(6,857 posts)I was thinking one would have to go back before the Civil Rights Act turned Dixiecrats into Republicans. But there was that outlier.

(219 posts)put it out there many years ago, maybe 15 or more. All he wants is just one Republican to cite just one Republican policy proposal that had as it's main focus the benefit of the average American. And, yes they have no bananas.

(15,084 posts)When he was running for his seat, that he would not be making any policy pronouncements. Still hasn't.
And Kevin is too stupid and cowardly to actually govern.
So there's that.

(42,770 posts)A tax cut. Or the dollars flow to some person business that can once again make more money.
Think the biggest scam of all was the advent of HMOs. Swear they came up with it in a cocktail napkin. "How can we make more money on something every has to have?". And they bullshitted us by saying it was focusing on health

(12,463 posts)Child free,too.
Hate it when people give child free people shit.
And parents they have the gall to call us selfish.
Parents are selfish bringing more people to use up scant resources and to grow up in a climate changed world with fascists bullies and sociopaths on it.
Run by corrupted people.
A nation claiming to be a bastion of freedom where you have to work for people every day of your life
until you are over 60. Than you have a few years left to realize any dreams you had like travel or gardening or fostering cats..as age crushes your life.
Who could in thier right mind bring an innocent soul to this hellhole?
Childfree unless you count my cat Othello.

(296 posts)I don't think the GOP has come up with or backed a single bill in the last forty years that benefited 99% of Americans. Their America lives in mansions and owns Hedge Funds. Their people are certainly not the working class. Except for the morons that keep voting for them and hurting themselves in the process.

JohnnyRingo
(18,628 posts)I know, everyone else calls it cheating elections and a Cruel Mama Government, but Republicans call that "getting the things done that the people put us in office to do".
I'm sure there were more unconstitutional hijinks they pulled off, but I'm trying to stay in a happy place today.
Lonestarblue
(9,981 posts)Its government-enforced birth and voting suppression.
JohnnyRingo
(18,628 posts)There's a commercial here from some wing nut trying to ride TFG's coattails. He speaks of people who steal elections and the need to vote in person with an ID. he wraps up with the catch phrase "When leftist cheaters lose, you win".
I was thinking the reason they don't want people to vote isn't because it prevents fraud, but because "when people vote, republicans lose", a fact that has held for decades.

wiggs
(7,812 posts)has managed to convince anyone that they are interested in governing? And why don't dems point that out every day?
I hope someone aside from Carville gets on fire with the plain truth about the gop...and that people actually see it. Maybe polarization and hate precludes a change already?

(65,173 posts)Lower taxes for the rich and corporations, rile up certain groups like racists and the anti-choice, and FREE-DUM. Nothing there at all that helps.
calimary
(81,238 posts)Their whole mentality is based on that. Rugged individualism! Do got yourself! Take care of yourself. Nobody owes you any help.
And damn you, why should we have to help you? Its not OUR problem! Figure it out for yourself!
And if you cant, its YOUR fault!
Or
Youre just lazy.
Or
Youre just looking for a handout.
Republicans. And theyll be first and loudest to say how staunchly they believe in Our Lord Jesus.
