It's self identified in the article so I wouldn't know about official party statistics without looking further.

That's probably where they got the numbers

I'd say it's 45% R, 45% D, and 10% self-claimed 'Independent' or 'other'

"Last year, in addition to the 29% of Americans who identified as Democrats, another 16% said they were independents but leaned toward the Democratic Party, for a combined total of 45% Democrats and Democratic leaners among the U.S. population. Likewise, 26% of Americans identified as Republicans and an additional 16% identified as independents but leaned toward the Republican Party, for a combined total of 42% Republicans and Republican leaners."

So not far off.

Yep, sounds about right

It's two years old though so I bet a lot has changed since the article was written.

Even before the election.

A lot more Rs now lol

I don't think so.

I actually changed parties just to vote for Trump.

I think a lot more people will vote republican because of how left the Democratic party is.

In the primaries.

@Shurik That's what I said

Like I'm definitely not a republican but I'm going to vote republican

The current political climtate reminds me of when the republicans were super evangelocon and the dems were a tent party. How that seems to have reversed. Dems are becoming socialistlib and republicans are becomming tent party of centrists and right of them.

I mean it's the usual pendulum swing.

Sometimes it swings so far that the one-trick pony party collapse and a new one emerges

Like Whigs, and Federalists and those other ones

Can we help fasten the collapse of the socialists tho? Like can I press a to skip their cutscene.

Nope

No, it's an interactive scene

Another 6 years of trump

That's probably the o ly way we can speed it up

Unless the recession hits next year, and it's all blamed on Trumps tariffs

^

And it would make sense

Depression will come out of the chinese housing bubble collapse.

@Fredrickbismark There's a much bigger bubble, dude

I am not looking forward to that one.

Student loan bubble?

That'll fuck so many people over

US bonds

Assuming we don't balance the budget in the next few years

HA

Which we wont

A man can dream

A man can dream

Once it collapses all the rural an caps can come out and rule the world tho.

They are as bad as the socialists

Trying to justify there own Utopia
