I’ve always maintained “Independents” are just self-absorbed people who like to be pandered to, discussed and courted for their ‘favors’. They’re really nothing more than Democrats with self-image problems.

‘young single women’

Yep. Republicans won married men 59-39, married women 56-42, single men 52-45, but lost single women 68-31. The Demonrats are smart in appealing to radical selfishness.

yep, democrats supporting womens “right” to murder their babies is no different than if they were supporting men’s rights to beat their wives, or the property rights of slave owners who don’t want their valuable slave property taken away from them.

Basically the Democrats are doing what they always have historically done.

Nonsense.

And you’ll have to argue with a number of the Founding Fathers. They were fearful about the development of powerful political parties.

“Independent” is just a play for power in and of itself.

How in the world is that? I’ve never been “pandered to, discussed and courted for ‘favors’.” Nobody even knows or cares, as far as I can tell. I don’t discuss it in real life.

I’ve been ‘independent’ for 50 years. It has nothing to do with ‘power’, but with the simple desire to not be officially affiliated with any party.

...I've been 'independent' for 50 years....

Now I see why you called my personal thoughts on idependents nonsense.

Try perusing this to get some perspective.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_and_independent_members_of_the_United_States_Congress

The fact is that most 'independents' are left-leaning and when elected and given the choice mostly caucus with Democrats.

Well, I’m not left-leaning; so your link means nothing to me. I’ve voted Republican all of my life, except for two times when I was disgusted with everyone in the two parties who was running.

Do you vote Republican no matter who is running, and no matter what they’ve done previously?

That seems no different from the knee-jerk democrats that I know...

I never said specifically you are left-leaning. “most independents are.....” was the operative phrase. That said, the preponderance of ‘independents’ experienced with being seated in Congress and being left-leaning is unmistakable and beyond the “knee jerk” reaction you ascribe to it. You can take that however you want, but there it is.

“respectable” white people are the one’s who live above it all. Their voting choices are a superficial thing where things like, “he doesn’t mean Tweet” and “I support choice for women (not having a clue what that means)” are the kind of things that shape their vote.

Life for them is dropping the kids off at school or a sport. Yoga and latte with the gal pals. The consequences of their vote doesn’t quite touch them.

But it is getting closer and closer to touching them. Very soon, their kids who they drop off to sports will be dead from fentanyl, beaten by gangs, etc. Their car that they love to drop said kids off in will be stolen, their house broken into etc.

I am seeing signs of this happening where I live. It is starting to impact. But they just haven’t quite made the connection yet. They will sometime when they are wondering how little Susie Soccer Star ended up in rehab.
