(9,895 posts)They will sting Democrats as soon as they believe it is financially viable or advantageous to do so once more...these people are spiritual cousins of Swift Boaters and the people who sold Iraq war...
Currently, they follow the maxim 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend', but THAT will not last.

(23,105 posts)Tangerine Terrorist is losing the seniors of America and white seniors were his margin of winning in a few states and how he was able to steal the presidency. We are not about to die quietly so the oligarchs can continue to rape our country with no consequences. I hope meat packers don't go to work and can survive this because if they go to work they probably won't.

(1,726 posts)I'm afraid I would help the economy too if I went off and died. I'm sucking up the Social Security.

(90,714 posts)We think of ourselves as people of principle, which is good & those principles are why I am a Democrat.
But over the many decades of my life I have watched ostensibly principled people get continually distracted by shiny objects and squirrels thrown into our paths by the GOP and by groups even farther to the right. And if it isn't them, it's our own purity tests.
We are so predictable and we make it so easy for our enemies to destroy us. In this day and age, with the Republican Party rotten to the core and the Trumpists actively destroying America, let me emphasize: Winning isn't everything; winning is the only thing.

(6,890 posts)Republican family values and Republican economic policies are what got us into the situation where so many of the elderly are in assisted living or even more care, but couase their kids can't afford to take care of them at home.
I'm not saying only republicans do that ... but probably only Republicans do it without feeling a sense of loss.

(20,202 posts)I have a 91 year old aunt that lives in one and loves it. It gives them some feeling of independence, because they are paying for the service and don't need as much assistance from their children.

(6,890 posts)A nursing home was my mother's choice after her second broken hip. Small town, she had volunteered there for decades, knew the staff, was comfortable with them. And there is no way I could have taken care of her better. I couldn't even get employment there ... not decent employment, but any employment. She died there 18 years ago. I sill miss her. I don't blame myself, and I certainly don't blame her. I do kind of bame the circumstances.
