continually deteriorated to the point where the current foul members whose prideful scorn and hatred for what America strives for is openly practiced. Our values are ridiculed and desecrated under the entitled and greed driven ego of its elected officials and their ugly constituents. They don’t even attempt to hide the foulness.

The damage Republicans have caused to our country is absolutely horrid and rotting to our soul. The scum on their pond is several feet thick.

Republicans don’t.give.a.damn.

That’s it, in a nutshell (or a talking point).

Republicans DON’T want to help you.

They don’t want to help ANYBODY, unless they’re rich and don’t want to pay their fair share of taxes - because THEY TOO don’t want to help anybody.

Pass it on!

On edit - that old Biblical story about Cain and Abel and the whole “am I my brother’s keeper?” thing just popped up in the back of my mind.

wealthy donors. They aren't in politics to serve the public, they are there for the power and money.

If you like that format, and are not familiar with his work, you might check it out. He certainly hit the nail on the head this time.

the GOP to help people. Many republican voters would gladly reject help and die if it meant 'others' don't get that help either. That's where we are in America.

They don't care about the country. They don't care about American democracy. They aren't patriotic. They don't care about common decency. Hell, they don't even care about the dumb rubes who support them. They care only about themselves. Not primarily. Not some of the time. They ONLY care about themselves. All decent Republicans left long ago. What's left are the dregs. They are the epitome of evil.

There are no good Republicans. Repeat after me...there...are...no...good...republicans. Period. End of transmission.
