    You're wrong about the Democrats though. They've been hijacked by SJWs. A lot of millennials are that type. Bill Clinton would be a moderate Republican by now.

    Populism is thankfully gaining popularity precisely because of the elitists that have always thumbed their noses at "rednecks."
    Not really. We roll our eyes at the supporters of populist for not knowing their history and the pretentious manner in which they portray ignorance as a virtue. Just like Huey Long Trumps supporters will eventually be let down by his inability to keep the promises he’s made. Just like what happened with Long and Bryan,

    Many Republicans do push for creationism and those who don't sit quietly and allow it to be pushed.

    Republicans, including Trump have suggested or attempted to ban Muslim immigration and shut down Mosques.

    Republicans are anti-gay and favor laws that allow discrimination.

    There have been numerous instances of Republicans attempting and succeeding in purging voter lists, limiting early voting, adding new requirements shortly before elections....

    The states have fully legalized Marijuana are almost exclusively blue Democrat states.
    Democrats need to stop engaging in the culture wars. Ya know why? Because Republicans continue to win battles in a war they lost fifty years ago. By engaging them your permitting them to lead the narrative.

    So what do you suggest Dems do?

    Accept Republican policy?

    How is that a win?

    It's precisely the same arrogance on display with Corbynites, they were totally convinced that they'd win in a landslide. Berniebots are no different and they are in for a hell of a shock come November unless the economy tanks in the meantime.

    Don't be too optimistic: Hitler's supporters supported him to the end. Irrationality can do that.

    I understood that but thanks for clarifying anyway. In this day and age I still think it almost impossible to have a true landslide (anything close to the 49 states variety).

    Lol. No true conservative would vote for the most conservative governing president since Ronald Reagan? Yeah okay. And who else is currently representative of conservative values, AND running for president? You're such a retard.

    I’d advise engaging in other more important issues and roll your eyes at Republicans when they bring up the culture wars and quite Reagan by saying...”Well there you go again.”.

    Well, as advice goes, that is just too broad and generalized to follow or even completely understand.

    Where should we do this?

    On forums? Twitter? Facebook?

    And what happens when their lies begin to take root because we Dems are busy trying to be high-minded and above it all?

    No offense, but fuck that.

    I'm sick and tired of these overly polite "Femocrats" who sit and play nice while the other side uses gutter tactics.

    I'd rather pick up the shit they fling at us and smack them right back in their faces with it.

    As if any of it matters in terms of changing anything anyway.

    No, tax cuts for everyone. You didn't have a problem when your lord and savior started the policy of putting kids in cages. Why do you now?
