Republicans in my area are getting crazier than ever

We now have in our little county a Commissioner who is running on a platform of God and Guns. Literally; God and Guns. We already have three/three Republicans as Commissioners.

In addition, Doug Lamborn, one of the worst Repbulicans in Congress is being challanged in a primary by a guy who should be in a padded cell. Six years ago, when Lamborn won his seat, he won the nomination in a primary from two "moderate" Republicans, and I though our GOP had gone nuts then.

Is there an end in sight? I'm begining to think there is not.

and end up splitting their party, but it hasn't happened yet so I don't know.


If they keep pushing further and further right, eventually people have to get it, right?

I wonder: why do people who have God on their side even need guns? God will protect them.
