Has GOP/US right gone as mad as it seems?

...Like I said, just a few small differences. :)
Small? The core Democrat fan club wailed and gnashed their teeth when Trump won.
The core Republican fan club refused to accept reality, chose to believe a lie, and tried to overturn a free and fair election when Trump lost.

Democrats have pretty much now realigned ti be firmly pro-LGBT.
Republicans still demand they get special rights and privileges to discriminate against LGBT people because of what they believe about their ancient and primitive superstitions.

You know, minds have changed alot since gay marriage was legalized. These days, you see more and more Republicans backing it. It helps to realize that sometimes, because the world is constantly changing, and at ever faster speeds these days.

Trump rolled back the gains Obama gave to transgender people. He wouldn't even let the CDC study us or mentioned the word in print. And before Trump Pence signed in his RFRA bill that did allow for discrimination against LGBT over "sincerely held religious beliefs." And when he backed down because of all the big business and events threatening to end relations with Indiana over it, many Republicans chastised Pence and considered him weak.
The Republicans are, after all, still a party with flocks and droves of members and voters who believe they should be able to govern from the altar.

@Shadow Wolf, you do realize that the Republican party has historically been an atheistic party, right? Back when Goldstein was popular. So there's no reason to think that the Christians have permanent ties to the GOP. It changes all the time.

It's only recently that some within the right have taken on the attitude of governing from the altar. There could be ways to counter that.

Conservative Christians are a solid voting bloc for the GOP. Sure, in times past we'd be voting for opposite parties entirely. But that was then, this is now, and the Republican party now is indeed the party for those who want to govern from the altar.

That end of the Republican party is becoming increasingly unpopular. That's the way I see it, but I haven’t exactly researched it yet. I would imagine so, though, with the millennials, and with time moving on.

I want to see both parties end. Neither of them are good for the country anymore. Its time for another approach.

Can't say I've heard much about ending it.
I've heard lots on rebranding, shedding new members, schisms, amd outreach to new voters, but not much on full on ending it.

So does that mean the Black Panthers represent the mind of the left, since they liked Obama?
You do more than tap dance. You waltz all over the floor. Care to try to sticking to one topic? You posted...
You ever notice there's no survey saying MAGA's want a white America..?

. .Because it's not true. It's CNN propoganda.
I refuted it with information from three different sources. One of them referenced a poll. That directly refutes your claim that there are no "surveys" showing MAGAs are racist.

Care to address the rebuttals or will you try another dance?

It's just that Democrats, and many on the left are very good students of their elected officials, and do as directed.

That's really hilarious considering that Trump told his Sheeples , as far back as 2016 that the only way he could lose was if the election was rigged and they believed him.
That's really hilarious considering that Trump told his Sheeples to march on the Capitol and they did.

The only thing leftist dems did that their leader asked was to Dump Trump. Realistically, we didn't need anyone to tell us to Dump Trump.

Many of us decided that after he told his tenth big lie.
Many of us decided that after he verbally assaulted one more person.
Many of us decided that after he told us how great he was for the umpteenth time.

The only thing we need to despise Trump was Trump's own words and actions.
The only thing we need to despise the Sheeples is to see their unfaltering adoration.

It's even worse in the Netherlands. This is not unique to the American right.

The ideology is freedom and liberty, and it's all around the world... It's just that Democrats, and many on the left are very good students of their elected officials, and do as directed.
So you're saying that it isn't the US right that is uniquely crazy and that the right is this crazy everywhere? Ok. Could be.

What kind of stuff is happening on the right that is good/promising but I'm just not seeing?

Everything on the right is good and promising. You have been indoctrinated.

A wise man’s heart inclines him to the right, but a fool’s heart to the left.
Ecclesiastes 10:2

O how terrible for those who confuse good with evil,
right with wrong, light with dark, sweet with bitter.

Although some individuals may struggle with LRD more than others, discriminating between left and right in the face of distraction has been shown to impair even the most proficient individual's ability to accurately differentiate between the two. This issue is of particular importance to medical students, clinicians and health care professionals, where distraction in the workplace and LRD inaccuracy can lead to severe consequences, including laterality errors and wrong-side surgeries.[17] Laterality errors in the field of aviation may also lead to equally devastating results, for example, causing a major airline crash.

That's the big lie. Massive fraud in 2020 election. No question. I saw it with my own eyes.

Rather than engage in personal attacks, the best thing religious people could do is look at what Trump has done for RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. More than anyone since the demi-god Founding Father's via 1A.
