There is only 1 thing voters dislike more than Democrats

Last month, Illinois U.S. Senate candidate Juliana Stratton (the state's progressive lieutenant governor) ran an ad with a not-so-subtle message regarding our president: "F--- Trump." Stratton herself doesn't say this, but she lets multiple other people say it for her. The crude campaign stunt got me thinking: Is this really what Democratic voters want? (That primary election is March 17, as I write this, so it's TBD if her messaging worked.) There's a growing disconnect in America. As our political parties move further to their respective extremes, most voters fall somewhere in between. Whether Republican or Democrat, the majority of Americans simply want what's best for their families and for their country. The Democratic Party is having an especially hard time connecting with its constituents, as witnessed by a steady stream of polls showing just how bad off it is.

It's not what Democrats want.
Is video of Republicans bombing people who were peacefully exercising their first amendment right to freedom of speech and assembly with diarrhea from a fighter jet what Republicans want?

Also, still waiting on you to tell us how much Howard Schultz has paid in income tax to Washington. I've asked you a few times to clarify your statement and you've so far avoided doing so. You've said before you don't lie so I figured you must have had those numbers handy and ready to present to support your statement.

Bellringer, I assume you aren't actually interested in discussing this article since you offered none of your own commentary on it.

I'll use this opportunity to ask if people think US intelligence failed so badly that Trump was serious when he recently said in response to a question about Iran attacking neighboring states that "They weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Nobody expected that. We were shocked."
If you don't think US intelligence failed at that level then why did Trump make such a statement? Was he simply lying to try to avoid blame? Is he of such diminished capacity that he doesn't remember being told that such attacks were an expected reaction from Iran? Some other reason?

What about the polling CorkyDaBigot?

Slaughter the source all you want, but the content of the poll is her focus, and you really don't seem to have any thoughts on that.

Isn't that all the US intelligence does is fail? But to the point, if a country wanted TheBOMB, it should at least behave like a sane country when using missiles. What Iran did is make it clear that if it had the bomb, it would use it in a spastic "kill'em all" sort of way.

Did you think Iran would attack its neighbors? I don't recall you saying they would. It would be reasonable for Iran to attack US/Israel military installations around the globe, and in Israel and the US. I don't believe anyone thought Iran would send drones to kill civilians indiscriminately in neighboring countries, did you?

Did you hear about the 400 people killed yesterday? Why do you think we haven't?

More idiocy, same source.

Perhaps you should look up MAD, Mutually Assured Destruction, and learn something for a change.

What you are claiming is that, considering Israel has 100 to 200 nuclear warheads, that Iran is what?

Suicidal? Let's see your evidence for that; that before your Hero Trump started another War, Iran was going to commit national suicide by nuking Israel.

Especially since their efforts at nuclear weapons were, 'Obliterated!' last year, according to DJT, who never lies when he whispers in your ear.

As you said the other day to me, nothing personal, but as well informed as you claim to be, you miss an awful lot of stuff. Santorum was, so to speak, all over the place.

Santorum, Michelle Bachman . . . crazier than hell, but probably mostly harmless. As would MTG and Boobert be, if it wasn't for Trump.

My favorite Santorum story, and I read about this in a positive fashion in a book I was working on for some right-wing Catholics, was the family riding around with their unborn but out of the womb fetus. Same types of folks have birthday parties for miscarried fetuses (on what would have been their birthdays) long into their siblings-to-be childhoods. Really sick stuff.

Scroll back up. Censored and I were joking about the naming of a bizarre sexual maneuver the Santorum'. I remember the guy moderately well. He tried running for POTUS in 2012. Before that he was a Senator.

16. Frothy rectal output after ---- sex. That's Santorum.

Not sure what bizarre maneuver you're talking about. Perhaps I'm behind the times myself.

There is only 1 thing voters dislike more than Democrats

Based on the popular vote of the last 5 presidential elections, seems like what voters dislike more than the Democrats are the Republicans.

It's why the GOP are trying their hardest to figure out how to cheat in the midterms.

Closing polls locations early and eliminating voting stations all together worked in Texas.

Let's see what the rest of America can do.

That's election denialism.

"That's election denialism."

The Feds want State information so the Feds can control state elections.

Didn't you used to fancy yourself a Constitutional expert?

What would you be saying if Obama were wanting state information on federal elections, and only from red states?

#21 | Posted by Danforth at 2026-03-19 01:19 PM

@#21 ... The Feds want State information so the Feds can control state elections. ...

Exactly.

Then I also wonder what other Fed databases and non-Fed will that extensive state election personal data be linked to?

For starters, Pres Trump will have a list of all those who registered as a Democrat. Democrats, who he has called the enemy ...

What a riot.

"election denialism" is EXACTLY what you're going to be carrying water for, in about 8-9 months.

If "We'll leave Minnesota if you give us your voter registration information" didn't set off alarm bells, the guy guilty of "election denialism" is in your mirror.

Uh huh. I've such a track record of that by repeatedly saying Biden who: in 2020. But go keep biting my ankles and echoing Stacy Abrahams that she had her election stolen from her. It's what you do.
