RIP, California GOP

[TTQ64]

the republican party killed its self

nothing left but the bleeding out


many partys have died out in this nations history


a new party will coalesce in its absence


look at the size of the Independents


from most of them a new party will coalesce



it wont take long

IMO Most independents believe in conservative/republican/GOP ideology...….they just think if they call themselves independents, they get excluded from supporting the racist ideas from the right.

There's not a lot of daylight between the two.

the birthplace of Richard M. Nixon and modern-day conservatism.[/B]

thank goodness its been replaced by postmodern conservatism.......

[TTQ64]

the current state of state, like America itself, is in a shambles - infrastructure shot, homeless people everywhere, most public schools worthless, affordable housing almost nonexistent in large cities, social services on their knees.........all this while the wealth gap grows exponentially

sure, the new techno elite class will do fine until the very planet buckles beneath them, and CA isn't immune to this travesty

I'd move to Europe (not the UK) in a heartbeat if I had a few more bucks and could speak Danish/Swedish/French/whatever - I miss civilization

And you can thank lying, cheating, greedy, racist white men who have been so corrupt in this country since it's founding.

They have made the rules America lives by.

[PostmodernProphet]

What policies are those?

you know.......the ones that made California warm and sunny.......

[TTQ64]

Its been happening all your life? The Republican Party controlled large swaths of Southern California for decades. Look at a map of the last Congressional election vs today. No my dear, its a phenomena totally tied into trump.

This is what ignorant racist right wing nut jobs don't understand.

We are STILL feeling the wrath of the GOPigs decades later.

It's why we need to stop compromising with them. They legislation hurts us for decades.

[PostmodernProphet]

I'm curious to know how they will rebuild? What ideology will they support? What legislation? What Agenda? What will be the difference between a old republican party and a "new" one?

Anyone????????????

I think they will call it Idaho........

[TTQ64]

Hey, congrats! Reagansghost is a political liberal who lives in California and you saw what he had to say about the state.

If one's happiness in life is determined by the political party of their representatives then California is a liberals nirvana. If there is more than life than just that then California has plenty of issues.

It's interesting you and TTQ64 repeatedly tell me I should move because I talk about our state's politics. If you lived in the Bay Area you would tell about 80% of the people here to move because they complain constantly about the traffic, the homeless, the cost of living and other issues. They may be politically liberal but it doesn't mean they approve of all that goes on.

A question for you. The black population has been decreasing in the state. We know a large majority of black folks are politically liberal. Why do you think so many are leaving such a great liberal state?

They aren't, Liar!

As for the rest of your blathering...we are still functioning under republican rule in this state. Once we rid ourselves of the filthy stench of the GOPigs and their racist laws, ideology, agenda, we could move forward.

[TTQ64]

To answer your question about blacks leaving the state .. how about because they want to for whatever reason they choose?

How about because they seem to have more courage then you do to just sit around and complain about their circumstances?

There are 40 million people in California and your whining about the state is absolutely MEANINGLESS.

If you don't like the state, get the fuck out. I did for better opportunities and a environment that better suited me.

EVERY state and municipality has problems.

That's what politics are for.

Don't treat his lies as if they are legit.

Blacks are not moving as he says...…. That's all that needs to be said.

[TTQ64]

Democratic policies are why people can't afford to live here. Y'all don't believe in development. It's evil and only enriches developers. Thus we have the highest prices in the nation

YAWNNNNNNNNN

such lies

thank goodness its been replaced by postmodern conservatism.......

Since the inception of Donald Trump as their leader, The Republican Party has been replaced by Postmodern Insanity- with Plutocracy, corruption, lies, fake news, racism, and White Male Supremacy as their main themes! Which is what we all suspected about Republicans all along anyway.

[Minister of Truth]

Why don't you just say, what you are really trying to say?

You beat around the bush, but don't really say anything!

Subtlety is more fun. Especially when it's not really all that subtle.

Isn't postmodernism great? No objective truth or reality, and morality is just something we make-up by committee so that we can tolerate one another. Oh, and the art just happens to all be terrible.

[cawacko]

I discuss public policy every time I come to this board .. and in fact, I discuss public policy more then you do.

Here's the bottom line .. what you're suggesting .. piling people on top of people .. is never going to happen. You're just farting in the wind.

Try learning something ..

For someone in real estate, you seem to know very little about the limitations and constraints on development.

You're right BAC, I know very little about real estate. Segregation of neighborhoods and displacement aren't issues at all and don't correspond to other issues, education, economic development, etc. I have no clue why they would even report on this. This all about constraint right?

Edit: I'm an idiot and don't know how to remove ad blocker so I couldn't post the article but it's about segregation in the Bay Area housing market and how it hurts minorities most

a good faction of them are revolting republicans


but there is a large slice who are Dem leaning

the republicans who didn't want to have to defend all the stupid the republicans have been doing since Shrub lied us to war went to the I team


That is where the new opposition party will from from


the trump cult party wont like them for at least a few years


then the new right party will find them a "person" to attract the trumpy idiots at some point


problem is it will have to contain some kind of racism that will make the new party act on a way that destroys their ability to be large enough to win elections

Demographics


The only way they truly become viable is to ignore the shrinking racist element of voters and actually present GOOD IDEAS


I don't think they will do that


they will try to take the easy way out like the republicans have done all my life and court racists just like ronny rayguns did with his welfare queens driving caddys bit.


While they are out of power we need to secure elections well into the future so that the American people will is not subverted with cheating voters and fixing machines



we need to take the corporate money OUT.


those CEOs don't need any extra power in an election

they can vote and give the max an individual can give just like everyone else


the biggest thing we need to watch after the republican party dies is to make sure the Democratic party doesn't get bought out from fixing everything by the big money


we need to populate the party power with people like Abrams, Guillum and Beto

[evince]

I'm curious to know how they will rebuild? What ideology will they support? What legislation? What Agenda? What will be the difference between a old republican party and a "new" one?

Anyone????????????

this is what will determine how long they are out of power


the name will no longer be a plus


what name will the choose?


it will be our first inbdication
