Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
“I support Donald Trump for president. I’ve directly encouraged him to run and he gives me every indication he will,” Gaetz told the paper. “If Trump doesn’t run, I’m sure I could defeat whatever remains of Joe Biden by 2024.”
https://www.yahoo.com/news/rep-matt-...173710244.html Politics in America is truly, unfixably broken. We are being torn apart and steered by the far left and far right. Politicians just pander to their extremes. oh well .. was nice while it lasted. |

I disagree strongly. The far left isn’t exactly calling any shots. Trump, or the party of trump, or the far right - has the Republican party right in its pocket. The democratic party has not changed. Not anymore than normal incremental change. The republican party has completely hitched its wagon to one man. One man who lost the Whitehouse, Senate, and House like he lost umpteen million businesses. Good luck with that. |

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
That's the point they have left well enough alone within their party. They believe laws/policies/etc should differ/be enacted/etc according to ones group/race/tribe. They believed that in 1828 and they continue to believe the same thing (and act on it) today.

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
Identity politics on the left and personality cults on the right. Everyone in the middle loses.

I'd prefer a Tim Scott, Niki Haley or Marco Rubio. The fight right now in the Republican party is Reagan conservativism versus Trump populism. Those three would be better champions of the former. (And yes I know it looks bleak right now for the Reagan conservatives within the Republican party). |

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
When Obama embraced identity politics and the rise of pc culture during his administration gave you Trump.
Can’t help you if you can’t see the obvious
