12. The Republican Party is quickly devolving into
Fri Jan 12, 2018, 02:57 AM
Jan 2018

the party of your racist uncle. My god, how low can you go. Is there anything you cant defend in order to maintain the party's objectives? Defending some of the torch wielding neo-nazis, spewing chants that were straight out of 1930s Germany wasn't the low? It could somehow be rationalized?

We know who Donald Trump is. He is the son of a father who attended a klan rally. He and his farther settled with the government for housing discriminating, marking applications of people of color. Called for the prosecution of innocent people. Questioned the citizenship of the first African american present. Muslim bans, Mexican rapists and on and on.

Donald Trump is the ultimate chicken coming home to roost for the republican party. Reagan announced in Philadelphia Miss, Lee Atwater, Willie Horton, New Orleans, welfare queens, play the race card, the war on drugs, dog whistles. Trump just isn't any good at hiding it. In fact its 2018 you don't have to hide it anymore, the party of Lincoln is willing to sell bedrock values for tax cuts and deregulation.

One thing I really know is there are next to 0 republican statesmen(save Mia) or people who take their oath or duty as a co-equal branch of government, seriously, its loyalty to party first, second, third. The debasing of the presidency and the reputation of the United States be damned, how history judges me be damned.

It has reached today a "sir have you no sense of decency". which side of history do you want to be judged on moment. I got my money on Ryan, McConnell, Graham, Cornyn, etc slinking,sinking, selling out. You couldn't make a spine out of any of them. Party first, country second.

Shame on you.... and they know it too.
