I suppose republicans deciding party supersedes principles and endorsing a sexual predator while electing one to the presidential office is commendable.You should also consider paying more attention to the news. Like how conservatives couldn't get a healthcare bill passed because they couldn't agree on just how much they wanted to screw people over.
Heck with the politicians/pundits, I'm talking real people here.
In my experience, liberals range a spectrum from miserable angry a*hole, overbearing elitist prick, self interested narcissist, lazy union bum.
Conservatives, otoh, are full of pretty much everything you'd expect. Gun nuts? Met 'em. Bigots? Oh, big time. And they've got their narccisist's and pricks and such..
But the thing if it is, I've NEVER met a "true lefty" liberal that would go out of their way for anyone, ever. Some of my best friends were liberals, voted Democrat, and if a friend asked for a 2 hour ride to New York, they'd say "I'm not gonna do that."
Nah, too much effort. They're the same types who call it quits on a marriage because, ohmygod my wife wants me to sleep with her instead of doing what "I" want to do and play video games! (Yeah, this happened. And no, he wasn't some pasty faced nerd, he was a good looking guy with a good job and a beautiful woman.. who placed priority on his free time over his wife.)
For all the bad on both ends, it turns out the people who would do the most for others, all happen to be conservative. The "shirt off my back" types. Never met a liberal I can say that about.
If you want to chalk that up to me not meeting the right liberals, that's fine, but it is what it is.
