I did not vote for Trump in 2020 (first time I was old enough to vote in a presidential election) in either the primary or the general. However, I would say that I lean somewhat more his way than the way of old-school Rs.

There are some specific policies that I think need to be implemented. Regarding college, I think Parent Plus Loans, in particular, need to stop being given out completely, and Graduate Plus Loans need to have hard caps on how much can be given out. I think that for future students, student loan interest rates for federal loans should be increased.

I support American Exceptionalism. I want this country to prioritize increasing the birthrate, and to phase out DACA. Drastically increase marriage rates and decrease fatherlessness, which is the cause of so many of the issues we face today.


Really? This just makes the burden greater as young adults are starting out in the world. Seems like a 1% interest or no interest for solely educational use is the better, ore equitable way to go.


Nope, it would reduce tuition and force colleges to cut costs and jobs because students would be less willing to take out a gazillion dollars in loans.



Tuition is high because states stopped funding it.



Yes because universities started adding a bunch of ridiculous amenities and majors. Cut services and then I’ll support more funding.


What makes you qualified to decide what amenities and majors are ridiculous?

Do you think American society doesn't need arts and humanities majors?

This response reads more Boomer than Gen Z.


Like Archie Bunker - except in the end, Archie Bunker was actually a better person.

Major in whatever you want, but you shouldn’t be allowed to get government loans for those majors.

OP, to me it seems a key theme of the left is to defend the vulnerable and to punch up at the rich and powerful. The left looks out for the poor, for minorities, whether non-white, non-hetero, non-Christians and others, tries to help protect workers against exploitation, is pro-regulation to make sure products are safe, banks are trustworthy and so on, tries to protect the environment and things which affect the everyday person, while holding big corporations accountable and trying to tax the richest who got rich by exploiting the rest of us.

The right on the other hand tends to be the exact opposite, and more about punching down and protecting the rich and powerful, while punching down at minorities and the vulnerable, attacking migrants, blaming the poor for their poverty, attacking anyone who isn't like them.

As a Catholic, how do you reconcile all of these very un-Christlike behaviors of American conservatives?

Care to take a stab at a genuine answer?

Again, what makes you qualified to decide which majors merit funding and which don't?

As a Catholic, what is your proposed solution to the border crisis? Is your proposed solution aligned with the teaching of Jesus?

A wall, an end to birthright citizenship and only allowing permanent residents & citizens to attend public schools.

I believe that welfare and abortion contribute to fatherlessness.


I believe you are trolling.


I’m not. I think abortion is a cop out for fathers to not have to take care of their kid. They pressure women to get abortions. As for welfare, it should not be a better option than being a married couple.

This is a troll. Young women of independent mind do not say such things. MAGA daddy is talking.

Can you give some specific examples of where in Catholic teachings it says to turn away refugees and to not help the poor and the vulnerable?

The biggest irony of the "red pill" crowd is that the Red Pill was invented by the Wachowski sisters for The Matrix, and that the Wachowski sisters are trans women and represent the exact opposite of what the self-proclaimed "redpilled" are.

Op is not answering many of the questions. This is not a quality AMA.

How do you feel about the other seditious and treasonous elements in the GOP, like Paul Gosar, who has been tied to the J6 attack on the US Capitol?

Do you still believe the Trumpian narrative about "stolen election" and the repeatedly-disproven claims of massive widespread election fraud?

How do you feel about the GOP's continued ties to far right wing extremists like Proud Boys and Oathkeepers?

How do you feel about the GOP not disavowing any of these people?


Why can't you answer?

How does OP reconcile that as being a good thing for young conservative women?


Why was this one not answered? You're fine with having less access to OB/GYN healthcare?
