I have family members who are conservatives, but it's fine because they don't constantly shriek about politics. If they were the kind of people who treated every family gathering as a chance to vent about whatever thing the TV man told them to be mad about, yeah I'd cut them out because that's a**hole behaviour. You assume every conversation in my home is about politics. Dear Gawd...please stop making so many stupid people? Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

I haven't seen many criticisms but I haven't seen any fawning over her either. Mostly folks are just defending her against the bad faith attacks by magacultists like you. Personally I would appreciate a stronger stance on Israel/Gaza and commitments to reproductive rights and court reform. Edited August 20, 2024 by Black Dog 1 Quote

No I believe you would have lined up for any other generic Republican too. But you're a Canadian with literally no skin in the game so the idea that you are representative of GOP voters is as retarded as everything else you believe. Quote in reality, that's just projection.

Quote Dozens of protesters broke through a security fence near the site of the Democratic National Convention on its opening day Monday as thousands took to the streets to voice their opposition to the war in Gaza.

When I think back to the early stages of the primaries, I wasn't completely sure who I supported. I listen to a variety of podcasters on our side of the fence. Guys like Dave Rubin and Ben Shapiro were favoring DeSantis, and they were making a good case. In many ways, I think he is a far superior candidate to Trump. I think he is more professional. I think he has a better understanding of politics. I was actually leaning toward him at first. Also, Trump had already lost an election. Some younger people I listen to were more into Vivek. I like Vivek, but he is still kind of new to the game. Trump is a lot rougher around the edges than DeSantis or Ramaswamy, but I think it's the prosecutions that actually make me favor him. Whether you agree or not, a lot of us see the cases against Trump as very excessive. That in itself is not a reason to support him. I don't support Trump because of a rebellious reaction to the lawfare. It's more the fact that he basically walked into it. I don't think Trump is really even all that conservative. But he was willing to go through the fire. He could go to jail. I don't think that this was on the cards until he announced he was running. I am not sure Vivek or DeSantis would be willing to do that. Trump is very tough in a way. I mean, I don't think he would be tough in a street fight or anything like that. But he is pretty stubborn. That's why I think people like him. If lawfare is the game Democrats want to play with their political opponents, then you need someone who is going to take it.
