We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.
-
Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

I find it strange that people would admit they are so stuck in the us vs them mentality that they would support people they knew were not qualified.
Biden was more than qualified at the beginning of his presidency, but his proposed policies sucked and many of his implemented policies still do suck many ways.
But it's not Biden saying immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country and echoing Hitler nor threatening to be a dictator for any amount of time. The Us v Them mentality doesn't make a pragmatic choice to preserve America's foundational institution, a representative republic; rather, it rationalizes support for a wannabe dictator. It's the ultimate identity politics.
The Man couldn't carry a conversation in a bag even then.
Anyone else would've been put into a care home.
Mitch "The Freeze" McConnell is still not in a care home...and between him and Biden...McConnell definitely needs it more.
You have grossly misread the situation. We unfortunately have a two party system, meaning it is inherently an evil vs lesser evil system, it's inherently an us vs them system.
None of the candidates are qualified or good. So at the bare minimum I'm going to vote for the one that isn't parroting Hitler.
Then why did you vote for Biden?
Because we couldn't vote for Bernie.
Because the options were evil vs lesser evil.
