Is there anything a Republica can do to lose votes?

[edhopper]

J.D. Vance has said that women need to stay in abusive, violent marriages and Herschel Walker is a certifiable fool who has fathered children with multiple women and can't complete a thought. Yet they are in a tied in their Senate races against intelligent, qualified Democrats.
Hell, even verified pedophile Roy Moore only lost by less than a point.

It makes one very cynical about a big percentage of American voters.

1. Support President Biden? nt

[edhopper]

6. Good one

and so true.

[TheBlackAdder]

26. Any Republica gets my vote.

2. Sure - talk about gun control, wave a rainbow flag, claim to be an atheist.

Guns, God, and Gays has been used as kryptonite for decades.

[Ocelot II]

3. Express compassion and support for non-white or non-straight folks?

GOP politicians can get away with anything as long as they let it be known that they hate the others.

[edhopper]

7. Has any Republican ever done that?

[RockRaven]

4. Oh, there's one thing...

Telling the truth! That sinks them every time.

[Martin Eden]

5. Tell them not to vax or mask during a pandemic

[JHB]

8. Be photographed shaking the hand of Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Obama, etc.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

9. Roe

Roe, Roe, Roe your vote
against theocracy!
Republicans revoke your rights
and kill democracy!

[LeftinOH]

10. Admit that the 2020 election wasn't stolen... n/t

[LogicFirst]

11. NO.

12. If they publicly renounce Christianity, they will lose votes.

For the record, in the New Testament both Jesus and Paul taught that divorce is wrong except in cases of adultery. Abuse and violence are not given as acceptable reasons to divorce.

[KentuckyWoman]

15. And actually it only specifies a man can divorce his wife

There is no reason a wife can divorce her husband in the bible. The only option is if she slept with another man. I assume the reason being she might be pregnant with some other man's baby. Property should not pass to the other guys' kid.

All about money ....

[Mariana]

17. Well, yes, because wives were the property of their husbands.

See the Tenth Commandment, in which God commands the people not to covet their neighbors' goods. God helpfully gives examples of property that is not to be coveted, including houses, livestock, slaves, and wives.

13. not be an asshole, traitor, criminal

[KentuckyWoman]

14. Half of voting America will vote any R you give them.

They stopped listening in 1980.

[Sugarcoated]

16. If that were true crooked Donnie would be president

There is a hard core, roughly 1/3 of the voting public that would vote any R

[walkingman]

19. !00% correct

[dwayneb]

24. And half do not vote at all

It's the 40%-50% that have decided not to participate in their own representation that got us here.

Reality is that regularly voting Democrats and Republicans are minorities, with around 25% of the voting population each, plus or minus 5% which is about the percentage that ends up deciding the Presidential.

These non-voters are who we have to reach if we have any hope in keeping our democracy. The apathetic Americans who refuse to participate in the determination of their own fate.

[edhopper]

27. Especially younger voters

if they voted in the same numbers as seniors, we would have a large Democratic majority.

[Zambero]

18. Ask Liz Cheney that question

Having the "audacity" to hold the worst president in U.S. history to account for his crimes will certainly lose her a lot of votes from within her own party. In a nutshell, doing the right thing has no appeal to the Republican base, either within their party or against the opposition.

[Novara]

20. Yes, if they act like a progressive

The base and the establishment would turn on them so fast the earth would be knocked off it's rotation.

[Sky Jewels]

21. No.

So we need to concentrate on getting more non-voters and independents and young, newly registered voters to actually cast ballots for Ds.

[Torchlight]

22. Liz Cheney appears to be doing things that loses Republican votes.

A series of acts done in a measured and judicious manner in front the country, and in doing so exposing her colleagues for what they in fact, are (degenerate liars, serial fraudsters, and creepy dude-bros). In other words, she's a republican telling a truth.

[EnergizedLib]

23. Among a certain block? No

Among the rest of us? Absolutely.

[Generic Brad]

25. Yes. I have an anecdote

I was talking to a contractor this afternoon. He told me his wife died of Covid last year and that was a wake up call for him. He said his late wife had been a big Trump supporter. Since she passed he told me he's been doing some deep thinking. He said his he and his wife were tricked. He said Trump lied to him. He said his pastor lied to him. The TN Republicans lied to him and he was finally done. Once he's done with one last big construction job, he's moving to the Philippines and giving up on America. He's already bought a home over there and will be spending his final days having fun with some of his old Army buddies.

That's two votes gone forever.

28. Why does it always seem that a deep personal loss is what it takes for Republicans to wake up?
