Governor Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) On 8/20/2023 at 12:03 AM, Andy1 said: The last Republican platform was whatever Trump wanted. Im guessing the current platform top 5 is: Guns for all, overturn any laws limiting access to guns. Repeal gay marriage. Oppose anything related to LGBTQ. Nationwide abortion ban Tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. Christianity religion in the schools Really the biggest one is Privatization via the funneling of tax payer dollars into private hands. They’ve been trying to cause the collapse of the public school system for at least 50 years now. Same thing with social security, the post office, and everything else. Destroy it, then privatize it. That’s why we see all of this recent nonsense with the school boards, culture wars, etc. That’s what the Heritage Foundation would like more than anything else and they created the platform Trump is currently running on. When the GOP saw the demographic shifts on the horizon back in 2003, they decided to focus primarily on the courts since there just wouldn’t be that many more elections left to win in the future. Mitch immediately started that process and that has continued to today. That was strictly a survival tactic because they already knew the party wasn’t gonna make it another generation. Here we are. This might be the end. The prediction was that unless the GOP did an absolute 180 on most issues, became a “big tent” party like the Dems recently did, and reached out to minorities, they would become a permanent minority party in 20 years. I think we’re there after this election. They obviously did the opposite. lol. Trump might’ve set them back another 20 years. They can’t even get to the rebuild stage until he’s totally out of the picture. Now he’s got his family and others embedded throughout, family controls the party’s money, etc. He’s not gonna stop until there’s nothing left. It might not ever come back. Not in my lifetime at least. Edited March 12 by Governor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First step is to cripple agencies and convince Americans that everything is horrible and government can’t function. Then create the dream that all problems are solved once the function of the agency is in private hands. There are now proposals to privatize the role of the TSA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiGoose Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Not even pretending they’re not the bad guys. Louisiana lawmakers vote to remove lunch breaks for child workers, cut unemployment benefits “Lawmakers on a Louisiana House committee voted Thursday to repeal a law requiring employers to give child workers lunch breaks and to slash unemployment benefits — part of a Republican-backed push to roll back regulations on companies and reduce aid for injured and unemployed workers.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
