If My President and My Party ...
… tried to get me to vote by appealing to what they hoped was my bigotry and racism, I’d be extremely pissed-off.
If my president and my party tried to get me to the polls by lying to me repeatedly, I’d be beyond insulted.
If my president and my party tried to win my vote by using baseless scare tactics, I’d be livid.
If my president and my party tried to win elections by suppressing the votes of those most likely to vote against them, I’d be furious.
If my president and my party tried to win my vote by announcing their plans to cut social security, Medicaid and Medicare after having given tax-breaks to the obscenely wealthy, I’d be acrimonious.
If my president and my party tried to get me to vote by supporting Nazis and white supremacists running on our ticket, my anger would know no bounds.
If my president and my party tried to get me to the polls by doing any of the above, I would denounce that president, and abandon that party – immediately and without hesitation.
The fact that the Republicans are using all of the above as the bait to lure their supporters to the polls tells us exactly who their voters are: the racists, the bigots, the misogynists, and the easily-led.
They are trying to appeal to those stupid enough to vote against their own interests, and brain-dead enough to swallow the most ludicrous lies.
Gee, which posters here does THAT accurately describe?
The fact is the GOP has absolutely nothing to offer other than dog-whistles, fear of non-existent bogey-men, and keeping those who oppose them from voting at all.
THIS is what the Republican party has become – the champion of those too stupid to recognize lies when they hear them, those too dumb to understand that they’re being led by the nose, and those way too ignorant to recognize that they’re the ones who are getting fucked.
Republican voters don't get angry, don't get vitriolic, don't get livid when they're intelligence (such as it is) is insulted, when their "pResident" and their party rely on their stupidity along with their votes.
That's because they're too busy worrying about other things - like those Mideastern terrorists on their way to the border, and who's going to pay for the Roll Royces the Democrats have promised them when they get here.
