The Liberals keep moving further left - Going from being reasonable Socialists to out and out Communists.

President Donald Trump - The man who wanted to 'make America great again', his way and accrding to his political beliefs,
did have a chance.
There’s much I don’t like about Trump, but my choices are: vote for Biden, waste my vote on a third-party candidate, or not vote at all. Either Trump or Biden will be our next president, and I prefer Trump over Biden. The lesser of two evils, like everyone I vote for.

If people are going to vote for liberals after all the lies and what they put this country through, something is seriously wrong with their minds.
Delusional, I guess liberals like the swamp.
DELUSIONAL - How many people has Trump hired and fired since being President? - Just like his TV game show
- your fired!
And how many are in jail ? - Like his own personal lawyer Michael Cohen, or.......
Paul Manafort - Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org › wiki › Paul_Manafort
FCI Loretto. Notes. Paul John Manafort Jr. (/ˈmænəfɔːrt/; born April 1, 1949) is an American former lobbyist, political consultant, lawyer, and convicted felon of tax and bank fraud. A long-time Republican Party campaign consultant, he chaired the Trump Presidential campaign team from June to August 2016.
And don't forget Roger Stone:
Again from Wikipedia
Roger Jason Stone[a] (born Roger Joseph Stone Jr.; August 27, 1952) is an American conservative political consultant,[3] lobbyist, author, and convicted felon. In November 2019, subsequent to the Mueller Report and Special Counsel investigation, he was convicted on seven counts, including witness tampering and lying to investigators. On February 20, 2020, he was sentenced to 40 months in federal prison.
Hell, he's drained the swamp and replaced it with a cesspool
Unless you want to tell us it's all part of a vast Liberal conspiracy to 'frame' people connected with Donald Trump?
You can stay in your Conservative delusional World up to election day - But Trump is going to lose and probably lose big.
What I'm afraid of is all this corruption is going to give the Liberals too much power
You see Liberals are not corrupt - But being the righteous bastards many of them are, and if they win both the
Presidency and Congress, We, we who believe in the United States and its Constitution are also going to lose
- We will lose the United States and the Constitution
It’s very different for all Americans because of immigration, not because of African Americans, who’ve comprised anywhere from 10-13 percent of our population since 1870.

A bloody civil war could erupt if the radical Left keeps pushing its agenda.
A bloody civil way HAS erupted.
It's the blood of the many more births attributed to People of Color. Conservatives are predominately of one ethnic region. The Left, predominately People of Color, from many ethnic regions.
Conservatives awash with the taste of defeat, once again. Will they ever the learn the world is Progressive.
It might be inevitable given how deeply divided we are.
It is a minority that are 'divided'. And their numbers dwindle with every dawn that breaks. 40 years from now, America will be a very different place for conservatives.
Very different indeed.
Did you miss my thread about black-on-white violent crime stats? Any rationale, honest person reviewing DOJ interracial crime stats can see that blacks violently victimize whites by a 5.5-to-1 ratio — about 550,000 times in 2018 versus 95,000. That’s for rape, sexual assault, aggravated assault and robbery. The homicide and nonnegligent manslaughter ratio isn’t quite as bad: 3.4-to-1. You gotta stop kidding yourself that black people are victims in America. They do so much better here compared to any black-majority nation with the possible exception of the Bahamas. I have so many stats from credible sources to support my position. But none of it ever changes the minds of liberals or progressives.

I Am Irish/Hawaiian/Portuguese ethnicity. Basically a mutt mix of some severely pooped on races. I am very right leaning.
Welcome to life as a Unicorn on the wrong side of history.
Racism is only a thing because people want something from nothing and are ashamed to admit their own failures.
So white cops pulling over black drivers to harass/beat them is that fault of blacks because they want something from nothing?
Racism is a thing because of ignorance. Period.
How about you actually set your mind on changing the status quo by setting an example rather than getting high and drunk and complaining about how the world doesnt cater to you.
Don't drink.
Love getting high.
Don't complain.
I cook, so don't need catering.
Chickens are coming....
I don’t know if anything can heal the divide at this point. I could possibly vote for a compromise candidate, but it seems to me conservatives are much more willing to compromise than the Left. And voting for a third-party candidate is a total waste. The only way it can affect an election is by denying votes to either the Republican or Democratic candidate.

I have no idea who the next president will be. Anything can happen in the next four months.
I see parallels between the United States and the late Roman Republic. The imperial era was preceded by instability caused by civil wars and political power struggles. We’re becoming more and more destabilized by our own relatively bloodless civil wars and the impasse caused by an almost perfect balance of power between left and right. Neither side can govern effectively.
A bloody civil war could erupt if the radical Left keeps pushing its agenda. The radicals believe their time has come. But if the heavily armed right feels threatened enough, there could be a very one-sided bloodbath. I also see parallels with the Spanish Civil War; radicals and reactionaries ruthlessly killing each other.
It’s not hard to imagine a dictatorship replacing our republic in the near future. It might be inevitable given how deeply divided we are.
Honestly imo, it needs to be an independent libertarian. Someone like Jo Jorgenson. We as a collective need to get past the bipartisanship of it all. Find a middle ground. Stop the whole left vs right mentality and start thinking about what benefits our country as a whole regardless of partisanship ideals.
I have this growing feeling of dread you may be right. For more than 50 years they’ve undermined the traditional values that made America so good for so many. We have the power to stop them utterly, to destroy them. We have the guns but are too decent to use them. Hundreds of millions of firearms and trillions of rounds of ammo. And the skill and confidence to use them. It was an extreme Leftist (and nationalist), Mao Zedong, who said political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. He was right.

It's not a liberal takeover.
It is a Marxist takeover.
At this stage, it is impossible to stop. The people who know what is coming are preparing - ensuring that they are not targets. They are drifting into the shadows because they need to keep themselves and their families safe.
The people who are really going to regret what is coming are those conservatives that still think that the Marxists are not going to win in November and those moderates and real liberals who are so anti-Trump they don't know what they are ushering in.
America is already gone, some already know it, others will find out the hard way.

Trump is also a true Republican, and even though he gave in to the stimulus money - you could bet that he and the
rest of the Republican Pary were not happy to do so.
No elected official seems to give a damn about national debt. We’re leaving a mountain of it to our children and grandchildren. Servicing it will eventually consume so much of the budget there won’t be enough to pay for existing programs, let alone new ones.

I totally agree with this.
True Republicans talk about keeping spending and debt in check but instead blow money just like the drunken slobs that they are. They haven't found a whore they aren't willing to make it rain dollars on, bless their small government hearts.

WHAT NATIONAL DEBT OWED TO WHO
Yes, as an emergency measure this can be helpful. But it also has consequences in the the long term. Kicking the can, so to speak. Certainly not a fiscally conservative point of view.
We will not let the economy collapse we will just print more money.
