MODERATORS
 

Fifty-eight percent of GOP voters said in the new survey convicted felons should be allowed to become president if they are elected. YouGov noted that just 17 percent of Republicans held that opinion in April.

In February, 34 percent of GOP voters said criminality was among their least desired traits. Now, 19 percent say the same.

Incredible.

Really, they're much more open to change than us stodgy Progressives are; they'll literally change their basic morals in a matter of months! (White) Crime? No problem! Police? First they're friends, then after J6 they're fascists, then after the campus protests they're friends again! If Jesus ever comes back (and they can't kill him), they'll change their tune on him as well!

Us damn LIbRuLs on the other hand are so stick-in-the-mud, we won't even go along with one little genocide, even if our Boss says it's necessary!

Their morals didn't really change though did they? :( They've always been what they are. It's just that the words that come out of their mouths don't line up with how they act or what they believe, or even reality, a lot of the time.

Their only real view is that They are Right and Good, and Others are Wrong and Bad.

Really just further clarification on which laws should protect, but not bind, their in-group.
