The Republicans are going to need to learn to take the gloves off.
Only an unobservant person would consider mcconnell, romney, collins, etc. conservatives.
At best they’re liberal to moderate
In the sixties our courts were telling us that burning and desecrating the American flag was protected speech. Now we’re being told that desecrating a rainbow flag is hate speech, even though the rainbow flag doesn’t represent a nation but is a political symbol. The tolerance of political conservatives will be their downfall, and Marx told us so. He said the capitalists would sell the rope the Marxists will hang them with.
“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” - Alinsky
That’s why I like people like Steve Bannon and Matt Gaetz.
These people are supposed to be the best AMERICANS America has. The far left is consistently kicking their asses.
Then they run unopposed and when they get into office, blend into the uniparty where they do maximum damage by .. doing nothing.
I think they can but just won’t.
I agree, I see very few politicians that are willing to actually fight for the American people and this country. They will fight for their kickbacks though it seems. I’m done with all politicians at this point.
They’ve had plenty of time to learn. They don’t want to learn.
“Time and again, progressives take the initiative and mount political and PR offensives against conservatives, rocking them back on their heels”
Seems to me this pretty much describes demon possession because their initiatives always seem to end up producing something evil ... like abortion on demand ... LGBTQ+ “rights” ... gender transition surgery for minors.
Most conservatives I know have no interest in government — period.
We talk about freedom and capitalism, but we made the Chinese Communists rich with our free trade deals.
We complain about the bias of the media, but we continue to pour our money into their coffers with our TV subscriptions for the privilege of being entertained by them.
And we complain about the bias of tech companies, but we refuse to search out alternatives because we don't want to give up the convenience of same day deliver.
I could go on, but this meme says it all.
“Most conservatives I know have no interest in government — period.”
Agreed.
What irritates me is when folks who claim to be conservative keep trying to “conserve” leftist victory after leftist victory.
Correction: the Anti communists are going to have to put lead pipes inside the gloves and wrap them with barbed wire. And then learn to love the blood and guts of political war.
the phony war has gone on long enough its time to inflict pain on the enemy.
It is because we are generally nice people willing to “live and let live” but only to a point.
Its genetically impossible for the Republican party to grow a spine. Which is why Trump has hijacked it with MAGA and essentially created a third party.
Conservatives are afraid to take State power to destroy their enemies, at least since 1945.
The Left is not.
The outcome is predictable unless something changes.
Republicans are lazy. They are unprepared during house hearings, they don’t bother to work to get voters to the polls, they don’t fight for a budget. Lazy!
Democrats are evil but the are prepared during house and senate hearings. They go up and down streets getting voters. They don’t say, “let’s vote on Election Day like it’s 1973.” It striking the difference.
