According to a poll conducted by two academic authors and published by The Washington Post, 52 percent of Republicans said they would back a postponement of the next election if Trump called for it.

If Trump and congressional Republicans proposed postponing the election to ensure only eligible citizens could vote, support from Republicans rises to 56 percent.

Pollsters found 47 percent of Republicans think Trump won the popular vote.

    You yourself said it, "old Republican proposals" on healthcare. They somehow still failed to enforce net neutrality. LGBT community? I don't have anything against LGBT whatsoever and have no problem at all with them having the same rights as everyone else, but it is an extremely marginal issue about a very small fraction of the population. It's extremely important to members of the LGBT segment of the population, but of no consequence to anyone else. That's harsh, but it's true. It's only used as a wedge issue to try and prove that their policy outcomes are different from each other when they aren't. Except that stopped working because people largely stopped giving a shit about hating LGBT people because they have become too painfully aware that the system is totally broken for everyone. That's why they started in on all the trans- nonsense, because of course you gotta up the ante in the controversy porn.

    Please stop playing into the gyre of doom. If you allow the lizard people to direct your energy into hating your fellow countrymen with stupid empty labels like "Republican" or "Democrat" when you have infinitely more in common with any of them than with any of the lizard people, then you will have none left to deal with the lizard people who are the cause of all our woe.
