To that end, Social Security benefits ending sooner is something that a huge number of older voters will care about.    I have a little doubt that politically something will be done to support Social Security under any party’s administration.  That issue transcends party politics and will galvanize old people not able to meet their bills if Elon and the GOP go full-on stupid ideology and misplaced traitorous loyalty over politics. 

My initial reaction is always to assume no one could be that stupid, and then I remember it is Donald Trump.

The other thing to remember is that MAGA voters honestly never believe something bad will happen to themselves. That is problematic.   That is why innOhio they can focus on transgender junior high  student athletes in bum fuck Oklahoma.  That mindset is derived in part because they have no inkling that their lives could take a disastrous downturn from Trump’s policies.    In other words, if you have a straight issue showdown between getting Social Security and transgender issues, old people would knit and gift transgender people sweaters if it meant keeping their Medicare and Social Security.

Selfish self interest and an absence of empathy is what got us here, and that same selfish self-interest might work to help the Democrats with older voters - and fired voters - and losing your house because you can’t make a house note voters - and pissing off all of those relatives who have to take in various generations of family members who can’t make it now. 

Hating on gay and trans people is a luxury these people have enjoyed - that is, so long as their far, far, far more important self-interests are not being negatively impacted.  

TL;DR This crap just might get some traction from older Trump voters. 

What are they gonna do about it now? The time to vote may just be over and they can barely wobble, much less run and take cover in their dream war scenarios. They willingly took us to the edge of the cliff and are frightened we may go over? That democracy experiment they played chicken with, how’s it working out?

This time I think I actually represented your view on gerrymandering accurately.  I remember the discussion on that issue, and my concern was that it led to members of congress not representing their district’s interests, by creating districts that aren’t actually places or real communities of interest. Your view at that time was that the congressional delegation should more or less map to the way the state votes in presidential elections. Is that not your view? Has you view changed?

Are you just trying to get a conservative to post on here so the rest of the posters can shit on me?

As you know I don’t consider you a conservative in any real philosophical sense, but I would love for more Republicans to post here.

You're not a conservative. There is zero hope for you until you can be honest with yourself.
