The Supreme Court rules 9-0 to strike down Colorado's attempt to keep former president Donald Trump off of the presidential ballot in their state.

One should probably see a 9-0 ruling (which includes all of the Liberal judges) as an indication of the fact that one has gone overboard in one's willingness to bend the law for the sake of partisan goals.

Today I learned there are people who blame Joe Biden for Roe v. Wade being overturned "on his watch." Which is overwhelmingly, frustratingly uninformed. So here's some education

The current day GOP.

[ngdrb]

What has happened to the Republican Party? Why have they abandoned all their principles and beliefs and become so extreme? 

In recent years, the Republican Party has undergone a significant transformation, veering away from its traditional principles and embracing a more extreme ideology. This shift has left many questioning the party's direction and has drawn criticism from both sides of the political aisle.

The Abandonment of Traditional Republican Values

Historically, the Republican Party has been known for its commitment to fiscal responsibility, limited government, and a strong emphasis on individual liberties. However, in recent times, the party has seemingly abandoned these core tenets in favor of a more divisive and polarizing agenda.

Fiscal Responsibility

Once a hallmark of the Republican Party, fiscal responsibility has taken a backseat to other priorities. The party's stance on deficit reduction and responsible spending has become increasingly inconsistent, with many Republicans supporting policies that contribute to growing national debt.

Limited Government

The principle of limited government, which advocates for restraining the size and scope of the federal government, has been overshadowed by an expansionist approach to executive power and centralized authority.

Individual Liberties

The party's traditional commitment to individual liberties, such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right to privacy, has been called into question by some of the party's more extreme positions on issues like immigration and civil liberties.

The Rise of Extremism

The Republican Party's shift towards extremism can be attributed to several factors, including the growing influence of fringe groups, the polarization of political discourse, and the party's embrace of populist rhetoric.

Influence of Fringe Groups

Fringe groups with extreme ideologies have gained a stronger foothold within the Republican Party, shaping its policies and rhetoric. This influence has contributed to the party's move away from its traditional values and towards more extreme positions.

Polarization of Political Discourse

The increasingly polarized nature of political discourse in the United States has played a role in the Republican Party's shift toward extremism. As the divide between the two major parties has widened, the Republican Party has become more ideologically entrenched and less willing to compromise.

Embrace of Populist Rhetoric

The party's adoption of populist rhetoric, which often focuses on creating divisions and appealing to emotions rather than facts, has further fueled the trend toward extremism.

Conclusion

The Republican Party's transformation has left many questioning its future direction and its ability to appeal to a broad range of voters. As the party continues to grapple with internal divisions and external pressures, it remains to be seen whether it will return to its traditional values or continue down the path of extremism.

To take an idea from Innuendo Studios “The Cost of Doing Business” and extrapolate it to the election results:

We have two parties in america. The racists, and the party that opposes them. There is no non racist.

Replace racism with sexism, homophobia, islamophobia, etc. At the end of the day, it always feels like we have an objectively bad party and the one that ONLY feels moral to vote for bc they arent the main party.

Yes, republicans are the main party in america, they call all of the shots. Republicans hate immigrants, dems oppose. Republicans attempt to load the courts with conservatives to overturn rights, the dems oppose. Democrats rarely have an original idea, they are just contrarians to whatever the republicans say.

If you do not believe me, check in with this idea in a couple months, when Trump takes an overtly pro-Israel stance, and the dems take an anti-Israel stance within 24 hours.

I need everyone to FUCKING remember this next cycle, so the democrats actually grow a spine and attempt to have an opinion, any opinion.

I didn’t want to say anything before, as I know for a fact Kamala was the correct option. Objectively, she is the lesser of the two evils. Now that the race is over, Im gonna say it. Fuck her, fuck biden, fuck Clinton, there hasnt been someone who actively fought for minorities (as a presidential candidate) since Obama was president.
