    Another newbie

    Hi, I知 also new here. I stumbled across this site and signed up. I知 trying to find a thoughtful political forum with members on all sides of political issues. I find one-sided echo chamber forums to be pointless. However, as a proud Democrat who believes that Trump represents an existential threat to the future of this country, I知 beginning to think that this forum is not for me. We値l see.

    Give it a try.

    Who knows, it is possible you could be one of the few smart Democrats. Uh, wait, isn't smart democrat an oxymoron?
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    I laughed. Smart Democrats are oh, so rare. They are like jumbo shrimp.

    Welcome. I hope you find what you are looking for. There are plenty of reasonable people of varying political positions here.

    Can you define "existential threat to the future of this country"?

    Welcome.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
