Why are Republicans such dicks? (Part 729)

It’s not just the orange creature in the White House. It’s the entire Republican Party. Seems there’s not much dickishness they don’t practice:

O Make people on food stamps work – disabled, old, -- it doesn’t matter.

O Women and their bodies are property.

O Keep browns and non-Christians from immigrating. They’re all “THEMS.”

O Be the party of white supremacism. Millions will vote Republican.

O Infer that God is a white Republican man. Countless voters already believe it.

O Support the police. They keep the “THEMS” in line.

O Wrap Republicanism in the flag. Love the military. Fuck the vets.

O Preach family values. Turn ICE loose on families.

O No taxes for the rich and businesses. Fuck everyone else.

O Love the Constitution. Let an insane president run amok.

Republicans have raised hypocrisy to an art form. And who knew there were so many Americans willing to buy the crap they peddle? Who knew there were so many who were willing to vote for people who screw them? Who knew there was so much hate out there, and that it was so easy to tap into?

What kind of decent, moral, semi-aware person could ever vote for a Republican?
