The GOP is now a party of barbarians for the most part and should be treated as such. Many IMO are

treasonous. Most only care about money and power, and will run over their supporters to achieve money and power. We can see that now with some companies closing and layoffs/lost jobs. The dems need to message what the GOP leadership is made of every time they get a chance. Short succinct spot ads should start running asap to emphasize the GOP barbarous acts and failures.

disorder mixed in with sociopathic and sadistic behavior. Sadly in our runaway capitalistic society we call this success and often reward it handsomely.

Their level of pathology is a danger to us all. They will do anything and everything to increase their wealth. Nothing is off-limits.

The Dems do need to message it but it will probably fall on deaf ears, blind eyes, and thoughtless minds. For the deplorables who are Fux Ruse devotees to wake up and smell the coffee they need to have it hit them personally, blatantly and consistently over a non stop period of time (sort of like a Blitzkrieg). Just bombard them with cuts to their own jobs, savings, healthcare, taxes, etc. They think it sucks now for them economically (and it does...I am suffering big time in many ways) but apparently they aren't hurting under their Dear Leader. This is an excellent article....

I sent it to my sister and she found it interesting and "food for thought". It is good to get other perspectives but this article is a little scary and depressing in a way.
