Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ???

I am loyal to an idea and the Dems do not share that same idea.
What if your idea is advanced by moderation and compromise and the only way to achieve that is to occasionally cross over?

I know your immediate reaction will be to claim that that would never be the case, but whe the alternative is increased extremism on both sides with increased stagnation, anger, and division.....whcih actually gets you closer to that "idea"?

I don't compromise my beliefs and do not see how my beliefs can be advanced thru compromise. Compromise only dilutes my beliefs.

I'm a conservative and nothing is "extreme" about that.

Sometimes the only way to advance your beliefs is through compromise. Evidetnly there are millions who don't get that.

You saying you do not compromise simply means that you do not believe in being pragmatic or incremental moves forward by giving on one issue in order to gain something else.

Trump in the White House and conservatives in control of both houses of Congress I believe many solutions to solve many problems the Dems have created can be found.

I cannot see any incremental good that would come by me voting for a Dem.

I saw no incremental good in the debt ceiling Mccarthy signed with the Dems. Dems got pretty much all they wanted and I saw really nothing for conservatives worth anything.

Trump and his first Congress passed the bump stock ban.

And you ignore the idea that there may actually be common ground with some (obviously, not all) people on the other side of the aisle. And you also ignore the incremental advances that the left has been able to achieve since the 1960s... or especially since 1992.

I can sort of agree with that, but again, McCarthy got placed where he was because of exactly what you are endorsing here, which is maintaining party loyalty. The GOP outsiders were the main ones standing against McCarthy's nomination.

There are millions who believe that one party has "compromised" too much. To the left compromise means agreeing with their non sense. We are past that.
 
I'm not following the logic here. Two of those guys aren't running, and Desantis may very well be the primary winner.
Which 2? I know Bolton and Pompeo have thrown the idea out there in recent months. Who else are you talking about?
 
He’s a crook too.
I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but have you ever looked at a man and just think I don't trust that guy? For me Pence has always been one of those guys that I just don't trust.
Speaks with a soft voice but looks like evil when you look him in the eye.

He’s deep in the pharmaceutical industry and assigned his buddy from Eli Lily to lead the coronavirus task force and assured everyone he would keep the emergency going.
 
On the one hand he is spoken about ending the wars but on the other hand made a gaffe with regards to the support of Israel about 3-4 weeks ago.
indeed. It’s horrible that an American politician expresses support for Israel.

Sarcasm aside, I would rather we had politicians that showed a more zeal and support for America than Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan, the EU, etc...

The only major party candidate in memory that hasn't promised unconditional love to Israel is Sanders.
