I defintely like the way he can boil down an argument.

He is not however, the first to say this.

Republicans are the party of the wealthy. By aligning with the Conservative movement, they are the party of hierarchy, or White, Male, Christian Supremacy.

Their policies do absolutely nothing to help the average American. All they have is to promote fear and bolster resentment. They point to vulnerable people and say, "they are taking your jobs, threatening your safety, and indoctrinating your children". All the while, the leaders and financial backers of the Republican party hoard the wealth and power in this country to themselves. They literally make people's lives less healthy, less safe, and less happy, but they are able to bank on the ignorance, fear, and anger of a group of people to keep themselves in power.
