Do these guys just never learn?

They just got steamrolled in the election. It is painfully obvious that most Americans hate what is going on and are demanding changes.

But the Repubs just keep on with the same old schtick. They haven't changed at all. And Trump just keeps making the same mistakes over and over and over.

I would think they would have gotten the big picture after such a bruising. Guess not.

1. IMO they are basically ignorant, bullies and love hatred. The GOP is a disgusting lot. I really can't

imagine people wanting to be part of the GOP unless they are ignorant, racists and hateful people and/or religious wackos.

2. Trump said it was a tremendous victory. And it was.

A victory for sanity.

[malaise]

3. Look they are still claiming victory

Go figure
Let them continue.

4. Some explanation here:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/1016220370

A linguist explains how Trump uses lies to divert attention from the “big truths.”

'President Donald Trump has hacked the media.

5. They are succeeding at their primary goal...

they are churning out ultra-conservative activist judges at a prodigious pace.

Regardless if we take them down in 2020, we will be suffering from what this administration has done for many, many years.

12. hmmm

I wonder if someone could make their workplace(s) very, very uncomfortable. Like no raises for the foreseeable future. Office with no windows. That type of thing.

13. On another thread, I learned that Obama was able to appoint 329 judges. Some room for hope.

6. They only know one way to campaign

They lie about Dems and stir hate among people. It just happens to be a bonus that those are also their favorite tactics.

If they ever had to debate issues honestly they know they would be decimated. They don’t have an upper hand on any issue so they just bullshit

It’s amazing that their voters never catch on. Like how the hell are the assholes who always wreck the economy viewed by so many as ‘better on it’ ? or how is it that the party who always starts more wars favored by military families? Absolutely nuts. But until those preceptions are totally toast the Republicans will remain just as they are, bereft of ideas and morally disgusting.

7. Please continue republicans

[tclambert]

8. They'll just hold some more minority outreach seminars and women's outreach seminars.

Of course they'll need to find some old white guys to run the seminars first.

9. They didn't get steamrolled. They still own the Senate. Therefore,

they own all open seats in the Judiciary. Supreme Court, Circuit Courts of Appeal, good stuff like that.

[FSogol]

10. Hatred, bigotry, sexism, fear-mongering, and selfishness is all they have.

[FiveGoodMen]

11. They're not trying to represent Americans. They're trying to achieve permanent rule.

They only things they seek to learn involve fooling more people more completely.

[LiberalLovinLug]

14. Its because they can go from giant arrogant boors when they win

To insufferable persecuted snowflake victims when they lose.


Either one of those characteristics works wonders with their base. No need to change.

[JHB]

15. They won't until after several steamrollerings

One loss is a setback, but they've had setbacks before and later pushed ahead.

They won't change until they are repeatedly trounced and enough get the message that the old formula doesn't work the same way anymore.

[Nitram]

16. The GOPhers believe their own shit.

17. THE BLUE WAVE

I remember the election results. The majority was democratic which does not surprise me. The minority was 50 million votes republican, which surprised me. I thought the republican party was DECREASING? All these republican votes indicate to me this party is THRIVING in the rural areas of our country. These people seem to get a message from the republican party which answers their question concerning voting republican......they all hate and distrust people even other republicans......There is still more work required to INFORM these people of why we know the republican party is WRONG for this country. I think the republicans will continue to do their EVIL for at least another 20 years......
