I was just joking or or maybe being cynical (~=german humour ) when saying i understood what the US 'system' is about, after watching parts of the public roundup

I understand it as follows: The "Republicans" (whatever this really means, or what the party stands for) is indeed a bunch of individuals, who maybe share some basic interests, but who are egoistic enough (not meant negative here) to speak out what they think is the truth, even if deviating from the current party 'guidance'. Which is why the Republicans are hard to define, it very much depends on the person, not party doctrine.

I think this is pretty good and straightforward or even honest, but it sure does not help the 'party', as an organisation, to get much votes.

Personally, i think i would be more democrat in the US thinking of mindset, but the death of democracy is to stand back for 'the greater good'. Sometimes it is good to change political parties, just for letting the 'vote loser' define themselves again.

Dont know if i described that right

Greetings,
