I say “traditional” because that allows for simpler categorization of my beliefs, but not because tradition itself makes them valuable

And what are these “traditional” values that the pope and MAGA have left behind?

They don’t exist. Even atheist conservatives made arguments entirely rooted in religious morality and rules. They may try to put together post-hoc arguments but when it comes down to it they’re still arguing for a conservative status quo which is fundamentally based on religion

Trump is literally the leader of the Republican Party. This is exactly what you people voted for and we literally told you this beforehandz

Each side leave a combination of both, but I support (unpopular) values like preserving life in the womb, supporting marriage between a man and woman only, discouraging divorce and casual sex, implementing harsh punishments for sexual assault and pedophiles, retaining a small government, providing equal (not equitable) access to jobs, keeping a strong border while facilitating legal immigration, allowing for free speech, supporting gun rights, removing healthcare monopolies, etc…

Ik it’s hard for you to come to terms with the fact rn Trump is the Republican Party but it’s factually the case, and he has been for the past 11 years. Trump isn’t some outsider you can pretend doesn’t represent the party

No it’s not dummy lol, I’m a Republican and did not vote because I didn’t like his approach to the election, he also has not done anything that is pro-conservative this term

Just disregard the whole thing about me saying there’s a split in the Republican Party, that’s fine.

What split? Tell me where the Republican Party has meaningfully and materially split with Trump

Point me towards where the pope has vocally been HATEFUL towards Trump please. While you’re at it, please show me where it says the pope is disallowed from inserting himself into politics

My fav genre is when you ask them one clarifying question and they just sputter out something because introspection is anathema to conservatives

There is absolutely 100% a split over the way he is bending knee to Israel and attacking Iran for Israel’s gain. 95% of republicans do not want this or support this. The fact that you don’t know/see that is honestly more telling about yourself. You live in an echo chamber and don’t actually communicate with anyone who disagrees with you in any way, you just generalize them all together.

Quit your whining abt “echo chambers” that’s not the conversation we are having. Grow up for Christ sake Also is the Republican Party splitting from Trump? No. He still has the full backing of the party. The only republican who has actually rebelled against him is MTG. And how have people materially split from Trump? Nobody is running as an “anti Trump” republican, nor are the voter base asking for it. Going “oh well republicans don’t want this” rings hallow when the change isn’t there

Anonymous OP 4w

He does not have the backing of the voters. Most everyone is on MTG and Thomas Massey’s side of the Republican Party, we just can’t do anything about it right now because he has all his yes men in office and until the next elections we are stuck between a rock and a hard place because the representatives aren’t actually representing the American people they are representing Donald Trump.

I only mention echo chambers because your lack of common, easily accessible information about the Republican Party is lacking. So it’s obvious you haven’t had many conversations on the subject where you listened to anything anyone was saying because that’s a pretty large point right now over the past 2 months or so.

Ok, if he doesn’t have the backing of the voters, point to me towards some republicans running in the midterms who are explicitly and openly against Trump and this war

You know it’s damn near impossible to run without backing and funding from lobbying organizations right? And sadly all the big lobbying organizations are on Trumps side. This is extremely basic stuff that you are just paying absolutely 0 mind to.

The elites, aka the ones with the money to fund people running for office, are on trumps side. Not me, not the republicans at my school, not the republicans in my hometown, just the elites. Because they have an incentive (and the power) to give money to people who are going to back Trump.

Y’all are all having to talk in circles because y’all refuse to understand my point that the average Republican American does not support what Trump is doing. You know that’s the argument I’m making and you have no rebuttal to it because there’s nothing to argue about so you keep trying to change the talking point so you can make yourself right. My point was never do defend Trump in any way, it was to try to make y’all realize that we, average Americans, don’t stand for what he’s doing.

• In 2016, Donald Trump received approximately 56.7 million votes from Republicans, winning about 90% of the party. • In 2020, his support among Republicans grew to 70.5 million votes, which was 95% of the party's voters. • In 2024, he received an estimated 71.1 million votes from Republicans, accounting for 92% of the party. • While his percentage of the party dipped slightly in the most recent election, his total number of Republican votes reached its highest point yet.

Why did you all vote for him three fucking times then?

Why do more than 90% of Republicans vote for him then? Stop trying to launder this and pretend that you people aren’t nazis and didn’t vote for fascism. You did, and everyone knows you did. Repent instead of trying to erase the history of your sins.

Because he’s not doing the shit he said he was going to do when he was running you fucking moron. I already told you I didn’t vote for him this last election if you can fucking read because apparently none of y’all can. You sound like you would literally rather watch the world burn than find common ground with a republican which is what I was trying to do but y’all are so fucking self righteous that you refuse to find common ground. Grow up.

He is doing exactly what everyone knew he would do. What common ground is there? Republicans are near universally fascists. They’ve been cheering on all the terrible things he’s done (even this war to some degree), but finally I guess AI Trump-Jesus is too far, even though they’ve been making literal golden idols of him for years). You people have morals which are fundamentally incompatible with a free, democratic society, and support policies that aren’t just bad or lacking evidence in

support, but are literally counterproductive to your own goals. As an example, look at Republicans repeatedly being extremely fiscally irresponsible, growing the debt, and causing economic crises

Anonymous #10 4w

What common ground? Idk maybe the fact that we all live in the same country and probably want the best for it. we just have different views of how to go about it. He is not for my view of it or yours but you would still refuse to find common ground with me because I disagree with you about how to go about it. The fascist argument is old outplayed and wrong evident by the fact that republicans are turning on him.
