I was also one who used to vote independently. Now you can no longer do so, and I vote even though I may not care for any of the candidates.

Hi everyone!!

Good to see you all out here posting ...
I had to stop because I used to get so upset. 

And now I am still upset  but choose not to talk about it. 

I am very concerned that our Country is in a lot of
trouble especially if Trrump gets into office again.

I can't even imagine that happening again... 
But stranger things keep happening..  So,  who
knows. 

Hi Cherie!!

Good to see you again .

I hope all are well and happy in spite of the
horror of the politics here in the USA...

Hugs to all
Sandy  (use to be dapphne ::) )

Was going to send you a message on the night of the "debates", LOL!  But my computer would not let me type anything in. Poor thing is on its last legs.  Anyway, did you watch the debates, and what did you think?It's probably not your political party anyway, but just getting feed back.
I usually start striking candidates off my list with this first debate, with more later on.  I was surprised by a couple of them, but they're both in the lower eschelon and not polling at all well!

diglady

No I did not watch debate. I heard Niki Haley did well. There is no way I can vote for anyone in the so called Republican Party until Trump is entirely out of the picture. It has gone off the rails and is following the fascist ideology. There is no more GOP. IMO trump followers are uneducated and sick. They don't believe how evil to this country he is. I believe in the Constitution and he wants to destroy it. Also he wants to dismantle all Federal agencies. Oh My the list goes on and is too horrible.

Tomereader1

Yes, Nikki did pretty well. That smug little Vivek, looks like a poster boy for dental implants!

Where did my Conservative Rep. Party go to?  The Dems could run Lenin and probably win since polls show Biden with low favorability, and these so-called Republicans, bah humbug.  I'm just wondering why Chris Christi gets so much "hate".  Most qualified guy in the bunch.

Glad you emailed diglady.

That's how they beat him - Build up hate or bring charges - whether true or not.

Republicans (Trump) seem to endorse them. 

makes me think I should go out and buy a gun!

Tomereader1

Well, some more blathering going to happen on TV tonight.  If they just wouldn't talk "over" each other and let the other person finish a thought. Since there's been nothing on TV due to the writer's strike, this will almost be a welcome change.  Sometimes I wish I could just slap someone silly, to shut them up.  Bring the popcorn, see you at TV debate. LOL

diglady

I did not watch the 'debate'. I just knew it would be a lot of bullish hate and lies. I like Biden but he is old (not as old as me!) I would like to see a younger man or woman run. I like Newsome. Not going to happen tho. Even after all the lushed Trump is still circling the drain! Hope the flush is completed soon!!

RAMMEL

What a lovely post.

Well finally Trump has spoken truth. He hates everyone who is NOT for him Kill them. He even speaks in Hitler's jargon. What an evil, evil man--and I hesitate to call him man-monster is better!

Sandy



I agree Dig.... 

The "End of Trump" will be a
much better day for me.

Have a good day everyone!
Sandy!

Was watching C-Span a bit ago, and I think I've found my candidate...Sen.Tim Scott.  He was doing a speech thing in New Hampshire.  He speaks really well and touches on things of importance, which we can't hear because of all the prattle during the Debates, and the fact that the moderators don't call on him as much as they do DeSantis and "Vivisection".

diglady

As long as Trump is in the political picture I will NOT vote for any republican. The GOP is no more. All the party seems to go for is Autocracy/dictatorship/slash Constitution. They no longer believe in the USA. I called the Party Hq. and asked about the party platform. Response: Reelect Trump! NOT on your nellie!!

patricia19

That's why they've earned the nickname in lower case, repugs.

Wish I had the money to run a full page ad in newspaper that says:
Mr. Trump
Shut up
You are boring.

Last night I watched the DJT love fest aka Republican National Convention.
DJT spoke for 90 minutes about himself.
It was a horrid, awful acceptance speech.
We are doomed.

It really is not so funny. Trump says he would tear up the Constitution; round up and evict 1 million immigrants; remove 50,000 from federal jobs; calls for "loyalty oath"  His plan 47 aka 2025 goes on.

Dig, I sent you a PM.

I don't know how to open it.

Rammel, apparently you have not done much reading over the years or paid much attention to true politics. I suggest you read the book: 1939-it is about Hitler and how he came to power. He is being emulated by Trump. But I bet you don't even know about WWll

RAMMEL

Never heard of it.

Just remember a decent American voter votes for platform NOT a name.

diglady

Well Trump announced if you vote for him you will never have to vote again. Thus he announced he will be a DICTATOR. He has warned us.

patricia19

He's warned all along, but those slavish devoted and feeling disenchanted will never listen.

diglady

Well now that Kamala Harris is front runner for President the weirdo just doesn't know what to do except call her names and hash over her 'race'. Small, ignorant, mean man! He has no thing to offer USA. Just wants to be its dictator!
