We don't need your trust.

The only benefit you seek Classic Xer from politics is to defend trickle-down neoliberalism, keep your taxes low and keep your guns. We on the Left are not interested in those things. I don't care if you lose your guns or have to pay higher taxes.

The American Right is losing its patience already. It has attacked the capitol and state capitols and threatened election workers with violence. It is shutting down democracy.

The American Right didn't attack the capitol. A bunch of crazy anarchist's forced entry and took over the capitol.

Hell, the American Right basically gave the Left the power that it has and is losing today. You see, the rest of America had to see for themselves that the American Right has been right about the Left the entire time.

No one other than people like you care about the Capital Putsch or care about your views of Trump. You are in the same boat as Eric. Like I said the other day, you're fate is sealed. So, what blue (bad place) would  you prefer to die in? You have a choice now but you won't have it for much longer.

I really thought the Millennials would turn the country around. Now it looks like they have been absorbed into Classic Xer's "America". I guess my prediction is not going to turn out. What I expect now is just more and more-severe disaster, with no further basis for any recovery in any future turning. America has been right-wing now for over 40 years. It might as well be Russia or China by now.

I don't think the Millennials have moved to the right; they've moved to the corner.  When did they vote in earnest?  They liked BHO, and some came out to oppose Trump.  But as a rule, they feel screwed and neglected by the older gens, and they're right.  They see the two parties as Tweedledum and Tweedledee.  This is the problem the Democrats can't see.  By trying to add to their base from the middle, they lose any chance at adding the masses waiting for someone to lead them.

We are in an ugly, distressing time. Trump did much to make it so.

I hope that we are closer to the new day of democratic renewal of a political experiment than to its end. The shadows are longest both just after sunrise and just before sunset.

Donald Trump still has a personality cult. Personality cults can long outlast the object of adulation, as is so with Benito Mussolini, Josef Stalin, and Mao Zedong. We still have Mafia groupies who still admire the rapacious, corrupt, murderous capi di tutti capi. Osama bin Laden and abu-Musab al-Zarqawi  will likely have admirers for the next few decades. 

I'm going with the legal process that can take down someone like John Gotti. Nobody needs any tortures to extract abject confessions.

I've heard rumors that some of the leaders that you're talking about may be government informants. Somethings not right about the current Democratic investigation. It's to partisan or one sided to be viewed as legitimate. Plus, Nancy has given herself immunity even though she was technically the one in charge of security at the time. It's going to be interesting to see what all comes out when the Republicans are in charge, Like I've said, the government has a major credibility issue that's going to have to be addressed sooner than later.

I figure at least one of the Trump criminal conspiracies will lead to a conviction.  Felons cannot hold elective office, which would prevent him from serving again, if not people throwing their votes away...

How many Millennials do you actually know?  I can say that I know many.  Of that 'many', most find politics repugnant, and are making a decision to move on alone, or in tandem with others in their respective cohorts.  To a large extent, it's the reason they have been unwilling to take jobs they hate and do work they find unacceptable.  They seem willing to have less to be freer, and free includes being free of people like you ... and me, for that matter.  Don't count on then being allies.

How long can made-up delusions serve you guys? The crazy anarchists were all chanting Trump slogans, and the Republican Party is Trump's Party; they are all the same American Right-wing.

I condemn those 2 senators because they are ceding power to you guys. If you guys take over the state, the state will likely not be able to stop voter suppression and authoritarian take-over of our elections by party hacks. So those two senators are sending the USA down the road to civil war.

Individuals on the right are variously for death by Covid, prejudice, overthrowing democracy, environmental irresponsibility, and supporting a criminal.  I don't see where they are correct. Granted your imaginary residents of Acirema do not match up with the right, but one guy's opinion doesn't count for a lot.

Possible explanations, as I do not know the community in which you live:

1. You live in a changing era, one whose rural character is disappearing and in which life is getting more crowded, with heavier traffic, the squeezing-out of mom-and-pop businesses in favor of chains and such retailing entities as Walgreen's, Rite-Aid, CVS,
s Target, Costco, and Wal-Mart. If you don't have to live with poverty, rural life is far less stressful.

2. You live in a monocultural area in which the biggest divide is between Catholics and Protestants in culture. Such places tend to be much more politically conservative than others in which diversity exists.

3. You are as expressive of your cranky (and that is the most charitable way to describe them) in personal life as here. Everybody knows that you are an arch-reactionary devoid of any nuance and wisely tells you exactly what you want to believe to avoid your ire. You might have all sorts of right-wing banners "Trump won and you know it", F--K BIDEN", a rattlesnake flag, and a "Blue Lives Matter" banner that tell a liberal to talk only about things devoid of political import.

I live in a rather large ( square mile wise) 2nd tier suburban community with a population of about 42,000 people today. Population wise, it's pretty diverse ( lots of whites, quite a few blacks and a lot of browns and there isn't an ongoing squabble between Protestants and Catholics and there hasn't really been one during my lifetime either. The vast majority are working people who either own homes ( mansions, McMansions, typical residential homes, condo's, town homes and trailer houses ) or rent apartments. A relatively small portion live in federally subsidized housing projects or section 8 apartments or apartment complexes and public housing mainly funded by the state/county. I don't have any of the stuff  (right wing banners or bumper stickers that you claimed. Go figure, you are wrong about me once again. At what point do you give on stereotypes or are stereotypes the only thing you know about Republican voters today? You better start figuring it out soon because you're losing more of the country as we speak. So, how reliant are you upon the country these days? What's going to happen to you when 2/3 of the country says good bye and good riddance? Like I've said, you've got a few years to figure it out if you're lucky but that's about it.
