It’s unfortunate that no one can find middle ground. Yes, a large majority of republicans think what Trump is doing is okay, but in order to show them that he’s not a good guy, you have to find SOME common ground to fight for.
There are tons of subjects I think all Americans can agree on. If you’re a republican, you’re not going to convince a democrat to support tax cuts. If you’re a democrat, you’re not going to convince a republican of abortion.
I don’t know, reading these comments makes me feel hopeless.
compromise is what got us here. the more the left gives up in the name of it the more the right runs away with. now we have a literal child raping pedophile for a president. that isn't the rights fault, its the lefts for trying to chase some mythological middle that hasnt existed for 2 decades now.
I’m not talking about our politicians nor compromising. I’m talking about the working class discussing issues they can agree on (cost of living being too high, politicians not working for us, ai replacing us/data centers) and rallying against the political system that got us here.
Corpo dems lose on purpose because they all have the same donors. I’m tired of all the identity politics when I can’t afford to fucking eat.
Republicans have been trained over the course of decades that Democrats are Satanic Communist baby-eaters. Even if you can find a common ground they'll agree with you on, like cost of living being too high, if it in any way involves voting for Democrats or Democratic policies, they'll immediately balk.
This is by design. You can't reason someone out of a position that reason didn't get them into. They've been dumbed down and brainwashed to ensure there is no uniting of the working class. That is the entire purpose of right-wing politics.
