• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Not my circus. Not my clown.

It makes no logical sense why medications manufactured in the United States cost Americans more than they are sold for overseas. In what world does that make sense?
This one, they’re legally allowed to take us to the cleaners so why would they not do so?

It’s because votes allow it. Vote for a party that will implement federal universal healthcare.

Because Democrats are that awful. You'd think that the Democrat approval ratings would have said it all. You think Republicans are bad? You need to come to terms with the fact that Democrats are worse.
You just hate them more. They aren't worse

Why do people keep supporting Republicans? The left wing keeps being characterized as these capricious, baseless emotional haters but in reality we are just upset by facts and find him to be a really really terrible leader. And either really stupid or a liar that should NoT be representing other people.

And he just talks like it's no big deal and his words mean nothing.

Do you not worry aabout America's credibility? I mean who is he talking to here? He's not saying this to people who know how to read.

He has two dichotomous lines right now:
"I love the poorly educated"
And
"Smart people hate me"
I am telling you, the man lies as if lying were an involuntary muscle.

What makes me laugh is that his supporters seem to LITERALLY believe all politicians "lie as much as him so why can't he lie?"

That is not true. Even Democrats think democrats are awful. Here is a source so people dont think i am flaming.

Yes that is true. Recall the "do something" town halls the Dems faced. Trump et al are taking a flame thrower to democracy, and Dem leaders are protesting with strongly written letters. That's why their polling is so low. Now they go to GOP townhalls because that district's GOP rep doesn't show up.

Before I read it...did you read it?

It's also paywall blocked....and I doubt you did read it since it's from Vox.

Don't post things you don't have at LEAST a passing understanding of.

I've learned that the hard way.
1) Republicans never like democrats so that's a fair chunk of the "hatred"
2) Independents AND democrats are frustrated that they aren't going after trump harder.

Wrong. The country has turned on democrats because now they see through their nonsense.

Or perhaps the American people have seen the radical leftist monsters that are hiding behind a mask that have infected the democratic party and they want nothing rondo with it. The insane radical left are rhe monsters created by the DNC to attack Trump, now the DNC can nologer control the monsters they have created. Only now, are democrats trying to distance themselves from their monsters.

There is nothing I said that is wrong. Again, the biggest reason Dems poll so badly is because Dems themselves are dissatisfied with their lack of "do something"

  1. Democrats are frustrated with their party
  2. Democrats are divided on what direction their party should go
  3. Americans, and Democrats, really dislike Democratic party leaders

"The biggest contributor to the negative position of the Democratic Party right now comes from depressed Democrats who are frustrated with their party. Poll after poll shows a unique, historically unusual dynamic where Republicans are very satisfied with the state and performance of their political party while Democrats are significantly less happy with their own side." --VOX

Just like I said.

***Edit to add. This just today: Schumer's leadership is increasingly toxic among Senate candidates.
Kind of like Ginsberg and Biden, they don't know when to step away.

OF COURSE DEMOCRATS ARE DIVIDED BECAUSE THE ONLY THING UNIFYING THEM IS THEIR SHARED HATRED. PARTICULARLY, THEIR HATRED FOR TRUMP!. If you take that away, they have nothing. Come 2028, when Trump leaves office, the DNC will collapse because the single thing holding them together will be gone. Now compared to to conservatives, we are unified on love. Love for God, country, family, and humanity.

I like kumquats. By the way, it seems the election of Trump has united a lot of groups. Specially other countries.

Yes. Trump is a unites people.
Yes, he has united China, India, and Brazil in actions detrimental to the American farmers.
After placing tariffs on them, he even united that Island solely inhabited by Penguins.

Really?

One would think that one who loved God would be concerned about the loss Trump is bringing to the poor among us.

And one who loved country would not cheer for the utter buffoonery that Trump displayed in front of the world at the UN.

And one who loved family would not be cheering when ICE breaks up families that we had allowed to be here for decades.

And one who loves humanity would not cheer the cutback of alternative energy projects, which are our only hope for continuing any decent industrialized society into the future.

Wrong. The country has become frustrated with democrats because they are not doing enough to resist Trump's tyranny. The overwhelming voice is for Democrats to fight more to the left, to fight harder for basic decency in government as they have in the past, as opposed to accepting Trump's madness.
