Sorry, but nationally and historically since Reagan, the truth remains. If you vote for the GOP you are voting against your own self interests and you are allowing one class to dictate to you. And again, this isn't just about you, my response is to all GOP supporters.
If GOP economic polices worked, nobody in any zip code would be bitching. The only thing GOP polices do is make CEOs and Wall Street investors richer. They do not help red states or blue states, city or rural workers.
Nobody is falsely playing victim except the orange turd and billiionaires.
Nope, I may be voting against your interests, not mine. You have no idea what my self interests are.
You know very little about politics/business except playing the victim card. You certainly know nothing about the local politics where I live.
If it wasn't about me why was the post repeatedly filled with "you"?
Edit: Now I'm Ayn Rand? What the fuck is wrong with you? You sound like an insane SJW.
You mentioned you were not happy with the "national" aspect, I would assume you are not happy with the orange bully. But if you are still supporting state GOP houses or govs who helped put the bully in office, sorry, what do you want me to say?
No I am not a SJW, and that is simply another bullshit code word to excuse ignoring the big picture.
We have already seen in American history, where political scapegoating and vilification goes. It is what cased a civil war because asshole religious bigots didnt want to give up owning other humans. It was the same tactic used by sexist Christian male politicians to try to keep women like Susan B Anthony from voting. It is the same political vilification that tried to keep segregation and got Martin Luther King Jr murdered.
And this is not unique to American history. Political vilification, and hyper nationalism was used by Germany, Italy and Japan to justify scapegoating the rest of the world.
The asshole in the WH is beyond politics. He is attempting to destroy everything any western pluralistic society should value. He doesn't give one flying fuck how he divides rural, suburban and urban voters. He even ATTACKED McCain, whom stuck up for Obama, you know, a war hero.
And judging by your kneejerk ressponses here, I bet you don't even know, or ignore the REAL reason the orange turd attacks black NFL players. No, it is not about the flag or the anthem. BACK in the 1980s the orange turd used to own a USFL football team, when the league folded, the orange turd wanted to buy into the NFL, but the owners, seeing what he did with his failed business, not that that was the only one, the NFL told him NO!
Now again, if you are going to support the GOP as it currently is, in any aspect even local, do not ignore that they are NOT the party of Lincoln or Teddy. Do not ignore that the parties flipped in the 60s and 70s with Nixon's southern strategy.
My late mother who died last year was a MOSTLY lifetime voting republican. It was frustrating to me to talk to her knowing we agreed on 90% of everything only to have her shut down when I asked her why she voted for that party. That was a woman who put me through college and bought me a house. But even she put her foot down when the orange bully started his run. She voted for Bernie in the primaries. That said alot to me knowing her history.
And it isn't being a SJW one bit to ask a survivor of Warsaw Poland whom was my mother's roommate at the nursing home what she thought of the orange turd. I'll give you a clue, that survivor of the Holocaust hated him, and rightfully so.
So if you think splitting the baby works in the context of his toxic rhetoric being the head of the party and our highest office, nope, not going to fly.
