    I admit I didn't read the article, but conformity and collaboration are not the same thing.

    It is the conformity that allows one to be programmed in the first place. Between the tendencies towards conformity and authoritarian compliance, certain individuals can be programmed into specific ways of thinking. It begins in one’s youth as one is inundated with a narrative from all sides, as one thrives to be one of the group. Part of the pack, the herd, the tribe.... Over years and years of bouncing around the bubble, repetition after repetition, strengthens and hardens those beliefs until they become cold hard facts in one’s mind. As evident as the sun rising every morning and setting every evening. It makes one bold and arrogant, dismissing any evidence to the contrary as mere heresy, the talk of fools.

    Reprogramming is useless as everyone knows, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.

    There is no indication that Biden has become senile. In fact, in his first couple of days in office he issued executive orders that mostly erased all that the Trump had done. The Trump, the greatest, bestest president ever, who accomplished more than any other in his first year, all undone in a day. .
    By a senile old man. .
    Being to the fact that the first clean election in Georgia in decades gave the Democratic Party control of the Senate, I’m sure Congress will get to work at righting the wrongs of Republican rule. .

    Well the fact that old moron has had two aneurysm "That we know of" is pretty bad! Then take in to consideration the bleeders age and that's a pretty stupid choice for President.. But hey, the DNC seems attracted to the mentally impaired, I think it has all to do with control, it certainly explains their loathing of Trump, they "Republicans or Democrats" clearly couldn't corral him..

    Joe-Joe brain bleeder meet all of the DNC criteria for the perfect trained house pet...

    Actually Trump is neither, he was the the antidote to leftist arrogance and hypocrisy. Too bad you could never recognize who the real enemy within is.

    Please note the same polls had Hillary 95% certain to win.

    Assuming Sanders doesn't drop dead before hand. 80 something and one heart attack already. I'll be surprised if any of the current Democratic leadership is still extant 5 years from now.

    I also changed to Dem for the same reason, to vote for Tulsi.

    Even if that were true you are not addressing the abandonment of principles by the POT.

    How do you know it's not or true? Clearly you all thought Trump was mentally impaired, and yet we all know Biden the cabbage head has already had two brain bleeds "That we know of" and yet he is a rutting buck as far as you and the other true believers are concerned..

    Seems odd wouldn't you agree, or is this a leftist "Ignore the obvious" in the name of hatred and winning at any cost?

    How do you mean mentally impaired? I would say there is ample evidence of a number of psychological conditions. Ones his niece spoke about. And his delusional beliefs on all manner of subjects suggests a form of psychosis.

    Look it up, simply review all your posts concerning Trump over the last four years, or better yet just look around at the thousands of other like minded folk you align with, not like they are much or any different then the next!
