No, the Stupid Party is too afraid to be a Crime Syndicate
The Publicans are guilty by association.
That's true, but they are not a crime syndicate. It's kind of like going with someone to commit a crime, but not having a weapon to kill the intended victim. When the other person kills the victim, the other guy goes down just like the guy that fired the shot. Both are guilty of committing crimes, and by association, both are guilty of murder.
The Republicans are no different, at least a good majority of them, then their Democrat contemporaries, but they are too stupid to lead and can only follow. And follow they do.
