My preference would be a good person who implements policies I like. That wasn't a choice in 2016. The choice was between 2 morally bankrupt reptiles. One would do things I like, one would do things I hate. It wasn't a pleasant choice, but it was an easy choice.
I didn't elect him to date my mother or to be a role model. I elected him to help the economy, to kill terrorists, and to nominate judges who understand that they aren't supposed to advocate for causes they believe in, but rather abide by the constitution even when they don't like that outcome. |

I am talking about the congressman from Georgia. You say you don't want ocasio writing law , but you probably are fine with Spencer. And your evaluation of how conservative judges work is novel, but b.s. That isn't how it goes.

"I am talking about the congressman from Georgia"
I don't know who you mean. SO whoever you are referring to, he's not the face of the GOP.
"You say you don't want ocasio writing law "
Correct.
"but you probably are fine with Spencer."
I am sorry, I don't know who you mean.
"And your evaluation of how conservative judges work is novel, but b.s. "
Not in my opinion.
"That isn't how it goes"
You say so. Again, you made an accusation, but chose not to provide any examples. If your goal is to show me that my side isn't perfect, let me save you the trouble...there are all kinds of liars, jerks, hypocrites, crooks, weirdos on my side. But on policy, I obviously believe it's far superior to liberalism, and in terms of economics, I think you have to be absolutely clueless to embrace liberalism. |

I understand you feel that way. These discussions with you repeatedly reinforce to me that a large number of people who are voting the way you do do it based and misinformation and lies just like the kind you spew on here.

Jason Spencer is (was) a member of the Georgia House of Representatives
Ocasio Cortez is running for the US House of Representatives for NY's 14 Congressional District
you guys are arguing Apples and Oranges.
1 is making federal law and the other is making State law |
"If you're arguing with an idiot, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."

Yeah you are right about Spencer. Also true that one is a candidate, one was an elected official. I always like to comment on your analogies, so I would say we are arguing lemons to limes 👹
