How on earth would anyone run on anything but a continued Trump agenda.

    the OP is a Stupid question
    You mean, like the Red Wave you predicted this past election?

    Anyone voting Republican does so because they're racist. The reason is that Republican policy lacks merits, and they know that. So they run on race and fear-mongering because they can't run on policy success.
    You're Afro-centric and lack any credentials.

    Anyone can be racist. But only a few of us can be arrogant, underachieving assholes like you.

    Because xenophobic and racist hatred is effective at turning out votes.

    The GOP didn't run on their policy in this last election...wonder why? Because the policy is bullshit, and the only way they can turn out voters is by appealing to their bigotry, hatred, and phobias. So that's why you heard about "caravans" and not about the tax cut they passed last year.

    Anyone can be racist? Really? Even blacks and Hispanics who don't hold economic power?

    Amazing there are so many racist minorities wouldn't you say?

    Trump has appointed more swamp monsters than anyone before him. Even his Transportation Secretary was Bush the Dumber's. His last SCOTUS pick worked in the Bush White House.

    He hasn't drained the swamp, he's poured more swamp in.

    Yes. But only white people have weaponized and legislated their racism in this country.

    Not really. Racism is learned.

    How so?

    Do you mean having their participation trophies torn down? That's not really racism unless you're saying slavery and treason are congruent with the white race. Is that what you're saying?

    How so? Why do you think people getting equal treatment hurts white people? Are you admitting that white people have special status, and that bringing everyone else's rights up to match theirs somehow causes them harm? Seems to me the only harm would be to their egos. Republican policies never help poor white trash. Never. Ever. Not once. Not ever.

    They're only voting GOP because the GOP is racist and they're racist. Nothing the GOP does helps them at all.

    When you go to China, they want you to merge with a local Chinese Company or divulge your operations to a local Chinese Company so it can go into business and compete with you. Then, once the Chinese Company is up and running, the Chinese Government helps the Chinese Company outcompete the original company.
    It's a very deliberate and calculated process meant NOT to benefit a local 'Prince', but to help the Chinese as a Nation. Nationalism at it's best.

    Personally, ... I think they are still pissed off about the silk worm.


    They are a malign power. Regional hegemony and designs to supplant the west/US as world arbitor.

    They've Trampled Tibet so badly the Dalai Llama is signaling he's not going to reincarnate.
    The "9 dash line" is simply a power grab to seize littoral states resources in the S.C. Sea.

    Even the " 1 belt 1 road" ( so called Silk Road 2.0) initiative is being abused by lending to states who can't payback loans and they they default to Chinese infrastructure ownership.

    Of course there is blatant IP theft as well as joint venture partnerships you mentioned coupled
    with a high level of academic and industrial espionage.

    They take that Middle Kingdom crap seriously - exempting themselves from international norms

    This used to be a nation run by white, males of European extraction.

    It no longer is...and many of the white, European extraction males are alll exercised about it.

    My guess: Males will be a minority in government within 30 years...and white males of European heritage will be a minority in our country.

    America will probably be the better for it.

    Oh...and the Republican Party will probably head further to the right...and annihilate itself. The future of America will be markedly to the left of where we are now.
