Think about what we have witnessed and identify one decent Republican. There is absolutely no excuse for supporting these people.

There must be some extremely low information people in this country who identify as R because of the racist culture war, propaganda, and Southern Strategy that many in the 1% foments, but are otherwise mostly decent. There's gotta be.
