, both GA senators were horrible and only had negative ads against the dems. When a lot of the country is struggling they want to hear what you will do for them not just negative ads all the time.
Negative ads work for democrats. We have complained when Republicans did not go negative and lost.

The country is suffering because of overzealous shut downs put in place by mostly democrats. But, they have 90% of the media to carry their water for them. Negative ads need to be made.

Not sure how old you are, but if you were around for 9/11 and this is your darkest day then you are part of the issue.


The end results of what happened yesterday will have a much more detrimental result on the country than 911.

I’m probably older or as old as 85% of the people on this site. I lived through and remember the Reagan years and end of the Cold War. Remember his speech in real time at the Berlin Wall, then shortly thereafter when the wall was breached, seeing families sobbing in each other’s arms as they laid eyes on each other for the first time since WWII. I remember seeing the tanks crush students in Tianenmen square bc they stood up against the commie govt. I remember the tanks rolling through the streets by the Kremlin and seeing the debris fly as they shot into the side of the building. Then, after the fall of the commie regime, seeing the newly freed people try to figure out the concept of personal freedom and independence- concepts that were COMPLETELY foreign and unbelievable to them. I’m old enough to have seen where socialism and communism leads. THATS why true conservatives stand up against govt control. THATS why we weather the hatred a vitriol spat at us by young hippie libtards who don’t know jack shite about what they are being led by the nose to unleash on this country. And THAT is why we lament the dying of the country.

MAGA will forever be remembered as a bunch of karens and hillbillies vandalizing the Capitol, occasionally pausing with statues and in congressional offices, and posting it to their Instagram accounts.


So I guess we're ignoring the months of burning and looting by our enlightened leftist privileged class, now? What a bunch of crap.

People on both sides of the aisle are sick of the establishment. All yesterday did was put it in the minds of the people that our elites can be reached. Yesterday will not be the last day. The Bastille is going to burn if they keep pushing.

This isn't even close to as bad as the bonus army frickery, if we're gonna compare events that occurred in the same city.

Don't despair. When one door closes, another opens. Wise is the man who sees oppertunity rising from the ashes of defeat.

Remember the values that made America strong still exist. Values like God, Freedom, Family, and Respect for Life and the dignity of the Human Person.

Let us begin anew. Hope springs eternal.

You forgot the biggest one of all. They control the media. They actually censored a sitting President.

75,000,000+ people were asking to be heard, and NO answer!
The LEFT asked for it...
SO, really, who turned the lights out? The LEFT did!

Not 9/11, Newtown shooting, Columbine, Pulse Nightclub, or Katrina? This. This is your darkest day.


All you listed above were tragic days and all will live in infamy. Yesterday was the darkest day in domestic politics that will cause pain for years and years. Now that Biden will be President, House and Senate firmly in one party rule made possible Tuesday by Georgia electing a pair of absolute leftist agenda driven socialist, we are in deep shite. The belief in one man one vote has now been proven to be a sham. In the future history will note, just as JFK election,Biden and JFK were elected by fraud. Kennedy and Biden didn't conspire for it, or even ask for it, but it did happen. Because that what big city democrat corrupt machines do....Biden has dementia, Warnock has the love in his heart as much as David Duke has and Ossoff has the depth of AOC...So yes: Darkest day in my lifetime politically and I'm probably older than the original poster.

The republicans controlled the house, senate, and president 4 years ago and it got squandered.

Don't worry dude this shite goes through cycles. Once a lot of people get sick of the Dems it'll shift back to the right. Trump won in 2016 because Americans were exhausted of 8 years of Obama.

While I wholeheartedly agree with the sense that we need a third party, I am not convinced of its practicality.

I think you would be surprised at the number of people who would associate with a RINO party. There are a lot of RINOs and classic liberals out there.

911 was dark but at least it was unifying.
A few dark days during the Clinton and Carter administrations:

Sending Elian Gonzales back to Cuba, that was embarrassing and morally bankrupt event.

Massacre of a bunch of women and children at the Branch Davidian complex in Waco Texas

The US exit from Vietnam leaving millions of South Vietnamese to be slaughtered by communists

People actually voted for this shite. Unreal. I don't understand why people would vote for a single policy on the dems side.


Simple answer, life is too good in America. Theres no strife or conflict for material needs, food or wellness care. When there is no real hard work needed for a better life for you or your offspring then there is time to focus on made up strife ie. Social Justice, Inequality etc. Good times create soft men...and so forth and so on.

Ignorant. Hive mind. Communist teaching in our education system. It has proliferated all levels of education.

Akin to the colonist giving trinkets and beads to the Indians for their land.

Ooooo shiny. That candy aint gonna crush itself.
