What does conservative “leaning” mean in this sense? Does it mean that they still believe in about half the constitution or something?

If they’re a politician and they have a (D) next to their name, then they are my enemy, no matter which way they ‘lean’. Many Senate (R)s are my enemies too.

Nice left wing propaganda you got going there.

Vast majority of people below 35 lean left.
Conservative movement....face it is dead when current old folk are gone

Chuckle.
Believe it or not, I was a hard core leftist activist when I was younger too.
Once you get married, have a mortgage, get kids, bring them up, pay taxes etc, your outlook on life changes considerably.
Nothing new in young people being lefties. Been like that long before you were born. One almost always changes with age and responsibility.

I see the replies on anything political on Facebook 2:1 against conservatives unless it’s a conservative leaning page

Facebook huh?
How much did Bloomberg spend on Facebook ads. What good did that do him?
Facebook is of little consequence.

< Look at the protest-self loathing white guilt.

The “protests” (in reality RIOTS) don't mean sh*t outside the big deep blue state cities like New York which are being torn apart. They give zero indication of how people ard going to vote in South Dakota.

It will be a miracle if Trump is reelected. Shot economy, riots and pandemic have doomed Trump.

Nope.
The riots, coronavirus deaths and economic destruction are mostly in deep blue NY/NJ, MI etc. Most of rural America counties are just fine . There are thousands of counties with zero coronavirus deaths or just a few. Almost all of them are Trump counties.

People want a change.

In New York yes.
Everyone, even the leftists are calling for DeBlasio to resign.

Paging Senor Basillio Ramos, Senor Ramos pick up the white courtesy phone. Your state is ready for the Reconquista!

For the uninitiated: just read Matt Bracken's book, Domestic Enemies: The Reconquista.

Can we give the state back? I could tolerate 49 stars on the flag.

Re: “Vast majority of people below 35 lean left.”

Only because of ethnicity.

White voters under age 30 consistently vote 50%-55% Republican.

They have been voting that way since 1968.

The problem?

Approximately half of the new 18 year old voters each year are Black, Hispanic, or Asian, and they vote 75%-80% Democrat.

Republican immigration policies were political suicide.

Win or lose in 2020, Trump will be the last Republican president in American history.

A low turn-out primary with substantial funding by ultra-left progressive candidates.

This is not the general election. It is much like the Ocasio-Cortez primary, but in Conservative districts.

There is a good chance for Republican pick-ups in these districts.

I assume a big chunk of New Mexico's government budget comes from oil fracking in the Permian Basin.

Oil closed at $37 a barrel today.

Very few frackers can make money at that price.

Many of the frackers would have hedged their production for 6-12 months.

After those hedges expire, no fracker can make money at $37.

Mix in the COVID Lock Down Panic, and New Mexico is headed for an economic catastrophe.

No reasonable American would vote for a Democrat.

Reasonable Americans are in a tiny minority today. In fact, i would say Americans are in a minority today. And there will be less tomorrow than they are today.

“White voters under age 30 consistently vote 50%-55% Republican.

Not anymore. My nephew work for the Republican party in his state. He is div manager of 6-7 counties. He sees the stats. It is a purple state but his area is red.

He said maybe 10-15%,maybe 25% in certain locals of young 18-30 year olds today are conservative. They have all been indoctrinated.

Look at the protest in all the cities.

“I’m a realist. No President in history has been attacked like this 24/7. “

All those media attacks on Nixon and rioters in the streets helped McGovern win the presidency in 1972. For sure.
