Starting from scratch GOD made man in HIS own image. Starting with a viable healthy GOP chump transformed it into what you see! AMAZING?

Usta like FREE TRADE
Got tariffs up the kazoo and are choking on them as they drown in them

Usta like balanced budget and defecit reduction
Got exploding budgets and deficit increases

Usta insist they were Family oriented and had moral values
Got a philandering accused rapist who lies 24/7 whom they defend not abhor embrace not reject

Usta support the rule of law
Got a lawless fake AG who is in the pocket of the law-hating rule despising protection destroying steadfast jacka**

There is nothing left of the former GOP. Nothing.
An improvement?

I dunno. I liked the old GOP way better. What there is now is what's left at the bottom of the barrel spoiled by the rotten apple.

    Usta like FREE TRADE----

    We never had Free Trade...we had tariffs on USA product but not on imports....that is not Free Trade. Both sides were/all globalists. 


    Usta like balanced budget and defecit reduction

    I have not seen one President reduce the debt ever....they all talk a good game and but spend spend spend both parties.  Including Trump.


    Usta insist they were Family oriented and had moral values

    He is supporting values policies and judges.  Again the rest talk but did not do much of anything. 

    Usta support the rule of law

    Yet for 30+yrs no border security as claimed to be supported by both parties until recently. We still support law....and we think it should apply to all equally not one law for rich/connected and one for regular folks.

    The United States has free trade agreements in force with 20 countries. These are:

    Australia
    Bahrain
    Canada
    Chile
    Colombia
    Costa Rica
    Dominican Republic
    El Salvador
    Guatemala
    Honduras
    Israel
    Jordan
    Korea
    Mexico
    Morocco
    Nicaragua
    Oman
    Panama
    Peru
    Singapore

    Democrat Bill Clinton was president the last time the federal budget was balanced, and Republicans controlled Congress.

    Of course, everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts. This post was edited by tom jackson at August 31, 2019 2:13 AM MDT

    I think it was Dem Tip O'Neil who said that wasn't it tom? About opinion vs facts? I just luv that sentence. Back in day Dems and Republicans argued their differences during the work day and then went out at night and socialized. Or so I've read. I think Reagan and O'Neil were good pals. Those were the days. This post was edited by RosieG at August 31, 2019 6:58 PM MDT

    He may have said several have said different variants.  But the earilest example I can find os Bernard Baruch, who said "Every man has a right to his own opinion, but no man has a right to be wrong in his facts." in the January 6, 1950 issue of the Deming(New Mexico)

    I don't know who said it first, but I've seen it used various times in recent years.

    It may have used bigly and oftenly for decades tom but it only reached my conscience and been repeated a bazillion times since the advent of and rise in power of folks who believe that alternate realities are just as good as the real thing. Which brings me to another question. Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday! :)

    Debt went up every year under Clinton. That is a fact. You can verify it on https://treasurydirect.gov/NP/debt/current

    Yes we have agreements and yes they call them free trade agreements.  But having the title of free trade....does not make it truth. If that were the case, our allies would not be protesting everyone removing their tariffs and gov subsidies.

    The debt increased every year under Clinton so that balanced budget failed was not balanced. 

    Does not matter if you made a balanced budget of you did not stick to it. Try filing taxes on your proposed budget that you did not follow...and see how the IRS feels about it.

    As I said in my answer....debt increased every year.  This post was edited by my2cents at August 31, 2019 10:52 PM MDT

    Well, all of this is just to make sure people realize how you formulate the opinions and beliefs you post---with your help, I have at least accomplished my service to the truth.
