Today's Republican Party is building a political bomb -- and the ingredients for the explosive concoction are being mixed before our eyes. When it all blows up -- and it will, unless the party changes course soon -- the result will be not just rhetorical extremism but could well include real violence.

A chilling new poll by PRRI, the Public Religion Research Institute, found that nearly one in four Republicans (that's tens of millions of people) believe the QAnon mythology that "the government, media, and financial worlds in the US are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles."

CNN? Seriously? I think not. Not a credible news source but an excellent propaganda machine. Goebbels would be proud.

Won’t be long until the Media begins to depict Conservatives as rats and vermin.

What an evil projection of hateful fantasy is this repulsive screed from CNN.

Egads.

In response to the peaceful protesters supported by Democrats.

And not a peep about the anti-American, communist Democratic Party being taken over.

The Democrats are an international Socialist Party, ie. Communist. They don’t even have the partly redeeming virtue of patriotism.

This is no fringe cult. The number of people believing these and other outlandish QAnon conspiracies is enormous.

Well, in a free and open society, if enormous numbers of people had such a suspicion, you might expect the DOJ, the FBI, and Congress to perform some sort of actual investigation into people like Hillary Clinton, Epstein, Hunter Biden, etc. At least carry out an honest investigation to put peoples’ minds to rest that, of course we are not ruled by Satan worshipping pedophiles!

But, on the other hand, if the government desperately tries to squash any sort of honest investigation, and instead persecutes the people who ask for honest investigations, that sort of leads one to think that we may be ruled by Satan worshipping pedophiles

85 percent of Democrats believe what they are told by CNN. Who is more gullible?

With things like police assassinations, autonomous zones, looting, riots and murder?

Oh wait, that's just a peaceful protest when Lefties do it.

What they are most concerned about is that the takeover of the GOP by TransRepublicans might be reversed.
