They joined the Democratic Party in the toilet of populism, just on the opposite side (most of the time) of the bowl.



Populism is no danger to the constitutional republic if it's not of the communist/socialist flavor.

America First populism is based in constitutional principles and capitalism, not crony capitalism that is embraced by DC Establishment Uniparty Republicans who have sold out the American people out to foreign interests.

We are losing the constitutional republic to the cultural Marxists and the US Corporatocracy. It's simply Globalism and the Dims/Groomers love it too....cultural Marxist Utopia.

Archaic ways? Like believing only women can get pregnant? Stupid progressives. Regressives is more accurate.


This is why it was such a mistake for people to accept homo sex as normal and something to be celebrated

O.k., but the whole point is that it can be anything. There are no foundational principles.

You think MAGA people don't ever sound like BLM people? I've heard them say stuff that if you didn't know who said it you wouldn't be able to tell.

No I don't think America First types sound like BLM. The constitution is the guiding principles and the preservation of the constitutional republic and the dismantling of the Bureaucratic State should be the goal of every America First patriot.

Do you think America First types subscribe to the same tactics used by BLM/Antifa to force their will on others for societal change? Outside of the J6 Riot I can't say I've ever seen any America First/MAGA outrageous behavior on any large scale.

That's a great way to explain it!

No they won't. They'll still line up, hold their noses, and vote for the primary winner on election day. They're so much more unified in voting than Republicans are, and we have people who wonder why our side keeps losing.


For now, maybe. I don’t think the suburban gains are that solid. The suburban normies don’t like antifa or BLM, are worried about crime and inflation, don’t want their taxes going up, etc. They also don’t like Q anon or the altright or mean tweets. They can be gotten without changing much, all they need is for the left to be scaring them more on when they go to vote, which brings us to the hordes of lefties protesting Israel and Biden’s support of Israel. They are never going to vote for Trump, but there’s a good chance many of them won’t vote at all. I think 2024 could be the year the levy breaks for the liberal/left alliance, and then what? Is there a Never Trump/lib party, a progressive/socialist party, and a MAGA Republican Party? Of those I think it’s the the Never Trump/Lib party that loses. They’ve had control for decades and people on both sides are obviously deeply unhappy. They have all the big donors, but they’ve never had the grassroots. Trump showed what a sham the Mitt Romney wing of the Republican Party was. They only controlled things because they controlled conservative media and all the talking points. Then they all either treated Trump like a joke or dismissed him, and he won anyway. He ended Paul Ryan’s career! My hunch is that the Libs are going to find out sooner or later the same thing.

Let's hope and pray your post is indeed the mad facts when all is said and done.
