Fear the immigrants. Fear the latinos. Fear the blacks. Fear socialism. Fear your job loss. Fear your neighbor cause they might be liberals.

Is it my imagination or does fear play a huge part in the republican agenda?
 
Yes. End thread.

If by fear you mean unfounded bias/racism, yes.
 
I don't think the motivation is fear. I think Republicans believe in upholding the rule of law, and being able to pay for things and stuff like that.

The Democrats exhibit fear when they call Trump Hitler and his followers NAZIS!

Yes.

Republicans are very effective at conveying who and what they are against. They are against civil rights. They are against LGBTQ rights. They are against women's rights. They are against the environment. They are against affordable healthcare. They are against public education. Etc., etc., etc.

What exactly is that party for other than a bunch of ultra-rich white dudes and guns? They don't talk about that much.

Ultra rich white dudes run this nation. They are both Republican and Democrat. The difference is how they view social and fiscal situations.

Rich white men are more Republican than Democratic. And you didn't answer my question.

You so funny.
You forgot about Schumer claiming women will no longer have any rights if Kavanaugh was nominated. Talk about fear monger. There are many examples of fear mongers making allegations that simply never materialized. Politics as usual.

Thank you for making my point that democrats love to allege republicans are racist and sexist.

Be honest, are you for open borders and higher taxes and more regulation? Why?

You are wrong. Look it up.
The democrats are the party of the rich.

As opposed to the Democrats and media (but I repeat myself), whose campaign theme has become "whitie is the devil".

Or you can use the lefts argument, "fear the old white men".

Fiscal responsibility, less government, powerful military, family values etc.

They believe in paying for things so much that they added a trillion dollars to the debt so their grandchildren could have the pleasure of paying for it.

Sure they do. They're for tax cuts for the rich, building a big beautiful wall, deporting people, and taking away people's health insurance.

ETA: Oh, I forgot. They're also for deregulation so that the dirtier air quality will cause more health problems like asthma while fewer people have the health insurance to pay for it.

LOL! Absolutely no credible evidence, whatsoever, backs up that asinine assertion.

OK! But you agree with me regarding the Hitler and Nazi part?
 
Common sense is the main subject of Republican campaigning. Idealistic BS that won't work in the real world is the subject of Democratic campaigning.

A working immigration policy? Plenty of jobs to keep people off food stamps? Ending ridiculous freeloading by China and other countries? Sounds pretty common sensical to me.

The ‘dark underbelly’ of our Nation is the dirty laundry of Citizens Divided 1.0 and 2.0, with the 2nd one argued by McConnell in front of the USSC.

We’re already seeing the RNC out with effective ads, while the DNC remains silent. I’ll continue to keep my eyes on Brad Parscale.
