    Eh…it was what it was. End of the day these politicians are all in it for themselves. You surly disagree. But the conservative push is by far the best for our kids and grandkids. But no matter who is in charge. I will do what I need to do for our family and community.

    Sure but I haven’t seen any conservative push, just MAGA which is John Birch in character.

    Oddly, Democrats are more likely to bear that mantle these days.

    “The John Birch Society (JBS) is an American right-wing political advocacy group. Founded in 1958, it is anti-communist, supports social conservatism, and is associated with ultraconservative, radical right, far-right, right-wing populist, and right-wing libertarian ideas.”

    Doesn’t look like the Democrats to me.

    I have seen a big conservative push. Most I agree with. Which I am sure you disagree with. Hence the hysteria.

    Un unh. National debt, increasing pollution, healthcare headed up by a antivax crackpot, culture wars as a priority in our military, unqualified sycophants in key positions - let’s revisit this post end of the year and see if Dear Leader has as a concern what type of country we leave our children.

    Protection of Life. Immigration. Etc etc…

    Is it all perfect. Surly not. We are living in a fallen world. But it is absolutely better than letting everyone in/dei/take a shot (ironically brought to market by Trump) or lose your job even though we are ignoring basic science and medicine.

    Things are on the up swing. I personally am watching from afar as I have been for years. 2020 was wild. Telling us we cannot take care of our patients crossed a line. But other than that. I sit back and make my community better.

    I suggest you do the same!

    Protection of life, believing in liberty and justice for all, and immigration are liberal ideals. Save the fetus but starve the child, crushing the American dream, and making it legal to discriminate based on sex, race, religion, and sexual orientation aren’t conservative, it’s Jim Crow era MAGA. Also you may not have noticed but the prices of everything are going up, we’re alienating our closest allies, and planning to pull a Putin and invade at least three sovereign countries. Nothing conservative about that.

    Don’t leftoids argue that the parties flipped ideologically just before the civil rights era ?

    Yes the Dixiecrats flipped to the Republican Party but now flipped to MAGA, the reincarnation of the JBS. The Republican Party exists in name only.

    So you’re saying save the fetus but starve the child, crushing the American dream, and making it legal to discriminate based on sex, race, religion, and sexual orientation ARE conservative values? Hmmmm. Interesting, but okay if you say so.

    Absolutely not. That is your ignorant view. And completely void of reality.

    Medicine Prices going up already...from the WSJ.

    Price Increases in New Trump Era - WSJ

    The list price of psoriasis treatment Otezla increased to about $5,325 a month, after a 7% increase by maker Amgen AMGN 0.55%increase; green up pointing triangle. Roche Holding ROG -0.59%decrease; red down pointing triangle raised the price of its hemophilia treatment Hemlibra by 8%, with the drug costing about $600,000 a year for the average patient. Makers increased the prices of popular diabetes and weight-loss drugs by 3% or less.

    Some smaller companies, meantime, raised prices on drugs for pain, cancer and other conditions by double-digit percentages.

    The impact for patients will depend on their health plans. It is the plan that usually pays most of the cost of a prescription, often after securing a discount off the list price. Insured patients could pay a larger deductible, monthly copay or other out-pocket cost because the list price of a prescription went up.

    Actually my view is crystal clear. I don’t blame you because it takes time for some people to come to terms with what they’re supporting. Your inelegant responses show you’re transitioning from the denial stage toward anger. Take a breath.
