No Rational Person Can Vote Democratic in 2020

Let’s say this straight out, so there is no chance of any misinterpretation whatsoever: It is impossible for any sane, rational, level-headed person to consciously support the Democratic ticket in 2020. On every single issue, right down the line, the Republicans offer a better solution and their path of governance delivers a superior quality of life to every American. It is provable, unarguable and unequivocal.

Opposition to President Trump breaks down into three areas, none of which are valid reasons for voting for the Democrats.

Reason No. 1 -- Emotional Blindness

This is a big one. Many voters -- on both sides, in all candor -- are emotionally wedded to their vote. Whether Democrat or Republican, they regard their party of choice as their “team,” a lifelong rooting interest. Family voting history, upbringing, and the thought of, “I’ve always voted that way” plays a big part in peoples’ voting decisions. Many times, a party’s actual policy stance runs directly counter to that voter’s personal interests (such as devout Catholics supporting Democrats who favor abortion or Jewish voters supporting Democrats who back anti-Israel/pro-Palestinian legislation), but they vote for them anyway, because of a lifelong emotional attachment.

Today, the starkest example of destructive blind party loyalty is the rioting and anti-police violence perpetrated by domestic anarchist groups. National Democratic politicians refuse to condemn their behavior. Assassins cheer for police deaths and block the emergency room entrance and every high-profile Democrat remains silent, which effectively amounts to approval. Yet every committed liberal voter will still vote for them after rationalizing it away. That is the ultimate in hypocritical emotional blindness.

“Rational” is in very short supply these days, as is “common good sense”.

“Emotional” has become the new normal, and “common sense” has had a large infusion of very BAD application of logic and reasoning power.

AS a result, fecal matter obeys gravitational imperatives. ($h!t rolls downhill, to the uninitiated.)

That's why we see all the emotional crap.

Emotion overrides reason.

No, it all boils down to how many votes can the Democrats steal to win.

There is no reason among Democrat left wing women

They act on feelings developed as consensus among them selves. Thought hurts. Thought requires mental effort.

There is no thought involved

Fortunately for the Democrats this country has plenty of irrational people.

There’s little point in discussing the candidates or issues as long as the DemoNaziCommie machine is allowed to steal the election.

Unfortunately, “irrational” voters are probably a majority.

No rational person could possibly vote Democrat in this, or any, election. Throw in Christian people ... they’re couldn’t, either.

The one that “reason” that fries my ass is what my cousin’s wife said, “I’ve always voted Democrat”, and “Look at Trump’s mouth”. Huh? She’s a Catholic school principal in western NY.

Emotions, not reason, rule the day.

More than half the electorate consists of women. And half or the other half ACT like women.

Biden and the democrat party will concede the Presidential Election before the vote is taken.

Nearly half the country is irrational. I know people like this. Otherwise intelligent, conservative minded and decent people who put all of that aside and instead emote. “I don’t like his tweeting” or “why didn’t he wear a mask” or whatever. They focus on the style and not the substance. And of course they are on Facebook and watch cable tv, which reinforces all of that. I try to calmly rebut but I soon realize it is hopeless.

The establishment of our new Government seemed to be the last great experiment for promoting human happiness... George Washington

Trusting citizens over elites has produced our amazing country... we have the best system the world has seen for citizens.

But it's one of the worst systems for ruling 'elites'.

That's where Biden and his democrat thugs come in...
