Hey, I’m looking forward to discussing many kinds of political issues. I myself am a conservative, but I’m excited to get to hear from the other side about things we may disagree on. I think the atmosphere for conservatives on VCU has gotten better, and it’s only up from here. This platform is going to help a lot, I believe.

As of right now, yes, but that’s not a very enthusiastic yes. I believe that Trump’s loss and the storming of the Capitol by (for lack of a classier term) idiots is helping the Republican Party cleanse itself in a way. It’s waking the party up to the fact that it can’t gatekeep one way of conservatism over others. This kind of “you’re not Republi…Read More

I am apparently the first to add to this chat but I’ve never been shy before so lets get this thing rolling.

I also believe it made people more bold and confident in beliefs that would’ve otherwise been closeted. I don’t know your…Read More

I definitely agree that 2016 was a huge turning point in the social political climate. I think I would blame most of it on the news stations because they were feeding people information like “trump will never win he has a 1% chance of winning”. I think a lot of democrats thought the election would be a safe easy win for Hillary but instead Tru…Read More

As far as my political stance. I’m a Republican, if you want to get specific I’m closer to a libertarian. Very economically conservative, but I believe in rights for all and fair treatment for everyone here in the US.
In 20 years I have no clue what the political climate would be. Something I hope for is for the political climate to be more ope…Read More

I don’t identify with a political party because I don’t believe any party genuinely has the people interests first just their own. Specifically with the Republican Party as I feel like they don’t live up to their actual values. For example I don’t believe you can say that you believe in less government and then vote for laws the create voting…Read More
