I don’t even know who they are defending.

My church discusses zero politicians or political topics at all.

If you believe in the Bible you can’t vote for Dems anyway.

Trump and team seem to be okay with abortions now so they are bending to get the votes.

I'm def voting for Trump because he seems way less evil than the left but I don't like that some of the policies are changing like that.

The culture war is never fully won.

It is the original forever war.

This is true - while I would like for the evangelicals to prevail from a MORALITY based standpoint, I recognize the risk of that going too far into rigorous Muslim-type dogma.

I think we need the GOVERNMENT to operate at a slightly lower level than a God-complex = because government is always operated by mortal men and you CANNOT afford to place god-like POWERs into the hands of ANY mortal man.

We have to rely on the good judgment that the founders left us.
- strictly LIMIT the powers the government can possess
- leave salvation of souls to individual relationships between God and man.

i.e. = follow our constitution as written and amend it with great caution.

Well Trump making the party more liberal isn’t the same thing as winning the culture war.

Correct. It's a sliding scale that vacillates around the middle, and ultimately inches left overall over time.

no. what matters is winning the mail-in & ballot harvesting war.

It should be combined arms offensive:
- do your own ballot harvesting
- find where they are storing the ones the illegals filled out and burn those places down

It matters.

I wouldn't say the Right is winning, but we've come to the realization that we're in a fight and we just landed a solid hook. There's a long way to go before the Right will have won the culture war.

No, I don't see the Right currently being victorious in the culture wars. More like the Left has just taken a quick, short breather, after going so fast-and-furious the past eight to ten years. They'll be right back in the game in a split-second, supporting something like the homosexual raping of kids in the city park during the noonday sun as some kind of brave, virtuous action.

All while the GOP proclaims it's not the hill to die on, and suburban moms start chiming in, saying the freaks and perverts have a point and should be listened to. A subject to 'evolve' on.

Gotta agree with you here. Seems to me like the Repubs will be doing well, and then just tank everything with abortion. This is gonna be unpopular here, but if you have capital punishment, then abortion is on the table as well imo. Unfortunately, life is not really all that sacred, we've been slaughtering each other since the dawn of time. I'm sure I will get a lot of hate, but the planet is overpopulated, and I have a hard time imagining many situations where an unwanted child grows up to be successful.

I don't know if you've noticed, but the market is speaking about this directly and it's not going so well for far-left content.
Have they stopped making the dei riddled content? I haven't noticed. Indoo see people still complaining about their favorite franchises continuing to be ruined.

ESG is a result of this. You've got a few businesses that have been called out and "taken action" but it will simply happen without the blatant signaling.

Hugely. But we’re a generation (3 decades) behind.

Don’t celebrate yet. This isn’t even half time. I remember similar celebrations when the Tea Party had success in 2010.

No. The left still control media and education and huge investment funds. What you see is a blip.


Also, at least as far as Tiktok and YouTube go, what you see is literally what you want to see; if you watch videos telling you that teens and rappers are all in on Trump, you'll get more of that.

Exactly. The way an evangelical might vote is relative to the ticket, not prior Republican candidates.

Trump is Trump, and the right isn’t bothering with trotting people like Franklin Graham out there to woo the religious right anymore. What does that tell you?

Conspiracy realist, are the largest voting third party in American history. You wish it was only Boomers coming around.

They are not leaving the MAGA party, just getting started.
