But I’m on the ground here and there were plenty of people that refused to listen to the words straight from Trump’s mouth. They held Muslims for Trump rallies. Their political and spiritual leaders told them to either vote for trump or abstain.

What did you expect would happen when centrists ditched the only common cause the party had with Muslims?

Take some responsibility and make the necessary changes.

Because the party never fucking will. Ever.

I refuse to accept the Democrats going more conservative on things like gay and women’s rights.

Remember that when they do. Because they absolutely will. Resist the temptation to just point to their opponent and excuse everything Democrats do on the grounds that Republicans are worse.
