"They (Democrats) are relying upon not only voting fraud and manipulation..."

Took practically the whole article but at least it was acknowledged.

We have become the place the people of Sodom and Gomorrah would have gone to for a 'good time'!

Stupid article.
There’s Government Power and then there’s Freedom of The People.
That’s the split.

MAGA is The People. NeverTrumpers, Florida Man supporters, and Nimrata Bots are The Government.

Vote for our PDJT The GOAT, or you are the problem
Desantis will never get enough support.
Never.
Get over it.

It’s Trump or Democrat Rule.

It’s far past time to choose.

Only because the government redefined “white” to no longer include groups like Hispanics which were considered white before. The black percentage of the population hasn’t changed in over 100 years.

Yeah.....I disagree with his premise. There truly isn’t much difference between the Bushite RINOs who ran the Republican party from 1988 until 2016 and the Democrats. It took voters a while to understand that the Republicans weren’t really sticking to Reagan’s policies...that they were instead going around the world constantly meddling, getting into foreign wars of choice and nation building, that they had no interest in controlling illegal immigration or in maintaining any kind of industrial base in America and would always side with their corporate paymasters in all things, but once they understood that they weren’t going to vote for it.

It took Trump and a complete sea change in policies to convince the old Blue Dog, “Reagan Democrats” to come out for a Republican candidate. It will take sticking to those policy changes to cement their loyalty from Trump alone to other Populist/Nationalist Republicans. They will never vote for RINOs no matter how much RINOs wish they would and dishonestly claim they would if only RINOs won the Republican nomination instead of America First MAGA candidates.

I would vote for a Republican candidate, but I’m still waiting for a PERFECT CONSERVATIVE. Anything short of that, such as a Republican that is 99% conservative, is NO DIFFERENT than a Democrat that is 0% conservative, so why vote for Republican? (admit it, many of you guys agree with this)

This is the wrong take entirely. It doesn’t address how establishment Republicans actively oppose their voter base at every turn. It also misses the fact that we live under globalist corporate fascism that effectively controls both parties, instead claiming that the correct designation of “uniparty” is wrong.

It also bothers me how this writer keeps implying we can only have two parties no matter what, which ignores Washington’s warning about political parties.

Bro didn't comprehend the ramifications of mass migration and is upset that people don't want to be a mere repubilcan or democrat.

The writer is a beaten wife republican, who will always vote republican and go back to them, even though what the gop does to them via mass amnesties, migration, massive spending, forever wars, open borders, china mfn, national debt, etc etc etc etc.

It looks like he’s suggesting both MAGA and anti-Trump voters put their differences aside and come together, but for whom? An actual conservative? A moderate? Trump certainly isn’t conservative. I’m not sure what he’s saying here.

“These Marxist ideologues, with their totalitarian mindset and statist convictions, have skillfully exploited an overwhelmingly self-centered and ill-educated populace, while being greatly aided by foolishly sanctimonious segments of the conservative electorate and the Republican Party. “

This started under Woodrow Wilson. Unlike us in the west where we celebrate freedom as a god given right, Marxism is a goal, not a result. It takes many years of a well thought out ideological plan to come to fruition. And when the time is right, the plan is executed.

Did Clinton execute the plan in 92? I don’t believe so. Once Hillary’s healthcare debacle was over, Clinton became a bit more of a center left President because congress was able to check his power. I do believe that the results of 9/11 opened many doors for the Marxists. It exposed gaps in American security, American economic policy and gaps in American culture.

When Obama took office and appointed Marxist Czars to run agencies, that’s when the proverbial sh*t hit the fan and with a complicit media to run interference, Obama did whatever the hell he pleased to move this country to the far left.

However the two biggest factors in where America is today is due to two people. The first being Bart Stupak, who was the deciding vote implementing Obamacare and George Stephanopolous who corrected Obama when Obama said his “Muslim faith.” If Stephanopolous instead called Obama out on that, we wouldn’t be where we are today.

John Adams said, “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Morality and virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to be free.

So, there you have it.. As the animals run free to steal, murder and rob, the Justus system in nearly complete collapse and seemingly no one under the age of 30 years is willing to defend the border, protect the nation and uphold the Constitution..

I believe the next five to ten years are, most likely, going to be some of the bloodiest ever seen on this continent..

Moreover, the average margin of victory in the popular vote tally favored the Democrats by 3.9% or an average of 4.5 million votes per cycle, a reversal of nearly 14 percentage points and 13 million votes for the Republican candidates.

And how many illegals were “legalized” by the 1986 amnesty? Not hard for the leftists to gain 12+ million votes once they imported and “legalized” at least 11 million illegal leeches.

The problem for Conservatives is the abortion trap.

Conservatives can easily win elections only if abortion is not front and center.

If it’s about the economy - conservatives win.
If it’s about national security - conservatives win.
If it’s about law and order - conservatives win.
If it’s about government tyranny and corruption - conservatives win.

Conservatives win on these core issues because a majority of Americans can see with their own eyes that Democrat policies make things worse. We have all the facts on our side.

But the abortion issue simply does not favor conservatives - the Democrats win if an election is focused on abortion.

Why? Because of a dirty secret: Most American parents - no matter how conservative they may be regarding other issues - are secretly liberal when it comes to abortion.

They may agree it’s awful in the abstract. They may talk pro-life. But when push comes to shove, if their teenage daughter gets pregnant, they want an insurance policy - they want her to be able to get an abortion.

Sadly, with our declining culture, teens become sexually active in high school - almost nobody waits for marriage anymore, and there is not a lot that parents can do to change that.

Like it or not, this is a political liability for conservative candidates who need to prove to their base that they are pure pro-life, while at the same time not scare off the millions of otherwise conservative voters who secretly want abortion to remain an option.

I know it sounds like selling out - but the best way you pro-life purists (and I’m one too) can help President Trump get elected - is not to force him into the Democrat abortion trap.

If we pro-life purists force Trump to pledge that he’s for banning abortion altogether with no exceptions, then the Democrats win - it’s as simple as that.

I urge you to give Trump some leeway in the way he talks about abortion. He’s already proven he’s pro-life.. Let him answer questions about abortion in a way that doesn’t scare off the 3/4 of voters who want abortion to remain an option.

I know you don’t like it - neither do I - but there are not enough pro-life purists to win elections.

Sadly, you are right. Conservatives are actually often infanticidal hypocrites.

They raise their girls to be worldly and their boys to be 'boys will be boys' boys.

They will pay lip service to Right to Life but ultimately they believe in nothing like it.

Anyway the solution to political reform not working is that it really must originate as religious reform.

Pastors need to start preaching fire and brimstone again.

It is really that simple.
