I'm a former Democrat, not a big Trump guy. You need to to also reflect on what the Democrats have also done. The elevation of identity and grievance has damaged the party. I would love to be a part of the party that looks out for working class people and aims to preserve the ecosystem as best as possible. I would love to he a part of the party that doesn't allow the financial services Industry to whiz all over opportunities for homeownership. I would love to be a part of the party that protects personal conscience in free speech and association. Unfortunately my party abandoned me. I do not know why or how Barack Obama changed course at the end of his first term. The party has abandoned being the open tent. It has sold itself out in a way the Bush years would be proud of. It has become the party of big business, racial categorization, cheap labor, anti-enlightenment sentiment and the managerial class. It is the party of fringe sexual minority identity(men) dictating the rules of reality. I think Biden will win as he did last time but reality is like a 2x4, swung hard and fast. America will collapse under the weight of the demands of the elite and angry young men from the far left and right will devour its carcass and it will be our own fault for allowing government to pick winners and losers.

@@daarom3472 I'm Gen X. Our generation is pretty much about to get leapfrogged from boomer to late millenial to Gen Z. I think there is a generational perspective that is different. In the U.S. Xers and early millenials tend to be more inclined to compromise and moderation. Boomers are less inclined to a degree because so many if them are past the point of retirement and as such are not comfortable with things that endanger their financial security, which is understandable, but creates problems. That is part of the reason the main candidates are who we have. Biden is corrupt, braggadicious and has dementia. Trump is boisterous, impulsive and incurious. My feeling is that Gen X and early millenials should be taking the reins. Some if us are in our middle age and remember when classically liberal values were imparted. I think the boomer generation is afraid that they will be cut out of the picture. I have noticed with Europe young leaders. Sunak, Macron, Meloni, Zelensky, Varadker and others are Xers. I think the former Finnish P.M. was younger. I may be over emphasizing this but, if yiu look at the pre war years in France there was a gerontacracy that clawed on to power while the country became radicalized , weakened and eventually occupied. People will only believe in our Republic if they see it offering something. I fear we have left late millenials and Gen Z very little heritage and sadly the idea that compromise means losing. We are possibly a generation away from jettisoning free speech, the right to keep and bear arms and due process. There are so many factors tugging and pulling and we could be headed for a collapse if the reins are not handed to a spirit of compromise and it will be our own fault. Sorry for the tangent. Hope it sheds some light.

As an someone who has been an educator for 42 years and still teaching, I have noticed that no one is willing to listen anymore. All they want to do is to win the argument and not to listen and learn. The moment, I try to explain an argument to someone who disagrees with me, I'm not given the opportunity to explain the error of the argument. I teach my students that all arguments have to be based on facts and evidence, but a lot of people don't want to listen and cover their ears and the next thing that comes out is another baseless argument in order to tilt their argument their way. I have come to understand now, that individuals once they reach a certain age they become set in their ways and there is nothing one can say or do to help change the individual's belief. Education, professionalism is ignored because of "what about-isms". This is not the way for a society to function. But I could tell you who the real culprits are, the real culprits are the owners of the mass media which has been corrupted by them and the investors. All that matters is their quarterly earnings. By corrupting the media, the followers and listeners get a litany of conspiracy theories, innuendos and gossip. Today, anyone, who can hold a camera or creates a podcast, can become a provider of illusions and falsehoods. A normal solar eclipse, an earthquake becomes a sign of the ends of days and so on. People begin to lose hope and the society begins to break apart, while the controllers continue making their goals accompli.First, the controllers of the news media begin by attacking the foundations of our institutions which have been the landmarks of our democratic system and society. After a while, a society which has been fed a daily array of disinformation by the media, begins to distrust any form of media that goes contrary to what they had been fed. This is the danger: a society which begins to believe in alternate facts and news, a society that begins to distrusts their own institutions. A society, where everyone's unsupported facts have the same value as the facts of someone whose facts are based on evidence. This is th edanger od " what about-ims," and this is a perilous road to take and travel.

Why does our government prioritize protecting the super rich and corporate interests over basic human rights like housing, healthcare and fair wages?

From US Budget Watch 2024:: In the recent GOP primary presidential debate, former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley claimed that President Trump added $8 trillion to the national debt while Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said that President Trump added $7.8 trillion to the debt. These statements are true, depending on how you measure additions to the debt. We estimate the ten-year cost of the legislation and executive actions President Trump signed into law was about $8.4 trillion, with interest. It's most a quarter of the $35 trllion currently being bitched about by Republicans.

If we incline too much into democracy, we shall soon shoot into a monarchy.” John Adams said, “Democracy will soon degenerate into an anarchy, such an anarchy that every man will do what is right in his own eyes and no man's life or property or reputation or liberty will be secure, and every one of these will soon mould itself into a system of subordination of all the moral virtues and intellectual abilities, all the powers of wealth, beauty, wit and science, to the wanton pleasures, the capricious will, and the execrable cruelty of one or a very few.” As Ben Franklin left the state house in Philadelphia, PA on the closing day of the Constitutional Convention, a woman asked him,”what kind of government had the convention given America?” Mr. Franklin replied, “a REPUBLIC, if you can keep it.”

