You have to be stupid to be a republican.

Go back to 2006 and tell 30-something you that you will be typing this on the Motown board in twenty years.

I will admit to my own opinions shifting somewhat but it was also heavily influenced by the turn the party made. I always wonder where I would be today if someone like Rubio had gotten the nomination in ‘16.

there were lots of turning point for the GOP. If the other Bush brother had pushed his brother aside it would be a whole different history as well.

I wish we had the old board. I always had it on my to do list to track my “progress”. I do know I shifted after Sandy Hook. When I saw the response as the canned NRA talking points I knew I was different.

I think there are upwards of 5 posters here that were on the conservative and or republican side before trump that are not now.

I was on the correct side from the beginning.

I’ve moved rightward toward Marxism. 😉 

[Netnerd]

My leftward trend started with George W and his Iraq fiasco. McCain-Palin, Tea Party, Donald… the lemmings plunged over the cliff while I watched.

Closest I ever came to voting Republican was 2010 and Rick Snyder. I couldn’t bring myself to do it, so I voted for Virg Bernero. First election I voted in was Detroit mayor when I voted for Kwame.
