Do you not think it's odd that republicans have such dedicated voters while democrats have such non-committal voters? Why do you think that is?
As late as 1980s, the GOP had a Liberal wing. Once Reagan got his claws firmly embedded the Right was able to marginalize or remove them.
There's an old saying in US politics; Democrats fall in love and GOP fall in line. GOP will vote for any candidate with an R next to their name, and the Dems want someone they can get excited about.
I will never vote for any republican as long as I live. Haven't done so in quite a few years.
Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people...but the people are retarded.
People usually get what they deserve, unless they deserve what they get. I sure hope the young ones all fired up (and rightly so) about the situation in Gaza also come to realize that by withholding their vote for Biden, or voting for a 3rd party candidate without a chance of winning, they are guaranteeing that Trump will take office, and if they think things are bad now, just wait till he starts (or rather continues) dismantling democracy. Then they will never have free speech nor the right to protest again.
Ok Boomer.
How original, I am devastated
Don't worry, you will be once you start to see how your generation will be remembered in history.
Yes, we shall see, won't we? For you, too.
The fact you have any confidence Boomers are going to remembered as anything but a dog shit generation is crazy to me. You all have systematically removed every benefit you ever enjoyed. There is no version of history which remembers you well.
At worst history will remember millennials as not doing enough. But I would much rather be remembered as being weak than being a bully.
