2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe GOP's Rotten Core
The party of wealthy old white males and the working-class followers that are duped by the corporate media.
The sucking up of our tax dollars to provide welfare to the military/industrial/complex, the vaginal probes, "legitimate rape", the electrified fence ideas, the privatization schemes of our Commons to benefit the Corporate State.
Yeah, the GOP has some image work to do but their rotten core remains.
