I didn't mean it as a reflection on you or the sentiment you expressed. You are not wrong to think this should be a stain on the repubs. My point was simply that they do not care anymore. Or, rather, they delight in the offense we take when this sort of news comes to light. The woman in the picture (I would not call her a lady, btw) was making light of tRump's pussy grabbing statement. That was last year, and I don't think they have changed for the better. In fact, I think they have doubled down on their deplorableness.
