There is nothing like watching people who profess a belief in democracy getting upset over populism.

Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101 -
Oh no! The people are voting in their own interest... It's the end of democracy.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House.

Well I am an advocate of voting for what is best for the nation, state, or municipality. If I actively vote against the best for my area I am not really voting in my own interest, except in the shortest of terms. Voting oneself benefits is part of the downfall of our republic.Originally posted by Meh Gerbil View PostMicah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?Comment

Well that's sad to see happen. For anyone genuinely concerned about the well-being of others, it's always sad to see people making their lives worse for themselves out of ignorance.Originally posted by Meh Gerbil View Post"I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

Yes, how dare people think for themselves! They should let liberals do the thinking for then. You know, for their own good.Originally posted by Dimbulb View Post

On this rare occasion I agree with Starlight. When I vote I vote for what I think is best for the nation (or local governments) as a whole, even if it does not add the most to me personally.Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostYes, how dare people think for themselves!

you misspelled "breitbart", period, and as far as I can tell you and the rest of the whackjob liberal squad here spend more time on Breitbart than anyone elseOriginally posted by Roy View Post"As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.

Christianity and liberalism are mutually exclusive. The latter was shaped in large part to destroy the former."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12
