How can a party or ideology "win" in such an evenly-divided country?

[JoeB131]

So you're comfortable with wild swings back and forth in legislation and policy?

Do you think that's healthy?

Nope, I'm for eventually crushing the right wing completely, for their own good.

Unequal representation and an electoral college. Simples.

And the reason they came together and gave us the Constitution is because they were all committed to LIBERTY!!!

Oh, was that it. I thought they were a bunch of slave-raping assholes who didn't want to pay their fair share.

What is going to happen if your side gives up every time it's elected, but the other side pushes through? That should answer the question.

Peaceful separation is what we should be aiming for, but the parasitical left won't ever allow it. So it looks like a civil war as the gap widens.

You Trailer Trash in the Red States would be a third world country without the big cities to subsidize your lifestyle.

Actually big cities wouldn't even exist without the Red Areas. Cities are where generations go to die. After millions of years of surviving, city is the graveyard.

I hope that is the case for Joe B as well.

Actually, we'd do just fine. You inbreds can only grow corn because we subsidize you with taxes.

You can ignore the facts as long as you like, but hopefully they won't ignore you.

The facts are, most of the hard work in the red states are being done by undocumented workers... that's what you guys are all afraid of, they might become citizens some day.

Joe B I am not interested in your fantasies. Write a novel if you want to document them.

We are more divided, and the LEFT has become more, and more Radical and Far Left. The Right has not become more far right as the Media, and Left claim in their constant Propaganda. Look at their positions over the last four or five decades. Do your own research. Don't allow the media to spin it, outright lie and corrupt you.

Most elections are won my very slim margins today, so whomever wins the Moderates and Undecides (the wishy washy, non committal people, often without values) usually wins the election.

If you agree with me that (a) the sides of the spectrum are only getting more divided, that (b) they're becoming less and less interested in working together, and that (c) the two "sides" are fairly evenly divided, here's a question:

What is the point of barely pushing through, on a purely partisan basis, agendas and legislation that only reflect "your side" of the country? Doesn't it seem temporary to you?

Doesn't it make sense that legislation that is the result of collaboration will likely be more permanent, since both "sides" have skin in the game?

What is your best argument for this country being ruled on a purely partisan basis, back and forth, back and forth?

Even though you are sadly too ignorant to even know it, your question is the basis for why Trump correctly called Fake News the Enemy of the people.

The country would not be divided if the people were told the truth. But right now half of America believes lies and propaganda and the lies form their opinions and their votes.

This forum is a perfect example: You and the Democrats here post lies and propaganda and actually believe some of it. YOU are the division in America. When confronted with facts the Left always just uses the usual weapons, fear and accusations of hate, racism, blah blah blah.

Great example: Hispanic pastors tour border facility lambasted by AOC and say they are ‘shocked by misinformation’

Mac's advocacy meanwhile veers dangerously close to dismissing all parties, and replacing an admittedly deeply flawed two-party system with populist autocracy sailing under the banner of "reason" at best, or rather fascism. Voters in favor of their respective preferred party play no role whatsoever in his arguments.

Now, you're coming out in favor of one-party rule, which is another way of arguing in favor of a trend toward populist autocracy, or even fascism. Goes without saying, voters in favor of the GOP also play no role in your argument.

I'd say, showing some decent respect for fellow citizens, their struggles, interests, and allegiances, along with the fact they deserve representation as much as you and everyone else does, would do your arguments some good.

anybody ever heard of the constitution???

Lol
The reason why trump won... No one trusts and believes asswipes like yourself...

The only way to eliminate the clown show is to end the clown propaganda that rural dupes believe....... Breaking... Hillary Obama Democrats are honest, the rich do not pay enough in Taxes we have a flat tax system if you count all taxes. Everything you know is wrong. Five minutes of debate would end scumbags like Sean and Rush etc etc....

This above, and the idiot who typed it, is the problem.
