I’m happy to climb that hill. The foundation of this country is The Constitution and Rule of Law. If you don’t understand what the Rule of Law means then I just can’t with you anymore either. Guess you’re a Pam Bondi fan 🤪😂

Not at all. We are wasting time with the ride or die Trump supporters. They are unmovable. The MAGA candidates in 2026 will just be more of an unstable future. America isn’t a country that terrorizes communities or puts the military on our streets. Tariffs will make these high prices go much higher

How many did you win over? The worst of the MAGA in this administration and out is relatively small, but their amplification makes them seem larger than they are. Not every Republican is a Nazi and we need to show them that we aren’t who they thought we were. Trump’s numbers keep dropping. We win

I guess you didn’t see the uptick in young men, white, black, and Hispanic, and some young women who voted Republican this last election. I don’t hear Republican women pointing a finger and blaming men for all the problems. I hear it from Dem women. BTW, I’ve never listened to a Joe Rogan podcast

We are speaking to those who already know. It’s amazing some of the things that the Fox viewer never even heard and what they did hear was either a half truth or so twisted it wasn’t true at all. The target audience is independents and minorities

It’s Obama’s initiative and he wasn’t the first. Young men are at a crossroads and don’t know where they belong. This isn’t just a white or black thing, it crosses all races and economic backgrounds. Who’s committing mass shootings? Young white males. It’s not limited to race

It didn’t work this past election, what makes you think it will work for the next election? We need to try a different approach. Facts, data, and warnings didn’t do it. It’s how they feel and the polls are showing it. And it will only get worse

Orban they elected. They voted for Trump’s policies but they didn’t vote for what they are seeing or understand how it will negatively affect their lives. Maybe actual pictures and interviews from the people might break through and give them pause to think

Many of the American population doesn’t know what fascism is or the difference between socialism and communism. They see the optics of Trump and believe his spiel. They don’t hear the negative aspect from Fox or other right wing media. Or they don’t understand or pay attention. Orban today isn’t the

But the shoe doesn’t fit for all men and when I heard a candidate announce they were running and they started out by saying, sorry I’m just another white male in a primary with a sizable number of women and multiple races I thought what if a female did that? Apologize for their race or gender, never

We are raised to be polite which also makes us vulnerable. There are plenty of great women who don’t expect or demand an equally great man. Why do we settle for less or find the bad boy more attractive?
September 17, 2025 at 2:11 AM
And women need to do better as well. Blaming white men for all the problems in this country, or the overuse of misogyny or misogynistic, and toxic masculinity. The negative attitude towards men is mainly coming from Democrats women and many men don’t feel welcome

Why would you go there or assume that? Nothing about his statement included race or even alluded to it. Not everyone is out to get you and others can see or sense it and it repels people rather than wanting them to engage further
September 17, 2025 at 1:56 AM
I’m tired of hearing what you’re peddling. You demand? That demand requires getting Democrats elected as the majority party. Then passing legislation that turns norms into laws. Gone are the days of thinking that elected representatives are honorable people

I’m surprised she cried and more surprised that she considered him a man of faith. His faith didn’t align with what I consider as being Christian
September 17, 2025 at 1:33 AM
I still believe that there are more good people than bad. We’ve survived situations like this before and I believe we will again. When interacting with those on the other side, I’m always civil and I tell them that I’m not the enemy or the stereotype that Republicans tell you I am
September 17, 2025 at 12:21 AM
I heard someone say the other day, Biden on his worst day would still have been better than Trump on his best day. The fact that all the Republicans voted to confirm some of the worst cabinet nominees despite knowing they were bad is inexcusable
September 17, 2025 at 12:09 AM
I didn’t see what she wrote so I don’t have a well informed opinion
September 16, 2025 at 11:48 PM
I think a better idea would be to show them what life is like under fascist rule. Video interviews of the people living in Hungary. Historical footage of Mussolini and Italian life under him. Instead of just a word, make it a living word. Reality
September 16, 2025 at 10:37 PM
Why not use white nationalist? I’m going by data and opinion polls that our use of words like fascist or Nazi worked against us more than for us in terms of attracting more voters, and at the end of the day the one with the most votes wins
September 16, 2025 at 10:27 PM
I remember in Trumps first term if someone was killed, Trump’s first question was, are they Muslim? He seemed to take on the tone that the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim.
September 15, 2025 at 3:00 PM
I had the same thought. I don’t have to mourn him at all. I was also thinking about his statement that the second he is more important than the loss of some lives. I wonder if his wife and family feel the same way currently
September 15, 2025 at 2:53 PM
I’m not saying you are wrong, but others saw it differently when it came to those you mentioned. Whether it was war, race, segregation, or political ideology, they felt wronged or threatened. I can’t denounce one and justify another
