[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not the most political person in the world but when forced to answer, I lean conservative. I'm for lower taxes, controlled immigration, I don't want to see taxpayer money go to abortions and I support our troops and I'm a Christian. But to some people on the north or should I say FAR LEFT side of the Potomac, I'm the Devil. I have friends who are liberals and Democrats and we get along just fine, as I said, I'm just not that obsessed with politics. I voted for Trump in 2016 but he was not my first choice and I don't love everything about him. I think career politicians who spend too much time in DC are out of touch with reality - ON BOTH SIDES - and that a change in leadership was a good thing. My husband and I have lived all around the DC suburbs for twelve years. We now own property in outer Alexandria, but as recently as one year ago we lived in Silver Spring and GOD HELP US. Maryland "Progressives" are so radically intolerant and hostile I couldn't wait to move. (The commute is better now, too). Trump is "the bully" but a kid in a MAGA hat gets beat up. Teachers turn a blind eye on students who skip school to go protest. Their brillo-haired Congressman, Jamie Raskin, made it his first priority in office to try to arrange a coup to overthrow our democratically elected President. The Governor Larry Hogan would be a Democrat in any other state, but to people in the DC suburbs in Maryland, he's Satan, and they just nominated a far-left Bernie Sanders puppet plus racial agitator to go against him. They used to have a liberal Republican congresswoman Connie Morrella, who was forced out by one leftist replace by extreme leftist Raskin who is really dangerous in my opinion. And now you have Montgomery County electing a far, far, far-left socialist former SDS member, Elrich, as its next County Executive??? Are you kidding me? If Nuclear-Free, Sanctuary, Vegan-Organic Takoma Park elects to become a protectorate of Cuba or Venezuela, will the rest of Montgomery and Prince George's County follow suit? Half of their government is from Takoma Park anyways, so essentially Venezuela would rule Montgomery County, and it sounds like people would be ok with that. So my question is, Why is this? When and why did Maryland-DC suburbs, especially Montgomery County, embrace a one-party leftist dictatorship? 30-40 years ago, Maryland was a moderate Southern state with hospitality and politeness. Now its a leftist run-amok. And there's some irony here, because they are missing an opportunity to have some common ground dialogue with people like me - I'm for gun safety, for example. I don't believe that we should have guns in schools and I think there should be background checks - but ironically, if I walked through downtown Silver Spring with Trump paraphernalia, I'd be shot. [/quote] A kid in a MAGA hat gets beat up = all liberals are insane and intolerant. Gotcha. And you'd get shot wearing Trump paraphernalia, sure. HELP! THE LIBS ARE "RUNNING AMOK". Please tell me how exactly Raskin is "dangerous". Did he, for example, conspire with Russians to win his election? [/quote]
