    It's very simple why they win so much, they are unified in their reprehensible agenda, while Republicans can't agree on a single issue, let alone a full agenda. More than half are court jester squishes, more than half of the remaining half oppose most Democrat views, but either can't muster up the courage or don't have the requisite foresight to understand politics and make the right moves, and then there's a small handful that know exactly what the fuck is going on. So until Republicans/Conservatives start getting the hint, the Libs will always keep winning more. And the Conservatives that are still under the impression that the court will save us regardless of what the Libs do, are simply naive individuals.
     
    It's because you're dealing with the split of logic and emotion.

    Emotional people are far more invested in having things their way. They will destroy their own lives and everyone's around them to have their way, they wont be stopped by laws or morailty. Logical people will just go back to work and complain to their friends.
     
    Around a third of registered voters in the U.S. (34%) identify as independents, while 33% identify as Democrats and 29% identify as Republicans, according to a Center analysis of Americans’ partisan identification based on surveys of more than 12,000 registered voters in 2018 and 2019.

    Most independents in the U.S. lean toward one of the two major parties. When taking independents’ partisan leanings into account, 49% of all registered voters either identify as Democrats or lean to the party, while 44% identify as Republicans or lean to the GOP.



    How many counties does it take to equal the population of these large urban areas? Let’s find out.

    New York City’s Rural Equivalent​

    New York City (proper) Population: 8.42 million
    New York City Population density: 27,547 persons / mi²

    New York City became the largest city in the U.S. back in 1781 and has long been the country’s most densely packed urban center. Today, 1 in every 38 people living in the United States resides in The Big Apple.

    For the northwestern counties above to match the population of New York City, it takes a land area around the size of Mongolia. The region shown above is 645,934 mi², and runs through portions of 12 different states.


    Los Angeles County’s Rural Equivalent​

    LA County Population: 10.04 million
    LA County Population density: 2,100 persons / mi²

    Los Angeles County is home to the 88 incorporated cities that make up the urban area of Los Angeles.

    Even excluding nearby population centers such as Anaheim, San Bernadino, and Riverside (which are located in adjacent counties) it is still the most populous county in the United States, with over 10 million inhabitants.

    los angeles county population density equivalent map


    To match this enormous scale in Middle America, it would take 298 counties covering an area of 471,941 mi².


    Chicago’s Rural Equivalent​

    Chicago Metropolitan Area Population: 9.53 million
    Chicago Metropolitan Area Population density: 1,318 persons / mi²

    Next up is America’s third largest city, Chicago. For this visualization, we’re using the Chicago metropolitan area, which covers the full extent of the city’s population.

    chicago population density equivalent map


    To match the scale of the population of the Windy City, we would need to add up every county in New Mexico, along with large portions of Colorado, Arizona, and Texas



    Conversely, what if we transported the people in the country’s least densely populated counties into the middle of an urban center?

    RankCountyPopulation
    1Kalawao County, Hawaii86
    2Loving County, Texas169
    3King County, Texas272
    4Kenedy County, Texas404
    5Arthur County, Nebraska463
    As it turns out, the total population of the five least populated counties is just 1,394—roughly the same amount of people that live on the average Manhattan block.
     
    They also win because we only have two choices and both relevant parties work for the same Global Employers. Right now the Democrat Platform (their version of The Truth) is more popular with more people than the Republican Platform (their version of The Truth)....The Democrats are promising more "stuff" with no intention on delivering it and Republicans are proposing digging in on Traditional Values with no intention of delivering.

    Plus Democrats are promising a revision of Healthcare and Retirement income with no intention of delivering it and Republicans are promising to destroy National Healthcare options and Social Security with some pretty serious rhetoric about actually doing that. If yer a "Have" who wants to keep what he has worked for and thinks The Old Ways are the best Ways you only got one real choice. If you got nothing (working poor or lower middle class) and see yerself as a victim of The Old Ways then you'll likely be swayed by the guys who want to change out all The Old Ways for new Ways and get more stuff.

