| Da assholes! Da assholes! |
New York Times opinion writer Thomas Friedman recently wrote that despite the passage of time since January 6th, when republicans tried to overturn a legitimate election simply because they didn't like the outcome, that America is still in dire straits. And that if republicans don't come to their senses, we're facing a political civil war.
Not sure which planet Friedman has been living on for the last thirty years, but the republican party has been swan diving down the rabbit hole since at least Ronald Reagan. With each progression from Reagan to George W. Bush to Donald Trump the party has gotten farther and farther away from any semblance of respect for our ideals or our institutions or, for that matter, our people. They've done nothing but coarsen our political discourse and have given up any semblance of being anything other than a party of racists whose only agenda is holding onto power so they can continue to make the rich richer. They will not be coming to their senses.
Ever.
No, if America is to survive it's going to be up to the Democratic Party to continue to hold the White House, Senate, and House and to double down on their agenda that delivers a better financial future, the freedom to be who you are, and an unprecedented inclusiveness.
Republicans do not give a shit about America or Americans. Democrats do.
It's Not Just an Infrastructure Bill, It's a Jobs Plan, Too
