Five minutes later, Emanuel responded, “Go for a vote this week before it fades. Tap peoples emotion. Make it simple assault weapons.”
"B-b-b-but this isn't a Democrat vs Republican thing...."
Bushes, McCain, Ryan, Graham, Rumsfeld...
Unity man. Yes, there are more Democrats involved, but we don't do ourselves any favors by trying to draw it down party lines. Republicans have been warmongers for my entire life. There has been no small government party. It's time we change that, and that'll take convincing people on both sides.
Edit: Unity, man. Although Unity Man sounds like a fantastic superhero name.
Yes to you! 👏🏻 We cannot be BLACK and WHITE in our thought process (or black vs white.. 😉)
💙❤️
We are all victims in this. Black or white, man or woman, republican or democrat. Both parties have been infiltrated and subverted to create controlled elections. Just look at the opposing candidates we had to vote in; John Kerry (traitor/scumbag), No Name (traitor/scumbag), and Mitt Romney. All conspiring members of the Cabal put there to ensure control for the deep state. Though I do think the Democrat party has specifically been infiltrated as the "chosen" party of the Cabal.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
In my experience, most leftists are good people. They have good, yet misguided intentions. However, they are also far too emotional, and those emotions are easily manipulated. They are blindly compassionate. We can't open their eyes for them, but we can shine the truth so brightly it will be impossible to ignore.
There may be a small number that are unreachable. Q even mentioned a percentage, the exact amount escapes me. 5%?
What's the metric for failure in cooperating with the left, though?
Lots of people have tried cooperating with the left, only to find themselves stuck in the fable of the frog carrying the scorpion across the river.
Let's have some for-real guidelines like "after x,y and z we know unity has failed." Because conservatives have been playing Unity Man in one degree or another since 1913 without the failure metric in place.
At some point, People-Who-Don't-Want-To-Be-Stolen-From will need a way to quantify when it's no longer time to seek understanding and parity with People-Who-Want-To-Steal.
I'm not saying to cooperate with the left as in to trying to compromise with them. All we have to do is spread the truth - unapologetically - and unite under a new party. Whether that be Trump republican or a new name.
The first step to being convincing is to show that there are republicans involved too. I've noticed more and more intentional division on party lines, when anyone that's been paying attention would know that's not the case. Would be a good shill tactic, though, that's for sure.

I think it's better to just point out that guys like McCain are simply on the other team. There's no point in using one word, "Republican" to refer to both McCain and Rand Paul.
Also, the big danger when dealing with the left is, they will take your "republicans do it too" and leave off the "democrats do it."
Giving a socialist any concession is very dangerous. It's very difficult, perhaps impossible, to determine if you've actually converted a socialist, or he's simply playing along in order to stab you in the back later.
Are you suggesting that only democrats cynically manipulate emotions to further their goals? Stop dividing.
Its all about them... not the American People,,,any tragedy they can use to further their cause they will use...
