But, but Trump has the all important ever coveted R behind his name that means no matter how liberal he is he must be better than the hated D. If Hillary had switched to the almighty R like Trump did a few years ago we would all be talking about how much better she would be. Because R (TM).
@Norm Lenhart can explain this better than I can.
It's simple logic. Anyone saying otherwise needs to prove their assertion.
When the America hating 'conservatives' abandon the very principles their entire system of government was founded on to 'win nomatter what", they accomplished a couple things other than flushing their integrity and establishing their liberal credentials.
1: Liberals are called 'Progressives for a reason. They make progress every time some yellowbacked moderate calling themselves 'conservative' empowers the 'R' that shares and campaigns on liberal ideals. Case in point - Bhoner, Mitch and Romney.
Each of these liberal Reoublicans was pro amnesty, Pro gay agenda and passed funding for Romneycare...sorry, OBAMAcare. They did nothing to stop abortion and in fact passed several laws to enable it. We dont need to rehash EVERY OTHER hard left position and policy they rammed through. The above is more than enough to establish their liberal credentials because the Dems shared their positions fully.
2: By electing and ATTEMPTING to elect liberal Republicans, the entire paradigm of the GOP shifted left. They were ENCOURAGED by the liberal garbage that elected them to adopt increasingly leftist policies and positions.
All the above is a matter of historical record. These scum did not magically appear in DC on the backs of unicorns. They were put there by liberals empowering other liberals.
The leftists here and everywhere else are here and every other supposedly right wing/conservative site for one reason. To make sure a Ted Cruz type never sees office. And as we all saw with their actions,to this day, pushing of leftist Trump talking points, they achieved their goal.
I and others have harped on this for years. We get all sorts of sXXt from said liberals denying that the above is true and calling US the problem. Unfortunately for them, the facts and history support our position.
TLDR: America hating liberals support candidates that achieve their goals. If their candidates are pro Abort, Pro Gay agenda, anti 1 &2 Amendment and actively fund or otherwise support those things, guess what? They are birds of a feather. You do not put your name/vote to things or people you personally oppose.
PS: for anyone that wants to have a tantrum about it...Behold my field of... 'care.' and see that it is barren.
