I’m guessing 75% conservative? Maybe closer to 80%?

Just curious

Ive voted libertarian more than anything else

Pube 2nd

Dim 3rd

Didn't vote 4th

But that doesn't mean anything. Be a good exercise to list 5 political topics and have people list their stances.

Wish this board had poll options, or maybe it does and I dont see it on Tapatalk

There are like 1 liberal who posts here regularly. CommieTom is paid to do so.

A couple more Prog Filth show up when they feel like they are winning. Like when a Republican gets assassinated, or one of there dumbasses does a “suicide by ICE”. That would be Elvis APPanassApp, and Gitahole. Most everyone else is a patriot.

I'd say about 70% conservative, 20% declared libertarians, 8% Liberal, 2% socialist/communist.

That’s probably way more accurate than my guess.

For a libertarian, in today’s environment, which way would you vote? Most libertarian friends of mine, and there are several actually, voted straight republican because of what the left has morphed into.

Most libertarian people I know are much more politically dialed in than me.
I used to be much more in the middle than I am now, since the left has forced most of us to choose a side.

There are no "liberals" on this board. There are leftist commies...

Chick's with d!cks / Men can get pregnant
Covid BS
Russia Hoax
Illegals
Defund the police (now Defund Ice)
BLM
Tax the Rich
Trans kids absurdity
Trans story hour
Against voter ID
All levels of education system infiltrated by commies
DEI
Social Justice scams
Abortion up until birth

I could go on and on and on.... every single leftist on this board has been on the wrong side of every one of those. So no, there are no liberals on this board.

I’ve voted in 10 Prez. elections. I honestly do not remember how I voted in each one, but my best guess is GOP 6, Libertarian 4.

I’m positive I voted for Bush against Dukakis (88), for Bush against Kerry (04), Gary Johnson (16), and Trump (20, 24).

92, 96, 00, 08, 12 — I feel embarrassed that I don’t remember, but I just don’t — except to say, I know that I’ve never voted Dem. for President in a General Election. I did vote in Democrat presidential primaries a few times.

Looking back all these years later, I am very thankful that McCain lost in 08, and that Romney lost in 12. I think they would’ve been terrible for the country. It may be that I voted for them and have now repressed the memory of doing so, LOL.

Close to where I stand. Every time I test for party, I come out Libertarian. But I really don't have much in common with the current Libertarian party. And I'm def not a pacifist.

I remember most of mine, starting in 1968.

Three Pubs (Reagan 2 and Trump 2 & 3). I was skeptical of Reagan at first. I still dislike Trump, but Biden and Harris were ultimate disasters.

Two Dems (Carter 1 and Clinton 1). Partly b/c they were Southerners, and I wanted to see what they could do. This was LONG before the Dems started going over the left-hand cliff.

Two write-ins. One of those for a cartoon character (I was pissed that year, lol, just can't remember which year). One for Fred Smith.

The rest 3rd party, with maybe a sit-out or 2, can't recall now. No way I can recall all those names. Most were forgettable.

My biggest takeaway is I've never really been happy with the choices. The only one I really like in hindsight is Reagan 2.

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
I've said this many times, but might as well once more. I'm a conservative/republican Republican. Been one since 2000. Never been a Democrat. (I'm actually proud of that, by the way.)

POTUS:
Republican - 2000-2012; 2020-present.
Third party (write-in) - 2016.

All other elections: Republican -- that is, conservative/republican Republican -- since 2000. (You can also say MAGA/America First Republican since 2017-ish.)

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
Well Maximus is right that we don't actually have any "liberals" on the board. We have a few woke far left quacks and a few trolls, but no liberals.

Liberals and "the left" have moved so far apart the last 8-10 years that liberals now qualify as MAGA republicans in the eyes of "the left".

Trump was never a conservative, neither was Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, RFK jr, ect. Trump is in fact surrounded by a lot of former democrat liberals. And most of their positions have not changed much, what has changed is the left.

Look at their positions on the border and illegals, they shared the exact same public position as Obama, the Clintons, Biden, Schumer and the rest of the liberals 10 years ago. They still have the same exact position on this as back then but now they are called racist, white supremacist MAGA extremists for holding the exact same position they always have.

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
I was raised a Conservative.

I have voted Republican in every Presidential election except 2008 and 2012. I fell for the hope and change BS of Obama. It didn’t help that the Republican Party ran McCain and Romney.

A year or so into Obama’s first term my son asked me “why you white folks support Obama. Black folks know he’s full of ish”

By the time Obama was done, we had no hope and the change we got we didn’t want. I would never make the mistake of voting Democrat again.

