I’d say it’s more of an “ideological” sport vs team sport. Case in point: Joe Biden in 2024 and Trump in 2020. If you’re left of center you’re going to vote for Biden in 2024 because he’s much more likely to support your ideology than his opponent, and a primary only weaker the Dem party/ideological cause. Just as in 2020, you might have not been able to stand Trump personally, but if you’re right of center you were going to vote for Trump over Biden. Very little of the vote (percentage wise) is truly up for grabs…though in swing states/tight races it definitely can affect the outcome. So in reality, it’s mostly about turn out, and with going further and further away from needing to stand in line on Election Day to pull the lever, it’s only gotten easier to vote (even though progressives want us to think it’s the 1950s again wrt keeping minorities from voting). So if only around 30% of country are truly a MAGA/love Trump type person and around 30% are vote for the progressive candidate (in this case Biden) no matter what…that leaves the rest down to motivating your side to vote and turning as much as the other side sour against their candidate as possible. BL: Very little of the vote is up for grab regardless of the candidate, and ideology is ruling the day. Hence why the two parties have only gone further left and further right. And if you look at the way the country has been moving culturally the last 10-20 years, it’s not favoring the GOP. Not saying it’s a good thing, it’s just the truth.

But he’s the smartest guy Joe Biden knows?
-
Well it’s good to know we don’t have drugs being illegally made, trafficked, sold, consumed, etc…you know, because the government prevents it.
-
And here I thought the left said they wanted the government out of the bedroom?
-
You beat me to it. Nsplayr did one of his usual plays (no pun intended)—he tweaks his response just enough to suggest you’re wrong, but keeps it close enough that to the untrained eye it looks legit.
-
“Now I don’t know what this really is” he says…but right before he says it seems like an assault on federal officers. What a 🤡
-
Let me know when progressives start moving away in droves from expensive coastal cities, you know, because they’re afraid of the effects of “climate change”. Judge people by their personal actions, not their rhetoric.
-
Funny, I’ve been saying this for quite a while on here: No American administration is going to war with China to protect Taiwan. And likewise, no sizable amount of the American population is going to refuse to purchase products made in China if/when China goes into Taiwan.
-
Are you suggesting the wealth should be equal amongst every person in the country? The world?
-
I can’t disagree with you there. But the electoral college and “unencumbered gun rights” has zero to do with one party/segment of the population forcing its will on another. Unless you’re suggesting that the left doesn’t support the Constitution?
-
Wait…you’re against the electoral college? And why are “unencumbered gun rights” a bad thing?
-
You tell me—the DOJ only appears to want to go after one major political leader. I wonder why that is.
-
So it’s a “maybe” for Hillary and her crimes…but not a “maybe” for Trump and his? What I’m saying is that when it comes to charging the leader of each majority political party, you apply the laws in the same way. It’s scary that you and nearly half the country don’t share this same desire. And then you’re surprised when nearly half the country doesn’t believe we have a non-political DOJ/FBI.
-
Wait, you’re ok with Trump being indicted and saying “maybe” Hillary should have been indicted? I’m suggesting that if you go after one of the top politicians from one party and not one from another party, then the appearance for favoritism, corruption, etc is strong. And I’m sorry, “truly repentant” shouldn’t matter when breaking the law. Because who gets determine if someone is “truly repentant” and not someone else?
-
Just so I understand what you’re saying…are you suggesting what Hillary did was not willful disregard for the law? Why wasn’t she also indicted?
-
You’re only helping to further my point—it’s very selective when saying “no one is above the law”. Either what you did is an alleged crime, or it’s not. Sure Trump is a jerk, but that should not determine whether or not he is tried for a crime and someone else (ie Hillary Clinton) isn’t. You’re not saying it’s ok, but yet you’re giving reasons why you think it’s ok for one person to charged and not another.
-
No one above the law (definitely applies to you if your last name is Trump)…doesn’t apply if your last name is Clinton or Biden. I seriously can’t fathom how leftists (even those on here) can honestly say they’re ok with this happening to Trump and not Clinton, Pence, Biden, etc. I mean, I get the fact that they hate Trump, but conservatives hated Clinton and never did anything like this when there was plenty of evidence to do so. I can’t stand Trump personally, and though I agreed with many (not all) of his policies, I don’t want to see him be the nominee next year…and truth be told, it would probably just be best for the country if he died peacefully in his sleep tonight. But what’s happening right now can’t be seen as a good thing.
-
Copy. I appreciate you response about Nashville. And honestly, I wish the best for your parents/family.
-
Nsplayr doesn’t even live in Nashville…he said he lives “near” Nashville. He doesn’t seem to like to respond to me, so someone should ask him why he doesn’t live in the city limits and also why he didn’t want to send his kids to Nashville public schools, you know, because they’re so great?
-
So you don’t live in the city limits of Nashville? Why not?
-
And yet voluntarily chooses to live in one of the “reddest” states in the country. Wouldn’t you be happier in California or Oregon? Honest question…God knows I would never consider moving to California.
-
What leftists fail to realize is that two things can be true at the same time—messing up kids’ lives is bad regardless of who is doing it. When Bill Maher is saying it, you know it’s pretty bad.

The leftist on this site can’t (won’t) even explain what a woman is.

Concur man. Many years ago I had a Major tell a group of us Lts/Capts to not talk about money in front of the enlisted (especially the younger airmen), for obvious reasons. Additionally, my wife and I fortunately both do pretty well, and I’m not a big fan of always talking about money, luxury items even with peers. If money/possessions is all someone can/wants to talk about then we’re just two very different people.
