That's a much bigger deal than the rejection of fiscal conservatism. Trump's always spent like a Democrat and has no plans to deal with the deficit/debt.
Its probably about time to bump your thread.

It’s been around long enough I might have been defending Trump in it.

Again, I can post a bunch of Nazis who wanted Trump to win.

Does either set of endorsements describe either Trump or Massie? No.

Your point lacks any merit.

Labeling Massie a "Swamp creatures" expands the definition so much it has no value. As Bunk said, it's so incredibly irrational it moves into Orwellian territory. We're talking pure 1984 language destruction.

It's locked, but it can be revisited, specifically comparing the next CR to the Biden-era CRs

I wasn’t asking for forgiveness Nor am I ashamed. My views on Trump changed from watching his actions instead of his words. I think that thread started right around the time I was like “hey, wait sec…”

Yes, this has been a fascinating era to watch and discuss the new version of MAGA as well as the implications of influence on those new changes.

It’s why i’m so entertained when they throw
out the “you hate Trump and have TDS” It’s so similar to when VegasBengal or BamaATL would throw out “you’re just a racist!” with any criticism of Obama back in the day. Exact. Same. Pathology.

Well that should cure people from obsessing over Only Fans. So I'll chalk that up to community service. The article as a whole is a fair assessment.

Massie lost because we are in the middle of an ideology war with people who hate what our country represents. They have been trying for a decade to turn our country into a socialist communist country.

It's either you are on the side of America or you are on the side of communism. There is nothing in between.

When a district that Trump won by 44 points, you better get on board with America or get voted out

People are sick and fricking tired of these communists trying to overthrow our country

Right now I'm this moment in American history, it is no longer Republican vs Democrat.. it is Americans vs Communists.

Until these communists get weeded out of government, it's always going to be this.

Once they all get weeded out of power, then we can go back to the normal of being Republicans vs Democrats

You've taken the "RINO" and "swamp" irrationality to a new level.

Massie is trying to turn our country into a socialist country? What?

So the guy who is further from communism than Trump should be followed, right?

Yes he is trying to turn our country into a communist country because the past year he has done everything the communists has asked him to do by voting against the American people who elected this President.

In this situation that we are in dealing with these communists, you can never give these fricking people an inch. You are either all in defeating them or you are part of them. There's no in between

It's not about Republicans vs Democrats.

It's about America vs Communism until they are all wedded out of power. That's called war you dumbass

Yep. That’s true.

quote:

On "The Daily Show" Monday night, the liberal comic told self-described democratic socialist Bernie Sanders that Trump is carrying out the Vermont senator's "revolution."

"You could almost make a case that the true inheritor of the Sanders revolution is Trump," Stewart said.

"He is the most socialist president of my lifetime."

"Taking a percentage of companies to do business? That's a Bernie Sanders idea. Doing TrumpRx where the government is involved in selling pharmaceuticals? That's a Bernie Sanders idea."

Then Stewart doubled down.

"Is it frustrating that the thing that you fought for your whole career, Democrats are the ones who run away from scared and Trump has embraced some of it?" he asked.

We have two DS parties now. Which one you want?

How is the small government libertarian trying to turn our country into a communist country, and how is big-government, big spending Trump who has floated literal socialist policies, further away from Communism than Massie?

I don't think you know what Communism is.

quote:

by voting against the American people who elected this President.

Again, Trump's policies are closer to communism than Massie's. Why would you be shocked that Massie didn't support some policies that cross that line?

Again, Trump's policies are closer to communism than Massie. Shouldn't he be the one you address this towards?
