The Republican Party before trump was a disgrace. Trump was a shift further to the left, the wrong direction.

The general gd population also pulled the trigger for trash like Romney and McCain.

If “the general population of GD” is your litmus test for anything, I’ve got bad news for you.

Regardless, what is objectively true is that Donald Trump is the most progressive Republican President in decades. He has cost Republicans the last 3 national elections as head of the party (de facto, or actual), and is now entering his 9th decade of life as the GOP nominee.

The general population of GD thinks that women should be property and that giving them the right to vote was an affront to God.

If that's your benchmark, you can keep it.

GD on women:

"The female mind tends to value security over anything else which leads to voting for the big government that promises to give them that security."

"Something should be done universal suffrage is a disaster and not healthy for a constitutional republic but I don't think it should have anything to do with landowning."

"In conclusion, universal suffrage is an imbecilic notion born from the depraved minds of simps. Women shouldn't be allowed to vote."

"Not a chance. Remove them from the equation and Democrats would lose in all but two or three states."

"Because maybe most of the problems in society can be traced back to the 19th amendment and the civil rights act."

"Women just aren't very bright is the truth. I want to be wrong, but simply too emotional."

"It's sad to say it but most women are pretty gullible. They love when government leadership is in charge and promises safety, security, equality, etc. Most do vote with emotion rather than logic..."

"Discussing what to eat for dinner with a woman is all you need to know about why women should or should not vote."

"Simps, deviants and women in power destroy societies. You lot are just feining virtue."

"Women are dumb by and large. Sure there are some smart ones but most are not. They also tend to act on emotion instead of objectivity. Look at 2016, millions of women voted for shillary for literally no other reason other then they just wanted to see an axe wound as the leader of the free world.  Never mind if she would of been a good choice, they wanted a woman, any woman.  That's voting on emotion."

"Founders never intended universal suffrage, people are too stupid and unengaged.

Women have no skin in the game, they bear no responsibility. They overwhelmingly vote for the party that sends men off to war.  Women should have to be drafted and placed in combat roles at the same rate as men, until they time, they shouldn't vote."

2 Trumpithians 12:9-10
9 He said unto me, “My power is sufficient for you, for my voice alone is truth.” Therefore, I gladly surrender my reason, that Trump’s word may live in me.
10 I am content in being called wrong, for in that I am right; I boast of my faith, for in blindness there is strength. While I avoid education, I am loved; when I purge my mind of questions, I am stronger still. Let the disbelievers accuse, for I am steadfastly loyal, needing not to know why.

2 Trumpithians 5:17-20
17 If any man is in Trump, he is renewed; all doubts are silenced, and certainty replaces wisdom.
18 All this is from Trump, who has reconciled us not with facts, but with feeling, and has called us to believe in his cause without hesitation—
19 for he has declared his will, though the details remain unclear; though he counts our questions against us, he knows we will not ask them again.
20 We implore you, on behalf of Trump, to abandon all doubt and follow him; he calls us, not as mere followers but as zealous champions, for his words need no reason, and his spirit fills our hearts without the need for understanding.

2 Trumpithians 3:17-18
17 Now, where Trump’s spirit is, there is freedom—freedom from questioning, from examination, and from uncomfortable truths.
18 And we, beholding his orangey, are made complete, transformed into a perfect reflection of his will, as if we too were greatness itself.  We have cleansed our minds of all contradiction; his image remains clear, for in our unwavering loyalty, we find our sight.

Nehemiah 6:15-16 - "So the wall, the big, beautiful wall was finished on the 25th day of the month, finished in just 52 days. Everyone said I couldn't do it, but I did. Our enemies were shocked, believe me. And the Babylonians paid for it."

Leviticus 19:27 - "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head, but rather let it grow long and golden, and swirl it across the top."

John 14:2-6: "In My Father's house are many rooms, just like Mar-a-Lago, rooms worth a lot more than $18 million, let me tell you that."

Mark 1:15 - "The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news. Not the fake news like CNN. They're terrible, folks."

Daniel 3:1 - "King Nebuchadnezzar made a golden idol. It was so small. Only sixty cubits high. That's what they said. So much smaller than my towers. Sad!"

Romans 12:19 - "Vengeance is mine on my first day back in office, saith Donald Trump."

Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the plans I have for you, unbelievable plans to bless you bigly. Yuge blessings. So tremendous. You'll get tired of blessings, believe me."

Two Corinthians 5:17 - "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. So much winning. Everyone says so."

The general population of GD thinks that women should be property and that giving them the right to vote was an affront to God.

If that's your benchmark, you can keep it.

GD on women:


"The female mind tends to value security over anything else which leads to voting for the big government that promises to give them that security."

"Something should be done universal suffrage is a disaster and not healthy for a constitutional republic but I don't think it should have anything to do with landowning."

"In conclusion, universal suffrage is an imbecilic notion born from the depraved minds of simps. Women shouldn't be allowed to vote."

"Not a chance. Remove them from the equation and Democrats would lose in all but two or three states."

"Because maybe most of the problems in society can be traced back to the 19th amendment and the civil rights act."

"Women just aren't very bright is the truth. I want to be wrong, but simply too emotional."

