I don’t agree with you. Most voters oppose the school voucher program here in Texas, but the local leadership of the Republican Party made sure that any candidate who opposed the vouchers got an opponent, and the local party leadership rallied around the candidate who supported vouchers… we’ve never seen local party leadership at sitting local rep like this area went after Dade Phelan last fall. The local party went as far as censuring him. How does that even happen? They’re out of control ideologues. They literally pick the most extreme candidate other because he/she most closely aligns with their own radical beliefs. To put it frankly, moderates don’t feel strongly enough about moderate stands on issues to devote their lives to fighting for the middle. Extremists do. Most of us here are more interested politically than 97% of the population. And we’re not interested enough to get involved locally. Those people who DO care enough to attend meetings, etc… are just mean, hateful people who devote their lives to fighting “the other guys,” whether they be of the the same party or not. And they’re the ones who pick the candidates we vote for. You seem level headed. Go down to your local Republican Party meeting and tell them how you feel… you’ll be a dirty RINO in minutes.

The problem is that the most hardcore extremists are who populate the local party machines. The masses don’t pick the candidates that we vote on in the fall…. The whackjobs who actually vote in the primaries keep selecting the most extreme candidates on both sides of the aisle. Normal people don’t spend time on message boards engaging in political discourse… but with the exception of Reagan, I don’t sense the type of dedication from any of yall that would indicate a willingness to participate in the local party from either side. The truth is that most people don’t vote general elections. And only a fraction of that fraction also vote in the primaries where general elections candidates are chosen. The candidates are handpicked by the most fervent ideologues among us, and it shows by the way we keep getting dog crap candidates like Trump. And it was worse than that when the Ds circumvented their primary voters to pick VP Harris to run against Trump in 24. We need to wrestle control of the parties from the whackos or the American Experiment is over. Who am I kidding? It’s already over. We’re just waiting on the credits to roll.

From a 2002 article about Epstein that quoted Trump himself. “Epstein likes to tell people that he’s a loner, a man who’s never touched alcohol or drugs, and one whose nightlife is far from energetic. And yet if you talk to Donald Trump, a different Epstein emerges. “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.” [Hidden Content] Isn’t ironic that Epstein’s buddy who mentioned Epstein’s love for young women 20 years ago is the same exact guy who’s telling us “there’s nothing to see here?”

I just think it’s comical that yall support the candidate that most closely aligns with your personal beliefs. I guess yall believe in the protecting pedophiles from being exposed. Not shocking since yall already overlooked philandering and sexual assaults. It’s the next logical step. “We don’t want them trans people in our schools! We must protect the kids!” Closely followed by: ”We don’t want those pedophiles exposed!! It could harm their reputations and chances of re-election!”
