      Trapping them in what? Their supporters don’t fucking care if they’re hypocrites.

        You don’t convince the opposition to vote for your candidate. You energize your own voters. This proves to Democratic voters that there are no good Republicans on this issue.

          “You don’t convince your opposition to vote for you…”

          Yes EXACTLY. Why do Democrats CONSTANTLY make appeals to the right, then?

            to convince low information democratic voters to vote for them without providing material benefit. To create “faith” that dem’s hearts are in the right place without proof

              Exactly: Further allow the country to rot and Repubs to pull the Overton Window to the right.

              Democrats are useful idiots. Through and through.

            You make some excellent points and I want to say that I think it is really unfortunate you got hit by the downvote bus.

              I’m not who you responded to but there’s a vocal contingent of never-grassers who find and downvote anything short of glowing praise of the DNC et al. Ya grow to love the downvotes, like little love taps from my fellow citizens <3. I might not agree with them, but i do appreciate them. At least theyre motivated.

          I agree IVF is good. What the fuck are you defending?

          My point is REPUBLICANS DON’T CARE!! You can point out how terrible and hypocritical it is all day, every day, and NOTHING WILL CHANGE.

          I’m saying this is a proven bad tactic to use against Republicans. Republican in-fighting is NOTHING like Democrat infighting. They WILL pull together when it comes to harming others. Every. Time.
