I remember the first protest marches by what came to be known as the “Tea Party”! Most of their signs dealt with ‘fiscal responsibility’ and , yes, even at the outset there were more than a few with openly racist connotations – in truth the initial protest marchers looked to be as comfortable wearings hoods and bedsheets as they were in street clothes.
The only redeeming virtue of the political Right is that, finally, with the election of Donald John Trump, they no longer feel the need to cloak their true intentions behind a mask of ‘noble goals’!
The republicans have proven (and are STILL proving) that they have no clue on how to govern on ANY level – their ENTIRE legislative repertoire consists of variations on the theme of, “No!” They have NO INTENTION of EVER helping anyone do anything because their entire political philosophy consists of the outright rejection of ANY idea that requires them to ‘help’ anyone who can’t afford to pay for that help, in some way!
Republicans have finally displayed their true colors, their political philosophy has boiled itself down to “Whatever It Takes to Win” and they have finally ‘schucked’ the mantle of “Family Values” and “Moral Integrity” which caused so much pain to its members as they attempted to wrap themselves in the Republican “holier than Thou” garment while continuing to live in their private ‘cesspools’ of greed and moral turpitude. It HAS to be liberating to finally acknowledge that they do not occupy any kind of ‘high ground’ at all! Welcome to Reality, G.O.P.! The harsh glare of the Real World is blinding, at first – but you’ll get used to it (eventually).
