Obamacare has raped the middle class. Loss of jobs overseas from NAFTA.

Please explain how the "poor" do worse with GOP?

When the so called top 1% are taxed at your perceived acceptable level and the government runs out of money how low will your democratic brethren have to demonize to fund their hold on power top 5% or 15?

For the life of me, I have never figured out why anyone that gets paid by the hour, or carries a lunchbox to work, would even contemplate voting for a republican.


This is why Hillary lost. So out of touch.

you want to give up 50% of your income to help others?

You'd be fricked with your scenario and liberal taxes. Incredible

If you look at recent elections and figure 45-47% of voters nationally support GOP tax policies, that means roughly 40% of people are voting against their own financial interests

And this self-employed father probably voted for a Republican governor who passed up Medicaid expansion to his state which, of course, would've saved him a TREMENDOUS amount of money.

Pretty sure OP was drunk. He dropped in, spammed a few absurd posts, then vanished.

Middle class and lower middle class republican tradition. And its easy to distract them from protecting their interest, God, abortion, guns, race, gender, immigration and fear of the brown man is popular right now, etc etc. Works every election.
