The Only Thing that Motivates the Republicans Now is Racism

There I said it.

They are totally corrupt and will do anything to stay in power because of their fears.

They are afraid of people who are not white-skinned, and very afraid what will happen if they get in power.

I am white and I can see this fear all around me.

I personally don't fear that way for various reasons, but the fear is driving them crazy.

We can expect a lot more bad things to happen.
