Guest Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 17 minutes ago, Lionel Hutz said: No, because Trump is not the only problem. There are hundreds of more intelligent Trump-like people in the GOP running things. If Trump doesn't win and another Republican takes office, it would just be the same. With this I'm not saying the ideology of the GOP is bad, I'm saying the way things are being done is bad. Corrupt politicians, bribery, powerful families are found on both sides, but extremism, racism, xenophobia, homphobia, and all of the other scare tactics are curiously only present within the GOP, and are used by them as a way to scare, as the name "scare tactic" says. And that's not only the tip of the iceberg either. I can't vote for a party that would sell their country to another nation for just a few bucks and influence, and I can't vote for a party that believes the market will "control itself", which is absolutely ridiculous since the primary focus of the market is making profits, and things like Nestle, banana republics, and oil companies ruining the planet, amongst other things, are a thing because of the desire for profits being bigger than the desire to better society. I also can't vote for people who will vote in Congress and do things while in office not in response to the needs of their citizens but of the highest corporate bidder, like what happened with the fusion between AT&T and TimeWarner and with T-Mobile. No way. We are not just robots wanting Trump to be out, we want this whole charade to stop. I agree with everything you said, and I think people who believe in "anything but Trump" because he makes them feel icky inside are privileged people who are not really effected by politics or any of this. Everything you mentioned including racism is present in the Democratic party but in a socially accepted way that is very passive aggressive and done legally. Its usually done in the name of helping others! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some of those things before and suddenly I see Chris Evans retweeting him, that’s how I found out he’s now against Trump. It’s silly how easily people forgive and forget.

Some of them are just as bad as Trump, maybe far worse in ideologies and practices. The bigger problem is that a lot of these individuals were on the Trump bandwagon for the longest and now want to play both sides of the fence—the minute this guy gets sidelined he’ll be back to loving Trump nonstop.

Yeah just like how progressives started defending Hilary and shaming everyone who refuse to vote for her. But yeah I do agree with you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geopang 4,831 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 What a joke. He has to be stupid to run against Trump. He’s not even going to show up on the polls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I mean can Trump just ignore republican primaries and not debate anyone because he knows he will win anyway? and then debate the democratic nominee after the democratic primaries end.

Lol Thats not true, progressives are the only ones I like in American politics and if I was American, I would easily vote for a progressive. Give me an example of me being against progressives because it almost never happens. But yes here I did criticize alot of them for shaming people who did not want to vote Hilary.

Nightwing 518 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Well, it's true... we can't take four more years of Trump. That doesn't mean that he's fit to be the one to take his place, though. The ideologies of Republicans scare the hell out of me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
