Trump is conservative with one aspect of immigration - securing the border. I would also say he is conservative with respect to military intervention.

Abortion? No

Budget? No

No, there's quite a bit wrong with that.

The left has been infested with populism for decades. It's what has produced everything you probably criticize them for.

Now people on the "right" are doing the same thing but strangely can't see that they're doing the same thing.

Once both sides are dominated by populists, it's game over. No more adults in the room.

How many people voted in them?

How many of them actually mattered?

Here in LA, we have yet to vote

More evidence that weak individuals merely parrot what they think is the popular thing to say. "Group Think" is their life bread.

We can do a score board on this.

There are 435 House seats and 100 Senators.

The House currently has 219 Republicans
The Senate currently has 49 Republicans

How many House members are MAGA? 5? 10?

How many Senators are MAGA? Maybe 1 (Vance)?

With 10 Reps, MAGA is 4.6% of the House
With 1 Senator, MAGA is 2% of the Senate

You would think that if MAGA was the majority, they'd be doing better. The Tea Party was exponentially more successful than MAGA.

I still don't think so. 35% of the base means a much smaller percentage of the general population.

Remember, in any given election somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of eligible voters don't vote.

So when you talk about the Republican base you're talking about roughly 50% of between 50-66%. Then 35% of that.

There's a much larger group of Americans than that IMO who don't identify as members of the Trump cult or BLM or Gays for Palestine or any populist special interest group. They may vote for Trump to avoid voting for Biden, but they don't love him and they sure don't worship him like you guys.

They have a conglomerate of weird fringe groups.


That's right. You know why? Because they have been infested with populism for much longer than the Republicans. Just wait.

Those fringe groups are nothing more than populist special interest groups. And most members of them are not single issue voters...they support the party overall, they just want a special group dedicated to their pet populist grievance.

You'll see Middle Class for Fair Housing Prices or Patriots Against The Uniparty or Screw The Deep State if you just wait and this populist idiocy continues to grow. We've already had the Tea Party.

The only difference is that the leftist brand of populism classifies people based on identity politics and the right wing brand of populism doesn't (yet).

But both of y'all claim perpetual victimhood and have your Boogy Men and your conspiracy theories to prove the Boogy Men exist.

Trump supporters are the only ones clear minded enough to know this is our way to beat the Marxists and make our enemies shake in fear (especially after all they've done to him.)

I've met 0 Trump supporters that agree with him on everything he does. It's just simple. He is the movement. The sour grapes people who want to put their heads in the sand and wish it all away and have things go back to normal are in denial of the most egregious type.

Our country will never go back to how it was in the 90s or before. That shite is over.

Pick your fighter.

Ours is Trump.

Yeah, that must be it. Cheating Trump supporters stuffed the ballot box to the tune of giving Trump a 75% majority.

Did it take you all night to come up with that reply?

If where we are now is the result of decades of aduilts in control, then it's time to burn this to the ground and start over.

See, thats an understandable position, and Trumps a guy to do it.

If the goal it to bring it all down, its a viable optiion.

You are so rational when it comes to everything except Trump. Then it's all about feels. Trump acts like a narcissistic douchebag blowhard, everyone knows it. We also know that he isn't a marxist piece of shite, and is the only person capable of slowing down the circling of the marxist shithole drain.
