    The most beneficial outcome for America would be for the dismal duopoly to finally occupy themselves with doing what was beneficial to America.

    Then you won't have any problem providing the link to the post containing the question you never asked, will you?

    So let's see what you have!

    Post #76: May I suggest you look up the work 'projected'? You use it a lot, but I wonder if you actually know what it means.

    Did you look it up? Do you know what it means?

    Exactly. Trump was elected due to those laws and policies. He was nominated in the first place as a reaction to the failures of the GOP establishment to respond to the GOP base.

    Thank you for establishing that you obviously do NOT know what a question means because what you posted above was a STATEMENT. Ending it with a question mark is INCORRECT USAGE of punctuation.

    So yes, it is PROJECTION on your part to accuse others of not knowing what something means when your own (ab)use of punctuation clearly demonstrates that you are the one who lacks the relevant subject matter knowledge.

    And you still have no comprehension what a question can be formatted as, how it can be asked, and that improper use of a word continues to show that you willfully misuse it.

    How sad.

    Thank you for establishing that you do not understand how you ended up in your self inflicted predicament.

    Have a nice day!

    Statistics don’t bear out what is being claimed, that as one ages one becomes more conservative. The number of registered Democrats and the number of registered Republicans, and the ratio between them, within a generational grouping, changes very little over time. Most people who were strong liberals in their youth remain strong liberals in they senior years. Those who were strong conservatives in their youth tend to remain strong conservatives in their senior years.

    From my point of view, I would have to get plenty old, with significant cognitive decline to suddenly think conservatism has any benefit to me.

    Yet when one looks at the demographics, one sees that US has three political parties, the Democratic Party, The Republican Party, and the unaffiliated. In most elections, the party faithful vote along party lines so it is the unaffiliated in the middle who decide elections. It is the low information voter who sways in the wind, who decides our elections. If there is growth in Republican voters, it comes from the wishy washy middle, not from the Democratic faithful.

    Who would that be? The 2012 study showed republicans to be better informed than democrats or independents.

    They also claim that Blacks are all jumping on the Trump bandwagon. Yet in the latest poll I saw, that among Blacks, 89% wanted him impeached and gone.

    Conservatives keep going on about the fabled Democratic rush to switch to Republicans. Yet throughout the history of our country, that only happened once. In the decade following LBJ’s civil rights legislation there was a shift to the Republican Party, along racial lines. But the rising Evangelicalism within the Republican Party caused a shift of the college educated to the Democratic Party.

    Nope the rising hubris in modern man and the belief that we could do it all ourselves caused that switch and the country is much the worse for it in every way.

    I have been watching the Republican response to Trump’s impeachment. In fact, to just about everything Trump does. Better informed is the last term I would use.

    The most beneficial thing that could happen in November, not just for Dems but for the country, is if voters made informed........fact based decisions about who and what to vote for. That would mean voting for candidates who support doing something about climate change. It would mean voting for the principle that a trial without witnesses and documents is not just a farce but a repudiation of what this republic stands for and anyone who thinks otherwise is a threat to the country. It would mean voting with the recognition those who seek to divide us along ethnic, religious, and racial lines makes us weaker and more vulnerable as a nation.

    It was the horror of having an only half White man ascend to the presidency and homosexuals being allowed to marry. That and the looming legalization of marihuana, it was just so much to take, the down fall of America as Obama let the Dreamers do more than just dream.

    You have claimed you debunked something 175 times in the last two years. I have yet to find where you actually debunked anything.
    I have objective proof. What do you have?

    I did a word search. You used the word debunked 175 times since Jan 2018. I have yet to find where you debunked anything.
