45. Republicans are masters of self-delusion.

...and arrogance. They don't want to give an inch on anything, but when one of them gets in legal trouble, suddenly our side has to give in and pass on demanding justice in order to heal the country. Major WTF.

How can they say our country is healed, when their shenanigans are continually creating wedges between us?