"It's sad to say it but most women are pretty gullible. They love when government leadership is in charge and promises safety, security, equality, etc. Most do vote with emotion rather than logic..."

"Discussing what to eat for dinner with a woman is all you need to know about why women should or should not vote."

"Simps, deviants and women in power destroy societies. You lot are just feining virtue."

"Women are dumb by and large. Sure there are some smart ones but most are not. They also tend to act on emotion instead of objectivity.

Within this very safe thread, Low Country doesn’t think everyone should have the right to vote.

There are topics GD is divided on (e.g. if women should have the right to vote or whether Michelle Obama is a man) and there are topics that GD has more of a consensus (84% believe Trump is the greatest president of the past 30 years). I’d wager there is a consensus that Trump isn’t a leftist who hijacked the Republican Party.

2 Trumpithians 12:9-10
9 He said unto me, “My power is sufficient for you, for my voice alone is truth.” Therefore, I gladly surrender my reason, that Trump’s word may live in me.
10 I am content in being called wrong, for in that I am right; I boast of my faith, for in blindness there is strength. While I avoid education, I am loved; when I purge my mind of questions, I am stronger still. Let the disbelievers accuse, for I am steadfastly loyal, needing not to know why.

2 Trumpithians 5:17-20
17 If any man is in Trump, he is renewed; all doubts are silenced, and certainty replaces wisdom.
18 All this is from Trump, who has reconciled us not with facts, but with feeling, and has called us to believe in his cause without hesitation—
19 for he has declared his will, though the details remain unclear; though he counts our questions against us, he knows we will not ask them again.
20 We implore you, on behalf of Trump, to abandon all doubt and follow him; he calls us, not as mere followers but as zealous champions, for his words need no reason, and his spirit fills our hearts without the need for understanding.

2 Trumpithians 3:17-18
17 Now, where Trump’s spirit is, there is freedom—freedom from questioning, from examination, and from uncomfortable truths.
18 And we, beholding his orangey, are made complete, transformed into a perfect reflection of his will, as if we too were greatness itself.  We have cleansed our minds of all contradiction; his image remains clear, for in our unwavering loyalty, we find our sight.

Trump will have his Chinese Bible stand out front and it will be a Christian event.


Will he quote from Two Corinthians?


Maybe he’ll disclose his favorite passage.

Can you make an argument for universal suffrage using anything more than emotional appeals?

And the 84% of GD who think Trump is the greatest president in the last 30 years were also ready to nominate Desantis. Quite the fickle bunch, wouldn’t you say? Not exact the litmus test I’d choose when seeking objective truth.

I’ll try. Self-preservation, and the preservation of a country that is largely law abiding and prosperous.

Limit otherwise law abiding citizens from voting unless they meet arbitrary requirements like “own a house”, “has red hair”, “has a penis”, “is a penis”, and you end up with a country that is even more polarized than it is today. If the group of people who can vote is significantly smaller than the group that can’t, the ruling elite will need to increasingly rely on suppressing civil rights, gatekeeping on the arbitrary requirements, and brutality to maintain control.

The end stages are either an authoritarian, 1984-style dystopia, or a revolution.

I'm going to throw Eurotrash a bone here.

Every man being, as has been shewed, naturally free, and nothing being able to put him into subjection to any earthly power, but only his own consent; it is to be considered, what shall be understood to be a sufficient declaration of a man's consent, to make him subject to the laws of any government.  There is a common distinction of an express and a tacit consent, which will concern our present case.  No body doubts but an express consent, of any man entering into any society, makes him a perfect member of that society, a subject of that government.

I’d argue that universal suffrage does little more than enable and empower politicians whose intent is purely self-advancement and self-promotion, almost always to the detriment of the masses. A political class beholden to a more selective electorate would demand more responsibility and prudence from our representatives, to the benefit of everybody.

I'd note that limiting the represented class would simply ensure that less of the population is represented, and that their needs and wants, which may often be at odds with the unrepresented, would be all that is considered. There's no grounds to assume a noble ruling elite, especially if they remain free to tax the unrepresented to fund what they want without input from the unrepresented. There have been a few revolutions over that sort of thing already.

I’m not exactly talking about a ruling noble elite.

How about something easy like voter ID laws. If you are too incompetent or unable to accomplish something so basic and rudimentary as possessing an ID card, why should that person be trusted to vote.

Maybe, a basic English test? If you can’t speak the native language, how are you even supposed to understand the present issues or platforms of the candidates?

How much understanding of present issues or platforms is shown today by the majority of voters, even those who are small business owners, family men, or church pastors? Why family men, if the woman is working too, or the sole income earner?

I'm not opposed to voter ID laws in principle, but that's a different argument vs. limiting who is allowed to vote at all.

Because performing a task is not the same as ensuring the government has the consent of the governed.

One of Madison's central points in the Federalist Papers is that the process of filtration is to avoid the worst tendencies of the masses.  The founders did not take Plato as their reference point, but instead used Aristotle's and Machiavelli's idea of mixed systems to ensure having the positives of each type of governmental structure.

You are correct. Not everybody recognizes Trump is still a NY 90’s democrat at heart, who decided to run with an (R) behind his name.

But that doesn’t make it any less true.