    Our Republic has run it's course and is crashing now. So long as we embrace the Two Party System that has led to this failure (because of loyalty to Party over loyalty to The Republic and our Fellow Citizens) it will continue to crash as America is irreparably divided (deliberately) into multiple complex fractions and no agreement or middle ground is possible when each side literally hates the opposing view..

    Right now Democrats seem to have a better Plan for motivating their potential voters but the pendulum will soon swing the other Way as it always does - never to the middle. Always to an extreme end.

    Democrats are going to loose across the board because of the disastrous results of their policies/ideology. They control everything and it’s been a disaster. The thread title is tongue in cheek. Only a true believer would take it literally.
    Contrary to the belief of democrats, there is only one reality, two genders, “anti racist” does not mean “racist”, and our money is neither limitless or valueless.

    Cicero predicted Democrats.
    “Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do.”

    They are far from unified. They have had control, all the D votes they need to pass anything they want....but they don't....they can't. There are always a few that step out and say....ahhh about that I don't think so. Manchin is the most popular and well known of the D's that have gone off the plantation, but there are others.

    I agree that they will loose across the board.....IF.....it really is a free and fair election, and I have strong doubts about that.

    In my whole life I've never won a fist fight where the other guy could punch me any where he wanted and I could not hit him back.

    I've never seen anyone win a fight like that except in movies.

    So I can't see why Republican leaders think it will work for us.

    I think your response is largely correct. Most normal people have day-to-day priorities and tasks to attend; they won't upend and devote their lives to "change" because they have shit to do. These emotional types will burn their own lives down to effect the "necessary change" if their feelz are strong enough.

    You are referring to a few very specific ideas or bills. I'm referring to the overall landscape. Both sham impeachments for example. What it comes down to is that Democrats understand politics much better than Republicans. That doesn't mean they win literally every single issue, of course not.

    they consistently beat repubs because they all get on board and follow the leader...good or bad they follow/united front

    republicans and conservatives start to argue the second the get any kind of power

    in 2 weeks there are always conservatives bitching about spending too much and i wont vote for that bill etc, even thought the bill is a step in the right direction compared to the current situation...weve seen it dozens of times

    then they start saying who goes to church more and whos is more conservative...which no one cares about because they are all lying anyway

    they didnt do shit under trump, we had a majority across the board...

    did they pass long lasting immigration
    did they pass long lasting crime bills
    did they pass long lasting tax laws

    trump had to scam for the wall
    trump had to scam for stay in mexico
    trump had to extend tax relief, not create new law

    they had no plans and implemented nothing, they were too busy infighting with each other

    trump signed how many executive orders because the congress and senate couldnt even get a simple bill to pass

    and because of that potato head just undid everything day 1

    yet under mr potato head they all get in line even when the squad is fighting, they still vote as a team

    same under bush 2, had the whole government for 4 years and they did nothing at all policy wise

    Have you considered the possibility of this being intentional? It is.

    There is always a possibility but do you remember during one of the trump debates 2 of them were arguing about who goes to church more..while he’s talking about trump stuff

    My brother called me up and said holy shit you’ve been saying that for years.

    That’s because I’ve seen it for years

    Outside help might be there but reoubscare too busy being right to win
     
    Most of the GOP is a trainwreck anymore, IMO. Their pathetic, desperate pleading for my money via an abundance of spam emails is only serving to drive me further away.

    Dems = GOP and GOP = Dems anymore, it seems. Maybe that’s just me, but an overwhelming majority of politicians from the “Big 2” say one thing out their ass and then do another. Hard pass.
     
    While there is virtual parity for super pac money ("For Dems", "Against Reps", "For Reps", "Against Dems") the Republicans aren't even in the game with the Dark Money. The Oligarchs of Silicon Valey, and Wall Street who have literally billions to spend on politics funnel all that money through 501 C4, and C6 corporations that do not have to disclose where that money is coming from. They are also under very limited rules for what spending they have to disclose.
    Do you think the IRS is agressively pursuing the Where and the What of all that Dark Money? Do you believe that the IRS is full of Republicans?

