20. I think GOP has recruited flawed candidates forever

I think every Republican has some skeletons. I think that's why someone recruited them to run initially. When they were recruited they thought it was because they spoke well or looked good or had a good business background. Then one day their arm was twisted behind their back on an important issue and they were told they would vote as expected on issue cuz of skeleton abc. They are then periodically reminded of skeleton abc or MORE to keep them in line. This is why the GOP as a party won't be in favor of LGBTQ, marijuana reform, etc. Because they use it as blackmail to keep members in line.
