    Sorry, but that's your opinion and you know we all have them. Personally I don't believe that at all. I am a conservative so I mostly support Republican policy, but I don't see the Democrats as evil (just misguided).

    That would explain why she isn't doing so much of her word-salad, and I actually wondered why she seemed to be able to speak better, she needed to be fed the lines, and it wouldn't surprise me at all that she had the questions, with answers to give well before the debate. I just don't see her as being a good speaker, not just unlikable but not as smart as I would think a lawyer would have to be :rolleyes:

    Let's assume I was unclear and approach this from a different angle. It's certainly not absurd to me that the Democrats are trying to destroy our Constitution when they want to pack the Supreme Court or when they use the LGBT movement to destroy our children, or when they teach socialism in our schools. We all know that the teacher's unions are very far left and Democrats, right?

    Back to open borders for a minute. The recent jobs reports are showing falling job numbers for native Americans and rising job numbers for non-citizens. There have been some horrific crimes, rapes, murders, sexual assaults as well as robberies and other crimes tied to criminals coming across the Democrats' open border. These are just 2 reasons why I don't support open borders.

    I was just hoping to find out why you don't think the Democrats aren't trying to destroy the country. Those are some reasons I think they are.

    Which Democrat policies do you think are good for the country?

    Yes, they are trying to get rid of the middle class and what countries have no middle class? This effort has been ongoing for many years while the people slumbered and then something changed. That something was Donald Trump. He terrifies the Democrat Party because the people followed him and they are losing control. As Trump so often says they are after us, conservatives and middle class, and he is just standing in their way.

    I don't know why you are challenging me; I have clearly stated what I believe and what I mean. I do not support open borders, nor socialism, nor many of the Democratic policies. On the other hand, I also don't support some Republican policy such as the opposition to a woman's right to choose.

    I am a conservative independent and try to weigh issues on their own merit. I don't get caught up in conspiracy theories because I think that's a waste of time. I want to believe that most Americans whether conservative or liberal have the country's best interests at heart.

    I sware, lol, I couldn't listen to her any more, after her first big, fat, lie. Talk about an extreme idea, like she accused President Trump of, she's either in total denial, or she knows their are people out here that will support her no matter what, because they believe the lie, and cannot see the truth!!

    Beth, you haven't been challenged. You were very politely asked to clarify your beliefs and only because you commented and continue to comment about conspiracy theories. I see nothing wrong with making an effort to understand what others believe and why they would make that conspiracy theory comment.

    Most people on a forum are only too happy to express what they believe about issues, often at length, although not everyone. Nevertheless, the exchange was clarifying for me. Thanks!

    The interesting thing to me, if misery loves company, it is happening all over the world. Look at Trudeau, the golden child of the WEF, and Canada, Look at Australia's disarmament. Look at the Netherlands, England, basically all of Europe being invaded as well.
    I think Poland is shooting migrants. Ireland does not seem to keen on them coming in either.
    We financed the UN to do this for the WEF who thinks if you are not of the elite, you are just eaters, not worth too much. But a free people will be more trouble than poor immigrants who will do anything because they came from less.
    IMHO

    Wow, this is so true, there's a lot of intelligence on this forum, I've said a few times, I like coming here because it's so good to be amongst like-minded people. Not that we all agree on every little thing, but honestly, good to know that I'm not the only one that sees things the way I do. As far as our "illegals" that is an invasion, and I think Polands got the right to protect their borders, and we should have had the right as well:mad:

    That is exactly what I asked of @Ed Marsh, educated and up on leftist research. But he left without giving an answer.

    Mary, you make some excellent points. I will just add to your list something that happened in England a couple of weeks ago. I don't think it was mentioned here but I go to other places, so I'm not sure.

    It concerned children being stabbed by a young man of Muslim extraction. The citizenry rose up all over the country and marched and protested. Many were arrested, jailed and labeled racist and "far right" by the powers that be in England now. I'll just post a link to one story for anyone interested.

    It is not ALL Democrats or ALL Republicans. It is the ones who have been bought off and have the power of the purse and who make the laws. The Democrats have totally changed from the ones who were against war and were for the common man of the 60's. Right after killing John F, Martin L, and Robert F. Made a lot of people afraid and willing to do as they were told if they would not be bought.
    It is like The Jews are BAD. Jews are not bad but some in control are. It is the ones who are in control and corrupt that are bad in every group.

    Excellent, well said @Yvonne Smith. And all Kamala did was cackle, and call it an extreme idea, or thought, can't remember what I heard her say about his statement when I looked at just parts of the debate. She seems to be so uneducated about what's really happening, outside her little bubble. But that's why she's next in live for the democrat party candidate;) If she was really smart, they wouldn't want her, their candidate needs to be controllable ;)

    Thank you. I don't see a lot of the outside world from there. But it is the world that is on fire and I think many of the people in other countries are looking to Trump. And it is interesting to me while they try to disarm law abiding people here, they don't see that there are plenty of other ways to kill. How can they take away all knives. I carry one all the time and use them in food prep, cutting baling twine...

    It doesn't help that even the Republicans keep referring to it as a "democracy."
