I’ll wait.

Obviously there are more than a few jerks on the right. But as a whole, we take law and order much more seriously than the left, and want a smaller federal government. Those are actual differences between the two sides
Thats a funny post Jim, thanks I needed a good laugh, but no need to wait, I made my point and you as you always do come up with some crazy whataboutism false equivalency. There are those on this forum who will jump at the chance to get into your usual circular debate, I've got better things to amuse myself with. Carry on.

I questioned your point with a question so obvious a child would ask. And as usual, you dodged answering and lobbed some baseless insults, a sure sign that you have no response, but are too small to say so.

Bringing up politically motivated riots from the left that were infinitely more destructive and deadly, is whatabout-ism. I love it. So you can never, ever be guilty of hypocrisy. It's all whatabout-ism. Very convenient. You have given yourself a permanent get-out-of-jail free card.

Why do you support an emerging autocratic movement willing to violently attack the Capitol to overthrow a legitimate election?

You first. Use footnotes.

You really are obtuse Jim. Not one democrat supports violence and go search how many of those breaking the law were charged, it’s a big number. This country endorses the right to peacefully protest, well unless your on the way to a photo op to hold a bible upside down to prove your stupid. You say you don’t support a president who tried to illegally overturn the election, yet out of the other side of your mouth, you admit you would vote for Trump against any democrat running. You are so transparent it actually amusing to watch you spin away on this forum.

the left justified those riots, ignored them, focused on the fact that they were mostly peaceful. same with january 6th. the rioters murdered exactly zero people
in january 6th, not a one. it true for the summer riots.

which republicans support violence?

you’re right. i hate trump
and kid never, ever vote for him in a primary. but i’d vote for him in a general, as all of you will vote for whoever democrats nominate

our checks and balances, and the constitution, have shown that they are way more powerful than trump. he can’t do anything the constitution says he can’t do.

if his obnoxiousness is the price i’m asked to pay for all
the ways that life was better 2 years ago, that’s a price I’ll happily pay.

OMG boy that’s such an easy question, how about the guy you would vote for if he runs again, this time around in his rallies he might not have the funds to pay someones legal fees for knocking the crap out of a protester.