I was a young Republican. I watched Agnew leave the Vice Presidency as a result of being caught in criminal bribery from a previous job as the Governor of Maryland. Nixon covered up Republican corruption during his re-election. He was pardoned by Ford who was appointed by Nixon after Agnew left in shame. Ford was selected because of his loyalty to the system when he was a member of the Warren Commission. I then watched Regan dismantle the mental health system and public health system in California when he was the Governor there. He then took that same effort nationally when he became President. I watched the Bush family take us to war under two administrations. I watched George W. Bush lose the popular vote and win by delegate count. I watched that again twice with the election of Donald Trump. I watched Rick Scott sanctioned for the largest Medicare Fraud in history. He then runs for elected office and wins as the Governor in Florida. He then runs for the U.S. Senate seat in Florida where he aims to dismantle Medicare and Social Security. I woke up after seeing what Regan did in California. I was a young Republican sleep walker up to that point. All I can say is that everyone needs to WAKE-UP and see just what these Republicans have stood for and judge them on their actions. Trump did more damage in 4 years than the previous 40 with the help of the Federalist Society and their selection for the Supreme Court appointees along with the tax reduction act for his wealthy donors. The GOP stands only for corruption, grift and taking away your rights and freedoms. Simply look at their results. One Constitutional crisis after another, Women's rights have been crushed and grifters united in order to hold onto power. The job for these people is to make life better for the Country as a whole not to enrich themselves with money, power and to impose their donor's religious values onto the rest of us. Vote Blue and hold everyone accountable. We need responsible adults at the wheel.

For me, it is so important to seek the truth and acknowledge it...even if it goes against what you are maybe supportive of. If you don't do that, you are stuck with what you believe in and not the truth of the matter. That is not to say what you believe in is not necessarily the truth of the matter. We should be evidence based on what is going on around us and how we move forward as a people. Many of those people who I voted for and believed in became a shattered image for me. It was not easy to see that but those experiences we all learned from. I can't say that this is the case today with many people.

However, after years and years and years of the GOP trying to find some evidence of that corruption and failing epically, i now suspect that Biden may be the squeaky cleanest President in history. Biden has a lot of flaws, but so far, I've seen no evidence that corrupt intent is one of them.

Obama's remarks at a San Francisco fundraiser : "You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." - Barack Hussein Obama Typical coastal, elitist, liberal condescension. If White people from flyover states dare to express any concern for their own welfare, it's "SHUT UP Racists! You just don't want to vote Democrat because you hate brown people and you won't give up your guns and your icky Christianity."

It was Trumps enemies who went after him since the day he ran for president. They invented the Russia collusion hoax, falsified documents to spy on him and go after his people, impeached him twice on phony charges and indicted him on more phony charges. Who has respect for democracy?

Thanks for your concerns; however; half the US population does not want to be "educated" so it's a dead end there, though it would help some. It's not so much the money as it is the power dynamics, allowing monopolies and politically favoring the rich and Big Business who bribe all politicians to do their bidding in order to get insanely wealthier. Sorry for the run-on sentence.

The working stiff has had enough and they are not blaming rich people or companies. They are looking at the 57 Million government union/pension workers who add Nothing to IRS income revenue. We are educated enough to know companies Do Not pay taxes, they Collect them as part of business expenses.

I'm going to put this frankly. There is a danger of democracy failing and I'll tell you why; It's not because of a lack of patriotism and it's not because of questionable election procedures or fraud, it's because of the obsession with winning, and to a lesser extent a certain disrespect of the facts. This is especially true with the MAGA politicians. You can question any aspect of the election you want, but you have to at least respect the findings of the state officials. There is no strength in democracy when the public is arguing about who won after every election. And the "What about the time the other guys said it" excuse doesn't help.

Dems have contested elections many times, and many officials called Trump an "illegitimate" president. So, stop with MAGA mostly BS. Most politicians do this it isn't anything new. Overall, division I would say media's deception. We have one screen, but two movies playing it seems. Leftist say "fine people both sides"=nazi , and MAGA says " you didn't listen to the full clip" as an example. Many people still believe the "fine people" lie and "Russiagate" to this day. If you are told over and over again orange man bad, then somebody asked you why? many people I have seen and talked to just say vague things like he is bad, racist, corrupt, evil, etc but don't have true examples of this ever. If people just get the facts let them make up their own mind.

Frank asks what’s wrong with the country, yet never mentions that what is happening is all by design. Professional politics has and is committed to segregation of the electorate, breaking not just voting blocks, but individuals, into little segments that they can market to directly. Literally 5 different voters in one town can and do receive different political advertising from the same candidate. How do they know what to send? It’s based on all the data they collect on you over your lifetime! Order camping gear, your an outdoor person, buy vitamins and supplements, your concerned with your health, shotgun shells, one box, your a hunter, 100 boxes, your a gun nut… all have the perfect political ad for you!! My point here is that Frank was taught these methodologies, and he’s perfected how to implement them. If your a right winger, he’s your best guy. I do find it rich that he sounds the alarm about how young people have becomes disillusioned by the process that he helped create, yet offers no solution to those Humpty Dumpty problems. Alas, because doing so would/will require not breaking the system, to which he has offered his professional life towards undermining in every election!

He was basically forced to lie to them and teach them to use emotion rather than logic b/c almost every plank of the GOP is a minority position and not based on facts/data. He made this, along with Rush and Newt. This is all their creation.

what is happening is all by design--you're right-Trump couldn't keep his "pants" on and tried to cover up his indiscretion without affecting his political fortunes. Unfortunately, it is now caught up to him and his lies will likely cost him his freedom (I hope) and his marriage. I can't understand why his wife is still with him. I suspect it has to do with the pre-nuptial agreement they have in place.
