jump off the conspiracy bus now. Shameless, feckless, corrupt, racists, spineless, and most of all “UnAmerican”
is the only way to describe the Republican Party. We are living a dystopian nightmare where a once noble and grand democracy is descending rapidly into a kleptocracy brought about by 30 years of right wing propaganda, Christian Fundamentalism, aided and abetted by Russia. Hillary was prescient when she describes a right-wing conspiracy over 30 years ago. And here we are left with a SCOTUS that if not changed will rollback fundamental rights even more for the next 40 years or more. My hope with Hillary was in her SCOTUS picks that would leave our country in good hands for the rest of my life and most of my kids. Now where is the “hope” to come from, who will save our country. Who is the next Teddy or Franklin Roosevelt to take up the fight for soul of our country. I thought Obama was gonna be that guy and while I love him, I can now see he was far too moderate and decent to do what needs to be done. That is stomping out the Republican Party. It’s gonna come down to either our view of the country or the Republicans view and so far they have proved far more effective at deflecting and diverting the attention of Americans who believe that CRT is really a thing and Democrats are baby killing predators. The spectacle of 1/6 and it’s acceptance as ordinary political activism proves that American politics is sick I just hope there is a cure to what is killing our Democracy.
