The only people who are actually people, as far as they're concerned (as opposed to the rest of us, humanoid barnyard animals).

you beat me to it..........

Just like Trump and The RepubliCONs, a campaign by the Dems should start immediately to obliterate his or her sorry ass from the lineup.....

Oh, I get it: he thinks that by pandering to all the right-wing yokels in his district, he'll somehow endear himself to them (ha!).

As if any of them would vote for him no matter what he does!

All he's doing, is alienating the Democrats in his district who did count on him.

Never let the public forget, Democrats were there, they delivered good government and policies that support people, after QRepublicans tried to overthrow the government. We have drawn an historic contrast.

Otherwise we are annoying expendable creatures that don’t have a right to live, and they love COVID because they can indirectly (and with impunity) get rid of many of us.

For one reason. To pay taxes for their salaries, perks and military. They pay zero, their donors pay zero so us little people got to foot the bill. No aid or money for us, just pay them damn taxes for them.

How can you keep the peasants downtrodden if you HELP them?

How can Republicans keep their position of superiority if you start to elevate some of the peasants out of poverty?

Whatever will they expect next? Affordable health care, infrastructure improvements, schools that educate? A decent, living wage?

The Republican Party - one of the most backward, anti-social political parties in the history of mankind!
(Possibly not the worst, but close.)

On their demise, may the history books be VERY unkind to them!
