NEVER let Republicans pretend to care about "fiscal responsibility" ever again.
NEVER argue or give Republicans any benefit of the doubt ever again. If someone says they're Republican you should immediately shut them out of your life.
I can't tell if your joking. The average Republican is pretty much the same as the average Democrat. I believe shifting blame onto a stereotype of the other party is some sort of Freudian transferance.
They are absolutely not, you are either extremely dumb or have been living under a rock your whole life. It's not even a "recent time should have made you realise it", right wing politics have been objectively bad for way longer than anyone alive at the moment (I admit that I don't know the full history of the left/right political climate, so I'm not gonna say that what the general idea of right wing politics is has always been bad, I realised I need to learn more about it and will do so).
It's literally right wing "we want to control people and hate anyone who is different" vs left wing "we just want everyone, independent on their gender, skin color, where they're from, economical status etc. to be ok". Current American Republicans vs Democrats is not even close to a good scale of "right vs left" and it's not even a good scale and representation of historical American Republicans vs Democrats, it's all so fucked.
They absolutely are, you are extremely silly
Look at results of their leadership over decades, don't listen to what they claim.
Democrats say they are the labor party... yet labor continues to collapse under their leadership.
Republicans say they are for smaller government... yet the government continues to bloat under their leadership.
When the RESULTS are the same, they are effectively the same, in spite of your bloviating. Results prove they are bOtH anti-labor and rapidly expansive government.
The Democrats are right-wing. They're the party of "nothing will fundamentally change". They don't care about whether or not you're okay, unless you're part of the 1%.
