I think we need a coalition of Republicans and disaffected Democrats, people from around the center to take this country back from dangerous extremists. Reasonable people who want this country's children to be educated without the political propaganda that infects today's public and private schools.

Exactly what about it is propaganda? Be specific.

The whole billionaire funded "transgender" activist movement is a dangerous load of late capitalist bunk. There's no such thing as "gender," and it is not assigned at birth. There's only biological sex which is determined during the moment of conception. People cannot change their biological sex no matter how many drugs they take or how many body parts they hack off. There's no such thing as a boy in a girl's body or vice versa. Children should never be put on puberty blockers. Teenage girls should not be encouraged to have double mastectomies, take cross sex hormones, or have phalloplasties. Men do not have babies. I could go on and on all afternoon about this, but life is too short to spend any more time answering your question

God help your children if any of them have identity issues. You'll drive them to suicide. So caring.

Don't make me laugh. I'm not falling for that tired, old suicide trope. That's a well known, cheap trick used to intimidate parents into shutting up and falling in line with the big trans program pushed by the money grubbing, autogynephile billionaires and their useful idiot activists. And if "because. suicide" is the best argument you can come up with, you might as well leave this substack now because no one here believes it.

If a child claims they're"transgender," they have serious psychological problems, including autism, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. Those problems need intensive psychotherapy, the one effective treatment that your gender bending fellow travelers forbid them to have. Encouraging anyone one who's mentally ill to believe they can become the opposite sex is the perfect recipe for an eventual suicide.

And as for"caring." Your billionaire autogynephile overlords, ain't in this to help anyone but themselves. They're working their well padded asses off to create a brave new world where they can prance about in designer maternity dresses and give birth to babies gestated inside their high tech, transplanted wombs. And just where did those wombs come from? Why it was just some medical waste, recycled from a sixteen year old girl who claimed she was a he and got a hysterectomy a few weeks after her breasts were chopped off.

No. of course not. Caring about a teenage girl who was raped by a "transgender" biological male who invaded the girl's bathroom would induce way too much cognitive dissonance.

Nancy2001. The problem is the primary system - which is true for both the left and right. Because most moderates do not bother voting on primaries, moderate Dems are at risk to challenges from the progressives (who are organized and funded by people like Soros) and the moderates repubs by far right.

Truth is the republicans need to make room in the party for moderate Dems to switch affiliation - by agreeing to support the moderate Dems against challenges in Republican primary if they do switch.

Right now, the moderate Dems have huge power but are afraid to use it. All it would take to get Pelosi attention is for a handful to switch parties , then the progressives are dead in the water.

The straight Republican ticket accomplishes that purpose just fine.

Nancy Robertson's avatar

Yes, you're absolutely right. But I think it might be an easier sell to get disaffected Democrats to switch to a third party. And the mere presence of a credible third party that appealed to moderates of both parties could force the Democrats to abandon their zealous and out of control wokeness.

Making it extremely difficult for independents to get a footing is one area that the DNC and GOP completely agree on. They work together to keep them off ballots and out of debates, lest anyone disrupt their beloved two-party system.

The actor Matthew McConaughey is considering running for governor of Texas. He's neither a Democrat nor Republican and even though he hasn't yet officially entered the race, 46% of the electorate already said they'd vote for him. He's relatively young, handsome, and well known. And, most importantly he knows how to connect with the values and concerns of everyday people.

Just what a politician would say. RAH has is right. He is a democrat, but maybe moderate. Hopefully, not woke. But let's face it, he hasn't lived in the real world in a long time, like the lifelong politicians. Not sure he is the answer.

Perhaps a Nikki Haley/Tulsi Gabbard ticket? I'd prefer DeSantis/Gabbard, but would live with Haley/Gabbard.

I can't POSSIBLY agree more. The PROBLEM is partisanship. Hard to get people to change, no matter WHAT it is. VERY hard. Me? Trying to cut back on smokes. Easier to switch parties than do that. That's just me.

Yesterday, I listened to a youtube podcast by the British actor Laurence Fox, who is very well known in Britain. He's now starting an anti-PC third party, Reclaim, as an alternative to the Conservative party and the woke Labour party. He's a breath of fresh air, and even though I disagree with one or two of his positions, I'd vote for his party in a heartbeat.