    More proof that the Republic is over. We are now living in a bureaucratic super state run by the DNC. The fund raising is pushing rope in a system that is specifically designed to elect the worst people on offer in America. Those who only care about power and enriching themselves.
     
    Stop looking at politics as Democrats and Republicans. They, in practice, are not very far apart and the population is much more diverse than two parties

    1666270728159.png


    And its really alot more complicated than that chart.

    The thing is Democrats are good at appealing to a broader base, while Republicans are generally more offensive to the masses on a whole, so they are less popular.

    But at the end of the day same bird.

    That is a stupid, and insane chart full of bullshit. What's a libertarian socialist? That's a total oxymoron, like a communist republican. Putting Republicans above Democrats on a scale of authoritarianism just demonstrates the person who put this together is a radical leftist who does not know the first thing about political science.

    Saying they're not far apart depends on perspective. You are demonstrating yours unequivocally.

    Republicans are closer to Nazis than they are to the British Labor Party? You are fucked in the head if you are reading and believing the bullshit you are posting.

    Lol... you sound angry there. Exactly why you are losing...

    Edit. The point being (which you completely missed) politics is a lot more diverse than just left and right.
     
    That's because to ignorant people unpleasant truths sounds angry; like when you tell a child not to do something in a quiet but firm voice and they say, "You are "screaming" at me."
    You-Are-Here-Sign.jpg


    It's only necessary to bastardize a political chart like that if you do not actually understand political science and you have an agenda. Democrats do not fit readily into any chart, because they have no morals, and their values are not based on human virtues, but on invented "virtues" like "Diversity". The unbridled lust for power can be demonstrated to not conform to the norms of political thought, but it can't be pigeonholed.

    Take abortion for example. There is no meaningful discussion on abortion because the left refuses to actually discuss the salient fact that they are talking about killing a human being. They talk about only about the "rights" of the Mother, and just pretend that there is only one "person".

    Where does that fit? It doesn't except if you accept that some people are more valuable than others, and some people are easier to murder than others, and this passes for political virtue for only the extremely stupid or dishonest.

    Bottom line, your chart is bullshit, and your politics is dysfunctional because your beliefs and values will never line up. It is like arguing with a child, which I don't do.

    Quite a few R's went along with the impeachments as well, some took their ball and went home remember Ryan. The landscape is VERY different from Trumps time. They do have control and could pass anything they want without a single R vote, but they can't. And their willing media will never point that out.

    What I think is we are starting to see where some in the D party want to take it, so far to the left with both the social changes as well as everything else.

    It might be good the stole the election from Trump, this is going to really unravel them as their core groups are bailing on them, Women, black, hispanic all jumping ship. Same reason every illegal can come across the border....unless you are from Cuba or Venezuela, talks with Mexico to take those people....wonder why that is....it is how those people vote.

    Look at it this way, it was at one time, just let me do in my bedroom what I want as long as both are adults and human. Now it is we are going to push our choices on everyone and we are going to start in grade school. No one is cool with this outside of those pushing for it to happen. All the way down to a girl getting her face smashed in by a trans volley ball player, it is all going to cost them. People have noticed and not are buying what media and .gov is selling anymore, they are getting their info from other places. Now we see a huge push to police these other places and naturally it is for "our own good".

    It is getting close to the flash point.

    dog that was wordy.

    I try to avoid these topics, an not interested in debate. However, take a deep dive into why you care about abortion. You will find you take that stand as virtue signaling. You dont care about the woman or the child. Everyone just really cares about themself and those close.

    We applaud those killing Germans for our way of life in the 1940s, and frown on a woman for killing to protect her way of life today, when she chooses herself over a baby. Really, no one cares....we just dont. Those that blow up abortion clinics probably care, but the rest are going to choose their way of life over protecting a child in the womb. You might have empathy for the child and the mother, but no tears are shed.

    If if it's your child aborting your grandchild, you might care, maybe shed tears, but everyone else....notta.

    I dont care what a woman chooses. I know if I had the organs to procreate, i know where my choice would be. Im only killing those that try to kill me or mine.

    Do I think abortion is right....generally no, but I could see how a decision could be made.
