Your takes are retarded, bro. You're judging elections in some of the most liberal places in this country, that were almost never going to not be won by Democrats, as a nationwide rebuke of Trump and the GOP?

Lmao people actually believe this shite. That 19% poll Quinnipiac put out was bait and the right ate it up hook line and sinker



OK, well, CNBC, CNN, and Fox must all only use the Quinnipiac poll. The D party isn't doing well, my friend. Get your head out of the sand.

Its not the result, its the shift

The right celebrated Karen Handel barely winning a congressional seat in 2017 and guess what happened in Georgia after that

Virginia shifted blue in every single county and elected a democrat supermajority

That's why when they are interviewed at protests and asked: 'What Trump policy do you hate?' they cast a blank stare.


If they said something you’d probably dismiss it and say “you don’t REALLY listen to Trump like yall do with Charlie Kirk

The GOP hates Turning Point because the younger voters that TPUSA was attracting was voicing concerns about matters that are at odds with the GOP leadership, specifically foreign policy and H1B visas.

What would a sub 40 year old understand or know about foreign policy?

That’s a hell of a topic to get hung up on for something that takes living to fully understand.

But by all means, please tell us how to handle foreign policy.

Maybe we are tired of paying taxes to fund never ending wars overseas.

I'm with you in being thrilled with Trump. He's the best president of my lifetime...but I am 64, and have a different perspective than someone starting their adult life.

My views haven't changed. I backed Trump because he campaigned like Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul but has governed like Lindsey Graham.

Also being laid off 3 times and having to train my Indian H1B replacement all 3 times makes me a little pissed off that foreigners continue to flood the country to take jobs away from Americans

I think g-nug is a little premature with the sky is falling rhetoric. That said, I do think that whatever MAGA/AF is now is going to break into pieces. Chris Christie once described Trump as a force of nature. He had a unique ability to cobble together various factions. I don't see that anyone else can do that. Some factions are naturally going to end up disillusioned, anyway, but this is why I think the trashing of Massie and Rand is stupid. That libertarian support base will be gone in the future. Same for people who supported Trump due to Tulsi and RFK's vision that he will cool it with the regime change nonsense.

I don't really know what he can do to fire up the young base in the future. He did well on the culture wars, but that only lasts so long.

No one said ignore the voting block? But to let their emotions lead the way is grossly irresponsible.

I've been called a Kamala voter dozens of times on this board when I criticize this administration


I've been living that since 2016. The fact that there is a large population of people on here who truly believe I'm a DEM should be mind-blowing for any rational person. I have literally 20 years of evidence otherwise, but the thought processes of these people are so polluted they have truly bought into the in/out group dynamics to an INSANE degree.

For instance, a poster claimed that I supported Obama and voted for him. There is more than 8 years of posts of mine on here showing the opposite and I asked for his evidence. This utter incoherent irrelevance of a thread was his genuine response

The fact that so may believe that if you don't melt down hard enough, you're somehow the enemy is why I compare them to North Koreans in what I call the Dear Leader Display.



You don't cry hard enough? That's evidence that you're an enemy of the state (this actually happened in NK after Kim Jong-Il died, for those who don't know).

Stop overthinking it. See previous post covering it. Demographics is destiny, Democrats played the game with some weak Republicans and now we are stuck in it.

Democrats give out free shite and citizenship in exchange for votes

How are we supposed to compete against that when their voters are comprised of sub 80 IQ foreigners?

Why people vote Democrat
