Besides symbolic nonsense how is the country different when Repubs or Dems are elected?
Generally speaking, when the president is a republican other countries tend to respect and rightly fear our military. When a dumbocrat is in charge we are pretty much a laughing stock. You think Putin would be so arrogant in his actions if Reagan or Bush were still president? I think not.
A republican would never have our borders wide open and refuse to deport those who have absolutely no right to be here while at the same time showing more respect for those criminals than he/she would to our country's heroes who served this nation honorably in the military. Dumbocrats tend to be all for that though.
A republican would not be making friends with our enemies like Iran and Cuba while turning his back on our longtime ally, Israel. So despicable that Obama did that.
A republican would never try to censor the media or have the nerve to tell them what they can or can't report on or print. A republican would never try to take away our second amendment right to bear arms. A rebublican would never have such disdain for Christianity (the religion this country was founded on) in favor of Islam. Or have the audacity to blame the Crusades for what Islamic terrorists are doing today. A republican would never be trying to turn this country into a socialistic state.
There's many more differences but I think you get the idea.
