I have banned Republicans from my home game

[mickeycrimm]

I love how the same people who signed off on trickle down economics also say Dems only care about corporate interests. Let’s take a look at recent history:

Bush 1 hands a wrecked economy to Clinton, 8 years later Clinton hands a government in surplus to Bush 2

Bush 2 hands a wrecked economy to Obama, 8 years later Obama hands a well functioning economy to Trump who of course takes credit for it on day 1

Trump hands a wrecked economy to Biden ... starting to see a pattern? Republican “economics” is celptocracy.

A functioning economy puts money in all of our pockets.

Trumps economy was going gangbusters, strongest ever, until the Chi-Comms sabotaged it with covid. China Joe Biden is the Chi-Comm's bitch.

[BCR]

Druff made an argument for why someone might go from Democrat to conservative, but that’s nonsense here, and he knows she didn’t go from Democrat to Reagan Republican. The idea that Obama’s last two uneventful years would turn someone from Democrat to thinking Bill Gates is part of a plandemic to microchip us with Mike fucking Dewine and globalist elites for a worldwide socialist agenda is pure absolute cult gibberish.

The highlighted above is no different today. Did you jump several tax brackets or does skin colour affect you so much that you would turn your back on liberalism?

Libtards don't get that we stick with Trump because of fear of the lefty socialist revolution that will destroy the country like it has destroyed every other country it was tried in. And don't try to point out Scandinavia. Those countries are not socialist. They are market economies. The republican party without Trump is nothing more than democrat lite and will sell the middle class out.

Also, Obama wasn't lazy. He set the record for playing the most golf and basketball while president.

Do you realize that the American left is right of Canada's right and very much right of Scandinavia's ruling parties?

[big dick]

She’s talked about “crying out in despair” just a few days ago. She talked about depression multiple times. Alcohol abuse. She went through the radical God phase where she’d preach in one post and brag about her promiscuity in the next.

She was obviously radicalized into a cult in the same manner any cult indoctrinates new converts who find themselves at a psychological crossroads during a transitional period.

Trumpism is a pure cult. Disinformation overload, weird religious rhetoric, and now have moved into domestic terrorism and radicals funded by the Christian Right. Same as Middle East.

Nothing exciting or even hard to figure out. Just a standard garden variety radicalization.

Druff,

You have to understand, to smart people that don’t like Trump, almost all the other people we know also don’t like Trump and it’s hard for us to imagine that someone smart, like you, would support him. We don’t know ppl like that irl. So it’s easy for us to dismiss it all as hillbillies. Especially for people like me who has been all over this country but never Florida, never the South. It’s hard for us to comprehend, but we do notice that all the Rs up there defending Trump in the House and Senate all have Southern accents.

So, it isn’t so much that we are mislead by the media or stereotyping Trump voters as it is a defense mechanism to explain something we have trouble understanding.

I don't support Trump anymore. I don't think there's reason to impeach him, but I will agree his last two months in office were bad, and his refusal to accept defeat was embarrassing.

That doesn't change my politics. I'm still a conservative as I always have been, and I have no inclination to support Democrats, especially since their policies are almost 100% opposite of what I believe.

However, I find it amazing that the left can't see that they've created their own cult -- one with followers just as devoted as MAGA types -- and with a larger number of people.

I'm tired of arguing what splitthis was thinking when she switched parties, because I'm not in her head, and there's only so much I can say. She will have to elaborate.

I'm just saying that, in general, people switch parties all the time, and it's due to a variety of circumstances. As I said, this thread isn't any kind of gotcha, because she didn't ever claim to have been a lifelong Republican. Even Mumbles was once a Republican. I bet if we found his thoughts about Democrats in 1988, they wouldn't be very flattering.

[Walter Sobchak]

How is this some sort of gotcha?

We have guys like rum dick who say they were lifelong Republicans and moved to the left because of Trump, and everyone on Team Feelings applauded him.

Then it's found that split was a Democrat until Obama's antics pushed her right, and everyone's acting like this is some kind of major gotcha.

