I concede that it is theoretically possible that some of you know "good" Republicans. I don't,

[Atticus]

but if white buffaloes and pink manta ray's can exist, I guess it's possible that there is a good person somewhere who still self-identifies as a Republican. After all, "stupid" is not the same as "bad". That said, here's what you're dealing with: after everything that Trump has done---the racism, corruption, grifting, LYING, crimes and, now, sitting on his ass and watching us die---93%!---NINETY THREE DAMN PER CENT!---of Republicans STILL support the psychopath according to a recent Gallup poll! AND---some of the remaining 7% "have no opinion"!

In my view, given the above, the mere fact that someone would continue to associate themselves with the whole Trumpian "Bizarro World" disqualifies them from the supposed "good Republican" category. They may occasionally say something reasonable or even do what is decent and honorable, but when push comes to shove---when Trump or McConnell or Koch clearly demands their unqualified loyalty---they will wet themselves rushing to "get in line".

1. Ignorance is not an excuse. I think anyone that continues to support Trump after having

witnessed the last 3.5 years has no excuse. Previously I would have given the benefit of the doubt but you can no longer deny reality. There are no good Republicans. Sadly I have several in my immediate family.

2. I would contribute thousands of dollars

to establishing a republican / libertarian colony on Mars.

But only if they ALL go... and take the White Nationalists and Nazi party members with them (if they all weren't included in registered republicans).

[Different Drummer]

4. I would be down for that.

Provided, of course, there's no oxygen on Mars.

[Ferrets are Cool]

3. There are no good repugs...

Even those that I MUST maintain a friendly atmosphere around are NOT good people. They are ONLY good to people they deem are "deserving" of their help.

[SheltieLover]

5. It is an oxymoron

Good & repub just don't go together these days. Perhaps once possible, but no longer.

6. they are extinct.

7. I came to that same conclusion in the 1990s

The era of Gingrich, Hyde, and the whole vicious hypocrisy movement.

8. I'm with you on that. n/t

9. I know 3. Believe all the small government shit. Not really religious.

All 3 plan on voting for Biden. 2 reluctantly voted for Trump in 16 the other one sat it out. They told me this unsolicited. I don’t talk politics at work but pretty sure they know by how I manage.

They are not evil men. 2 of them are not that smart.

None of them pay much attention to the news.

10. Every single one of them I know if you talk to them a while you will

discover eventually it all comes back to race. I don't know any Republican that is not a racist.

11. the only good Republicans I know

Ended up voting for Obama and never looked back - they used to tease me about being a bleeding heart liberal... NOT so much anymore '

[Jamastiene]

12. Every single Republican I have met here in Trumpland...

is a hatemonger, stupid as fuck, and is proud of being obnoxious, rude, bigoted, and willfully stupid. And by stupid, I am referring to the way it was described to me. The difference between ignorant and stupid is that ignorant people haven't been taught and don't know better. Stupid people have been clearly informed of what is correct and incorrect and continue to ignore the truth. They are willfully stupid because they KNOW better but pride themselves on being as obnoxious and rude as possible.

There are no "good" Republicans where I live. They make Trump seem moderate where I live. Even half the Democrats where I live would shock DU if you could see what they are like. If the people who are for always running Dixiecrats and conservative Democrats in the south could see what they are really like, that shit would stop, pronto. The ones where I live do some seriously fucked up, bigoted shit, including lying directly to Jessie Jackson's face about a racist policy that burned 25 people alive.....re: Imperial Foods Fire and Hamlet's mayor, who lied to Jessie Jackson about the racism that caused those doors to be locked in the first place. I will never forgive her for that.
