Donald Trump's own fans are begging the former president to change course as Vice President Kamala Harris now reportedly leads him in seven national polls.
Trump late Thursday night bragged that one of his endorsed candidates, Bobby Harshbarger, prevailed against incumbent Sen. Jon Lundberg in t...

LOL. I so laughed at this line. Some people are unbelievably clueless.
Republicans did that. Conservatives fought it every step of the way.
Republican in name only, or RINO. Republicans back then were the same as Democrats today in terms of policy which I find weird.
I know that. You know that. I’m not sure the dope you were quoting knows that.
They probably do know that, if they know enough to argue that. But they’re also clearly racist for thinking that helping historically oppressed groups is bad and obviously means we want to hurt the advantaged groups (zero-sum at best, but mostly likely projection).
Republicans used to be the urban pro-industrial party, democrats were the party of rural farmers.
Urban industrialists didn’t directly rely on slave labor so they were more open to abolitionists. Rural farmers were heavily dependent on slave labor so they were very pro slavery.
It’s also why the democratic party has always tried to get universal health insurance passed. The party is made up of farmers with law degrees, so the local Doctor, the only other educated man who it was appropriate to socialize with would come around a lot— so they were constantly hearing stories about how their friend had to accept chickens or food as payment instead of money.
why?
popular consensus is that barry goldwater was a trump like populist presidential candidate that took advantage of american’s very strong disapproval of the civil rights & voting acts and dog-whistled the republican party into adopting its present day policy; do you not see it that way?
DYK, RINO was originally used to deride those who were not progressive enough.
Notice that while they’re posting on /r/conservative they don’t use the word “conservative” in that sentence. Because then they’d have to say:
They freed the slaves, but fly the Confederate flag because… um… It’s pretty.
It’s just bots arguing with each other over there though.
I bet they also believe Democrats do nothing to help black people in recent times.
Which, to be clear, is true in many ways. Now apply the same logic to Republicans who bleat out “we were the ones who freed the slaves!”.
The best things conservatives have done for black people in recent times is being super wierd and thus keeping themselves out of power
Like what?
Nah bruh, your brain is just too liberal to understand why trickle down economics is actually great for the poors
Herp derp gender’s a social construct derp
Edit: just to be extra clear I’m obviously not ridiculing that statement as it is 100% true lol
I haven’t laughed that hard at conservatives in a long time, good times.
Thanks to this I went browsing through that sub. These people are openly blatantly calling for torture of detainees in Guantanamo.
I haven’t visited that sub in years, mostly because it made me feel dumber.
But those comments are in weird contrast to what I used to see. I wonder if the veil is finally falling…that’d be wild.
It’s kinda funny watching them notice who Trump is for the first time while still being upset he might not win. There’s some comments that are effectively, “enough of the meaningless bullshit, just talk about policy and he’ll do better!” as if Trump ever had any attractive policies.
I believe last I heard they were trying to distance themselves from their policies because they realized in hindsight that they shouldn’t say them out loud.
They’ve been doing this for an entire year now. All winter and spring the meta was “we will all stay home if Desantis doesn’t get the nomination.” They all cringed pretty hard when Trump did his NFT scam.
But at the end of the day they are all intellectually dishonest cowards, so in the end they always just do the only thing they know - lick the boot.
It’s weird to see a contingent of vaguely relatively normal opinions over there, but of course they get decried as “librul brigading” by most of the cult/bots
that was very pleasurable to read; thanks for sharing.
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me, they’re making ads look like comments now???
