" he has. Other members of the student council are more likely to speak up and oppose him knowing that a large portion of the student body are doing the same.

In the next election, even if the class spaz ran on the Spaz ticket and picked up 10 votes then the results would skew the numbers against Mr. Invulnerable. It weakens the dominant party to have people voting against them. Non-voters don't count because they don't exist as voters. Non-voters silence themselves.

It's very important for all Americans to inform themselves as best they can and vote. It's not just for some elected official, there's usually other seats and bills on the ballot too. VOTE!

VOTE for yourself if you don't like anyone on the ballot but VOTE.

We hate that you people are so stupid you would kill yourself and your kids to please a fat ugly orange con man

Hate speech.

Good about your father, but your LW extremism was caused by something to do with authority. What are your earliest memories of RW assholes?


As for Buckley, do you know the full quote in context? Because the way you are using it seems deceptive because it twists the meaning.

Just like you do, sock.

Court facts say you suck

A liberal judge's opinion is not a proof, idiot. The fact that you bring this up again only shows your racism AGAIN.

Ronald reagan race baited and cheated his way into power

[Into the Night]

How you can tell when the Republican Party became the racist party?


When the Americans who were black switched parties


Then the republicans said all those black people got fooled


They think all black people are stupid

Racism. You are describing Democrats.

Ronald Reagan’s Long-Hidden Racist Conversation With Richard Nixon
In newly unearthed audio, the then–California governor disparaged African delegates to the United Nations.

By Tim Naftali

Cutting and pasting lies by other Democrats again. You have no mind of your own.

 

[Into the Night]

The day after the United Nations voted to recognize the People’s Republic of China, then–California Governor Ronald Reagan phoned President Richard Nixon at the White House and vented his frustration at the delegates who had sided against the United States. “Last night, I tell you, to watch that thing on television as I did,” Reagan said. “Yeah,” Nixon interjected. Reagan forged ahead with his complaint: “To see those, those monkeys from those African countries—damn them, they’re still uncomfortable wearing shoes!” Nixon gave a huge laugh.

And of course he was referring to the idiot delegates at the UN from some of the African nations, which refused to wear shoes. Again, you ignore context to change meaning.

 

[Into the Night]

It’s cold hard undeniable fact Ronny was a racist

Learn English. A fact is not a proof nor a Universal Truth.
You are describing Democrats, and yourself.

This late sixties report spoke of the horrific racism black Americans faced


And the Republican Party then switched to being the racist party


Weird huh



It’s like they read it and said


Gee I like all this racism

Let’s harness it for evil

Never did. You are describing Democrats...and they never switched. They've always been racist. So are you.

 

[Into the Night]

Now play the LBJ racist tape. LOL

Yes, even the first Republican President was a fucking racist. Same goes for LBJ. OTOH, Harry S Truman seemed a lot more enlightened than the Democrats before him and after.**

Are you claiming the Republicans hold a monopoly on racism in American, evince? I'd agree with a majority of the racism, maybe even 75%, being on the Republican side but I'd have to see the numbers first.

Racism, bigotry, discrimination for genetic reasons and hatred are bad. Wrong. Neither party is virtuous when it comes to any of them. Sure, the Republicans are worst, but don't use that as an excuse to be blind to racism, misogyny and bigotry in the Democratic Party.



**I was a military brat going to desegregated DOD schools throughout the 60s. The riots and protests on television didn't make sense to me since there were kids and parents of different races on my block and in my school. We played together just like any other kids. It was normal for us. What I saw on television wasn't normal.

Lincoln was not a racist, dumbass.

 

[Into the Night]

Thanks. My wife has been a big influence.

Why do you think I've been had, evince?

I love facts and strive to maintain my integrity and honor. Part of the Bushido Code, doncha know.

You deny everything on this 'code', dumbass.

Who wrote this up for you? Your quack martial arts school for kids?

 

[Into the Night]

"Republican"/"Democrat" are just the party labels...Conservatism holds the monopoly on racism in America.

You are describing Democrats.

The Klan weren't liberals,

Yes they were. They were created by the Democrat party. They still fund and support these jackasses to this day.

Conservatism is rooted in racism, and it's always been rooted in racism...it hops between the parties, depending on whichever has decided to be the Conservative party at the time.

You cannot get away with blaming conservatives for YOUR problems.
