FREE SHIT!

That's the 800 lb guerilla

Tribal allegiance, free shit, and the general dumbing down. People have become stupid, thanks to our ever-degenerating education system. And spoiled. Sorry, but it's true. Maybe after a war on our soil - God forbid - or some serious shortages, empty shelves and rationing, the sort of thing that Europe has gone through, people will get smart. Might be too late though - the influx of thousands of people through our border, who have everything handed to them including cell phones they don't make a single payment on, ever - I don't know. I'm so disheartened. The band keeps playing but the ship is going down.

Me too.

Republicans are so good at snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory.

As for dumbing down - all we have to do is look at the incredible percentage of people who bought into the "pandemic" fraud.

Bought into or simply too passive to stand against it?

Now that the panicdemic has more or less run its course (and the perpetrators are seeking a blanket pardon) expect the global warming fraud to get more and more play over the next two years.

Yup! Thanks Lindsay Graham!, what the hell was that all about? Boeing keeps your slimy pockets filled, so why was it necessary to call for a National Ban on abortion???? Huge douche move.

Not so much snatching defeat as unable to offer a different (and more appealing) carrot. "At least we're not Democrats" is hardly a deal closer. And so long as the GOP remains locked in a civil war between the country club elites and the barbarian MAGA hoards the self-harm will only continue I'm afraid. The Democrat message of a utopian unity under Marxism is apparently more appealing.

тАЬthe country club elites and the barbarian MAGA hoards тАЬ.... yup, and thatтАЩs why this party Girl has no Party. And why the # of Independents continues to grow. I wish I could be optimistic about a third party, but SHOCK! I donтАЩt trust politicians, period.

Oh they excel at it. My sig oth has been saying this all along - don't get your hopes up. Maybe now he will get behind moving to Mexico

At this point Mexico is probably safer than most large American cities.

For the most part. You do know where you stand.

they offer no real solutions as a national party, and are run by feckless, bought off empty suits(see Mitch McConnell). DeSantis is a leader, and he produced tangible results. He proved it can be done. I know of many lifelong libs that voted DeSantis down here in Florida, especially cops and fire fighters. He is what a real leader looks like, and he offers a message that resonates with 60% of the population.

Agree 1000%

You'll not find a bigger DeSantis fan than my family. We live in Florida. He is the future. It's just a matter if the suits get behind him or try to take him down.

Ww3 might do the trick. Unfortunately the USA is guaranteed to lose.

That happened in Maine too. Free education, $850 refund checks (our money to begin with) and hey look I balanced the budget (with COVID funds that will still come out of our pocket)тАж.

Too many donтАЩt even understand the political process and how our government was structured.

Are you old enough to remember, back in the prehistoric era, when schools were allowed to actually teach, curricula included subjects like "civics", and "history", and "economics". We learned, in the elementary grades, how government was supposed to work, and how it had, and had not, worked in the past. An some of us, the lucky ones, when we reached high school, were even taught how government actually worked.

Today - all of these subjects have been banned.
