This. I have not been anti GOP my whole life but they have just went beyond the pale this millenia and they keep getting worse. they just have to go. its unacceptable for them to hold any office at this point and I hope conservatives can see this and get away from corpo bullshit and stuff and reshingle like when the wigs went away. They need to get back to something with real core beliefs that it stands by. I know a lot of the left will basically yell that none of their things are good and I get that. Its not what I think is right but at this point they just don't even have anything but if its us its good if its thems its bad even if its the same thing.