Actually didn’t support Trump early in the 2016 cycle because I thought it was a publicity stunt. Had planned to sit out and miss a presidential election for the first time since ‘80. Then Hillary attacked Trump supporters with her “basket of deplorables” comment. I knew then we couldn’t let that broad anywhere near the Oval Office.

Then whoever ran her Twitter account in October 2016 tweeted the “Happy Birthday to the first female President” and I knew I had made the right choice.

I still believe Trump won the 2020 election. Hopefully we will see the evidence. 2020 radicalized my politics.

While the Republican Party has moved further to the Center than I would want, Democrats have gone full Commie. If LBJ was alive he would declare war on them.

I see no way forward for the country that doesn’t involve a civil conflict. Democrats keep pushing and pushing. “Republicans” are spineless. If Conservatives ever get complete control of the Republican Party and start pushing back, Democrats will be in trouble.

The average American is tired of being pissed on by BOTH parties. If they are forced to choose sides they won’t choose those cutting breasts off little girls and the testicles off little boys.

Watch what’s going on in DC now with the Democrats. They’re showing their hand. Hopefully Conservatives keep preparing for what’s coming.

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
I havent voted for a president since Ross Perot. As far as local, I have lived in an overwhelming democrat area, overwhelming republican area, and now back to overwhelming democrat... my vote isnt going to change that at all. If there is a point where my vote actually sways the area I am in, then I would vote Republican, but next election it will be landslide democrat where I live so my vote does not matter..

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
I used to be GOP conservative when I was young. When I was a little older I flirted with a more libertarian approach and even joined the Libertarian party for a year. Now I'm at the point where I think I'm a true centrist. I'd describe myself as a JFK Democrat in politics, but currently I am not a member of any political party.

Truth. There are no more liberals. There are radical leftists, and there are the idiots who support them without questioning why.

RE: What’s the lib vs. conservative membership on this board?
Hey CJ, we followed a similar path, just different parties. My dad was a union officer, and deep into Dem politics. He had me helping with political campaigns starting when I was 5 years old. 1952. Eisenhower vs. Stevenson.

Stevenson got his ass kicked, but my dad was right back at it in '56. Same result. Then in 1960, we finally won one. JFK. Then he was assassinated. I was in the 11th grade. I remember being sad and horrified, and at some point in the next year (I was now 17), I bowed out of helping my dad, b/c my entire childhood, I had nothing but sad political experiences in the end. Ironic, since everything else in my childhood was pretty damn sweet.

But that broke me from being tied to any one political conclusion ahead of time. I couldn't vote yet in '64, so '68 was my first vote. I went to a Nixon rally at my college (do they even do that any more?), stood in line, shook his hand, and talked briefly with him.

As Nixon moved down the line, I turned to my roommate and said, "There is no way in hell I'm voting for that dude." He had shifty eyes, he didn't look me in the eye (he was looking ahead), and his upper lip and palms were sweaty. I also didn't care for Humphrey, even though he was a Dem, b/c as a young southerner. I couldn't relate to some old dude from MN. So I voted third party, and that started a pretty steady path for me.

I strayed off in '76 with Carter, b/c I could relate to him, and at that time, I was registered Indy but still leaned Dem. I changed briefly in '84 with Reagan 2, b/c his first term was impressive, but then I thought Bush 41 was a nothing. Didn't like the Dem, either, so back to 3rd party for that one. Then in '92, I voted for Clinton. Again, a southern boy, and a Dem, whose party I still favored just a bit. '96, back to third party. And stayed there until Trump these last two elections, b/c Obama and Hillary opened my eyes to how crooked and soulless they were.

And although I still dislike Trump, I liked his policies a lot. Plus I probably became a bit more conservative in my old age.

But, given my background, I laugh every time some lefty on here calls me a Trump sycophant, since I dislike the guy, and had only voted for one R in my life (Reagan once) until Trump's second run in 2020. Of course, I also know Trump is not really a Pub. He is a Trumpian. Which I'm not.

But even then, I'm now where you are. Probably stuck on the right from here on out, b/c the Dems are just so damn corrupt, and have moved so far left, I can no longer see them.

I've voted for one democrat who was running for the senate in my district unopposed, and he was a true blue dog. Every other election since Reagan I've voted straight republican. I know I'll never vote for another democrat. You can't trust these lowlifes to run a lemonade stand without pilfering the lemons, the sugar and the money.

After talking to a family member who is more tuned in than me, I’m now certain that I voted GOP (Dole/Kemp) in 96, but did not vote GOP in 92 or 00.

So that makes my score GOP 5, Third Party 3, Dem 0, and 2 that I’m just not sure.

I have voted Dem. for many state/local offices, however.
