My thought for today is that Republicans don't care if they're alienating young people

with their undemocratic policies, their hate policies, their theocratic policies, their oligarchic policies.

Why? Because they're working on ending democracy, anyway, and will not need those votes to seize and keep power.

There is no longer a Democracy as far as they're concerned. At this point, we're all just a disposable annoyance & as soon as we all just gtfoutta here the happier they all will be.

They are the party chock full with sociopaths narcissists,and authoritarians and their enablers.

And they care about no one but themselves.

We need to keep dark triad people away from any position of power permanently.

Why should they? They’ve learned to take full advantage of all the aspects of government that allow for minority rule, while they create some more.
That’s the scariest part - a political party that doesn’t care about the people they want to govern.

Based on what they have done and are currently doing to avoid prosecution and justice, they have remade the party into something guilty first based on a platform of deceit and denial, sleight of hand and smoke and mirrors.

They do NOTHING for anyone but themselves and the top 1%

Those who are actual conservatives without the whole aspiration to thuggery need to eject the cancer, remake their party or leave it and make a valid Independent Party.
