    Tim Scott is an African American that spoke at the Republican National Convention. He called Biden racist and stated that the DNC wants a "culture revolution"
    https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tim-scott-slams-biden-race-record-convention

    I think the statement about the Culture Revolution was too soft. The DNC want to change the US including the Constitution. They target Christian values, and GOP core values that call for the protection of the Constitution. They have attacked the military stating that they are in fact possible domestic terrorists. This is because they take an oath to support and protect the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. That makes the DNC enemies of the United States. The oath also requires them to the military to obey any orders from the President of the Untied States. I took that oath when I joined the Marines joined the Marines. Even though I have been out for 23 years, I have not rescinded that oath. I still support the US Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.

    I watched the CNN and MSNBC coverage of the RNC Convention and they couldn't help themselves, calling Republicans racist. We saw people of color speaking, but still you would have thought every speaker was wearing a KKK hood.

    It's standard boilerplate from the party which invented and sustained the KKK. When they run out of policy they turn to calumny.

    Do you realise that from the outside, you all look the same? Much of the time I can see an American giving a political speech and I'll have no idea whether they're supporting (or attacking) Democrats or Republicans unless they specifically say. The rhetoric is often indistinguishable and equally ridiculous. It could be amusing if it wasn't so serious and dangerous.

    Much of the time, I see European politicians and am profoundly glad my ancestors escaped from there. It could be hilarious watching Euro nations badmouth the U.S. while they thrust out their hands for our money.

    The republican party is no longer the party of family values, in fact, I don't recognize it at all. I am ashamed of Trumps America and just counting down to November 3.

    Hard to believe you ever thought we were. Is it because we still stand for God and country, pro-life, individual freedom, security, the Constitution? In what ways are democrats more pro-family, I'm very curious what you mean by that.

    I never said politicians anywhere else are any better but the topic here is America. My "from the outside" was more about outside the political bubble than outside the US.

    "A lot of posters claim that the GOP are racist"

    And a lot of posters claim the Dems are racist. So basically everyone is racist. There you go.

    And they ran out of policy long ago. Calumny is about all they know these days.

    There are NO family values, when God created all man equal and Americans deny those rights! As a Christian women, I am totally against Abortion, the exact same way I am against children being separated and caged by our Government. I' m against gun violence and racism. I believe in the ten commandments. Thou shall not kill. I follow the law of the God, feed the hungry, care for the sick. respect life. President Trump is a poor example of a human being for our children and grandchildren. There is no common decency in the way he treats others. He is disrespectful to anyone that doesn't agree with him, including his wives and children. He is a sociopath who exhibits the seven deadly sins, pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth. So Please don't tell me, the Party of Trump stands with God. Nothing could be further from the truth! He shows NO respect for anyone except himself and has a cult that is blind.

    Obama built the cages, some where between 25 and 30% of women and girls invited north by open borders policies you espouse are raped along the way 1000s more are forced to be drug mules by the cartels. Many of those children aren't being brought north by family members but rather by human traffickers. Some family values you have ...

    I'm NOT defending Obama. I am telling you, The republican party is NO longer the party of Family Values. Trump has done more to destroy our country than good!

    The beauty of it is that it isn't serious nor dangerous. While political parties say different things, they often do the same things when in power. Ignore what politicians say. It has no meaning. Most of them act like children. They are not representative of Americans.

    No it's the open borders crowds fault for converting the US into an attractive nuisance and placing people in harm's way in the doing.

    It's actually the businesses that hire illegals that make the US attractive. But by all means blame the "open borders" people for the rapes and human trafficking, instead of the rapists and human traffickers. You know...the people ACTUALLY responsible for rapes and human trafficking.

    garyd's point was that it certainly isn't Trump's fault as Dee trumpets.

    No, his point was that it is the fault of "open border" people, which is just as silly as blaming Trump.

    You still don't get it. For every job available to an illegal alien there were about ten coming north. The open borders crowds isn't of course responsible for the existance of rapist and murderers and drug cartels but they were responsible for people being in the cartel's area of operations by promising aid and comfort to those willing to break American immigration laws. And yes I am all for nuking the unholy alliance cheap labor Republicans, and open borders zealots both of whom seem to be intent on destroying the hope this country once was.

    No they weren't. The people responsible for being in the cartel's area are the people sneaking into the US illegally. Those coming here illegally made their OWN choice to do so. When businesses stop hiring illegals there will be no reason to come here. Jobs are the main reason illegals come here.

    They don't come if people aren't telling them it's okay. You understand the legal concept of an attractive nuisance?

    You don't really believe that do you? People have been coming here illegally for decades...well before the current day "open borders" people.
    People have been and will continue to come here for JOBS.
