No. The country has become too polarized. The "extremes" of both parties have taken over the discourse in the MSM, and control public opinion through indoctrination.

No lol. Because no one will ever agree what that means.

In this thread you’ll have people who think
-trump was moderate and that’s good
-trump was moderate and that’s bad
-moderates are reasonable and preferable
-moderates are spineless pussies
-trump was far right and that’s bad
-trump was far right and that’s great
-trump was actually just basically Bill Clinton


I mean shite. Why even ask “will ___ ever happen” when we can’t ever agree on what’s happening?

He spend a lot and he did do amnesty.

I'll say right but not as hard right as Vivek who is about the hardest right I've seen run.

The middle of what?

Hopefully in the middle of a federal prison cell somewhere as far from Washington as possible

So the FBI wants the Seth Rich laptop BURIED, and you want a *Moderate* to address that? The Deep State is destroying this Nation with an open Border, energy policy lunacy and crashing the USD. Moderate? Good grief!

What does this Bible verse have to do with political discourse?

Now seriously, "moderate" or centrist candidates used to be found in both parties. Scoop Jackson, John Glenn and Lieberman are three Democrats who were often characterised as "moderates."

Of course not. Everyone thinks their side is sensible and the other side is crazy.

If you are an Ultra MAGA freak or a Socialist purple haired freak, you should remember normal people think of you as about the same.

Convictions? Give me someone that can reason over someone with convictions.
You can reason your way to genocide, rape, and chattel slavery. You can reason your way to tyranny. You can reason your way any sort of immorality imaginable. Convictions are guardrails for reason.

quote:

Abortion, for example, I’m moderate. I don’t like it, I want policies in place to reduce its need and excessive availability. However, I also recognize the right to bodily autonomy from government, within reason. Do embryos have rights? No. Does a fetus at 8 months have some semblance of the rights afforded to all Americans; damn right it does.
For a person who claims to value reason over conviction, you have just displayed an amazing lack of both.
