[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm with you on crime and the border. I'm a lifelong Democrat and I think the party is absolutely insane on these issues. I actually 95% agree with Trump and the Republicans on the border (although I also believe that they're not that interested in coming up with a constructive solution, since it's a good issue to weaponize). Asylum is a complete joke and needs to be tightened to the point that 99% of the people currently claiming asylum can no longer use it as a backdoor.

My most left wing views:

Abortion should be legal up to the point of birth everywhere in the country. I am okay with having a federal law that requires a medical reason/doctor sign-off after the beginning of the third trimester, but that's the only limitation I think is reasonable. It doesn't happen on an elective basis after that point anyway. [Abortion is the reason I will never ever vote R. I'm a single issue voter on this.]

We need to cease funding, supporting, and enabling Israel as a bedrock principle of foreign policy. We definitely should call for a ceasefire and stop supplying military aid to Israel right now. I would prefer to just cut off our support entirely, but at minimum we need to authorize aid/military support separately and on a one-off basis as needed and debated in Congress each time.

Church and state should be completely, totally separated. There should be no accommodations for religion in the public/governmental sphere. [b]I would like us to adopt the French model of separation.[/b]

Does that mean we would get these holidays the French do: Easter Monday, Ascension Day, Whit Monday, Feast of the Assumption, and All Saints Day?[/quote]

No. I'm fine with going further than the French do on this. [/quote]
