Democrats can get pretty nasty to anyone who tries to escape and go against them. Look what they do to conservative blacks.


Democrats call any black that doesn’t play by their rules as “Uncle Tom.”

It’s the black democrats/leaders that are the true “Uncle Toms.” They don’t believe a man should be allowed to think for themself.

Tulsi is well to the left of Obama Biden Harris on domestic policy. What does anything mean any more if she is a Republican?

Ask Lindsey Graham or Yurtle the Turtle.

Tulsi and RFK Jr. are welcome in the MAGA Big Tent and will have valuable select roles to play.

JD Vance is a perfect running mate for President Trump and has been excellent on the campaign trail so far. Watch his speeches and interviews. He will make a fine Vice President and would be an excellent President some day.

Hillary basically called her a Russian agent.


Homeland Security called her a domestic terrorist.

I'm referring to the fact that the voting rolls in Florida have been flooded with non-citizen registrations since 2022 with no significant effort made on the part of the Republicans to put a stop to it, or to purge the rolls in any meaningful way.

There was a half-hearted effort in 2021 to remove "inactive" voters from the rolls, which hardly made a dent. Then, when DeSantis signed a bill I believe it was this year making it illegal for non-citizen canvassers to recruit non-citizens in their communities for voter registration, a federal judge in Florida appointed by Obama ruled in May of this year that the law was "unconstitutional", and prohibited the AG and the Secy. of State of Florida from implementing it.

So I know what I'm talking about. I'm a Floridian for forty years and I've worked many elections here behind the tables. This will be the big surprise for 2024 because the fix is in with all of the illegal alien registrations now on the books.

Even if the illegals whose names appear do not actually vote in person and most don't even know they have been registered, their ballots will be harvested. Again there has been no essential changes to the landscape here since the 2020 steal, except for the constant influx of more and more aliens from the border being flown in courtesy of the US government.

“she was aligned with her father who is about as conservative as you can be in Hawaii and still hold public office (as a Dem”

Mr. MM worked with her father on protesting homosexual goings-on in HI. He had to run as a RAT. Otherwise he wouldn’t have been elected in HI.

BTW, Tulsi is a Hindu.

That the Republican Party is loaded with politicos having an R after their name who are in fact left-leaning Democrats. So I don’t see how you can accuse Gabbard who aligns for the most part with Trumpism and has even kicked Kamala’s ass in a debate, of making Obama look like a Centrist. Frankly, I think you’re nucking futs and are just picking a fight because it’s the easy and cheap thing for you to do. Then everyone else has to do the heavy lifting. You just ask the stupid three-word question that you think makes you look oh so smucking fart.

Is the GOP reliant on a Democrat?

Kind of tells you all you need to know, doesn’t it?

McConnell and Graham aren’t my type of Republicans but they are both miles to the right of Bernie Sanders-supporting Tulsi Gabbard. If you’re for single payer healthcare that’s fine, people are allowed to have that position I guess, but you are a socialist, you’re well to the left of the mainstream Rat party let alone a conservative. In 2016 and 2020 Tulsi attacked Obama from the left... and now we have people claiming she is indistinguishable from Mitch McConnell? Crazy

The more you run your mouth the stupider you become. Linda Grahamnesty is miles to the right of Bernie Sanders? Have you never heard of the Uniparty? You make normalcy bias look like a blessed sacrament.

Bernie Sanders and Lindsay Graham are the same based on what, vibes? Their voting record is very different. If you don’t care about voting records, then maybe.
