I drove across the state of NC during the 2029 election, and decided to count the number of Trump and Hillary signs.

Once I left the city of Charlotte I only saw Trump signs the entire trip.

Hm?.....How about a story on Republicans who feel threatened by **mobs** in riot prone Democrat regions.

Somehow I do not feel any empathy towards their situation. They have only their blind ignorance and allegiance to blame. Useful idiots that they are, just cannot grasp a tiny modicum of critical thinking.

“The hatred for Democrats is just unbelievable” There's no reason to read further. The author simply doesn't get it. The right doesn't 'hate' Leftists. They simply oppose the policies of the Leftists. This Left author obviously doesn't have a clue.

So instead of supporting good and rejecting evil... they’re just going into hiding.

Well bless their hearts.

Yes... I like it.

The left ALWAYS projects. I should have known when they called all of us Nazis and racists.

I always thought they were commies.

I know, right? Instead of rejecting evil and coming into the light they just go hide under a rock until they get their numbers back up.

Truly disgusting behavior. They should be ashamed.

The story that’s being missed is that there is a great shift happening with the parties, as blue collar, labor, and African Americans move increasingly to the Republican Party.

Oppressive Covid policies, demonization of un-vaxxed people (a huge proportion of whom are black), the scab-picking over race, the constant siloing of people by category, inflation, unprotected borders, the promotion of mental illness over the rights of others. All of these hit working Americans more than the elite, and the Democrat party is losing their traditional base by the droves.

Reversing Covid oppression represents a bit of an awakening on the left, but it’s not going to be enough. If the current trends continue, the Democrat Party could end up in the wilderness for a very long time.

The question is: Can the Republicans capitalize on this, or will they destroy this opportunity as they have been known all too well to do…

What’s unbelievable is someone so morally bankrupt that they think Democrats can be liked.

Charlotte used to be a good place up until the 90s.

“I feel like we’re on the run.”

You should be!
Without the cheat machinery in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, you have nothing.

My Grandfather was a lifelong D in PA...he would be appalled to see what you people stand for.

Well isn’t that just too bad. Look on the bright side.

At least Orange Man isn’t sending out anymore nasty tweets.

What goes around, comes around.

Now they know how republicans have felt under dem majority when they have had cars and trucks and property vandalized because of Trump signs and stickers.

My sympathy meter is pegged on zero.

Extinction? We could only hope. I’d settle for mass internment. They’re too stupid and corrupt to run free.

Obama, Hillary, et al are still running the country. Biden is just a puppet.