When did split ever claim to be a lifelong Republican? People change their politics. It happens. As long as you're honest about what you are now, I have no issue with people changing their views.

The only thing that annoys me is when someone moves to the other side and then continues to identify with their former party, while holding none of the ideology anymore. "Look, I'm a Republican, and I can tell you Trump is ruining this country!"

For me it's not a gotcha. But we were 3/4 of the way through Obama's presidency and she was calling out Republicans as ignorant hillbillies. So what did Obama do in the last 1/4 of his presidency to change her so radically, making her hate him and love Trump, and make herself into one of those ignorant hillbillies? What did he do in that last 1/4 that he didn't do in the first 3/4? The answer is: it's not him, it's her.

That was Obama's economy and Trump claimed credit for it. You're welcome.

the lefty socialist revolution that you've been warning about for 40 years but has never come even during Democratic presidencies? Watch out for the boogeyman!

[Sloppy Joe]

So Obama’s antics made Split think Republicans were no longer poor ignorant hillbillies? She also now supports using god, guns, and NASCAR to summon the idiot vote?

I can't speak for her, but I believe she realized that most Republicans being "ignorant hillbillies" was just propaganda from the left in order to claim the intellectual high ground.

She probably realized how full of shit the left was, and how hostile they really were toward working-class white people.

Trump won states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania in 2016 because the Democratic Party, Hollywood, and the media were basically telling the lower-middle-class whites there that they are privileged and need to feel guilty for how good they have it. That message didn't fly. Trump was good at speaking to these people, telling them he wasn't going to go along with this nonsense.

This is a delusional generalization that comes only from a steady diet of right wing propaganda.

While it influenced some, the main reason Trump had his four years because he ran against the most unlikable female who was vilified for reasons both fair and unfair. The gender piece is essential, because had it been a male candidate with Hilary's resume we wouldn't be here. Everyone with a semblance of objectivity knows this; the right wing media machine would not have been able to offset Trump's resume by juxtaposing it against a lifelong male politician with Hilary's credentials. Pair that with Trump's brand of trolling, celebrity and unique skillset to pump up life losers like Pockles and other breeds of trailer trash and you got yourself a president and new republican party.

Druff is a unique lemming, as he self-reported that he couldn't pull the trigger for Trump in 2016, but could after four years of demonstrated leadership and logic.

The fact that a large enough member of the populace wasn't as brainwashed is encouraging.

[big dick]

he like trumps policies

[splitthis]

It’s simple, when I used to abuse alcohol I was Democrat, clearly see things without substances now. BCR should try it.

Women were the ones who made the difference between 2016 and 2020.

Trump lost suburban women with his antics on Twitter and elsewhere. I know you love screaming "muh sexism" about Hillary's loss, but it wasn't about Hillary's gender. It was a variety of factors, some of which had to do with Hillary herself (her past, her personality) and some of which had to do with the new woke uprising which working class swing voters found obnoxious and exclusionary.

Even you, a smug Portland lib, occasionally admit that you've become exasperated at times with the growing woke wing of your party. (Of course, then you snap back into lemming mode, and insist that it only represents a tiny percentage of Democrats.)

So quitting alcohol made you lose 30IQ points off an already very average intellect? I mean, you think Mike Dewine, a fiscal conservative lifelong Republican known for privatization and furthering right wing ideology was in bed with a globalist socialist takeover to microchip people. That’s a retarded radicalized cult level idiocy. You’ve always been a depressive. You were a target for really dumb misinformation that anyone with an above room temp IQ would disregard, but it got you hook, line, and sinker.

End of story.

Of course it was gender, you fatuous blowhard.

Reading comprehension is right up there next to respect and integrity in terms of things you've lost recently.

I'm not Democrat and have voted all over until 2018. I think the party has serious, long term issues that are being helped by a GOP that has severed itself from reality.

I'm anti being retarded and don't vote for people who tell me to drink bleach.
