Hillary Clinton is a conservative lmao
We going further left and you ain't stopping the train! It's already left the station! Choo choo! Time to catch up with the rest of civilization!
LMAO. Leftists are trying to copy the conservatives on this one. And it ain't working.
Conservatives say: Here's Trump
Leftists: We don't want Trump, we want someone who's in our camp... not even a moderate D is good enough.
Conservatives: Fuck you, here's four more years of Trump.
We on the left are not going to be able to draw a line in the sand and make demands. Mostly because the left has been spineless for so many years, even those of you who to claim have some backbone.
Coming on the internet and crying about Trump every day proves how thin, and therefore weak, your facade is. I don't believe you. I don't buy your act.
I'm confident that rational, left of center D will win the day, eventually, and that, at some point, we'll be through with this far left, SJW bullshit. Keep on keeping on though. See where it gets you.
Funnily enough, you'll call me a conservative for saying things like this. I laugh at it, because actual conservative folks I know lump me in with the likes of you, which, to be honest, I probably have more in common with you than them, ideologically, but still, the comparison isn't fair.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.

I'd take a moderate in either party or a third party. I'm not greedy. I'm just tired of extremism.

Are there any moderate republicans? As in "moderates" who don’t enthusiastically ape the snarling extremists just because they are afraid of the extremists?

If there aren't, then I guess there are slim odds of me supporting a Republican.

Are you talking to me, or a caricature you made up in your head? Crying about Trump every day? SJW bullshit? What are you on about? Do you read my posts? Lmao. You ought to start treating people like individuals with nuanced opinions, or you're guilty of the same crap "SJWs" are.
I'm talking about fiscal policy, first and foremost. Is Biden the shoe-in for the Democratic nominee anymore? No, those touting more progressive economic policy are beating him. Why?
The curve of history is liberal, right? Particularly with social issues, and now we're seeing a demand to transform the way we look at the economy. Don't see why it wouldn't keep going that way. The party of "let's go back to the old days" usually loses, then switches the time period of the "old days." Conservatives in 2035 might even support the ACA, who knows? They've already conceded on protecting pre-existing conditions.

He's showing indications of senility.
It was a successful military operation under difficult conditions and the brave troops who accomplished it deserve praise and gratitude.

I do. But when their facts have nothing to do with the subject - I don't.
Nobody - myself included - is trying to sing praises of President Trump. I am not endorsing his fitness to the presidency. I am not defending any of his bad behavior.
I am pointing out what political cunts the ( D )s are being about this operation - which was TEXTBOOK PERFECT - including President Trump keeping a lid on information on a need to know basis. He probably did just get lucky.
But it doesn't excuse Pelosi and the others of her ilk for going straight for Trump's nutsack. It's simply more partisan bullshit.
Courtesy of FakeMessiah:
Quote: Wrote:Trump actively tried to derail the 3 biggest things that helped take out ISIS leader al-Baghdadi
But a more detailed look at the operation suggests the success came in spite of – and not because of – Trump.
The strike wouldn’t have been possible without three key factors, all of which Trump has tried to derail: a US troop presence in Syria; the Kurdish allies who were abandoned when Trump withdrew US troops; and the US intelligence community that Trump has spent three years attacking.

How is that not a relevant counterpoint?
