Walk Away, if you will.

Joe Biden's presidency is the cause of reasonable Democrats and classical liberals to rethink their affiliation with the Democratic Party.

And what about the more bat$hit crazy the Republicans get? I mean come off it. MTG and DJT are the leaders of the GOP right now. Cray cray.

I consider myself a reasonable person. Everyone who knows me considers me a reasonable person. I would NEVER EVER in a million lifetimes join a party that accepted those two whackadoodles as leaders. Never mind Boebert and Matt Goetz and Paul Gosar. And the Christian nationalists who want to us to become a theocracy. And the closeted politicians and activists trying to take away marriage equality.

Please, tell us how moderate Democrats are going to flock to a party that wants to make abortion illegal FROM CONCEPTION. And to force 10 year olds to go through pregnancy. And to force women to go to term with dying, deformed fetuses. No way moderates are going to say, hey, no biggie, and vote for that.

Joe Biden is a moderate. If you think he is a raging leftist, you are far-right-leaning conservative. So you've exposed yourself.

MTG and DJT totally have sway over what legislation gets introduced into congress. They can whip up all the party votes they need!

The GOP is going to build Trump's wall tomorrow tomorrow! They're going to end the vote for women! They're going to make it illegal to be LGBTQ+! It's going to be the Taliban 2.0!

Thats totally what the GOP donors want! And what the donors want is what the donors get!

MAGA

Yes, the MAGA seems to be pulling strings right now, that is for certain. You are not making a good case for becoming Republican! Until you kick out the MAGA, no thanks.

Liberals have been saying the GOP would go extinct since about the 1950s. People just get more conservative the older they get once they have homes, have families, and have decent jobs. Story as old as time.

The birthrate is lower than ever, 50% of 18-45 yr olds live at home and millennials own a fraction of the wealth that boomers did at the same age.

And yet the US' population will keep increasing well into 2070.....because of ding!ding!ding! Immigration, most of which are Hispanics from down South. See how well it goes for Democrats over the next 40 years as they invite in millions of people per year who are super Catholic, super traditional family value oriented, who come from male dominated cultures, and who respond to politicians with strongmen personalities. Democrats are currently making the biggest blunder of all time with open borders.

You realize we need immigrants to do jobs that native born Americans won't do, right? Work on the fields, in slaughter houses, in nursing homes etc. If we don't have "those people" here then you are going to have to wipe your grandmother's ass and kill and dress your own sheep.

Do you even have a point? Guess what -; the people that do those jobs are often very Catholic and have traditional family values mindset. See what those kinds of people think about lbgtq issues, for example. Democrats are seeding their own demise and don't even realize it.

This thing you keep harping on about the grip that Catholicism has on Hispanic/Latina populations is interesting because my immigrant ancestors were also quite pious Catholics and several generations later, no one in my family goes to church anymore. Same with many people I know whose ancestors were quite religious.

Religion is slowly losing its grip on Americans. And when younger generations begin to assimilate in the US, they also lose the conservative, patriarchal traditions of their immigrant forefathers. American culture is a strong influence.

Some may ask, what about those straight, white Christian men over 50? Those men need to feel like they can return home to a more sane and rational and moderate space which for now is only the Democratic party. Unfortunately, the Democratic party makes people pick a team, and they practically force that demographic of men away. How? Well, by placing blame for centuries of history at their feet, when they themselves may never had any power of authority over anyone.

But to worry about GOP survival is weird. They came close to winning 2020 and won the majority of house votes cast in 2022.

The GOP does have a bizarre obsession with extreme abortion rights (not quite offset by the Democrats' bizarre obsession with trans rights and cruel indifference to the border crisis and identity politics that is more divisive than healing). But you might ask yourself why the Democrats, if they're so much better, apparently, aren't blowing out the GOP in every election?

I daresay most Americans would be happy for both parties to completely self destruct and start over from scratch.

Uh - no. I think Dems are, on the whole, doing a pretty good job in a pretty hard circumstance. I am not interested in blowing everything up and starting again. There's no both sides here; no, we all made mistakes.

Disagree. The Democrats own the border crisis. They stood by and did nothing as millions poured over the border. The Democrats pushed progressive policies in major urban areas that have seen a corresponding explosion of crime and murders and violence. The various infrastructure and stimulus bills definitely fueled inflation. They are the public face of highly divisive identity politics pitting people against people. They have a lackluster record of supporting basic concepts like freedom of speech or press (as the twitter files revealed), which, if anything, are basic rights the party no longer values. The cronyism between the Democrats and legacy media and much of the Federal bureaucracy is disturbing. The rush to support trans right without seriously analyzing the long term implications for children's wellbeing with something they don't fully understand has been unhealthy and unproductive.

If you really want to understand why the Democrats are so despised by the 48% or so of Americans, try to step outside your bubble a bit.

wow. talk about projecting.

I'm sorry, who is it banning books and controlling medical care for women and trans people?

Nobody is banning books. I am fine with making sure certain books are not available in school libraries. That is not banning.
Placing limits on abortion? I am all for it. The life inside the woman matters.
And, who is limiting care for trans people? You think that CHILDREN should have life changing medication and surgical procedures when are not of the age of consent?
