    How many republicans do you write off Max? And despite their damages to this nation, still you see the Democrats as your pals. Funny how it works.

    I will ignore it that it was not you but a different poster I asked.

    Tell me, given where we all get our information, and we saw this same source predict it totally wrong in the last election, why trust the same media?

    I believe we republicans keep the two houses. We might get stronger in both houses.

    You see what you want to see, Robert. I am also not assclownish enough to write of 60,000,000 Republican voters as the enemy.

    None. I just think the far Right ones, like the far Left ones, are sad people who hate others since they can't bring themselves to hate themselves for their life's failures.

    The Democrats are not my "pals" but I understand why you keep pushing the false narrative that they are.

    Why do so many then misunderstand you Max. You had to be goaded to mention you do not write off republican voters.

    I prefer to see the Democrats as just misguided. I used to be in their same group. But on forums, i see them as different than moms and pops at home not worrying about Trump though he is also their president. Trump is doing much good. I see no reason to hate him.

    Here is what Max told me. He does not call either of the two major parties his pals. Does he call the losers not in the 2 majors his pals? Which are his pals?

    Agreed. This is where the Republicans have the edge; the demographic with the highest turnout are elderly white Americans. Among the lowest are the young....even though they make a lot of noise on college campuses. Noise or not, when it comes to election day, most are too busy, too apathetic or both to show up at the only poll that matters.

    Again, you see what you want to see, Robert. Goaded? Dude, why do you assume the worst about others then claim it's their fault you misunderstand them? Obviously you are not a Christian.

    i have had ugly remarks directed against me since I mentioned I voted for Trump. I then explained my choice was but Hillary (ugggg hell no) and Trump (uggg and yes) I named who I preferred.

    So why do Democrats hate me? Why do so called 3rd party types direct venom my way?

    I suspect a lot of people feel that way about you.

    You asked...

    It also doesn't help the young educated voter turnout when we have a Hillary vs. Trump scenario.

    Imagine if it had been a Romney vs. Biden (just naming two random politicians- nothing to do with when they served in office) the voter turnout would have likely looked a million times different.

    Putin is a great leader.

    He combined the best of Russian Patriotism and Internationalism. He is not anti-Semitic.

    Russia is now a First World economy.

    I'm sure many Germans felt the same way about Hitler and Italians about Mussolini...until they didn't.

    The Russian Constitution has term limits. Do you really think Putin will abide by those term limits or do you think he'll manipulate the system to remain in power?

    In Russia, President Putin got 76.7% of vote.

    Communists got only 11.8%.

    Do you believe that was an honest, uncorrupted vote? Do you really belive Putin is innocent of all the murders of journalists and expats who have voiced opposition to him?

    Putin is a ****ing low-life murderer and tin-plated dictator. The sooner a Russian Patriot removes him from power, but the better for all Russians.

    Could you stop advocating political violence?

    After the events of 1937-38, most people in Russia do not really trust Communists.

    Cruz has always been a known creep but now you can add shameless whore to his resume. I hope the Irish kid upsets him. Wasn't he involved in the JFK assassination?
