No one does here. Somehow he must think he has a collection of the most moderate Dems ever here, and that it just so happens almost all the Trump voters here are all in on the most insane shit. What used to comprise sane Republicans, he now labels fake.
Someone like San who is a small business man in a super high tax state. He’s a fake conservative. Only the nutjobs here who believe it’s all some globalist agenda and there was widespread voter fraud are the actual conservatives. But the left is fucked because of this imaginary army you find only on twitter or in a few super liberal cities and that average about 25 years old and run exactly nothing are to be feared, while the Republican Party being fully radicalized and averaging about 50 and actually run and own shit are no big deal.

On 9-month abortion rights, where Buttigieg defends his support of legalizing abortion at ANY TIME in the pregnancy (even moments before birth), without threat to the mom's life, as long as a doctor rubber-stamps it:
https://www.newsweek.com/pete-buttig...w-line-1538231Pete Buttigieg: These hypotheticals are set up to provoke a strong emotional reaction
Chris Wallace: These aren't hypotheticals — there are 6,000 women a year who get an abortion in the third trimester.
Pete Buttigieg: That's right, representing less than one percent of cases a year.. So, let's put ourselves in the shoes of a woman in that situation. If it's that late in your pregnancy, that means almost by definition you've been expecting to carry it to term. We're talking about women who have perhaps chosen the name, women who have purchased the crib, families that then get the most devastating medical news of their lifetime, something about the health or the life of the mother that forces them to make an impossible, unthinkable choice. That decision is not going to be made any better, medically or morally, because the government is dictating how that decision should be made.
Leftists seem to have enjoyed sharing the above:
The comments have resurfaced on social media, with some Twitter users praising Buttigieg and sharing a partial transcript of the 2019 town hall. One tweet featuring the exchange was retweeted nearly 30 thousand times. The remarks were later shared by actor Meredith Salenger, a critic of the president, whose tweet racked up nearly 12 thousand shares.
For the slow kids here, Mayor Pete was saying that no woman would choose to murder her about-to-be-born baby because it's "the most important decision of their lifetime", so we shouldn't have laws against it.
The leftists kept sharing this as if it was an amazing quote shutting down all opposition to laws permitting 9-month abortion, but as everything is with Mayor Pete, it's all smoke and mirrors. The women who "picked out a name and bought cribs" aren't the ones getting the late term abortions, for the most part. These abortions are typically done by women whose life circumstances suddenly change -- such as the broke 22-year-old whose boyfriend abruptly left her at the 7-month mark of the pregnancy.
Anyway, obviously this isn't a fringe position, if Mayor Pete said it, and if social media erupted sharing this.
Also, how is it a fringe position if it's already LEGAL in multiple blue states?
But don't worry, guys. Mayor Pete points out that it's only 1% of all abortions, so we're not allowing the murder of a LOT of fully-formed babies, only some fully-formed babies. No big deal!
Next let's do cashless bail.
It already exists in NYC.
California tried to make it STATE LAW in a 2020 proposition. The proposition lost, but still got over 43% YES votes. Guess which political party those 43% were part of?
But yeah, super duper fringe position which doesn't define today's left.
Next, let's do "allowing cities to be destroyed by rioters while police are ordered to do nothing".
You guys realized this happened lots of times in 2020, right? You realize the first big riot of 2020 -- Minneapolis -- this is exactly what occurred, right?
You guys realize the mainstream media did not criticize these decisions at all, with very few exceptions, right?
This even happened in Kentucky, where Democrat Mayor Greg Fischer gave a stand down order during violence related to Breonna Taylor protests: https://www.courier-journal.com/stor...es/3359742001/
Same thing in Los Angeles, New York, even Kenosha.
Totally fringe stuff, though. Not a Democratic position at all.
Next let's do transgender kids.
Let's take our incoming President.
The idea that an eight-year-old child or a 10-year-old child decides you know, I decided I want to be transgender. That's what I think I'd like to be. It'd make my life a lot easier. There should be zero discrimination.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-t...iscrimination/
There should be "zero discrimination" guys, against 8-year-olds who want to transition. Gotta respect those 8-year-olds who want to mutilate their bodies!
Totally fringe though. Only said by the President of the United States for 2021 and beyond.
The funny thing is that I don't even think Creepy Joe believes that.
I think he just said it because he needed to excite his woke base, and he knows that position is popular with so many Democrats that it wouldn't push many away from his own party.
Let's face it. You guys have turned into extreme, science-denying nutjobs who put feelings and performative wokeness over everything else. This is the party which made xenophobia the #1 issue of February 2020, instead of worrying about COVID!
Don't make me start posting those quotes.
It's okay to admit that your party has gone off the deep end and needs to be reclaimed. It's very cute how all of you pretend that you don't believe these crazy positions are held by the vast majority of your party at this point, much of it through woke social pressuring.
Social media erupting. 30k retweets is nothing. Dude is a national figure. I will concede there is 30k leftists of the extreme variety.
Omg, social media erupting. This washed up actor got over 14k retweet’s for this, a month after the damn election. Kevin Sorbo must really be powerful.

Answer why there are half a dozen nutjobs here on your site that spout shit just as crazy as Trump. That’s how prevalent the insanity is. You don’t have to go search for it. It’s everywhere.
BCR, that quote was shared everywhere. It was pounding me from every angle on Facebook and Twitter. That's how I know it exists. Do you think I was watching a Mayor Pete interview with Chris Wallace?
I'm not saying every Democrat supports laws permitting 9-month-abortion. I'm saying that it's widely accepted in the party at this point, by enough people to where it's no longer even close to fringe.
As I said, multiple states actually allow this already, so clearly it's not just a few AOC-loving nutjobs supporting the position.
Basically a lot of Democrats want you to be able to kill a baby minutes away from being born, provided you can find a doctor to sign off that the mother's "health" is impacted -- even if it's just something like depression.
They want to put the decision to murder a fully formed human being in the hands of an insane mom and a money-grubbing doctor who will do anything that won't get his license revoked.
"Trust a woman and her doctor, no matter what."
Fuck no.
This is today's Democratic Party. The woke contingent has taken over the messaging, and the liberals are being browbeaten out of prominence. Joe Biden is the last gasp of the old liberal guard, and he's only there because the DNC knew he had the best shot to unseat Trump.
is anyone actually reading druffs posts at this point?

You think I’m reading Kevin Sorbo’s twitter?
Your party is majority radicalized to misinformation. It’s across every platform, your forum included. There are many leftist extremists. Not even approaching the nutjob contingent on the right.
I’m of the opinion abortion is horrible at 1 month or 9. You have the Supreme Court. Guess what they won’t do? Overturn roe v wade. Far too useful to use at as a wedge issue to keep gullible Christians in their camp rather than simply overturn it.
