I still say independents are Leftist who would rather not face the fact they are.
It’s like on C-Span when they have Rs, Ds, and Is calling in.
This Is repeat the Ds talking points 80-90% of the time.
Demonrat call banks. They’ve been doing that $hit on C-Span since the ‘90s. Same regurgitated talking points on all 3 lines, “I USED to be a Republican but... (insert Communist talking point here).”
C-Span shouldn’t even take live calls to weed out those heavily phony leaning ones.
You may have something there about that. I remember hearing Rush say once that Is are nothing more than libs who don’t have the guts to admit they are libs.
Bullbleep. When I registered to vote fifty years ago, I did so as an independent...and I have retained that status the for the entire fifty years. And I ain’t no liberal. I don’t register “Republican” because the ‘Pubbies aren’t conservative enough.
