The Problem with the GOP

is that serious thing are trivial to them, and trivial things are serious. COVID? Catastrophic climate change? No big deal to them(it’s a flu, fake news, etc). But Mr. Potato Head? Dr Seuss getting banned? Wearing a plastic mask? Trans people in sport? It’s then declared that it’s “cancel culture, political correctness, an attack on free speech, a threat to women and girls rights.”

The scary thing is millions of our fellow citizens will believe whatever talk radio and Faux over the CDC, FDA, WHO and literal doctors and scientists.

and it has become my firm belief that the only solution is that they'll all eventually leave the planet. About all the rest of us can do is try to limit the carnage they leave behind when they face their judgement day with Jesus.
