What about progressives for Trump?

PS: I notice that the first three idiots that posted after your OP had a need to denigrate. They do this of course, because inwardly they feel worthless.

Are you from the South? You have such a pleasant and polite manner about you. Just wanted to let you know. I remember one time working in clay soil and trying to walk normally with twenty pounds of mud on my feet. I found it usefull to occasionally scrape it off.

I like the direction the Warren Wing is moving in.

I think this movement would have a better chance at succeeding if they would concentrate on the economic imbalance that we are now plagued with much more than those single issue social concerns that the RNC like to employ to divide and conquer the working class of the nation. This Movement should have the RNC constantly defending themselves in their desire to keep the status quo, to keep having the rich get ever richer while everyone else gets poorer.

edit - The glue that binds the working class is the economic stagnancy they are suffering from while the very wealthy who are using their riches to successfully corrupt their way into controlling the government are getting richer by leaps and bounds.

This concern should be the driving force, the single unifying factor that the Warren Wing needs to emphasize. The desire for having the working class majority of the nation take back control from the few oligrarchs that now have overwhelming influence over our politicians should be paramount. It should be emphasized to the point where it overcomes those social issues that the very rich like to exploit to keep them in power.

Progressives have it going on, far and away the smartest political group there is, just ask any one of them.

 

[compuwiz1]

Termites are progressive.

lol +1

Progressive has my bike, Nationwide has everything else. Geico was to the dollar what Nationwide charges my on car insurance, and Nationwide is, you know, a real insurance company.

And I need a bath after visiting the OP's linked site. How can someone so polite send me to such an awful web site?

I guess "regressive" is the new MRA term of the month.

G' mornin' Moonbeam,

I'm from Kentucky, some consider it South, others not so much. I consider KY as an anomaly, in that it is neither North or South, but a stand alone state (afterall, it would have remained neutral thoughout the Civil War had not Polk allowed Pillow to invade Southwest KY and take Columbus).

Thanks for the gracious remarks regarding my style, you too have an amiable manner of writing.

I consider Trump as a danger to our nation, I hope that the General Election does not produce such a man to lead our nation from here.

I got a chuckle from some of the responses here; some folk just think that way.

You must have been working in the deep South, GA or AL?

Enjoy your day!

G' mornin' old friend,

I agree with you 100%. Join us and let your thoughts be heard, they are valuable insights.

Hi werepossum,

I just drove through Choo-choo town a couple of days ago, that was me in the silver Mustang driving about 80. I can drop off some soap on my flip-flop in about a week. :biggrin:

I don't know what to classify myself as.

I'm for social freedoms.. such as gun ownership and legal pot, ending the drug war and decriminalizing all possession... ending what I call the "prison industrial complex" in the US and long prison sentences for petty or victimless crimes. Prisons should be for murders, rapists, pedophiles.

Support national health care style system, but these systems only work when you have a low number of bottom feeders taking from the system and not contributing thus...

I support open immigration if a person can speak fluent english and prove they will be useful to society. I oppose letting boats of refugees in and just letting them disappear into the woodwork. Call me cold, but I would send them away at best, and use napalm to keep them away at worst. At some point you have to do what's best for your country. These people can take care of their own internal affairs. We don't need them out there in the streets, needing government handouts, and bankrupting any socialist type system we might have in place, just creating internal dissension and providing no benefit. The globalists want cheap labor.. they are tired of paying people living wages, that's only part of the reason they are pushing race mixing, aside from not wanting any homogeneous culture to gain too much power on their own.. the globalists want full control.

We need welfare reform.. too many people can claim they are bipolar, have anxiety disorders, or just by having kids out of wedlock, can get subsidized housing and live for $30 rent a month for years like my sister has and not have to work at all.. the instant they get any sort of job they lose the benefits and are worse off... need to encourage working instead of rewarding not working.. and as somebody who had anxiety, the way you get over it is exposure, not running away and hiding in your apartment.

I support regulations on worker safety, environmental laws, etc. Corporations can't really be trusted to do it themselves, and having a clean environment with plenty of national/state parks is something I consider important.

Perhaps what I support would be something like Switzerland before all the globalists started force feeding refugees into Europe?

The trouble with true progressive socialists is they want to regulate too much of a person's personal life because they think they should be protecting everyone from themselves. Corporations and government need regulation.. regulation on individuals should be more limited.

I want my guns, to keep myself protected from oppressive government.. don't say it can't happen or will never happen.... that's my main beef with progressives.. always going after the guns.... and there's not really any politician on any front that doesn't support this huge, global war on drugs, which drives me crazy sometimes. It takes individuals in US States like Colorado to bring in some common sense that politicians and other statists seem to lack.

Hi stockwiz,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I don't see the PCCC as trying to take away your guns as much as limiting the arsenal which is available to anyone.

Your thoughts were well organized and gave me insight as to what issues concern you. You might prioritize them and decide from that as to what you consider yourself as; it sounds to me like you fit into the PCCC camp especially when you address the global market camp that produces cheap labor at the expense of Americans who can't find a job that provides for a living for them and their family.

Anyway, thanks so much for sharing and taking this topic seriously.

I think it's adorable you think the Dems are the only party of "free stuff" in Washington. If you want a party to repeal the free stuff you are basically out of luck because your only option is the party of free stuff for the many or the party of free stuff for the few.

People like you are exactly why I keep saying the Democrats need to shelve the gun control shit. They would fucking dominate government by now if they let it go.

Adding to Sonniku's reply, I like how gullible fools fall for the classification of government serving the people as "free stuff."

 

[Sonikku]

I agree the gun control issue should be dropped but that would hardly allow the Dems to dominate. People are too caught up in the us-vs-them mentality and social issues for any major voting fluctuations to happen.
