Republicans have only recently woken up from this due to the absolute madness coming out of the left.
I was a democrat who voted for Biden and has only donated to democrats though I likely never will again.
- zeruch 5y agoNah.
- satronaut 5y agowhat's nah? did the democrats vote yes for different reasons than the republicans? What were their reasons then? Otherwise, why the nah?
- zeruch 5y agoNah is a blanket response to the parent post of hyperbole and faux-objectivity. His whole post was ridiculous; the GOP has always been just as, if not moreso ready to trade ANYTHING for "security" (security theater mostly), usually if there is a correlating premise of ensuring electoral results in their favor, which they usually beat the Dems over the head with as the "national security" party. With the last half decade of debacles under Trump, the "national security" moniker is arguably up for grabs, but the Dems are half-assed and flailing and the GOP is a viscous joke looking for a punchline (hence why I left the latter to go independent, since the former is a lousy home, even if they aren't a traitorous one).
