In the belly of the beast

Yes, Virginia, this is the republican party

Take a good look at the picture at the top--it's a shot from yesterday's White Nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in protest of the removal of a statue of a traitorous racist, Robert E. Lee.

It is also a picture of today's republican party.  Not sure about that?  Among the people "representing" us in Washington, D.C. are a man voted down for a federal judgeship because of his racist views (Attorney General Jeff Sessions), a White Nationalist (Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon), and a Nazi sympathizer (Trump adviser Sebastien Gorka).  We also have Trump, who singled out Latinos again and again as being murderers and rapists.

Still don't believe it?  Watch how many prominent republicans (McConnell, Ryan, virtually any Senator, or former major candidate like McCain or Romney) condemn an overtly racist rally.

There will not be a single one--because they don't want to piss off their base.

Losing elections to these people is not an option.

Fuck Donald Trump,
