Today the Republican party offers nothing constructive. No new ideas, no positive comments, just attack, attack, attack, while offering no constructive ideas.
The Republican’s will lose the midterms and the General Election because they are following a one liner going nowhere.
I here and now ask any Republican here to wake up, if you have any common sense, this is the time to user it. Wake up, be an American and not a Republicon,
If the Republicans win this time around our experiment in a democratic republic will be doomed.

Re: Why the republicans are destined to fail
Post #51He's now about as old as Biden was when Biden got in. I understand a lot of people like his policies but please, please, I am so sick of other countries making fun of America because the president is so old most of his screws are loose.Diagoras wrote: ↑Wed Nov 16, 2022 1:02 amJudging by some of the reactions of former supporters, it's no longer a certainty that he'll win the Republican nomination. And if he loses, but refuses to concede (perhaps starting up his own 'Trump Party'), then the resulting chaos on that side may very well hand victory to the Democrats.
Can we have a race between a 40-year-old and a 50-year-old, instead of between two people who, if the world was sane, would be doped up in a nursing home thinking they were running for president?

Re: Why the republicans are destined to fail
Post #53I remain convinced that there is no significant difference between the victory of one political party over another, as the very existence of political parties weakens the structure of the government by undermining the separation of powers (any single party being in control of all three branches of government effectively nullifies the system of checks and balances).thomasdixon wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 10:20 amIt was true then and it remains true todaythomasdixon wrote: ↑Fri Feb 04, 2022 1:15 pm Today the Republican party offers nothing constructive.

I also still strongly suspect that the continuing contention is a corporate-friendly divide-and-conquer campaign to drive wedges between the masses so the People can't unite to resist oppression from higher up. Race, gender, orientation, region.....it seems that any and every difference between us is being exploited to divide us, which keeps us weak.

Re: Why the republicans are destined to fail
Post #54All the News ever talks about is how Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. American Democracy is only about how Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. American culture is only about how Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. The purpose of existence is to contemplate the sacred feud: Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. Go into all the world and proclaim the solemn word: Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. From sea to shining sea: Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. Oh say can you see, Republicans and Democrats don't like each other. Every time a doctor slaps a newborn's butt, tell it, Republicans and Democrats don't like each other.
I prefer Coca-Cola

Re: Why the republicans are destined to fail
Post #56Ha ha, I dare not presume to remedy this sacred feud. I'd be crucified upside down for blasphemy, sacrilege, and terrorism. I pledge allegiance to the Republicans and Democrats mutual hatred of each other.

Re: Why the republicans are destined to fail
Post #57People can be stupid. But as the last few elections have shown, it isn't a sure thing to assume that they will be.nobspeople wrote: ↑Mon Feb 07, 2022 9:14 am I was assured that when donny trump ran, he wouldn't win: "people aren't that stupid!" I was told.
The person who told me that would eat their words, almost twice.
So to claim "Republican’s will lose the midterms and the General Election because they are following a one liner going nowhere." is nice to believe, people can surprise you.

.....except that when the Dems had the chance to vote the Senate filibuster away and pass serious gun legislation, they backed down.

Post #60The Dems moved to the right when the Reaganites were winning everything.

I've always said politics is a pendulum, and feel this hard right / Gilead swing is what will turn the pendulum back.
The R's are starting to splinter over extremist policies and a diversifying population. If the D's don't resort to their historical weakness, gains can be had.
The economy can't continue it's oppressive trajectory much longer. Folks are getting increasingly irate at working for crumbs. I see a huge reckoning within twenty years.
