GOP's 2020 Platform Against Extremism

How do you expect to win 2020 with even fewer 'conservatives' supporting the Trump? Expand your information sources, please.

Reasonable policies that counteract systemic discrimination?
Nah, I want the gays to be Christian gays. Since that obviously can't exist, they disappear.

Because the poster childen of the new Dem party is going to cause the majority of reasonable Dem's to side with the Republicans.
You are even going to lose the majority of the Jewish community due to Rashida Tlaib.
Jewish groups condemn Rashida Tlaib over ties to radical pro-Hezbollah, anti-Israel activist
You're misinformed. Jews don't vote republican for good reason. And the random 2-3 people you mention do not represent the democratic party.

You act like there are no people in the republican party who despise jews. I can look at how many jews are in congress to tell where their position stands.

Liz Peek is a joke.

Then came the upbeat State of the Union address, in which President Trump celebrated America’s proud history, talked up the booming jobs market and asked his rivals to choose greatness over gridlock.

Boom! Trump was back, while Democrats looked alternately churlish or childish by comparison.
Please, the only reason a gridlock happened to begin with was because he wouldn't compromise on border security. Between Trump and McConnell there was no compromise to be found.

No one of value is an activist for abortion, despite her desperate attempt to make people believe it.

With caravans continuing to head north and threatening...
No they aren't. You are full of it.

Just in the past week, a suspected member of the notorious MS-13 gang murdered a rival on a New York subway.
So wait. You think we should give in to a border wall because you think, but can't confirm, a single gang member committed murder? Are you that stupid, Liz? You think our national budget should be dictated by a single incident? Get out of here.

The Green New Deal could have been a junior high science project; instead, it will be the centerpiece of Republicans’ war on Democrat extremism.
Oh good, another fictional war to add to Fox's toolkit. See: War on Christmas, War on Success, War on American Values, etc. It is so laughable it should be a meme.

In short, this article sucks and provides no value or meaningful dialogue to anything.

That is possible but it depends. If the Republicans produce a moderate candidate, I think it is reasonable.

The post before this one you debunk the article and in this one you say it is plausible. Question????

I debunked Liz Peek because I found her analysis blindly partisan and useless. If the Republicans take a conservative approach to their fiscal platform while at the same time take a moderate (not extreme) position on social issues, they can win in 2020. I do not believe Trump is their guy for this particular assignment.

What? Me worry?

Well, with today's 52% approval rating, I don't think that's going to be a problem.

We all know how reliable polling is, don't we? Ask Hillary. :D To be fair, I do not think 2020 will be the cake walk the left wants it to be.

Well it appears that the Dem's really shot themselves in the foot the past few weeks.
Liz Peek: GOP's 2020 campaign will put Dem extremism on trial
Ocasio-Cortez adviser admits he falsely claimed Green New Deal didn't promise security for those 'unwilling' to work'

Yeah;I'm an instigator. Bad weather, can't ride the ATV so got to have some fun once in awhile.
This seems to me like very good branding for the Republicans. Donald Trump is a profound genius with this sort of stuff... he may know how to let his rating lag and then raise it at the appropriate time.

I agree with the outlook regarding moderates and independents if Dems continue to swing further left and if their candidate reflects that shift. Trump could easily bank on this during a reelection campaign and will in my view. After all there is a difference between the campaign and what is enacted as policy after an election.

Is it just me, or does
"GOP's 2020 Platform Against Extremism"
seem to be an oxymoron?

Can you at least try to find a reliable source? If your only source is extreme right wing news then it brings all of your claims into question.
