Good riddance.


Your post gives a clue as to why this may be happening.
When you demonize the opponent with false smears and hateful rhetoric and all the while embrace absolutely nutty positions on issues (abortion on demand with no restrictions, allowing biological males to compete against women, restricting speech, defunding the police, etc.), expect reasonable people to run away from you. Now, you might say that ALL Democrats don't embrace the positions listed - but how many Democrats have spoken out against them?

Well said.

Remnant racist Dixiecrats if anything.

Democrats in the Louisiana House have lost another member, the second party switch in less than a month amid a yearslong decline in Democratic electoral fortunes.

Republicans in the state House recently gained a supermajority – a crucial threshold for overriding vetoes and passing tax measures – because another Democrat, Rep. Francis Thompson of Delhi, switched to the GOP. In that case, the state GOP held a press event touting the news.


Both were DINOS. Good riddance of garbage.


You are one of the main contributors to Trump’s win. Voters were turned off by your orthodoxy, so we lost.


Evangelical right wing racists and misogynists are responsible for Trump's won as well as Palestinian- Americans who were so naive (and stupid) to believe trump actually have a flip about them.


Sure, there were many contributing factors to Trump's 2024 victory but the very obvious primary factor was the unprecedented circumstance of an incumbent POTUS seeking a second term and then backing out of the race just 3 months prior to Election Day. Combine the actions of that historically unpopular incumbent with the fact that the incumbent party was left with little choice but to nominate the unpopular incumbent's VP and you have a situation where the incumbent party has zero chance of winning; even against a relatively weak opponent.

Biden paved an easy path for Trump to win a second term. It's as simple as that. Overthinking something this obvious is counter-productive.

These newbies to politics don't have an understanding of how quickly momentum shifts from one party to the other when there is poor leadership at the top. We have seen these momentum shifts on a regular basis since 2016. Anyone who thinks the GOP will maintain momentum through 2026 and 2028 doesn't have a clue.

Exactly.

Most of the South are Jerry Falwell type supremacists who follow The Moral Majority (they’re neither).

Now, you might say that ALL Democrats don't embrace the positions listed - but how many Democrats have spoken out against them?

Well said.


So all Dems are complicit because they haven't spoken out enough?

How many Republicans have spoken out against Trump's corruption (crypto scams, being gifted private luxury jets, pay-to-play access at Mar-A-Lago, racking up millions in excessive charges on taxpayer-funded golf trips to his own properties, Trump Hotel and other emoluments)?

By your logic you endorse third world banana-republic style corruption, because we don't hear you speaking out against it.

How many Republicans have spoken out against Trump's trampling of Constitutional protections and habeas corpus by having gangs of masked thugs who refuse to identify themselves kidnapping, or attempting to kidnap people off of American streets (including in some cases citizens with Real ID and people with legal status to be in the US) and shipping them off to concentration camps and places like war-torn southern Sudan, without due process? What if it were you or one of your family members, and before you say "oh but they couldn't do that to ME because I'm a citizen!" it actually very well could be since they are suspending due process and normal means of recourse and are lying outright, "we think your Real ID is fake!"

By your logic you endorse stripping people of constitutional rights and due process, including citizens, because we don't hear you speaking out against it.

How many Republicans have spoken up about Trump's fiscal policies - how his tax cuts will add three trillion to the debt and make billionaires who don't need the money richer as it piles more burden on the working class, while also cutting medicare and other things that the elderly, disabled and other Americans depend on? While cutting the VA which millions of veterans depend on? While cutting SNAP which tens of millions of low-income families depend on? While cutting scientific research and other strategic investments that have made the US a world leader? While gutting our entire system of soft power abroad, leaving power vacuums around the globe for China, Russia and other people who would gladly see the US crushed and burning?

By your logic, you fully and whole heartedly endorse every single piece of this, because we don't hear you speaking out against it.

How many Republicans have spoken up about Project 2025? And before you say "that's not a thing and Trump has nothing to do with it" that's already been proven false. Of the 313 agenda items laid out in Project 2025, as of now, end of May, 98 have already been implemented, and 68 are currently in progress. How many Republicans have spoken up about the utter chaos of Trump's dysfunctional and disorganized and contradictory tariff policies and how those have roiled the markets and are costing American businesses countless billions?

I could go on and on and on with all of the bad policies that Republicans have been silent on and by your logic you fully endorse every last bit of it - because as a bloc, Republicans are to afraid and too cowardly to admit even the most glaring of inconvenient truths about Trump.


Kinda shows how unpopular the Democrats' ideas and policies were/are for the Republicans/Trump to win the presidency.


That's a non-responsive reply. Go back, read again, and respond about the REPUBLICAN policies listed here as examples.


I'm agreeing the Republican policies are terrible. Yet they won.

Yeah, it's at the Louisiana state level so it doesn't broadly matter. If Louisiana voters think a GOP supermajority is going to make their lives better, good luck with that.
