Discussion of/and Topics related to the Republican Party (NOTE: ANY AND ALL LINKS POINTING TO FAR-RIGHT WEBSITES/CONTENT CREATORS IS BANNED AND CAN/WILL LEAD TO A BAN FROM THE COMMUNITY.).
RULES:
-
1: The Goldwater Rule due to the rise of Nutjob Incels in the GOP, any and all content that is glorifying any kind of White Supremacist along with spreading lies from these people leads to an automatic ban. The reason for it being called the Goldwater Rule is that he sort of caused this to happen.
-
2: The Fuentes Rule This is more or less a Rule 1.1, but also contains more specific information about far-right content here. First of all, if it is used for a quote then that is mostly okay unless there is Racism in the quote. But otherwise it is banned.
-
3: The Trump Rule You can not glorify Trump here. He was not the second coming of Christ.

Well, it would be a big change in the GOP if someone like RFK Jr. runs in 2028.
He seems to be pandering to the working class with his populist talking points.
I don’t think it would be a big change for the GOP. They pander to coal, blue collar and small town all the time only to fuck them over (not the smartest demographic, but still).
The GOP is the embodiment of a wolf in sheep’s clothes. They eat 2/3 of their followers
Edit: and the Dems ain’t much better, but they are rn

Yes, the duopoly is known for pandering to the working class only when they are running for office, but I don't think talking down to the voter base helps anyone.
When you look at what Obama and Trump ran on, what they accomplished, and who they appointed in office, when they took office, they were only pandered to the working class but continued the status quo.
