I heard somewhere that he will likely change his party before the next election.

Yes! Thank you!

Agreed.

Joe always does this. He says stuff that makes you think he wants to vote to help Democratic causes, but then he doesn't and double talks around it after the causes fail. He really is an asshole in a right wingnut 'Republican way. He just doesn't own up to it. He plays in the middle like a double agent but he really ends up killing only one side.

No, I believe it is 1884.

@dalefvictor I'd peg it even farther back but yeah, reeeelly stupid thinking.

They want far more than that, once you establish one set of controls as to who governs the reproductive rights of other people, its only a hop skip and a jump to deciding who will be allowed to breed at all.
The USA already tried this back in the early 30s and 40s, with compulsory sterilisation of the mentally ill and disabled in over 30 states between 1920 and 1945.
In Delaware alone, during the peak period of sterilisations (late 1920s to late 1930s), the average rate was 18 people per hundred thousand people per year (mostly women). That is in one state, compare that to Nazi Germany where the rate in the period 1934-1945 for the whole country including Austria and the other greater German provinces including the concentration camps was 75-80 sterilizations per year per 100,000 people.
One state was compulsory sterilising it's own people at a rate equal to 25% of an entire empire.
The exact amounts of "Stock improving" sterilisations perpetrated in the USA is unknown as many of the 30+ states participating destroyed the records (and in some cases outright denied participation) of their atrocities when it was revealed that the same atrocities were being used for ethnic cleansing in Fascist Europe.

Eugenics 101

They will win, showing us what our politicians are, and probably start a civil war.

@dalefvictor Governments love wars, they allow for the abolition of no end of inconvenient civil rights, the imposition of massive amounts of security, the imposition of many and profligate "patriotic" taxes and end to workers rights, conscription of slave labour, massive profiteering and the convenient disappearance of campaigners, protesters and political opponents.
And once the conflict is over the slow, decades long and expensive, resumption of "normal" freedoms and ways of life requiring austerity and hardships that can all be blames on "the Enemy" for at least three generations.
