Someday, her son will put her in a crappy nursing home and she will wonder why he resents her.

[Degaston]

I suppose that many of these young men do not want to get drafted to go die in Donbas.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The next step for Eli is dip and chew.

Not if he stays on the conservative path. He will remain generous and compassionate and grow in both aspects with increased wisdom.

The various federal scum "judges" involved in tormenting the January 6th hostages react angrily:

Stories like this one are both ridiculous and sad.

No magic word will turn a liberal into a conservative.
And no magic word will turn a conservative into a liberal.

Life is short. Enjoy time with your family and friends. Leave politics off the table.

Only reality - real experiences - will turn a liberal into a conservative. Let that happen naturally. It’s pretty much the only way.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Politically, there are two kinds of people, elitists and populists:

1. Elitists believe in unlimited government of, by and for an entitled, hereditary, autocratic political/bureaucratic class.

2. Populists believe in limited government of, by and for the people.

[No name given]

That’s correct.

My libtard cousin had his 27 year-old son vote Trump

His son is in IT/programming and he’s lost two jobs already in his short career after university, to consultants moving operations offshore, or bringing in H1B migrants

The son is actually turning the father’s thinking.

No! Not that!

I’m 56, I haven’t grown up and I’m a die hard conservative.

Don’t rush everyone to grow up! :)

In fact, being here for 25 years, I can say a small percentage of us have never grown up...our votes still count :)

But I grew up on Staten Island’s south shore...a notoriously conservative enclace.

I remember hearing my first liberal comment when I was 16.

I worked at Friendly’s and some kid said “Reagan is gonna take money away from all the poor people”

When you remember the first liberal comment you ever heard, you know you’re from a conservative area!

Maybe she should just be happy he’s a decent person.

That is what we are suppose to be raising our children to be, decent adults with kind hearts. Odd that she would succeed and be so upset about it.

[SamuraiScot]

The above article was so simple-minded and childlike, I assumed it was a parody of the NYT, not the real thing.

Silly me.

[Blood of Tyrants]

As Winston Churchill said; “If you were not a liberal at 20, I would say you had no heart. If you were not a conservative by 40 I would say you had no brain.”

Aw, poor Eli. Stuck with a woke mom who lives in Portland (yes, I immediately burst out laughing when reading that) who lived through that mess a few years and is wandering through a fantasy world.

[Uncle Miltie]

The Red Pill will set you free!

Aw, poor Eli. Stuck with a woke mom who lives in Portland (yes, I immediately burst out laughing when reading that) who lived through that mess a few years and is wandering through a fantasy world.

Good chance that Eli has been reading Andrew Tate's posts. Young men like Eli may feel like he is being emasculated in the environment they live in.

I’ve never seen them bellyache about all the good conservative kids who came home from college as brainwashed, America hating leftists.

Get over it.

The level of deception of die hard democrats is staggering in its scope. A few forays over to DU and you’ll see the worst of the worst.

And without a hint of irony, they are now (as of yesterday) advocating for arming up (with AR 15s) and creating democrat militias.
