I would feel sorry for those people who believe the GOP is actually a “conservative” party led by patriots. But I dont. People that gullible and/or ignorant are getting exactly what they deserve.
One of the Soviet satellite states (I forget which one) had for a time something called the Peasant Party. The Peasant Party was the token opposition party to the Communist Party. The communists won every rigged election, of course. But no one should complain about that because there was an opposition.
The GOP is becoming our country’s version of the Peasant Party.
