MeneMeneTekelUpharsin : any perversion of any kind being accepted, advocated, defended, demanded is the TOTAL agenda of the Democrat Party and,
unfortunately, many Republicans. NOTHING else matters to them.
All of this portends the eventual downfall of this nation."

Ever notice that no matter how Conservative a Repubbie is, once they get to Washington D.C., they get co-opted ?
They gradually "sell out" to the existing Washington establishment, ..and get compromised.
That's how the "UniParty", or what we call "The SWAMP", survives from one administration to another.

All Republirats are co-opted. At the state level how many of these aholes have stopped funding ANY school system or university teaching PC and racist crap, even though they are in the majority.

Republirats are owned just as much as the Democraps.

Profoundly true. The new arrivals quickly get accustomed to all the perks, benefits, power and status of life in DC. Once they get there they never want to leave.

This phenomena actually afflicts members of both parties and used to be known as “Potomac Fever”.

That said, nowadays money is so important to campaigns that the party organs and K-Street have enormous influence on members. Once they get to DC their dependence on inflows of money converts politicians into pliable tools of the ubiquitous moneyed interests that infest the Swamp and who constantly demand favors in return for their financial support.

Such corruption is now permanently ingrained in the Washington culture which explains why so many well intentioned people get co-opted.

(No matter who we elect the system works tirelessly and insidiously to turn them into reliable Swamp supporters. Very few can resist the siren call of money.)
