Right. I seems like history has proven that Republicans love to spend like drunken sailors when in power and only become fiscal hawks when Dems are in charge.

This new tax plan is a net trillion loser. I got $450 back instead of owing $2000 like last year and year before.

Buying votes on the backs of people ten years from now.

If you’re feeling some Prog/Dim guilt send the $450 back to the Swamp, better yet, kick in an additional $2000, you’ll sleep better, I guarantee!

75% Common Sense Constitutionalist/Conservatives.

24.9% TDS Infected Libs who like to regurgitate the DNC/DummiesUnited talking points and then run like little puss!es and never come back when they can't support them.

.1% Completely f*cking insane far, far, far leftwing nutjob with the worst case of TDS ever recorded who actually thinks he's some sort of "independent" and above-it-all but is actually a complete f*cking moron (VOR).

Fewer Repubs than will be indicated in this thread. IMO TPTB is predominately libertarian rather than Dem or Rep.

I have no idea as to percentages, but there appears to be a majority of center-right and Trump supporters on this board that understand (are woke and take offense) to the unhinged, full fledged, liberal, progressive and anti American assault on “the right” and “white privilege.”

There is a healthy dose of libertarians here seeking to be heard in the face of a ballot box that reflects no ground swell of support for their causes.

There is a limited number of the whacko, progressive, left that shouts in support of killing babies, raising your taxes, redistributing wealth, opening the boarders to Mexicans and Muslims and initiating economic policies that are ruinous to our economy.

Even if it's 75/25 or 78/22, that's still a sizable number of lefties here.
If one defines the term “Lefties” to include everything Left of Center, PLUS Centrist Republicans, Main Street Republicans, libertarians, anarchists, etcetera ... then the final number may well be accurate.

In other words, about 80% probably fall into the blue, red or pink regions on the right of this Nolan-type landscape.
