StnCld316 Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 I have always voted Conservative since I was old enough to Vote in Canada. The Liberal Party in Canada is Corrupt and can't be trusted. 1
BBsq69 Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Doesn't politics have 2 dimensions left to right as personified by Democrat and Repulican in the US although in Europe we would probably say centre and right or right and righter, and the other liberal to conservative. Isn't it possible to be a conservative Democrat and a liberal Republican? ... I know it is. However I accept there is a strong correlation between the 2 sets of beliefs. 1

ipiratemedia Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I'm amazed at the haltered displayed on this thread, insulting my President and those few who don't agree with his views. 99% of TV News are liberals folks. It's frustrating to constantly hear how horrible Mr.Trump and his policies are when you support most of them, but it's even more frustrating when people question whether or not you know his ideas and policies. When people hear that I am a Trump supporter, they automatically begin to question if I know and understand his ideas. So here are things that I wish people understood about Trump and the majority of his supporters. The majority of us are not supporting Trump because we're ignorant. We understand him and his policies very well. Just because we believe something that you don't does not make either of us wrong. No matter how many times you try to convince us that you are right, we're not going to change our views, so please stop trying to sway our opinions. He's a businessman, and he will run this country like a business. After many failed approaches to get us out of debt, maybe a successful businessman as the president isn't a bad idea. When non-Trump supporters say that Trump isn't a politician, we laugh at you. What makes a person a politician? Nothing! That's right, if you want to be a politician, you can be. He may not know everything, but try to name one candidate who does. He will hire the right people for the right jobs. The wall. Many of you think that the wall Trump wants to build seems irrational, but we don't. The United States provides endless opportunity for anyone that comes here LEGALLY. We're not denying people entry to our amazing country, we're just asking that they come here the right way, like many of our relatives did in the past. And on to the next point ... He's not racist, and neither are we. We just want people to come here legally. It's not right that our hard work is paying for illegal immigrants' children to go to school and that our tax dollars are going to pay for people who did not pay into the system. We're looking to protect ourselves and our hard earned dollars. He's all for guns. No matter what happens, the criminals and the bad-guys are going to get their hands on guns whether they are legal or illegal. If guns were legal, people would be less likely to pull out a gun in a public place because of the fear that other people might have guns too. We're proud to be Republicans. We are not ashamed no matter how many times you may try to belittle us. We worked hard for our money, and we believe we should have a say where it goes. We're not saying we want to see children starving on the streets, but we don't want to see our money go to things we don't believe in. So stop talking to us and about us like we're monsters. What we see as speaking his mind, you see as rude. You cannot validly argue that Trump does not speak his mind. He says what most Republicans are thinking. He is the only presidential candidate that actually speaks his mind without holding back, and we appreciate his bluntness. Trump supporters are not violent. Several mini studies have now proven that Bernie's supporters are the most likely of all supporters to inflict violence on others. Trump's supporters aren't looking for a fight, like Sanders' supporters. We're just proud to be part of the movement that will Make America Great Again, and like to show our support. It's annoying to receive dirty looks from people when they hear that I'm a Trump supporter. We're entitled to our opinions as much as you're entitled to yours. Trump supporters don't going around saying other people are ignorant or stupid for believing other things, we just try to express our views. We are the only ones being called ignorant. Get over it! We live in America, and everyone believes different things, so leave us be! We're not asking you to love Donald Trump, but we are asking for the same level of respect that we're giving you. He has many female and minority supporters, so clearly we don't all see him as sexist and racist. Peace iPirate . 3
Foamy T. Squirrel Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 I'm a Libertarian. I don't really matter in these discussions. I should be able to, but I'm horribly in debt thanks to financial Liberals like our past many Presidents since Reagan, and a Congress that operates to enrich themselves. Add to that a populace that has learned to ignore the Constitution as written and sadly learned they can vote themselves presents; I can see the democratic-model in the world becoming dust through its political corruption and financial bankruptcy. http://usdebtclock.org/
