We want exactly the same things. Unfortunately, human failings necessitate government when attempting to accomplish these goals.I just want to live my life and be happy. I want the same for other people. Government is too involved in everything. It may be necessary, but it shouldn't be so invasive. On some things, I side with the right. On other things, I side with the left. Because of that, I can't say I lean anymore one way than the other. The biggest problem with politicians is they put themselves and/or their party above the country. Politics has become about personal gain, personal victories, and left behind the idea of service to country.
Likewise. Always wanting someone else to do the work. Do you not care enough to even spend 5 minutes?
Aren't you even a tad bit curious?
Paul Ryan: Trump made "textbook definition of a racist comment"
House Speaker Paul Ryan delivered a harsh rebuke of the recent comments made by presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump about an Indiana-born judge with Mexican heritage who is presiding over a lawsuit about Trump University. Ryan said he "disavows" Trump's comments and that they are "the textbook definition of a racist comment." Ryan, who recently endorsed Trump, said he still believes Trump is the better choice over presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
We can just start with one of the most recent.
wow. i am deeply sorry for anyone who thinks this way about either party. truly saddening that we have traded freedom for dependency.Nothing easier than claiming you don't like politicians, but that kind of ignores the fact that they are necessary.
Which party most aligns with your top ten weighted priorities and who are a couple of people you would least hate seeing as the face of that party?
Approval Rates:
Iihan Omar: 9%
AOC: 22%
An anonymous Democratic group leaked a poll that shows swing voters deeply dislike Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the left wing, widening the party's rift .
You guys see why Trump Dog-Whistled everyone?
Good lowered, so you have a problem with Trump but welcome nasty vile people like Pressley and Omar?I am perfectly happy with them being a part of the many faces of the party.
Unlike the republican party, the democratic party does not have ONE FACE.
Do you like Trump being the face of your republican party?
I'm still amazed how many people didn't catch on ... Trump spun the squad up ... again, and Nancy has a bunch of lunatic kids throwing a tantrum and a fanatical left wing to deal with. If she supports them, she loses the sane Dems; if she goes after them, she angers the left wing. And people think Trump doesn't know what he's doing. It's called divide and conquer, and Trump's playing it like a puppet master. While Nanny's trying to get the kindergarten under control, Trump's doing business as usual; and the Dims are too fractured to counter.
Trump is a gaslight factory. He wants people to react in an over-exaggerated demo-gauge way. It plays right into the narrative that these people are nuts. It also plays into the narrative that AOC is the true leader. Where was Nancy Pelosi? Why didn't she back them up right away?
I truly wonder if Trump actually believes the **** he says? His policy versus his rhetoric are quite different.
