It’s not about being young or intelligent. It’s not about being attractive, articulate, or funny, either.  
 

It’s about their beliefs in what our country should be. That’s where I disagree with VP Harris. I like the Dallas Cowboys... but that’s just an opinion that I hold and it really has no effect on the grand scheme of things. Too many voters from both sides treat candidates like their favorite athletes-they can’t really explain (or maybe they try) but their loyalty is endless. Every Sunday a couple of people fight it out in the parking lot at NFL games over trivial BS. That’s kinda what we see in politics, too. 
It’s not that I dislike VP Harris simply because she’s a Raiders fan or whatever. 
I dislike her positions on tax increases, the environment, social justice, wealth redistribution, reparations, abortion, defunding the police, illegal immigration, student loan forgiveness, universal basic income, etc... 

If you agree with her positions on those issues, then by all means... she’s the candidate for you. But don’t fall into the cult (like so many Trumpers have) of just blindly supporting a leader because you like THEM. 

On a side note, I think there’s something attractive about Kamala.

6.5/10- would smash. 

Yeah. I would bump it up to a 7 even.

The spiral began before Trump was ever inaugurated!  The Dimwits were never going to give him a chance.   Did you forget about the Dimwit lawmaker saying they would impeach the m’fer before he was ever sworn in?  I’m sure with your selective memory you did. So, who really caused the spiral?

Just curious... How does calling everyone who disagrees with you an insulting name help the situation?  Everybody is "Dim" or a "Demoncrat" or a "Libtard"

or something. 

Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of people who earn an individual insult, but we've got to move beyond blanketing everybody with whom we disagree.

He's been making a lot of sense. I'm not suprised that he's getting some pushback from the right. But someone needs to be in the middle.

After the next four years, maybe the token will not be considered the worst ever!

If you are referring to President Obama, he was elected two terms. Has one of the highest rating among former presidents. And Trump?

It’s a pendulum.... it’s just swinging away from trump towards the left... if it swings violently left, it’ll go even further right the next time. 
 

I’ve watched both sides lose all three branches several times in my lifetime. We (on the right) might not enjoy the next few years, but the America voters are fickle and this era, too, will pass. 

I agree.

Obama did a great job. He’s made it to where my health insurance and healthcare cost is much greater than my mortgage.

Trump did more for the economy and putting America first than obama could manage to do.

Until COVID came along a year before election.  That was convenient for the Dems.  Helped push mail-in balloting to the forefront, the reason Trump lost.

Ain’t it funny how it is considered terrorism when members of congress are surrounded, but people watching while their stores and businesses are being looted and burned down, those perpetrators are considered peaceful and have a right to do it?

That really makes me sick too. Both sides were touting how it was a travesty that legislators lives were at risk. What about the people they work for!

Everyone on here...Left, Right or Center should be pissed about that.

I beg to differ

It ll swing back to the right less than it did before.

when it swings left it swings further each time.
It’s a slow progress but it’s progress on the worldly side of things

abortion

gay lesbian heshes shehes 

Welfare And unemployment (has been misused for along time) Crippling affect of the able body and the psyche as well.

commercials on kids channels

etc

There is numerous reasons but the one that sums it all up is society is falling more and more away from God. As each year passes less people even attend church regularly.

Family structure 

family environment 

community 
in Philippians Paul says to be of one accord, one mind......

 

And due to that people have elected such people to positions who are worldly(judges, Congress, senators and down to state and local govt.)

I was hoping that was your answer. Because that’s the truth. It’s what is supposed to happen.

I couldn't agree more.  I was just typing something similar when I saw this.  I'm not saying what happened yesterday is ok, but I have no sympathy towards those sorry politicians.  They didn't care one bit about the common man that they work for or for the police that they are trying to defund, but since they were scared yesterday it's terrorism and they need those police.
