All the military vets I know are republicans who left the GOP. Most left in 2016 but some more recently. They are loyal to the constitution, not a dictator wannabe who wants to shred it. They all have at least one masters degree and most have multiple masters degrees. They recognize a guy who wants a banana republic when they see him.

They also have daughters, gay or trans kids, or autistic kids and they care about their safety. They voted for Harris.

Since all kids need emotional support, how do you explain that the current President abandoned his when they needed him the most? It lead to drug addiction, failed marriages, rehab stints etc.


Hi, I am the poster with the dyslexic son. I don’t like Donald Trump at all. But I think his policies are better than the Democrats. I think the Democrats got way to swept up in the far left and pandering to the AOCs, Bernie Sanders, and pro-Palestinian protestors. In the past five years, the woke politics, defund the police, and similar movements have (in my opinion) damaged our country - made our cities less safe and not actually helping minorities be more successful.

On disabilities and special needs, Trump’s son Barron has special needs. Trump said some insensitive things, but I’m focused more on policies than the person.


Trump plans to gut supports for special needs kids. I hope you have a good plan b and the money to pay for it. God speed.


I do have a back up plan. You can take me off your worry list. Maybe try to focus instead on why your party failed to capture the hearts and minds of the American people than to continue to tell everyone who disagrees with you that they are idiots.


Because too many people get their news from bad blogs, bad podcasts, and social media. All of which is littered with lies and propaganda created by our adversaries to get exactly the result we got.
Like MSNBC and CNN?

And Fox News also. All of the networks are biased and nobody knows where to turn. Information mistrust is at an all time high.


Part of the fascist playbook.

Change your strategy to discussing issues. it’s not working.


They were discussing issues; they got insults hurled back at them by people who were not interested.

Now we have a person heading to the White House who our national security experts have called a threat to our national security. Where were the grown ups?

And how do you feel about people who gain power by putting others down while pretending the biggest threat to democracy is calling out someone's poor discourse? Rather than actual threats? How do you feel about a group of people that only want to support dictators abroad who also say what they want when they want?

I voted 3rd party even though I know it was essentially a vote for Trump. If I had to vote R or D, I would have voted R.

Many people argue that the R party of today is not that of 30 years ago. Same goes for the D party. You are losing the silent, moderate majority.
Dems already LOST the silent, moderate majority. We lost the union vote for goodness sake. How was that not the canary in the coal mine for the DNC? We need to drop wokeness and get back to the middle quickly.



They are in the middle. The values and policies they support are supported by the majority of people. Things like "woke" and "CRT" are weaponized terms meant to scare people when the reality is, very very different and not malign at all. But it is too late and now we are on the dawn of a Christian Nationalist fascist state. I hope the Leopards don't eat too many faces.

No, the current Democratic party is not in the middle. Lax immigration policies, “progressive” prosecutors, allowing biological males to compete in female sports, unchecked violent protests on college campuses because “freedom of speech”, cancelling/branding as racist anyone who disagrees with liberal viewpoints, none of these are centrist and all were roundly rejected by the electorate this week.

By most objective metrics — career field, selectivity of undergrad university, SAT scores — I’m fairly intelligent.

I like to celebrate Independence Day, and I’m a military veteran, so I’m arguably patriotic.

What would you like to know?


How do you feel about someone and a group of supporters who makes the flag about being divisive, insular rather than working strategically with our allies, and never sacrificing but just seeking power? Flags and guns on Christmas photos.

Trump’s education policy is to away the Department of Education which protected students with special needs and/or of low income.

While this doesn’t address special needs, it does show that we’ll only really have religious patriotic schools, so maybe there won’t be a lot of reading. It sounds like Sunday School.

We can move the Ed people to processing claims at the border. Plenty of space in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona.


So you like some government? Maybe with this brilliant idea you should be on the transition team.


I don't want to be firing people all over the place. Sucks not having a job.

This is speculation, no wonder she doesn’t care what you think.


People did you not read Agenda47 before you voted? It’s not speculation.

Sounds great. I’ll be happy to see critical race theory, gender ideology, and sexual orientation topics leave school curriculum. You can indoctrinate your kid on your own time at home. School should be for core subjects. We are failing miserably in math and science.


So you didn’t read the link? The focus is not math and science, it’s patriotism and religion. People really are stupid. The exit polls showed exactly why this is the plan.
