[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There will be a massive disconnect with politicians and their voters in 20 years. When the 60+ crowd are gone, the dems will be panicking as to how to run more progressive campaigns rather than resenting anyone whose marginally more left than a conservative 10 years ago. The republicans will be great though.[/quote]

What?  
The Dems will adjust.  They believe in civil rights, rule of law, making the environment sustainable, women's rights, abortion rights.

The R's used to believe in fiscally conservative policies, state's rights, and ending abortion.

Now, their main unifying policy (abortion) is off the list, and they no longer believe in state's rights or fiscally conservative policies.

Neither policy has a clear vision for foreign policy.

In 20 years, the D's have something to build on / build up / build towards.

The R's have dismantled the entire government, made the tax structure unsustainable, and totally eliminated our leadership position in foreign policy.  They've made us an unreliable partner and even have brought into question whether we have or support rule of law.

In what way are the R's in a better position to have an agenda for the future?[/quote]

I don’t believe that the Democrats believe in women’s rights any more. [/quote]

Why?

And the R's who took away the right to choose do?  Really?  [/quote]

The Rs don’t believe in women’s rights either. But the Democrats have gone all in on destroying women’s rights as well. They have prioritized men at every turn. [/quote]

Pick your poison, though.  One of these parties leads towards continued free and fair elections, courts, and civil rights.  
One wants to end all of those American ideals.[/quote]

I don’t think the Democrats are the party of civil rights any more. I certainly don’t believe your hysteria.

Candidly I just don’t believe the Democrats on anything at this point. They lied about Biden’s health, as we can all see.

Trump and the GOP lie as well. But I never trusted them. Now I distrust the Democrats the same way I distrust the Republicans. [/quote]

Do you believe that Donald Trump tried to overthrow the election?[/quote]

Up until this debate, yes. But it’s now clear that the mainstream media has been shockingly deceptive in their reporting and now I am questioning everything. I don’t know what to think or who to trust as this point. [/quote]

But you saw it on TV.  It's clear that Biden is an 81 year old who has good days and bad days.  I wish that there was another candidate running.  But there's not.  There's no way I would vote for someone who tried to overthrow the US government.  I just wouldn't.  I am voting for him because I like what Biden is actually doing.  Not how he talks.  And I'm also voting against Trump because he hates the American people and doesn't believe that their votes matter.  Either one of those would be good enough reason for me to make my voice heard through voting.[/quote]

What I saw on TV was shocking. What I realized immediately is that the Democratic Party and the mainstream media have been actively suppressing and lying about the state of Biden and who is actually running our country. I’ve been lied to, as badly as the GOP has. And now I do not trust anything that I was told previously. [/quote]

There have been a lot of references to "who is really running the country" in this forum since the debate. I'm doing to know. Who [b]is [/b]actually running the country?[/quote]
