There are only three things the Republicans care about:

- Money (for the rich)

- Power

- Courts

That's it. It's not all they'll spend energy on, but all the rest is for the above. There are these annoying rules that give masses "votes" and so they have to run around saying "Democrats are trying to let black people control your children, vote for us" and spend billions on media to keep people brainwashed to vote for Republicans because of huge fear and hatred for Democrats, day in and day out.

Why do they want money, power and courts? Because they want the country to be something they will never say publicly, a plutocracy, a place where their wealthy masters can have everything and do everything they like. The masses have to be kept down, or they will put limits on the wealthy. It's that simple. The not-secret 'secret' of Republican politics.

Test the theory. Look at 100 things the Republicans have done in the last 50 years. See if any do not fit either "get money", "get power", or "get courts". Under, "get power" includes any sort of 'pandering' and propaganda they do. Under "get power" includes things like "deregulation", the government telling the powerful what they can't do.

All the things they say that attract voters are fluff, "retail politics", propaganda designed to get people to hate Democrats and vote for Republicans. Patriotism, freedom, 'religious freedom', morals, war, you name it, all of is material of the con man (a general title, not a person).

It might seem off to have one of the two major parties in the country all about fighting for a goal it will never admit. We're used to the idea of announced goals. Founding fathers and independence from England, Churchill and defeating Hitler, Hitler and a thousand year Reich killing Jewish people. But that's what we have, a party with a goal they won't say,, plutocracy, and much of the country manipulated to fight for them to get those things.

They get their poor deplorable base to vote for their plutocratic agenda because that base thinks they are going to be part of it due to their skin color or something. They don’t realize that they and their racism are being used and flushed away like used toilet paper once they are done being used. No one really cares about their color.
 
The Dems don't want power or the courts.
They only want what's best for the country.

The GOP things the best anti=poverty program is a sustainaable job .
The Dems thing the best anti-poverty program is redistribution.
I'd say the GOP program is the better one.

Can you link to the GOP's proposal on this policy?

I'm glad you call it a "theory" because that's all it really is - and a theory born, very likely, from a common ailment on the left - projection.

That said...

Strip away the labels "Republicans" and "Democrats" and substitute instead POLITICIANS and your theory might just hold water - because if you're trying to get us to swallow that Democrats don't care about Money, Power, and Courts as much as you believe Republicans do - you're seriously misguided.

Playing devils advocate, but aren't money, power and control of the courts the primary focus of the left as well? Perhaps the distinction only being what those of us towards the left would do with the money, the power and control of the courts?

Brilliant synopsis - you left out the part where in order to maintain their grip on power- their M.O. is to blather about wedge issues, such as prayer in schools, trans folk in restrooms, black people in Chicago. Culture war/dog whistling is their M.O. When's the last time you heard any republican talk about "small government"? They're pretty ****ing evil.
 
if you're a white conservative in the South think about how much things have changed since you were a kid in the 50s/60s.

sports
civil rights
women
entertainment
business
music


of course they're pissed. of course they're fighting back the only ways they can.
 
Does the Republican Party even have a platform yet?
It's not the whole party, but the Virginia gubernatorial race has been largely about education.

Law enforcement is another big issue. Democrats are still the party of defund-the-police.

I know they didn't have one for the 2020 convention.
They had a platform but did not have a new one. They chose to continue the 2016 platform, which makes sense because the 2016 version worked out well for them.

You left out one item:

Privatization supported with tax dollars aka Koch style Fascism

Defunding is not a Democrat platform policy.

The 2016 platform bombed in 2020 though didn’t it.

Reposting just in case someone, ANYONE missed it.

No truer words on this subject were ever spoken.

Thanks again.
 
Defunding is not a Democrat platform policy.
It gives Republicans teeth when law enforcement is one of their planks.

The 2016 platform bombed in 2020 though didn’t it.
Democrats won a close, COVID-influenced election, amid accusations of cheating. The platform did not do badly.

Republicans have abandoned the law. They support a second term from a man who had many members of his adminstration committing crimes and going to jail throughout his only term. They support a man who is recorded, in a phone call to the Georgia SoS, attempting election fraud. Please stop.
 
Republicans have abandoned the law.
Ridiculous hyperbole - and one utterly stupid comment. Good grief - stop it already and maybe take a good hard look at the individual for whom YOU voted.

And the Democrats? Which party is always running down the country, it's history, it's founding fathers, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights. The democrats in power want to change all the fundamentals that this country has been built upon.
I often post the 45 goals of the communist party for taking over America. I don't know if you have read it but it's hard to read and not recognize so much of what the democrats have done that is contained within. The democrats exaggerate racial issues and victimization for political gain. That's just not good for a country. You don't have to tear it down to make changes if the changes are positive and beneficial to the nation as a whole.

Boy what a loaded statement. The only people constantly pandering racism in this country are the democrats. 90% of the claimed racism is BS, but it plays well for controlling black/brown and LBGTQ voters, whom without the democrats could never win an election. Then after the election the democrats always fail to deliver and blame it on republicans. The democrats sure seem to care about the "deplorables" color. White systemic racism and and victimization is about all democrats talk about. Food is racist, energy is racist, facts are racist, everything is racist to the left.

You may get a different perspective.
 

Integrityrespec is so full of bullshit and misinformation = typical right wing nut who wants to steal our right to vote and install fascism.​


Notice........ the conservative right wing ALEC element have adopted the Reagan/Bush strategy using the words communism and marxist to distract voters from the real issues of this country which is of course one large load of crap.

MEANWHILE the right wing party of ALEC is draining our wallets through reckless funding of the war machine, supporting high gasoline prices, leveraged buyouts, moving american dollars off shore, moving
USA jobs off shore, home loan scams, bailing out banks and Wall Street DECLARING:

--- War On Good Wages aka Right To Work Legislation
--- War against AFFORDABLE Medical Insurance and Single Payer
--- War On Medicare
--- War On Medicaid
--- War on public education and Higher Education
--- War On Social Security Insurance
--- War on the economy through Supply Side Wreckanomics
--- War against women
--- War on the VA and Veterans Benefits
--- War on Voters Rights = VOTER SUPPRESSION
--- War on strict gun regulations
--- War On National Monuments/Parks
--- War on the press
--- War on the USA Postal Service
--- War On Environmental Cleanliness
--- War On USA Jobs through Free Trade Agreements and Leveraged Buyout Scams
--- War for Oil Control Worldwide
--- War on truth about global warming/climate change
http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2010/03/30/174616/koch-denial-machine/

Remember….. Conservative men and women vote against women!

Women are the largest voting block in the USA. Women could own the USA government if they would vote. Women's Rights and Women's Right to choose need women at the forefront everyday.

Which is why the USA cannot afford to allow a minority party to take control of the USA majority of voters.

Haha. You elected Donald Trump and a bunch or Republicans to power. What is the only real thing they did? Did they save the jobs at the carrier plant in Indiana? Did he build that wall on Mexico?

No. All he did was cut taxes to the wealthy. Doesn’t that tell you something? What they are telling you and what they want when they are in power are very different things. You and your misunderstandings and fears are just being used to advance a different agenda than you think. The Republican Party is not being up front with you. They’re just telling you things you want to hear to get to power and do something different.

Preach it. They need to hear it 100 times more to get it.
