Why are Republican politicians such dicks?

[Cyrano]

They lack sympathy, empathy and harmony with the universe. They don't give a damn about the well being of anyone, or of the Earth itself. In their lack of caring they treat their own children/grandchildren as disposable objects, and they treat their own voters as marks to be robbed every hour of every day.

What empty people they are. Their love is reserved for cash and power. Their hatred is unlimited and is loosed upon anyone, at any time, for any reason. They lack all decency and humanity.

So why do people keep voting for them? In truth, they're losing many voters who "get it." All these new state laws aren't just to suppress Democratic votes. They're to make it meaningless who votes or doesn't vote. After all, many of these laws determine who counts the votes. And it's tough to lose under those "rules."

Somehow, someway, they must be stopped. If not, democracy is over and that outcome must be fought tooth and nail. How? Any and every way possible. The Republicans have declared war on America. It's time we acted like we understand that.

4. I think a lot of it

has to do with white privilege. I see it in my own relatives. They live in a bubble insulated from the real world.

Sure, they have all gone to college and got nice jobs and make good money and live in nice homes, drive nice cars, only associate with people like themselves, and they claim it’s their right to live where they want where everyone else is just like them.

The old “it’s never happened to me, so why should I care” mentality.

Also “I like things the way they are and all these brown people and liberals want to upset my nice cushy life of privilege.” Problems with race relations? Never happens around here Climate change? I’ll be long gone before it gets real bad. Voting rights? What’s the big deal, if you really want to vote, you would abide by the new laws. I’m sick of always bending over backwards for certain people.I’m sick of the news on TV. Let’s go shopping. Etc. etc.

A right winger says “it’s never happened to me, so I don’t care.”
A liberal says, “it shouldn’t happen to anybody, and I DO care.”

5. The Trumpanzees aren't even Republicans

Republicans,though we disagreed with them, had ideas, policies and programs. They debated the issues based on what both sides recognized as established truths and facts not lies and hatched up conspiracies.

6. GWB inadvertently nailed it.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."
