The Republican party is not turning into some extremist party.

Technically accurate!

If the Republican party ever was extremist, I would go to independent.

Apparently some of the Trans community think FOSTA, a bipartisan plan, is a Republican attack on the trans community because trans people are blackballed from real every day lives and have to resort to sex work to make a living.

(Hopefully the "some" in my comment is limited to the few I have seen say it). Anecdotal you would say. Maybe.


Yeah, I've never heard anything like that. The most common complaint is something along the lines of:

The law has been criticized by many sex workers and advocates because it conflates voluntary sex work with victims trafficked into the industry. Critics also argue that the legislation will only push both sex trafficking and voluntary sex work further underground, which would put both groups in even more danger.

Democrats vastly have catered to positions I do not care for in elections. Granted Republicans do have their own positions I do not care for with guns and abortion (mostly).

Both Republicans and Democrats are mostly just conservatuve candidates. I would actually be interested to see who was the most liberal candidate they ran. Bernie was a liberal and he was derided as being too far left.

Usually I am +.5 / +.5.

This is the first time I have ever I have fallen into the bottom left box. Changing ideas on punishment to rehabilitation is the only thing I can think of.

Btw: The test is flawed some in that it doesn't have enough questions. I would likely be in the upper right box if it did. But, obviously not very far into it.

Just as a source.

That would be an extraordinary good thing, although yes, he just never should have dropped out in the first place. Maybe someone finally pointed out it would give him more leverage with China on the trade dispute. (Although that seems to be easing a bit as well).

Fingers crossed.

WATCH: During her confirmation hearing this morning (yes, this morning in 2018), judicial nominee Wendy Vitter refused to say whether she agreed with the result in Brown v. Board of Education. #UnfitToJudge


Yeeeeesh.

From watching the video it sure SOUNDS like she is saying she doesnt agree with it, without saying as such.

Where do they find these people?

Ehhh its hard to give credit for him doing the thing he could have easily had and was on the table waiting for his approval that he upended because hes a literal baby and then going back to it because doing it any other way was too hard.

Nah, she knew what it is.

The answer she gave was almost verbatim the answer nominees have been giving when they disagree with Roe vs. Wade but don't want to outright say so.

Watch this somehow tie back into Cambridge Analytica when they confessed to sending women to their clients for later bribes.
