Racism, homophobia, and misogyny are apparently stronger ideologies for them than American patriotism.

Most disgusting thing I've ever heard.

Most Republicans are fine with betraying their nation as long as their private hatreds are protected and writ large by the conquering power.

At some point the Main Kompromat Tape will be made public and *45 will still be in the White House.

Both those things will be true simultaneously, and that is certainly going to be a freakish point in history. And it will happen soon.

I predict he will be dragged from the White House kicking and screaming. There is no dignity in the man, and he has won all his life by behaving badly.

Look to the rest of the Republicans to betray him all at once and far too late, and then try for a half-hearted Redemption Cycle that lasts three weeks, the same amount of time Ted Haggard needed to stop being a gay meth addict.

No boundaries and no limits leads to strange places.

New GOP Healthcare bill proposes 'rendering' of all with incomes below 30K for valuable byproducts.

Bone meal, phosphorus, calcium, leather -- human flesh makes great cattle food. Soylent Green now in bulk at Walmart! Just look at the wonderful marbling on those middle-class flank steaks at Albertson's! Organ industry in decline over market glut!

I'm only Tom-Paine half-joking, floating this idea out there as mockery but somewhat worried that Ted Cruz will pick it up and run with it.

Because they would. They absolutely would.
