I thought it was obvious, yes.

Seriously? You are that insecure that a question that makes you think about what your party has become makes you uncomfortable?

That is just completely foreign to me. I've run into sports fans who lived and breathed their favorite team and even they were able to be critical of their team.

Asshole, why would it make me uncomfortable? You're the one that belongs to the new totalitarian , my way or the highway Party, not me.

Most of the "good" Republicans are on msnbc, giving their commentary and political insight. They, at least, recognize the level of crazy that is the new Republican party.

Agreed. Trump's base has this amazing ability to ignore, divert from and/or denigrate anything that they perceive as causing harm to their Chosen One. This total lack of reasoning ability and the unwillingness to see how Trump has, with willful malice and spiteful design, created an atmosphere of chaos and debilitating divisiveness in order to attain and keep power in his hands is a sickness that needs healing.

The only remedy is to get Trump out of office ASAP. That his working class supporters actually believe he is doing good things for them is testament to the thorough con job Trump and the GOP has pulled on them. I see no hope for their coming to their senses in the long run. They're hooked on the "feels" their party is giving them.

What first part? Is this a quiz show? Can I win a prize?

What first part? How about the majority of the post, you know, the part you didn't bother quoting. The part where you had to actively highlight and delete, in order to not quote it.

The amount of squirming you are doing is remarkable. How long do you think you can keep it up?

Yep, you gotta keep your team pure, right?

Let me ask you; if you saw Democrats constantly kicking people out of their party or shitting on other Democrats who held different variations of the same views or who questioned some of the policies of their party until one day all that was left were party members who all share the same views, what would be your reaction?

Would it be:
A) Thats a party that has really vetted and thought through their ideas and policies so much so that it's hard to find fault with them. ie pure perfection

B) The party has created a bubble around themselves that's so impenetrable that they can't even see the flaws in their policies that's so obvious to all other observers

C) That's a party with a mission and that mission includes grabbing as much power as they can to implement their ideas and it demands total obedience from its members in order to compete its mission, even if that means doing a 180 on previously held beliefs and policies

D) The party has become so exclusive that only the smartest and brightest remain. After all, only the smartest minds can see the awesome future they wish to create and anyone who can't see that future is obviously an idiot

Do you think diversity in thought produces better solutions than group think?

Well, feel free to add your own reaction to watching the Democratic party turn into a singular, wholly united on policy, party. What would your reaction be?

So what? Is my reaction to the problems in the Democratic Party.

Napoleon said ‘Never interfere with an enemy while he’s in the process of destroying himself.’

I try to follow that advice in regards to the Democrats.

It's like you have your own private reality!

I remember 1994. I'll pit his accuracy and intellect against a forum douchebag like yourself anytime.

That’s fine, he’s counting on you to do that. He ‘predicts’ whatever he thinks his audience wants to hear and counts on you being too gulliable to recognize it.

That’s why I always say that no one has a lower opinion of conservative intelligence than conservative media. They think you’re stupid, they treat you like you’re stupid, and you prove them right time and again.

Here's something that will make Texas voters happy. Their Senator and his wife screamed at, threatened and chased out of a restaurant in Washington DC
http://www.fox5dc.com/news/local-news/sen-ted-cruz-chased-out-of-dc-restaurant

Nothing like screaming "YOU ARE NOT SAFE, WE WILL FIND YOU" at the Texas Senator and his wife.

That's not right. OTOH, it couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

When is Donald going to Texas so Ted can kiss his ass, anyway?

Not sure, the only reason i'd go in that area (Austin, I believe) is they have an In-N-Out Burger there and a See's candy outlet. I gave a $50.00 gift card to the wife a few months back and they closed the outlet closer to us.

Me too, but they're not Texans or his constituents. If you think this news will help Francis O'Rourke in Texas, you'd be wrong.

Scared, huh? Beto has it all- message, energy, momentum & a very appealing sincerity. OTOH, Cruz has the most punchable face in Texas & seems to be sweating profusely. In his place, I would be, too.
