This Gallup Poll Shows Another Stark Difference Between Republicans and Democrats(searched)

A new poll from Gallup shows the stark contrast between Republicans and Democrats, and how vastly different their priorities are. When asked what values America needs most today, Republicans listed their top choices as "patriotism."

Democrats, on the other hand, ranked patriotism dead last and said the most important thing for America right now is "equality."

By "equality," of course, Democrats mean they pick the winners and losers. They don't actually want equality, after all. Just power and control. And it's not quality — that's "equity."

Didn't need a poll to come to this conclusion.

Patriotism NOT 'hateriotism'. rktman 2026

[frank ballenger]

True, no need for a poll. The two sides are increasing in seething hatred for each other.

Interesting moment on the Scott Jennings radio show today. That the riots and street demonstrations show that people need religious faith but when they retreat from it they look for another avenue which is hate politics. The chanting, repetitive slogans, some dancing and the speeches as if from a pulpit replace the religious meetings of the past for them.

Early voting has started, ignore the polls, it’s the TURNOUT that counts now. A strong indicator at this point in time is how many MORE or LESS voters from each party are turning out early compared to the previous elections.

“Democrats ranked patriotism dead last.”

And they wonder why the Americans despise the liberals.

[rktman]

We turned out last week. Told the poll worker our mailins would be destroyed by us at home. Cross cut shredded. Not that that will guarantee our in person ballots are safe. We do what we can.... And yes, turn out is key. All the non conservative messages where we are only talk bad about the conservative candidates. No mention of how “they” are going to fix these perceived problems/issues.

Hatriot #1

Please read this crucial story FOLLOW THE THREAD: Obama, El-Sayed, and the road back to Cairo October 24, 2026 | 10 days until Election Day Today Barack Obama is in Detroit, rallying for Abdul El-Sayed. I lived in Egypt for seven years. In 2011 I watched the Arab Spring from my own home. The army and barricades were in front of my house, the Muslim Brotherhood was in the streets, and a prison five miles away was emptied. Most voters in Michigan have never heard how that story connects to today's rally. Over the next four videos, I'll walk you through it: 1What I saw in Cairo in 2011, firsthand 2How the Obama administration handled the Brotherhood's rise to power 3El-Sayed's 2012 letter to Morsi, and the money tied to its fellow signers 4Why it matters on November 3 These are my own photos, my own timeline and the public record. Follow the thread. — Robin Friday, Jan. 28, 2011. It went eerily quiet. The silence was deafening. Then everything changed. These are my own photos from Jan. 30 and Feb. 1, 2011. We barricaded the road in front of my house to keep the Brotherhood from riding in on motorcycles. The army was in our streets. The prisons opened. One was five miles from my house. Mohamed Morsi walked out of one of them. Then I watched Washington open the door: the 2009 Cairo speech, formal contacts in 2011, and a congratulations call when Morsi won in 2012. Sources: White House archives, Al Jazeera, Ahram Online, State Dept. 2/5 As Morsi took over, friends got me out to Dubai. No one came for us. We found our own way out. Meanwhile, the money kept flowing to Morsi's Egypt: • $450 million in emergency cash requested for his government • F-16s delivered from an order placed under Mubarak • $190 million released by Kerry after meeting Morsi • $1.3 billion in military aid approved, though Egypt failed U.S. democracy standards From where I stood, America chose a side. Sources: Fox News/AP, Reuters, Ahram, White House archives. 3/5 Nov. 25, 2012. Days after Morsi gave himself sweeping powers, Egyptian Americans published a statement backing him. It urged him to "purge the media and the police as quickly as possible." Signer No. 33: "Dr. Abdul Rahman El-Sayed, New York." It's still online at Egypt's state-owned Al-Ahram: https://t.co/QyQhiGzWbj The New York Times reports he signed it. His campaign declined to answer questions about it. The Free Beacon, citing FEC records, reports that fellow signers have given his campaigns more than $23,000. Purge the press? That's who wants a Senate seat. 4/5 El-Sayed says he wants money out of politics. • His father-in-law, a former CAIR-Michigan president who serves on ISNA's founding committee, has given about $300,000 to the super PAC backing him (FEC records). • Fox News Digital found more than $115,000 given to his campaign by people tied to CAIR. That's individual donations, not money from CAIR itself. Today, Obama takes the stage with him in Detroit. Same thread, from Cairo 2009 to Michigan 2026. The silence was deafening. Don't stay silent now. Michigan votes Nov. 3. Know who's on your ballot.— Robin Tzi (@rdejay) October 24, 2026

Maybe el sad boy needs to invoke the woopsie goldsteinish “I don’t ‘support’ ‘support’ the MB!”

[motor_racer]

Democrats want “equality” because they feel inferior.

[rktman]

I will confirm that they are.

[central_va]

Secession . It’s coming.

[SPDSHDW]

This is the only potentially peaceful answer.
Both sides are not able to coexist peacefully anymore.
Hilariously enough both sides are blaming the other for the exact same things.

[oldtech]

Everything I am hearing lately says this is a true statement. You lose much patriotism & you don’t really have much of a country left. This seriously needs to change.

[Fledermaus]

This time let them go.
