[quote=Anonymous]I don’t begrudge anyone that reluctantly voted for Trump because they didn’t like the direction Democrats have been going in recent years.

Progressives have done a lot that most people disagree with - open borders for illegal migrants, their unwillingness to put violent men in prison, destroying public schools with their permissiveness toward bullies and disruptive students, imposing racial preferences in hiring and promotions, their disdain for those who are religious, their extremism on trans issues, and their scorched earth cancel culture towards anyone that might raise an objection to progressive priorities.

I’m what I guess you’d call an Obama Democrat. Pretty common sense. And I think Democrats completely lost the plot in recent years. I still voted for Harris, but I totally understand those who used their vote to stop the bleak identity politics and dumbassery of Democrats in recent years.

However, I cannot abide anyone that is enthusiastically MAGA today. A lot of people voted against Democrats bc they hated what they were doing when they had power - not bc they liked Republicans. At that moment in time, many voters thought Democrats were the greater threat to the things they cared about.

Obviously today, Republicans are the bigger threat. And no doubt, their votes will change next time around.

But anyone that is enthusiastically for Trump today in late September has brain rot. And I cannot abide them.

It’d be awesome if we had at least one sane party that put forward a good presidential candidate that pursued good policies.

But here we are.[/quote]
