      See here’s what I’m wondering, if they are so easy to manipulate, why can’t the left just manipulate them into voting democrat?

        They’re easy to manipulate if you play off their basic tribal fears and religious bigotry. The Democrats are far from a perfect party but they at the very least aren’t openly bigots.

        Because honesty and integrity matter for society. We’re trying to create a better world, not replace the Republicans with Democrats who behave just as badly but have a different name.
