The school system and media has dumbed down the majority of the electorate, by design.

>> How in the hell can the Republicans be losing to these people?

Good question! “These people” hard-working, dedicated to their collectivist cause, and united.
(The fact that their cause is evil and damaging is irrelevant.)

Generalizing, and relatively speaking, we individualists on the right (nominally, the Republicans) are fractured and lazy — or at least grudging of giving our time to PARICIPATING in our government starting at the local level.

The spoils of government “of the people, by the people, for the people” go to the “people” who get off their asses and show up!

Keyboard warrioring in the echo chamber counts, but not for much, really.

Because the Republicans refuse to meaningfully cut spending as well, starting with the largest expense, Social Security/Medicare/Medicad.

Every time I hear stuff like this from the DemoMarxists I’m reminded of what Trump said in 2016: “We have to get the stupid people out of politics”

SO TRUE!!!!! And good God, do we have a lot.

I don’t live far from where Bezos lived before his divorce and where Bill Gates built his 65,000 sq ft mansion. LOTS of money here and still this state is unbelievably greedy..

It’s just never enough for government.

Because they are not actual Republicans. They are part of the unitary. Remember Kevin McCarthy was cutting deals with Joe Biden and gave him everything he wanted? Matt Gaetz called him out on it so we got rid of him.

I don't trust Mike Johnson. Even if he's a good guy, it's likely the Deep State may have got him where they wanted him. Everyone is weak. Mike is human. He's no different than anybody else.

We are now paying $$$ 1 trillion interest payments on our debt alone, doesn’t anyone else see something wrong with that?

That is $1,000,000,000,000…..in interest.

Because half the population are too dumb to understand how taxes work to undermine the economy and make things worse for them and everybody else. Should be grounds for insisting that voters take economics 101 in schools and be able to answer questions before they're allowed to vote. (Yeah, never gonna happen on the democrat side).

Apparently these clowns never studied Economics nor heard of the Laffer Curve.

Federal Tax revenue went UP under Reagan and Trump when taxes were cut.

Spending other peoples’ money is like a meth addiction to these people.

The Democrat’s idea of being fiscally responsible is to raise taxes, because they always believe that whatever they want to spend other people’s money on is right and good.

They don’t believe in cutting anything because of their ideals.

And if you don’t agree with what they want to spend your money on then you are a misogynist, sexist, racist, homophobe, that wants to starve poor people to death.
