People Explain Which Things Republicans And Democrats Do Actually Agree On

Voted printed papers on white surface

Democrats and Republicans are as different as day and night (or donkeys and elephants).

They have different views on big issues, from education to foreign affairs. Have you ever seen a political debate in which one candidate declares that they agree with the other? You'd be hard-pressed to!

However, there are certain things that Democrats and Republicans do agree on, from their views on voters to their views on their careers.

Curious about what those things may be, Redditor Reddit807 asked:

"What's something Democrats and Republicans 100% agree on?"

Poor Opinion Of Voters

"Voters are something to be exploited and not individual human beings with rights and needs."

– sans-forme

"That voters are stupid and have short memories"

– dpalmer4444

Not Politics, But Still Agreement

"Warm brownies with cold ice cream is delicious"

– eschuylerhamilton

"Caillou sucks"

– Ivor79

"Pineapple does not belong on pizza"

– UN_Weapons_inspector

"And Betty White RIP"

– Americium_Yttrium

Pick Me...Again!

Two Parties Are Enough

"That they dont want a 3rd party to break up their monopoly."

– Urbanredneck2

"no 3rd party will be allowed the means to compete"

– Pepe_Frogger

Changing Timings

"Eliminating Daylight savings time. Passed the Senate unanimously and awaiting a House vote and Biden signature. It's not much, but we'll take a win where we can."

– AldoRaineClone

"Getting rid of daylight savings time"

– badger7477

"Technically they're eliminating standard time and making daylight savings time permanent"

– icecoaster1319

Equal Enemies

"The other side is evil and wants to ruin the country"

​Irresponsibility

"Lying and empty promises are the best policy."

Money, Money, Money

"Both sides love money and doing whatever they can to get more of it from their respective donors (only constituents that matter). Both sides will do anything to keep those spots and keep getting rich as hell off less than 200k/year."

– unknown1310P1

What The Problems Are

"Everyone agrees on 95% of WHAT the problems are."

"The problem is that no one wants to compromise on their solution and/or their solution is so f**ked up that compromise is impossible."

– SpaceBoJangles

Forever And Ever

"Term limits"

– SophisticatedPickle

"Neither side wants term limits for the House and Congress, but I think most Americans want them."

– Yayhoo0978

I guess anyone can find common ground, even if it's not exactly good common ground.

While it is important to know what each party believes and what they agree on, it's equally, if not more important, what you believe. After all, you're the one doing the voting!

Working Mom Gets Emotional After Realizing She's Missing All Her Baby's Major Milestones

Anyone who has raised children or is regularly around children can attest that they truly do grow up so fast.

That's what makes it so hard for new parents to go back to work after having a baby. It's not necessarily balancing the new responsibilities of parenthood with their preexisting responsibilities as a working adult, in an office and at home. It's the fact that they're going to miss out on some of the first moments and milestones with their children, which they can't ever get back.
