Would You Switch Political Parties for 1 Million Dollars?

[ChumpDumper]

I'm not going to explicitly review my voting record with you.

Name one.

[Spurtacular]

Name one.

We've been down this road before. I went over it with you already.

[hater]

How are they "rightwing"?

They cant even say healthcare for all outoud

[ChumpDumper]

You never named anyone.

Name one non-Republican you voted for in a partisan election.

That's different from saying what party affiliations I voted for, philodumper.

[spurraider21]

its a difficult call. i want to believe that i'd say no...and maybe i'd be able to easily say no 20-30 years from now, but right now? def have to think about it

[Spurtacular]

Pretty pathetic answer. I don't think any so-called rightwinger would tell you they relate to that.

All you have to do is name one non-Republican you voted for in a partisan election.

Or fold.

20-30 years from now, you'd likely only be more inclined to take the money because you'd be voting for the other guys in less elections and ultimately helping them less.

not really... in 20-30 years a million dollars might also mean a lot less to me than it does now (not referring to inflation, even if we adjust it)

You can comfort yourself all you want.

My congressman is Republican. I did not vote for him. That should make it clear that I'm not de facto republican by the definition you put forth.

did you vote for his opponent in the general election?

If it was adjusted for inflation, it would be much easier imo, even if you were living a comfortable life.

The only exception might be if your livelihood was based on being politically vocal.

i edited my quote, i'm even adjusting for inflation. an influx of cash would mean a lot less to me if i'm already somewhat well off and in a more stable financial condition that i'm in now

[Spurtacular]

did you vote for his opponent in the general election?

Yes.

If you would do it now, your lofty principles are not what you'd like to think they are and you'd likely do it down the road despite an achieved comfort. It's the human condition to look out for one's standard of living. If you're above it somehow, good on you I suppose. But I'm not sure being a quiet martyr achieves what you think it does.

Which candidate did you vote for in that election?

"Libertarian"

"Libertarian"

I've already shat on your de facto republican narrative (again), so now you need to disregard and move on to your next tiny battle.

[ChumpDumper]

I've already shat on your de facto republican narrative

You did not.

What was the affiliation of the candidate you voted for?

[Spurtacular]

i've always been registered with "no party preference" but for the sake of this hypothetical its pretty clear that you would take 1 million to always vote democrat and the opposite for me

Fair enough. I understand the dilemma. One is for comfort and one is for the ideal of freedom of will. You and I may be above it. Kori and Chris and TGY might be as well. But for the rest of the chumpette faction outside of you, not seeing it.

[Spurtacular]

You did not.

What was the affiliation of the candidate you voted for?

Sure I did. Review the transcript.

Question still pending. How long have you been registered Democrat now?

[ChumpDumper]

Sure I did.

No.


What was the affiliation of the candidate you voted for?

[ChumpDumper]

Question still pending. How long have you been registered Democrat now?

I said I am NOT a registered Democrat.

You're an idiot.

[Spurtacular]

I said I am NOT a registered Democrat.

So you're just a de facto Democrat

[Spurtacular]

No.


What was the affiliation of the candidate you voted for?

You moved the goalposts on this, derp.
