Kasich was my favored candidate. In the end, he was also quite right about Trump.
i recall he had a funny position on global warming which is

"The moral depths were reached by the respected “adult in the room,” Ohio governor John Kasich, who agreed that it is happening but added that “we are going to burn [coal] in Ohio and we are not going to apologize for it.”

It’s always been amazing to me the way blacks have tried tried erase slavery instead of embrace American history. We fought that war. Right won.
Today, blacks sow hate, racism, and violence and blame instead of looking up and talking about how far the country has came since the war and since the sixties. If you say we haven’t come a long way as a country, you’re a liar.
We can always get better in all kinds of areas and there will always be extreme idiots but, nothing will improve as long the left keeps pushing and promoting the narrative.
I kind of agree with what you’re saying but you can’t lump all blacks together, and it’s not only blacks.

Proud Republican Against Trump (RAT)
The New York Post printed a misleading article about the subject. You must have heard one of the echoes.

What about Trump telling Xi Jinping that putting the Uighurs in concentration camps being "exactly the right thing to do"?

Supporting Trump seems like a bad way to return their hospitality.

All good questions. Sorry I have not answered until I have had adequate time to. I still work for a living.

I will spend the next four years ragging on Trump and anybody else who espouses Trumpism - just as I have done for the last four years.

I am a Republican. I have been since before I was old enough to vote. I still vote in the Republican primary. But on election day I cast my vote against my party - proudly. Several days later I was glad to see them defeated. And I will be damned if I will accept anyone else telling me what my party affiliation is. Barry Goldwater was a conservative Republican and I know in my heart that he had the balls to speak out against the kind of BS that the Republican Party under Trump stands for just as John McCain did. Lindsey Graham spoke out against it, so did Ted Cruz - but when they realized that Trumpism had seized the party they backed down like the cowards that they are and chose their own self-interest over both their principles (such as they were) and their country.

Guess what? We lost. And that means that Democrats get to set policy to the extent that they can. Nothing they do is going to end life as we know it as most of you believe due to your thought guides telling you so over and over and over. This is pure Nixonian politicing taken to a ridiculous extreme but there are no longer men of good conscience to stand up and say "at long last, have you no decency?"

Democrats aren't communists. Socialists and communists aren't the same thing no matter how many of you are uneducated enough to allow yourself to believe otherwise. There is nothing that is going to pass that pushes the boundaries anywhere near either Socialism or Communism. Life will go on.

Ever since Gingrich, the Republican Party has been pushing the Overton window to the right. Now it has gone so far to the right that it aligns with or exceeds the John Birch Society's views. In addition, the stock and trade of the Republican party started to become fools and liars - which came to full fruition with Trump.

You have let your thought guides tell you that democrats are communists, they want abortion even after birth, they want open borders, they're coming after your guns, they have set up re-education camps, they eat children in satanic rituals etc., but none of it is true. We saw the consequences in the shameful display of hate and ignorance at the Capitol on January 6th. Patriots? Don't make me laugh.

There is nothing that is going to happen in the next four years that is going to end our country no matter how gullible you are in believing Trump. I have traveled the world extensively and I have seen many countries that have instituted policies that are to the left of anything the Democrats are proposing - and life goes on.

Oh no Biden said that the Uighur genocide is cultural. It is, cultural genocide. I haven't looked up his full context yet but I will. I don't trust the people here to do it for me since your brain trust actually seems to believe that the media is ignoring the downturn in Corona virus cases and is ignorant enough to post and article that does just that in paragraph four and yet still believes it is true. This would be embarassing if you had the intelligence to realize it. Trump told the world in his inaugural address that we would no longer judge foreign countries based on our standards of human rights and then promptly sucked up to every two bit dictator he could. His foreign policy followed this path and was totally inept at protecting our interests. North Korea is a good example, he gained nothing from Kim Jong Un but a note saying how great Trump is while giving them pretty much everything they wanted and far more than they ever thought possible. What did Trump tell Xi Jingping about the Uighur camps? From multiple firsthand sources, he told him that putting them in concentration camps was "exactly the right thing to do". So spare me your crocodile tears over the Uighurs.

The Republican Party is now a sad parody of the party I have belonged to my whole life and I am not alone in feeling that way. There are enough of me out there to have lost the Republican Party the Presidency - but still far too few. The Party needs a colon cleanse and I had hoped that it would be coming after the election. But the dumbness and hate is too strong for that to happen. I hope it will in the future.

Meanwhile, today's so called "Republicans" are hard at work demonizing those that don't agree with them as if their were Julius Streicher. Anybody that opposes them in the slightest way is immediately and ignorantly called "A Communiss" and their views are cancelled while all the while, you rage about Cancel Culture. This has been exactly my experience on this very forum.

There is little left of the party now but liars and fools. Unfortunately, that also means that there are few intelligent men of principle to restrain them. But don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. Gonna be right here kicking against the pricks.
You should start including a tldr short version.
Here I’ll go ahead and do this one for you as a good will gesture.
TLDR: ORANGE MAN SUPER BAD!!!! REEEEEEEE!!! IM REPUBLICAN AND HATE REPUBLICANS! REEEEE!!!

I don’t know a single Republican that would cast their vote for the modern day democrat party to defeat Trump. Especially with all the talk of packing the Supreme Court, adding states to pack the senate, getting rid of the filibuster to ram through socialist programs and ridding the country of the electoral college.

I never saw the Trump quote before you brought it up. I have seen him condemn what they're doing. But you can obfuscate all you want, Biden just said in a CNN town hall that the Chinese imprisoning over a million Uighurs, along with forcing them into slave labor, and don't forget executing them and harvesting their organs, is a "cultural issue." If they invade Taiwan, and Biden says it's an internal matter of national sovereignty, then we'll know he's truly bought and paid for. I'm assuming since Taiwan has been a separate state since the 30's and practicing capitalism that you'll enthusiastically support their remaining so? By the way some of our woke corporations like Nike have benefited directly from Chinese slave labor.

Sorry, that’s just not factual. I realize you believe it’s true, but the evidence to support your belief doesn’t exist.
“dangerous misinformation” is being deleted. To right wingers perspective, their views are being silenced. To a left winger, lies are being snuffed out. So it all depends on your perspective.

Are you ignorant? Have you not seen Biden's orders to ICE and the Border Patrol about allowing in asylum seekers who Trump had waiting in Mexico? Back to the Obama era where they're given a court date and released into our country with most never showing up in court. And criminal illegals aren't being deported for most crimes including sexual assault. And what does his NY Post article have to do with me. For someone so cock sure of himself you seem to live on assumptions.
obama was deporter in chief.

The reason that conservatives have been kicked out of academia, journalism, administrative jobs, HR, and all the rest:

Conservatives will hire and promote anybody and don't cancel people.
Lefties will hire and promote lefties.

Over time, that's a 100% certain way of losing every institution.

Instead of whining about it, conservatives need to take the few institutions and parties they have left and ruthlessly eject every suspect person.

Whining about cancel culture doesn't do anything. You have to outcancel the communists.
