that was similar.

What do we do with the Republicans when the Trump drug wears off?

I got roasted bad for suggesting that something had to be done with them.

Sure Republican officials are horrible and deserve to be imprisoned, but not all voters in the R world a horrible people. Besides which, even if they are horrible people, they are still going to exist when all of this is done, so, what to do? Sure don't want them voting Republican again, eh?

Move who you can move with reason and logic, hope some of the rest get Obama'd with some new charismatic candidate, and leave the rest to themselves.
