“Donald Trump and the M@G@ Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our Republic.
But there’s no question that the Republican Party today is dominated, driven and intimidated by Donald Trump and the M@G@ Republicans. And that is a threat to this country.
M@G@ Republicans do not respect the Constitution.
They promote authoritarian leaders, and they fanned the flames of political violence that are a threat to our personal rights, to the pursuit of justice, to the rule of law, to the very soul of this country. M@G@ Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live, not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies.
And M@G@ Republicans are destroying American democracy.”
Meanwhile, Democrat groups are actively helping these "terrorists" win primaries.
You guys must be really worried about them if you're voting for them and sending them money.
The strategy from the Democrats is clear. Get the Repubs to fight amongst each other and hope that Trump comes out on top. It's gonna be up to you guys to defeat Trump in the primary, but I don't think you will. I've been predicting a Trump vs Biden rematch since the moment Biden won.
this is a fair criticism, but Rs should not let them feel their party is innocent.
Ben Wexler @mrbenwexler TRUMP: I demand we nullify the results of the last election and that I be reinstated as president effective immediately BIDEN: See, that’s the type of thing a dictator would say MEDIA: Biden Abandons Pledge of ‘Unity'
It is the genuine belief of most conservatives that the left/Democrats are causing the division in America.

In both the Obama recovery from the Republican Great Financial Crisis and Biden's recovery from the Republican COVID recession....private sector jobs rebounded quickly but government jobs did not. This is wildly divergent from the classic right wing wrong stance that the Ds just juice government spending. Instead, Ds get private sector employment rocking but econ growth can be slower because they don't juice gummint hiring.
Catherine Rampell @crampell Private-sector employment is now way above its pre-pandemic levels (+885k). Public sector? Completely different story. State+local government combined are still down 647k jobs since Feb 2020 Lots of stories about teacher shortages - but the shortages are happening all across govt
Almost no conservatives support what happened on January 6th but…the Joetato administration deliberately not enforcing the democratically enacted laws of this country is not destroying democracy?
A vote for Trump in 2024 is a vote in support of what happened on Jan 6th. We'll see how many support it soon enough.
The shady MaL raid has guaranteed he's going to run.
Most Americans are tired of the drama around Trump, myself included.
I'd rather move on.
The problem is the Democrat alternatives to Trump are much much worse for the country.
Pretty incredible stats: -5.8 million jobs have added over the past year -Employment is now 240,000 higher than pre-pandemic -Men have fully recovered all job losses from pandemic. (Women are close, but still ~264,000 off) -Manufacturing added 461,000 jobs in past year
Jesus Christ...
You lock down the country destroying the economy and think people are going to buy into your trying to take credit for growth when it re-opens?
The only people stupid enough to believe this garbage were already voting blue.

Division is literally the go to campaign strategy of Democrats and has been for decades.

Of course, it's even an increment worse than that, because he's missing a second and key Trump(/R Party) statement: "If you don't agree with the first Trump statement/bald face lie, we denigrate you and banish you from the party."
Hey du** f** Trumpers, you're supporting an anti-democracy party. Pure and simple. As far from "patriots" as one could get.
Well, UNLESS you were ALSO hoarding national security info at your private residence for unknown reasons. Oh, wait.......

the economy was locked down during the Trump administration.
And let me repeat with bold:

The problem is the Democrat alternatives to Trump are much much worse for the country.
I also think most Americans are tired of it, but "most Americans" is not what he needs. He needs "most registered Republican voters," which is way easier. You'd probably be better off figuring out how to get people to vote for DeSantis than you are arguing against liberals who will never agree with you.
A fascist is someone who refuses to accept the result of a democratic election even after losing 60+ court cases.
A fascist is someone who insists that state lawmakers ignore the will of the people and declare their preferred candidate the winner even though the electorate voted otherwise.
A fascist is someone who attempts to prevent the peaceful transfer of power through violence.
A fascist is someone who calls for immediate reinstatement to the highest office in the land even though no such thing exists under the constitution.
It is the genuine belief of most conservatives that the left/Democrats are causing the division in America.
Division is literally the go to campaign strategy of Democrats and has been for decades.
Poor vs rich.
white vs black.
gay vs straight.
All Democrats do is division.
That's certainly one interpretation. Poor vs rich is certainly one I agree with. The other two are silly and non-representative of the party position. We are for white AND black, gay AND straight.

The only one who can prevent Trump from running is Trump. If he knew what was good for him he would hand the torch to DeSantis and let DeSantis clean out the obvious rot in the swamp. His ego won't let him do this.
Trump's awful. Democrats are much much worse.
I'm a libertarian and I wouldn't vote for a Democrat at this point even if you put a gun to my head.
The polls show your party has nothing much to run on. And if you think all this legislation is so great Biden should have been talking about that.
the polls suggest the Dems have an 80% chance of keeping the senate and 35% chance of keeping the House. In midterms, when usually the other party wins a ton.
So nah, the Ds clearly have a lot to run on.
And don't worry - you'll hear about all that great legislation if you are in a purple area. Which your posts suggest you are not.
F*** polls and the stupidity of Americans (as reflected in polls and elections). HERE is what the D party has to run on: "We're not the party against free and fair elections."
In a "great" country full of actual "patriots" that would be more than enough to win on, and very, very easily.
Alas, we're a country full of far, far too many anti-democracy morans like illini/adult/gary/sally.
Even worse, it's not like anti-democracy is the ONLY bad thing that they do or would support. Fact is, they're tribal followers who ALSO support lots of other bad behavior and huge and disqualifying character flaws in their leaders because Trump and Fox News tells them to.
I'm not a liberal. Liberals have annoying me a fair amount my entire life.
But liberals aren't sheep.
"Conservatives" in this country, by and large, have shown themselves to be ABSOLUTE f***** sheep.
"Donny and Tucker and Ron and some guy on the internet told me to view things this moran tribal way, and I sure as hell will !!!"
