The Republican party has been fascist not conservative since Mitch McConnell committed to blockading Congress after the passage of Obamacare. There is no conservative party anymore, just a label for marketers to buy your vote with. Both parties have been undermined and hollowed out by dark money, but Republicans embraced it willingly while Democrats are barely managing to keep up, with the help of money from the same donors who contribute to Republicans.
McConnell just endorsed Trump for president in case you don’t believe me. Americans need to prepare to fully exercise our rights.
People need to take a step back and really LOOK at what their chosen candidate represents. Trump isn’t the same as republicans from decades past. He isn’t going to defend the Constitution. He’s going to wipe his ass with it.
It’s okay if republicans can’t bring themselves to vote for someone from another party. We understand. Just stay home. Don’t elect a dictator because of inertia.
Trump isn’t the same as republicans from decades past
He really really is though, we’ve just been kidding ourselves about how fucked the Republican party’s been. Goldwater was dog whistling at klan members to turn out the vote in the mid 60s, Nixon conspired with a foreign government to sabotage the USs foreign policy when he was still a candidate in the late 60s, McCarthy led a reign of terror in the 50s that destroyed people’s careers and lives for bullshit reasons, etc.
The party lost its mind because the Great Depression and New Deal just totally repudiated their ideology and they can’t face that truth, so they have resorted to more and more extreme measures to ignore reality and cook up conspiracy theories, and it went past the point where we can tolerate it decades ago.
Most people didn’t realize that until Trump happened. Most politicians are liars and criminals, to an extent, and government has always been kinda messed up. My point is that this time, it isn’t just more of the same. Trump is a genuine threat to our democracy.
