I typically voted democrat in elections, but this was the first time I voted a straight ticket rather than selecting each candidate individually. Anyone who puts their name to the Republican ticket nowadays might as well be waiving an “I support treason” flag. Because anyone who is a Republican on the ballot is implicitly saying they support Trump.
You're the people with a dear leader obsession bro. You're the authoritarian fascists destroying America. You are far closer to north Korea than us. I don't think they love pedos as much as you guys tho
Amen! Same! And I even wrote all my Congress people and representatives to let them know I would be doing this and why.
Some of the responses I got back were really lame. Such as I brought up the Canadian tariffs and the response was my congressperson was doing what was best for the people. Utter BS.
Damn straight. I'm a fiscal conservative. Never voted red since I saw where the money was going, but I really do hope Republicans can get back their fiscal roots.
I really do t understand this. The Republicans have consistently failed at being fiscally conservative. They continually jack up the debt time and time again.
Now that you are wiser, perhaps take a look at the economy and fiscal policies passed under red and blue administrations of the near past. You will see the democrats and their policies have benefited you and the economy more than the republicans. I'm not asking you to change your values. I'm asking you to revaluate who truly aligns with your values.
Yup. I consider leveling the playing field to be better for the economy. Still, I do see limits.
When we look at global economics, we are truly behind on research and development. I work in electronics, and it's a shitshow compared to Chinese technology.
So, I'd focus our finances on education and specialize in fields that would make us competitive. And that includes taking down the moats built up by our current technofascists. Loosen patent laws, invest in up and comers rather than tax subsidies for wasteful megacorps.
Please don't let it be a one time thing. Someone said the country defaults to Republicans and it's so true. Don't default, choose with facts and history
What exactly is the point of this response? If we're going to rid ourselves of the MAGA disease it's going to take coming together, including Republicans who want better from their party, to push them out.
It can't be easy to openly say you're a Republican willing to vote Blue, but we absolutely need them if we're going to be successful. I for one appreciate the honesty and the vote.
They've always been heinous. Idk why you say that as if it's gonna salvage some semblance of respect here. Screw anyone who's ever voted for the Republicans.

Already dropped off my ballot. As a registered Republican, I voted straight blue. Sick of the MAGAs.
