    As a 55 year old white man growing up in the deeeep south my father told me when I was a child Democrats were for us the working people and Republicans were for the rich. That changed when Jimmy Carter destroyed the country and my father became a Republican to support Ronald Reagan.

      Grew up in California during the Reagan days but I got sucked in by Clinton's Rock The Vote and then voted for Obama's first term too. By Os 2nd term I registered non-affiliated. Wasn't until Trump that I felt real change was actually possible.

      Same here! I am a 59 year old white woman, grew up in Georgia, and my father, freshly home from Vietnam in 1971, came back to his little hometown and got involved in local politics as a Republican. Everyone thought he was crazy, they all believed Democrats are for the little guy, etc...but he tried and tried to talk sense into people. Carter was Governor of Georgia then and I distinctly remember the night he was elected Governor, both my parents had campaigned against him, my mother sat in the middle of our living room floor and cried. Then Carter was elected President and all his friends became Republicans.

    This is so relatable as a Black man! I was always told Republicans are racists! And that Democrats were good people! Every Democrat or liberal I came across has always treated me as a victim and or stereotype! Always referred to me in terms of my skin color like for instance “I know that it must be hard for you as a Black Man in America!” Over the last few years I noticed that I climbed outta my victim hood after being brainwashed that I need to be Democrat to succeed in life as a Black person! Switching over to Red as a Republican is the best decision I’ve made! “I can be just as successful despite my skin color!” I’M FREE!

      Amazing testimony! As a Latino person, people always told me colored people only vote democrat. I was raised to work hard, belive in God, treat people with love and respect. I was 18 voted democrat once. Once I started learning how democrats founded the KKK, and other racist organizations i was floored. In my job working democrats always said I was lucky to get where I was because of the color of my skin. Not my hard work, college, doing interviews etc...I was treated differently because I thought differently from people like me. Once I learned what conservative stood for,I voted red. Love your country respect people, love God, and hard work. All these gifts God gave us. Will pray for you to know the truth, and find it like I did. Conservative for life.

    yeah as a LATINO (even though it doesn't matter) I was always brought up to be a Democrat. As a Christian man I realize that my beliefs did not match up with the LEFT. I converted in 2017 after talking to my pastor and then watching Officer TATUM videos on how he left the left. God Bless you all.

I remember thinking we had been taught how wonderful government everything is and yet my taxes go up. Government supposedly solves problems and yet my taxes increase… this didn’t make sense. If government solves problems then taxes should go down. That was the first crack in my armor.
    A few years later I stumbled across a book called The Virtue of Selfishness. In that book there is a chapter on The Nature of Government. Once I read that my life changed totally.

      Most people that didn't follow Trump or watched various political commentaries(sp), weren't really aware that when he attacked someone it was because they attacked him first. They expected that since he turned Republican he was just going to "turn the other cheek or take the high road" like most of us were taught since young. Boy were they wrong.
      Also, the man was a genius, he got people that didn't get politics talking about things going on, policies in place and he didn't even have to pay for ads, since he would say something "different " and the media would go seeee orange man bad. When in fact it made people go look for the whole clips. Especially after the Sandman incident.
      Woopie Goldberg even employed him for a movie once... yet apparently she never knew he was a racist/misogynistic/homophobe.... when I heard that I started laughing, cause if he was, he wouldn't have worked for a black woman lol.
      Let alone married strong independent, intelligent, foreign women whom he'd leave in charge of his businesses. Actions spoke louder than words and Dems got scared cause he was doing everything or tried to do everything he promised. And they haven't done crap for the people that keep putting their faiths into them.
      keep watching Trump, if he talks shit about someone, look for a clip of that person attacking him and you'll start seeing a trend.

Now, Christianity and "conservative" is synonymous with Republican and that wasn't supposed to happen. Before the 1980s...you ccould still be socially moderate but be fiscally conservative. That's what appealed to Republicans in the first place. They didn't care so much about people's religious beliefs...as long as you were on the same page when it came to fiscal conservatism.

As a young adult all I saw from the Dems was more and more enabling and control. I’ve know I was conservative in my opinions but it wasn’t until CA gov. Took my freedoms (plandemic) and like some inmates I had time to educate myself so I did research. My research led me to the fact that planned parenthood was founded by Margret Sanger a kkk member and that over 400,000 black babies have been aborted I sobbed for the genocide. I learned that in fact it was the Dems pushing abortions, the Dems that wanted to keep slavery, the Dems that are defunding law enforcement, the Dems that encourage illegal immigration, the Dems that want to give my hard earned money to people who won’t work, the Dems that won’t punish criminals, the Dems who want to buy an ev car that does more damage to our environment than a gas powered car, the Dems who want me to pay for slaves I never owned, the Dems who use my money to by needles for drug users, the Dems who want to mutilate children, the Dems who want to make pedophila legal, the Dems who encourage gender disforia (and more) all the while the Republicans do nothing to stop them.

      Republicans are hard working people that shutup and deal with BS and get the job done. Liberals cry at every convenience and want everything handed to them. That's why their voice is heard so loudly. But everyone has their breaking point and I think target (and some others) just found the republicans limits.

    I grew up the same way: "Democrats are for the people, Republicans are for the corporations".
    I woke up in 2004 when I realized that I hated George Bush and I didn't even know why. I then started paying more attention, and realized that I hated him simply because I was told to by the media. Now, I still hate Bush, but at least I know why, and it wasn't for the reasons that I was told why I should hate him. Once I opened my eyes and stopped being ignorant of politics, I learned that I was MUCH more aligned with Republicans than I ever was with Democrats - but not ALL Republicans.

      It is about the individual, not so much collective party. Republicans like McConnel, Graham, Bush, ect... are no different than Pelosi, Schumer, Biden.... all establishment.
      Meanwhile individuals like Gabbard, Yang, Paul, DeSantis, Trump.... non-establishment types to some degree... or at least not playing the game of the establishment... all become demonized by the establishment.
      But Democrats seem to have a special place in the establishment. There is a saying; "When Republicans win elections, they are in office. When Democrats win elections, they are in power." If Democrats are for the "poor", then there is no incentive to have their voters become anything other than poor, while enriching their donor base. Currently the Democrats receive the most donations from corporations than the Republicans do and the vast majority of top 100 corporations align themselves to Democrats. So much for being the party of the people.
      Bush was a Neo-Con, so was his whole group. Back before Nixon, the Neo-Cons were Democratic Socialists. Democratic Socialism is just National Socialism with better PR.

Even after showing her the FACTS like you shared of who the KayKayKay was created by etc., ,the didn’t help her.
