I'm willing to bet that the base sees Trump as the only one who's actually fighting and succeeding. The RNC doesn't want to incur that wrath and doesn't have viable alternatives. So...

2019-02-10 05:35:31 UTC  

If you dig down, there's a good bit of dissatisfaction with Trump.

2019-02-10 05:35:34 UTC  

theyd backstab quick

2019-02-10 05:35:44 UTC  

Example, 80% of college Republicans would like to see a primary challenger.

2019-02-10 05:35:45 UTC  

doen't change how the GOP is united under trump

2019-02-10 05:35:51 UTC  

even though they dont agree with everything he says

2019-02-10 05:35:57 UTC  

he is the only leader of the GOP right now

2019-02-10 05:36:04 UTC  

so what happens when hes gone?

2019-02-10 05:36:08 UTC  

I'm saying, the unity is an illusion born of desperation.

2019-02-10 05:36:25 UTC  

who in the republican party can primary trump and expect to win?

2019-02-10 05:36:30 UTC  

The Democrats were "united" under Obama, right up until the union base fled in 2016.

2019-02-10 05:36:33 UTC  

who can replace him?

2019-02-10 05:36:47 UTC  

No one, that's why the RNC won't challenge him.

2019-02-10 05:36:55 UTC  

and that's what i said

2019-02-10 05:37:05 UTC  

the democrats right now have no leader

2019-02-10 05:37:10 UTC  

Remember, the RNC is filled with experienced activists and politicians. They won't signal disagreement until they're ready.

2019-02-10 05:37:16 UTC  

That's a lesson to you too, by the way.

2019-02-10 05:37:19 UTC  

even hillary wasn't a DNC leader a lot of people hated her, and by that i mean democrats

2019-02-10 05:37:40 UTC  

Sure, but I got a feeling they'll be much more united (if only against Trump) once they get through the primaries.

2019-02-10 05:37:53 UTC  

so basically you are just agreeing with me right now that the GOP is united under trump

2019-02-10 05:37:56 UTC  

You have people like Tim shaking their head, but that won't necessarily stop the party.

2019-02-10 05:37:58 UTC  

which is what i was saying

2019-02-10 05:38:20 UTC  

the democrats are split between the moderates and the socialists

2019-02-10 05:38:21 UTC  

No, I'm saying they lack alternatives and aren't going to openly challenge him until they're ready. But secretly, privately, they're pretty divided.

2019-02-10 05:38:27 UTC  

but sure hatred of trump would unite them to some extent

2019-02-10 05:38:53 UTC  

what does it matter that they are privately divided when they publically support trump throughout his presidency

2019-02-10 05:39:30 UTC  

Think of it this way. Everyone keeps saying "the majority favors free speech" and "the far left is only 8% of the population."

This means you should be able to go into a room (including a boardroom) with 10 people and there's maybe 1 SJW. But whenever we see a number of people, that's not the tone that's set.

2019-02-10 05:39:37 UTC  

So clearly, there's a division in society.

2019-02-10 05:39:41 UTC  

by the time they are "ready" trump already finished his 8 years

2019-02-10 05:39:55 UTC  

But because there's not a way to push back, they're laying low.

2019-02-10 05:40:07 UTC  

We're arguing over two different things.

2019-02-10 05:40:23 UTC  

you aren't even arguing against the original argument

2019-02-10 05:40:29 UTC  

and just went off on your own mate

2019-02-10 05:40:34 UTC  

This is all a distraction anyways.

2019-02-10 05:40:43 UTC  

Let's get back to SJWs in anime.

2019-02-10 05:40:49 UTC  

you watch anime?

2019-02-10 05:41:02 UTC  

Not that much. But that was the original discussion.

2019-02-10 05:41:08 UTC  

well i can tell you one thing about anime

2019-02-10 05:41:23 UTC  

i'm from japan, i work as a translater/interpreter

2019-02-10 05:41:44 UTC  

so i know a shitload about anime and japanese culture, and there is an actual rape culture in japan so sjws will never take over anime that's for sure

2019-02-10 05:42:03 UTC  

o damn
