I think it is a mix of things: they always have been republicans/don’t want to believe how horrible the party is now, are not well informed/educated, don’t get or care are things on a large scale.
My mom is one of the most loyal, hardworking, will drop anything to help a friend, giving of her time to make sure town clubs are well run, etc - she definitely voted for Trump. She LOVES my Mexican bff. I finally broke down and told her that he is a DACA recipient. She literally cried at the thought of him getting deported. Not sure if that will change the larger picture for her.
She is very compassionate on an individual basis but has a hard time expanding that to the larger scale.
Frankly, we need many many more people like your mom.
Life is about living, not about politics.

What, you didn't really think s/he's a liberal shocked and dismayed to find out their friend is a Republican, did you?

This is one of many LEGAL ways to become a citizen.
Cudos to your mom. She recognizes the horrible situation, but still capable to recognize right from wrong. The proper legal way for your boyfriend is to follow the proper procedure for immigration. You can marry him and he will become a naturalized citizen in a lawful way.
That’s not the way naturalization works.
For people here illegally, it's very difficult or impossible to get citizenship that way.

My post is sincere. I think the modern GOP is basically evil so I am having a hard time understanding how someone can still be a Republican if they are a decent person.
Let me make a sincere reply.
Your friend is highly likely to be brainwashed by conservative media. They probably do not know about the healthcare, tax cuts for the super rich, and undermining of democracy. And if they DO know about those things, they falsely think Democrats have done worse.
They probably listen to Fox, or rightwing radio, or read Breitbart (90% Mercer funded) or the Daily Caller (85% Koch funded).
There's a movie about this, called I think the "Brainwashing of my Dad". To understand your friend, watch that.
Oh, wow. Is this what you think about people who don't blindly agree with your liberal policies? That they're "brainwashed"? I'm an independent, and the responses I've seen from liberals on this site have made me 99% certain I will never vote for a Democrat again. You actually think that those who disagree with you are brainwashed. Just when I thought I'd heard everything.![]()
You make your political decisions based on what anonymous people on a mommy website post?
Interesting.
No, dolt. I'd make my political decisions regardless of whether this site, or others like it, even existed. But reading what unhinged, out-of-touch liberals have to say here certainly is the icing on the cake, so to speak. I can't take any of you seriously.
If that’s true then why make meaningless comments like that?
Sigh. You seem to enjoy arguing for argument's sake. I don't know how to help you without constantly repeating what I've already said. Goodbye.
Just wondering why you make comments like that if they don’t actually mean anything.
Oh wait - we know. It’s because you are full of shit 24x7.![]()
DP. Another way you can tell when a liberal can't win an argument is when he reverts to the personal "you're full of shit" comments.
What argument? PP said that she won't ever vote D again because of anonymous posts. Then 5 min later said I didn't mean that. AKA she was just full of shit. No real argument there.![]()
Ok, I can see you are truly slow enough that we're going to have to recap this for you. I'm the PP who said, "I'm an independent, and the responses I've seen from liberals on this site have made me 99% certain I will never vote for a Democrat again."
You then, in a clearly obtuse manner, said: "You make your political decisions based on what anonymous people on a mommy website post?"
I replied: "No, dolt. I'd make my political decisions regardless of whether this site, or others like it, even existed. But reading what unhinged, out-of-touch liberals have to say here certainly is the icing on the cake, so to speak. I can't take any of you seriously."
In other words, of course I don't make my political decisions SOLELY based on what anonymous posters have to say. But, the opinions of those anonymous posters certainly CONTRIBUTE to my revulsion for today's breed of liberal.
I've helpfully bolded and underlined the salient points, above. I do hope you don't have any further trouble following along.
DP. Dude, you're just another deluded a-hole. The minute you typed "unhinged, out-of-touch liberals," no one could possibly take you seriously or suppose you to have anything intelligent to add. You're just a garden-variety, right-wing propaganda hound.
Sure, whatever you say. But I guess there are no "garden-variety, left-wing propaganda hounds" in your tiny little world, amirite?
Also, I'm not a dude. Have a great night!
You don't get to put words in my mouth. There are certainly left-wingers who are too much for me, as well.
Didn't see that coming, did you? You can't imagine a world where everyone isn't as narrow minded and nasty as you are, can you?
I am calling you out, specifically you, as a lousy person who spreads the propaganda of the right. Either quit it or own it and stop pretending you are anything resembling a nice or reasonable or intelligent person.
On the contrary, it’s you who has been putting words in other PP’s mouths and doing your best to troll those of us you disagree with. You seem unable to debate without telling others they’re “full of shit,” evidence that you really have nothing intelligent to say. You have certainly shown yourself to be all of the nasty things you list, and so much more. Including terribly off-kilter and unhinged. I can see that you somehow enjoy arguing just for the sake of arguing, a clear sign that you have emotional issues. Not interested in playing your bizarre games, so bye now. I hope you receive the help you so clearly need.
This post is a mash-up of all the lamest comebacks ever seen on DCUM. But you forgot to put "you're just jealous" in there somewhere.
