Hopefully rand realizes that just like the woke left, nothing is ever enough for the woke right. Trying to appease them won't accomplish anything.

Are you against BR citizenship??

If so, then why the rage at Paul?

I'm not addressing the issue, I'm addressing Rand's motivation for flipping on this issue. Assuming he actually did - I'm going to trust opie's research despite his history of being retarded.

Edit: Dang, grok says opie is a retard on this too

2011 (early in Senate tenure): Paul co-sponsored the Birthright Citizenship Act and a resolution (with Sen. David Vitter and others) to clarify that children born to illegal aliens do not automatically gain citizenship. The proposal limited automatic citizenship to cases where at least one parent is a U.S. citizen, a lawful permanent resident, or an active-duty member of the Armed Forces.

It's pretty clear that amnesty loving repuclians are preparing to Massie Rand for wanting citizenship protections. Very sad

That's a pretty reasonable clarification IMO. But 15 years since he offered it? Must not be a popular issue in congress.

Resolutions like this are pushed knowing they have no chance to pass(Obama was president and had control of the senate) in order to run on come election time, plus, its a way for Paul and other (R) to game the system in order to get better grades on their immigration score cards.

Like you said, it's been 15 years.

Yes

Waincuck is pathetic.


According to exit polls, the maga base are sixty plus fox boomer cons and a handful of incel chuds like OP. In Twenty years the party's gonna flip when all these morons die off

Yeah it's going to be a sliding scale. Even now their portion of the electorate is vanishing, and it will only speed up exponentially. The funny thing is republicans had the youth and therefor the future, and they decided to stab them in the back. I expect them to whine like little bitches when it comes time to find out.

He was probably already told he’s taking the L on that case. Thus the random rant.

(R) had the youth vote?? Is that a joke??

I think the only (R) that won/tied with the youth vote was Rodgers in MI.

The only age brackets Trump won were the over 50 vote.

Nope, its right in the polling data. Every year more young people were voting red. All they had to do is seal the deal by delivering the promised AF agenda

Polling and real life votes cast are two different things.

Why dont you post exit polls, etc showing Trump winning the younger vote, which Im assuming is under 30?

I thought you liked math bruh.

If republicans now have 100% aporoval from boomers and their performance is collapsing that means the youth/minority vote is leaving. Which means that was where republican success such as it was coming from.

If you want to wait a few months for florida and ohio to turn blue to accept it thats okay. Reality wins against cope eventually

So you have no proof to post showing Trump winning the under 30 youth vote? Got it.

The mistake youre making is youre not separating the youth/boomer vote based on race and instead grouping the boomer, etc vote as being racially monolithic. They are not.

Trump got 6% of the black boomer vote.
Trump got 41% of the latino boomer vote.
Trump got 56% of the white boomer vote.

Yes, and republican approval with that demographic is up

Republican performance is down

These things cant be true at the same time unless non boomer support is leaving.

Approval and turnout are two different things. Young people generally dont turnout.

Obviously midterms are different, but in 2024 the white 65+ vote was the same size as the under 45 vote.

Either im right, or boomers are abandoning the party, or polls are fake cope.

Under 30 turnout was higher in 2020 than 2024.

Only 47% of those under 30 voted.

White youth had the highest youth voter turnout (55%), followed by Asian (43%), Black (34%), and Latino (32%) If those minority numbers were 65% Trump wouldn't be president right now, so be happy with a low turnout...or not :) 

Hell, even white men under 30 had a higher turnout(53%) in 2020 than 2024(51%)

The States with the highest under 30 turnout, notice something?
In 2024, Minnesota (62%), Maine (60%), Michigan (58%), and Colorado (56%) had the highest youth voter turnout in the country

The lowest, again, notice something?
Oklahoma (33%), Arkansas (33%), and Louisiana (36%) had the lowest youth voter turnout in 2024

I wonder why NJ was so much closer in 2024 than 2020, maybe because they had a 20% drop in under 30 voters compared to 2020.
