Spreading fear, demonizing the other and aggrandizing ignorance and disinformation ("It's a beautiful word." -DJT) compromise their platform.<br /><br />Anti-maskers/vaxxers are a curious lot. I know two who are Not Republicans, and their belief systems as to what Covid actually is varies seasonally. Outright hoax, wet market consequence, accidentally released bio weapon (which I'm perfectly willing to believe provided the evidence), deliberately released bio weapon, New World Order political plot... take your pick- they're all equally valid and totally interchangeable.

So, what do they want? <br /><br />They have slowly added a lot of crazy people to their big-tent and now the crazies outnumber the normals. Racists, fascists, conspiracy theorists find common cause with the GOP. That alone should shock people to their senses but it does not. Fear of losing power and relevance drives the ticket. They don't care what they have to do to get people to vote for them. Notice, they don't care what people say they will do...they care what they do. Trump proved that evangelicals, largely, would back an immoral (if not amoral) man if they were directly rewarded. They actually voted. Transactional politics. So, we will continue to see this play out until a new generation of voters come into play. Those people will have to vote though. If they do, the GOP has deep, deep problems. matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00169208609248073266noreply@blogger.com
