A Christian pastor who votes in lockstep with the party that hates organized religion, and whose chief concern is pushing neo-racial ideology. Polarization is a hell of a drug.


So the other guy is more aligned with your beliefs ?

I said a part of republicans not all, maybe it's half, maybe it's 1/3. Nothing new, we have same kind of problem in France or in any advanced democratic country.
Most of them don't even properly understand the consequences of their votes, most of them are super low educated AND/OR openly fascist.

Are they representing a majority ? NO.
Are they ready to take power by force ? YES.

Are they deserving to be jailed when trying ? YES.



So you are inferring the capitol rioters were trying to place themselves in power? And, do what?

They were a mix of manipulated idiots, violent people, fascists, and some organizers/silent laisser faire (Trump & related in high position)
It was chaotic, dangerous, and they shit the whole bed since hostile foreign powers are now even more sure they can break it from the inside.

Basically a threat in all aspects.

when was that? these sort of issues go back as far as Bush v Gore 2000 in my memory.

now adays if u have good working machines and get an initial tally done by voters inputting the paper, then polls close, and the workers do a 2nd and 3rd confirmation count that night, you then get told your poll workers are DNC plants and the machines are Venezuelan commie stuff.

Trump in his 2024 announcement speech called for paper only hand counted ballots AND day of closing of the races. pure idiocy and he was met with applause.

The only big big elections I was cognizant for before 2020 were 2012 and 2016, and I remember both being a lot shorter - less than a day to know. Maybe I am wrong.

2000 was when America put on a comedy show for the entire planet. The second in just 2 years. Good times.

you really don't know or your just a troll on the Jan 6th as "reasonable political discourse"
They were trying to scare Pence into not certifying the election, therefore creating doubt and most likely some sort of legal debacle of did/does the VP have the right to do so. He doesn't
Also look at all the election deniers across the country. Each state takes days/weeks to 3x check the vote, as R cry about the delay and some dead idiot from Venezuela, or some other idiot that sells pillow's has all the secrets.
You understand yet? Or you waiting until ALL faith is broken with voting for literally ZERO reason behind it. I wish they would of shot them all so I could just type.

We have had pages long arguments about January 6. This was posted in extremely bad faith.
