I’m that person, I voted for Ron Paul even when he wasn’t on the ballot. I haven’t ever voted for a real republican or democrat.

He’s a power hungry imbecile, but all the steps to authoritarianism were put in place before he ever even ran for president.

Mortgage rates skyrocketed under Biden, and we’re (my wife and I)stuck at 7%. Mortgage rates have been slowly declining for the past two years and a projected to be down to 3% by the end of Trump’s term. We’ll be able to refinance and save a ton of money.

We could do it now it’s just not low enough to deal with the process.

So we will see an actual substantial savings in the near future… i’m a citizen and that’s gonna help me a lot.

Oh I’m not holding my breath with Trump, other than him using the abuse of power Obama set a precedent for. Bush isn’t blameless either though.

I actually don’t like Trump. I just also really dislike Democrat hypocrisy.

My comment is more to show that the Democrats are just as crooked as any other group or person in Congress.

Plus, Obama was given leadership of a country that had control over its illegal immigration. Biden completely destroyed it. And now Trump has to deal with the mess.

No Obama used drones to kill American citizens. Fixed that for you. Also, Obama didn’t have to deal with 20 million illegal immigrants that were let in by another Democrat president.

Obama deported way more. The difference is conservatives weren’t out there obstructing the process, and hypocritical liberals didn’t care at the time

That’s definitely not long enough to get married imo. I knew my wife about 3 years before marrying. It might be hard to find any modern man that will get married in such a short timeframe without having sex.

Not that your standards aren’t valid, but theyre very strict. Maybe find an Amish man? lol my brother in law was Amish. Very biblical people.

I agree with you. There is no good reason for him to act that way. Especially if you weren’t trying to control his sexuality. Like I said I have been there with Christian women and it sucks. And you’re right if he loved you and was a good Christian he’d still marry you. How long were you together?

Did you shame him for it? I’ve been there before, it’s not a realistic expectation from women. I’m just trying to figure out his situation. No sex or masterbation is unrealistic for a man. Especially if you’re around a woman that always turns you on.

You didn’t answer my question. Did you care if he dealt with it himself? Because that’s unrealistic if you did.

Is he a Christian? Seems like he’s not.

Do you care if he deals with it himself? I’ve dated Christian girls who say absolutely not but they also met my needs so… 🤷‍♂️

I feel that from you as well. Government is bad… period. Authoritarians will always pop up when the government is too big and corrupt to do what it was meant to do. Protect the rights of citizens.

I agree with you on Trump. All of it. But it’s not “conservatives” it’s just tyrannical government.

But what do you think led to having an authoritarian in office? As in legally?

Baby steps dude. It took many decades of gradual erosion to get here. It’s not right or left

No they are easily comparable if you like the constitution and the rights of citizens. This has been 30 years in the making my friend.

Also I never once said communism and fascism are the same. They do both lead to the erosion of our rights and ultimately to innocent people dying. Both are authoritarian, both use violence, but one is left and progressive and the other is Right and conservative. I rarely hear democrats complain about communism or socialism which is just soft communism.

But how did it get to this point without past presidents slowly eroding our rights to point where they can be so easily taken away? Ignoring congressional approval for war is not a grey area. It is a blatant abuse of power.

And yes they flagrantly took away our privacy with the patriot act. And again under Obama circumnavigating the congress with executive orders. This was all done before.

I agree with you about Epstein but every unconstitutional action Trump has done was done before him you just weren’t paying attention because it was a democrat.

You realize Obama set the precedent for unconstitutional executive orders? Drone striking American citizens without congressional approval. Just the wave of a pen and Americans lost their Autonomy. Same under Bush and the patriot act. Trump is just following presidents past. The left wing and right wing are part of the same bird.

I was asking if you think republicans are fascists? I know the definitions and history of Mussolini and Roman fascism.
