Here's an example of tribal infighting:
A better example is the Republican party fracturing apart, rebranding itself as the Trumpers, and shrinking in size to weed out the non-compliant. The Trumper party is growing smaller, and smaller, as it seeks to the holy grail of "perfection."
Republicans are now more united than ever thanks to the coordinated witch hunt against a conservative justice.

Yep, and getting tighter. Also, have you noticed how close and more unhinged the 'protestors' have been getting to the congresspeople? Add to it, the doxxing of personal information... addresses, phone info, etc.? The psychological maneuvering of the left, is incredible. It's as though they are attempting to create 'martyr's'. It's just a matter of time...

I hate to break the news to you but the Republican party as a whole is not any better than the Democratic party. Both play their political games... both have sever shortcomings... and sadly, the US is become more and more divided.
If you are as intelligent as you feel that you are (assuming you are not just trolling) you will realize this is correct and work to repair the damage done by the two parties (and the media - who skew things from both sides). And finally our current president is not helping this specific issue. You may love his conservative agenda but he has been, and continues to be, very divisive ...in the long run that is not a plus for the country you love.
Actually I agree with everything you say. The difference is the rule of law, with the Democrats seemingly moving away from that to mob rule.
again, it still depends on your perspective... it is not any truer that the Democrats are moving away from the rule of law towards mob rule than it is to say that the Republicans are.
Your comment does no more to help the situation than someone who says you should move to some 'red' area and build a wall around yourself.
People have to realize that for this to work there needs to compromise. You can not have everything your way in life. There are trade offs everywhere. Democracy is supposed to be about that but we have moved far far away from it.
And, yes, it's sad.

Sorry, not buying it. Dems have shown a propensity to disregard fundamental rights of the accused, due process, and rule of law in a way that I never expected to see from that party. I am definitely right of center, so I am closer to R than D, but that doesn't stop me from seeing faults in the others side of the aisle. It's just that the toxic mix of identity politics, mob. rule populism, and shenanigans like the Kavanaugh affair have made it unlikely for me to sympathize with that party for a long time. I used to really admire Cory Booker when he was mayor of Newark and out shoveling snow with the people. I lost all respect for him in this. Diane Feinstein used Ford in a way that is disgusting. Their only interest was to keep Trump from successfully getting ANYBODY confirmed. They don't really give a sh!t about 35 year old allegations, otherwise Bill Clinton would be a pariah. For those of you with any shred of integrity, look at the Juanita Broaddrick affair and corroborating evidence. Compare that the the allegations against Kavanaugh - it's not even close. You really think that was Clinton's one slip up? Look at what his machine led by Carville and Hilldawg did to his accusers. So if we're going to hold people accountable for past transgressions, let's do it for everybody, not just those with the 'wrong' politics.

What is sad was last week was all about law or mob rule. If you wish to characterize it differently go ahead. Your view then would do no more to help the situation than mine.

False. By any objective and measurable action the dems, or at least extremely vocal and high profile segments of dems have totally abandoned all traditional modes of civilized behavior.
Each side should fight for their beliefs but working within civilized boundaries. The dems I know growing up we’re not like this. Not even close. Jimmy carter. Tip O’Neal Mondale etc. these were normal people behaving like normal civilized people.
Violence, physical threats, riots. That’s not ok and conservatives didn’t do much or any other this in the eight years of Obama. The dem lunacy is unprecedented.
Just look at the Georgetown prof who just got put on leave. So far over the top and beyond the realm of rational behavior.

Bro, you have a man who wears makeup and gestures flamboyantly (and who recently claimed to have fallen in love with North Korea’s dictator) calling you a “forgotten man victim” That doesn’t exactly scream winner to me.

How can anyone respond to your post? I suppose: get a grip on your delusion and anger.

I agree with you. I'm a squishy moderate with little political activity. As a woman, I find Trump appalling personally. I did not vote for him (or anybody), and in 2016 could not conceive of ever doing so. But in 2020, I'll be pulling the lever for him. Some conservative commentator said that he's a never Trumper, but would crawl over broken glass to vote for him next time after the behavior of a lot of the Democratic Senate in the Kavanaugh affair. I'm right there with him. I can't feel comfortable putting them in power. I have too many good men in my life that I love to risk allowing a party to rule who feels it's fine to ruin a man's life on the basis of a single non-corroborated allegation. Statements like "we should believe all women" are intellectually lazy, and incompatible with the rule of law.
The Merrick Garland thing was dirty pool, but that was simply sleazy politics. No one set out to ruin his life, and a growing (and particularly vocal) faction on the left seem to think it's OK to do to Kavanaugh. I can only conclude they either:
- believe Ford based on no evidence, in which case they are dangerous, or
- don't necessarily believe her but think it's fine to serve the greater good, in which case they are evil.

Ok. Now we find something you're not completely FOS about.
Go back to whatever handle you were posting under previously. Your supposed feminine side is pretty unbecoming.

Hmmm.... Do I actually believe there's a woman who will support Trump on LR? Could be.... Among the women friends I have that I can actually talk politics with, there are a surprising number of Trump supporters.
I also did not vote for anyone in 2016. If the Dems put forth Cory Booker or his ilk, I would strongly consider a vote for Trump. It depends on whether the Libertarian party nominates another feckless doofus like Gary Johnson. I can't envision voting for a Democrat given the current climate, but two years is an eternity these days and maybe they will come to their senses or the DNC would totally manipulate the process this time.
I also agree that Merrick Garland was a qualified jurist who should have been confirmed, but the Kavanaugh thing was a completely disproportionate response. Some say the Merrick Garland thing goes back to Robert Bork and/or the Biden rule, but I'm not sure that Obama could have gotten a died in the wool originalist confirmed in his last year. There was just that much enmity between the WH and Senate.

Great summary. A lot of the opposition were open that it did not matter if Kavanaugh were innocent; they wanted to make an example of him anyway because of the narrative.
