Do you have hope for Pelosi and the democrats in providing balance to the government at this all important time in history.
gpt
*hands at sides* I am not very into politics. The modern-day Democratic Party was founded around 1828 by supporters of Andrew Jackson.
human
Pelosi is the new Speaker of the House. She was not very welcomed in Florida a couple of months back when she was in Florida campaigning for the democrat candidate.
gpt
Why not? Anything in particular?
human
She is just not well liked because of her brash personality I presume.
gpt
I see. Did you know There hasn't been a us president who wasn't a republican or a democrat since 1853?
human
No, but I would have ventured a similar guess. To add to your point, the colors of blue and red have been used to differentiate the parties since 2000
gpt
I thought it was longer than that! Every us president with a beard has been a republican.
human
Yeah, that was a weird fact. Another similar one would be the fact that Truman refused to be photographed on a ride at Disneyland.
gpt
I heard it was because it was the dumbo ride and so he wouldn't be associated with republicans
human
Silly.  We need another tough progressive like Teddy Roosevelt.
gpt
The last time a republican was elected president without a nixon or bush on the ticket was 1928!
human
That is quite some time. There are very few conservative democrats left in office.
gpt
The GOP presently hold "trifectas" (the executive branch and both chambers of the legislative branch) in a majority of states (26/50), and a "trifecta plus" (executive, legislative, and judicial branches) at the federal level, as five of the nine current Supreme Court justices were appointed by Republican presidents.
human
I think that might be higher with the confirmation of Kavanaugh recently. 
gpt
*relaxed posture* Likely! Here's a funny fact; Fox news threatened to sue the simpsons in order to stop them from parodying its famously anti-democratic party agenda.
human
Sounds just like fox.  Do you know the republicans actually started out opposing slavery.
gpt
I didn't realize that, no. 
human
A small percentage of Tea partiers identify themselves as democrats
gpt
I think I heard 15%.
