BeaverFever Posted January 8, 2022 Report Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) On 12/20/2021 at 1:00 PM, WestCanMan said: In a recent Axios poll which surveyed 850 college students across the USA (not a huge sample size IMO but whatever) they found that young people who identify as Democrats are completely prejudiced against those who identify as Republicans. Their poll found that: 71% wouldn't go on a date with a Republican [31% of Republicans wouldn't date a Dem either] 41% would boycott the business of a Republican [7%] 37% wouldn't be friends with a Republican [5%] 30% wouldn't work for a Republican [7%]. The poll never asked whether violence against supporters of the other party was ok but by the numbers it seems like they probably should have. This is the damage done by the Dems' constant lies about white people and police. The majority of Dem politicians are hate/fear mongers who are quite happy to incite violence in order to get votes. There are even TV show hosts on MSNBC (Joy Reid) and CNN (Don Lemon) who are openly racist against white people now. Joe Biden proclaimed for all to hear that he was going to be a president for all Americans but he hasn't done a thing to tone down the racism on the Dems' 24 hr 'news' channels or from the members of his government. Not like those open-minded inclusive non-partisan Republicans eh LMAO Just the usual hypocritical Republican bullshit where Republicans complain that Democrats aren’t compromising with them enough, meanwhile the Republican party has a long and established track record of publicly vowing to never work with or compromise with Democrats Mitch McConnell and John Boehner literally held a press conference in 2010 to publicly declare that they would obstruct all Democrat initiatives for no reason other than the sole partisan purpose of making Obama a 1-term president Edited January 9, 2022 by BeaverFever Quote

Republicans unilaterally ended bipartisanship and started dividing America during the final years of the Clinton administration with the launch of Fox News and the Monica Lewinsky scandal witch hunt. Democrats have been trying and failing to compromise with increasingly extremist Republicans ever since. When Obama was elected in a landslide he attempted to heal the nation’s division by inviting Republicans to form a White House advisory panel just as Abraham Lincoln did with his opponent to heal after the Civil War. Obama did this though he had just mopped the floor with Republicans in the election and owed them nothing. How DOD Republicans respond? They publicly announced a boycott of the advisory panel, publicly declared an eternal jihad on Obama and Democrats and threatened to primary any Republicans who cooperate with Obama. Oh and they also repeated their birther lies right through both of Obama’s terms….the birther lie was the Republicans Big Lie before the current election Big Lie, and after the Iraq war WMD/Al Qaeda Big Lie (Republicans tell a lot of Big Lies). Republicans have been stoking division and identity politics with the ginned-up culture war issues like the phoney “war on Christmas” anti-immigrant hysteria, anti-Muslim hysteria, anti-liberal hysteria, anti/BLM hysteria Republicans are the ultimate identity politicians because all of their opinions about events are not based on the facts of the event or on principles but instead on the identity of the people involved in that event, with the white conservative Christian male being at the top of your preferred identity hierarchy. Republicans have a long list of identities they despise (liberals, gays, immigrants, Muslims etc) whom they think don’t even deserve basic rights or fair treatment I don’t really care about your links to Republican propaganda blogs. You can’t prove Republicans are right with links to Republican sites any more than someone could prove Hitler was right by linking to Josef Goebbels speeches. Quote

suds Posted January 9, 2022 Report Posted January 9, 2022 There's a relatively small number of voters in the center (call them the real moderates if you want) that decide US elections. Polls taken from less than 2 years ago offer substantial evidence that if it wasn't for covid, Trump was on his way to win handily in 2020. Biden ran as a moderate (and uniter) which appealed to the moderates, but since taking office has been anything but. Biden's polling numbers on things that average americans really care about, such as covid, economy, crime, law enforcement, education, inflation, border/immigration, have tanked. Kamala Harris' polling numbers are even worse. Democrats are beginning to realize they're in big trouble. Not only are they losing the votes of those in the centre, they're losing support from hispanics and blacks which will not only affect the elections in 2022 and 2024, but for a generation to come. 10 years ago i could never envision anything like this happening. But it is happening, and right before our very eyes. And it's the democrats own doing. Those in the center who decide these elections aren't pleased. Quote
ironstone Posted January 9, 2022 Report Posted January 9, 2022 The real "Big Lie" of the 2020 election was that Joe Biden ran as a moderate that would work to unite the country. Based on the state of the economy and the radicals appointed by Biden, it's more like a Bernie Sanders administration. Not working out so well at all.

They'll leave commie Joe in for a while longer until all the dirty work is done. Then Joe gets the hook with a $50 million book signing deal with some publisher (fiction of course). Slide in Kamala who might be a tad better, or bring in a real moderate and hope the public doesn't realize they've just been played. Quote

Biden has the huge advantage of the MSM carrying him and covering for him. Not to forget having the tech giants firmly on his side helping so suppress his detractors. Inflation is happening all over the world, why would it only be Bidens fault? You guys need to understand that President is not a wizard who controls the economy. In fact compared to most heads of government and our own prime minister the POTUS is fairly weak since they have to get Congress to go along with anything. Besides unemployment is extremely low and wages are high and it’s a job-seeker’s market so there’s am upside too. Worker’s gains in income have exceeded inflation for most items. I get that it’s to your partisan advantage to pretend the economy is demonstrably worse than when Trump left office but overall they are same-to better depending on individual circumstances. Lastly the fact that his approval rating remains at Trump levels kind of proves the MSM and tech giant’s aren’t covering for him, it’s just more bullshit conspiracy theory. Quote

Trump's approval ratings (49%) were the highest in his 4 year term during the first 5 months of 2020. And this was in the midst of his first impeachment and the onset of covid-19. I'm not going to argue with you but it's obvious to me that he was on a roll and the democrats used the coronavirus to derail him. Didn't Biden promise to shut down the virus?

His approval tanked during covid because he horribly mismanaged it, got covid himself and started undermining the fight against covid and the experts while peddling quack cures like HCQ. Remember when we were only a couple weeks into the pandemic and Trump started demanding that if the governors don’t lift all their public health restrictions by Easter “he will overrule them”? The fucking idiot thought that the president is like a king of America who can overrule state governments on state maters. And then he said covid would go away all on its own in April with the warm weather.

By election time trump's approval rating was about 43% (6% lower) and the election was a lot closer than it looked. Trump had a chance of beating Biden even at 43%. In fact everything was close. The senate was a tie, and the republicans picked up a number of seats in the house. Quote

Perhaps conservatives don't realize just how tiresome it gets trying to communicate with people who can't seem to help but pepper just about everything they talk about with references to Bolshevism, commies, radicals and authoritarianism...its hopeless.
