  2. A third of America has been successfully Talibinized, thanks to Reich-wing plutocrats, Reich-wing media, Reich-wing demagogues, and Reich-wing politicians. Republican cult is the new ISIS. Call them Talibangelicals, ISIS-KKK, Y'all Qaeda, Vanilla ISIS, Reich-whingers (the original English word for whiners), or QaBomb----they're all part and parcel of the current lunatic Reich-wing GOP. Republican politicians are appeasing fascist, seditious terrorists...because that's their voter base, radicalization and extremism is what they have cultivated, nourished, nurtured, exploited, and profited from for four decades. Reich-wing politicians, plutocrats, demagogues, media, white nationalist, Christian nationalist religious, sovereign citizens and Qanon leaders thought they could ride the tiger, too arrogant, greedy, and stupid to foresee that master would become slave, and the beast they created would soon come to consume them.

  3. Use 'em, abuse 'em, and lose 'em is Trump's MO, but Republicans aren't the smartest bunch. Even as Toxic Trump is laughing at all the gullible suckers he's grifting money from, Republicans keep paying homage and donations to him, anyway. The Republican sheep have already been fleeced, but they're sticking around to get slaughtered; muttons gluttons for punishment.

  4. "Call this civic barbarism. Instead of promoting the values of responsible citizenship, Trump, Republican leadership, and their media enablers have elevated and blessed the very worst among us. They are making many Americans less suited for self-government and more dangerous to their neighbors. And they are doing so for the reason some of the Founders most feared: To lead the mob against true democracy." ~ Michael Gerson, from 'Trumpism is American Fascism' (NOTE: Gerson is a staunch life-long conservative, who served as former President George W. Bush's chief speech writer.)

  5.  @abigailhowe8302  ~ Don't know of anyone, regardless of their political ideology or affiliation, who thinks that men can have babies. I reported that comment as hate speech as soon as it was posted and, as too seldom happens, it appears it was rightly removed by Google. It's just a fallacious trope propagated by Russian and Reich-wing trolls to ignite culture wars, divide Americans, weaken America. It seems the Republican cult (largely created, enabled and empowered by Reich-wing politicians, Reich-wing media, Reich-wing demagogues and Reich-wing Christian nationalists) doesn't realize or care that they have been doing----and continue doing----the dirty work of America's enemies for them. The GOP can no longer be defined as "conservative," anymore, albeit there is still a minority of traditional conservatives in the party who aren't part of the cult insanity. Some of them have left the GOP, and the rest have been marginalized. What was once mainstream conservatism has become the fringe in the GOP, which has moved to the radical, extremist right. It didn't happen overnight, and it didn't start with Trump, who only exploited and exacerbated the destructive Reich-wing Orwellian machine the GOP had built and cultivated for decades. For those of us old enough, what has been witnessed over the past four decades plus is a gradual corruption, erosion, and deterioration of the GOP to its present deplorable state, which no longer represents a loyal opposition political party. Even more troubling, like some out-of-control drug addict or alcoholic, the GOP hasn't hit rock bottom yet; it's descent has become only more precipitous. It is dragging this country down with it, and could well prove the ruin of us all. Anyway, appreciated your replies here, even though my comment reflects my true feelings on trying to reason with people in the Republican cult. Will sometimes reply myself to some of those with older YouTube accounts that are not obvious trolls, try to reason with them, but very rarely meet with any success. Of course, it is important that people of reason and decency continue to speak out, and continue to do so via comments in online forums and through other means. But I no longer waste much time on fools and trolls. Instead, have found it useful and much more enjoyable to engage with rational people like yourself, ignoring the unruly little children with little minds clamoring for attention.
