John Boehner Unchained

[unblock]

34. Sure he wants to "win", but what's "winning" to him?

His entrance into politics was based on treating an incredibly accomplished black president as a non-American; he ran a campaign focused mostly on misogyny, racism, and xenophobia; and his tweets and agenda are all about insulting non-whites, non-christians, etc., and undoing the legacy of a black president.

That's his agenda, that's his ideology, and a "win" is anything that furthers that. Even the fact that he didn't make tax cuts a priority shows he cared more about these other things.

Now it's true that he doesn't understand many details and doesn't care about many issues one would expect a president to care about, but when he changes his mind on such things, that's not a ideological change. That's either stupidity or just that he doesn't care if it's not tied to a white supremacy matter.
