But as photos and social media posts surfaced showing Sanford in a camouflage Trump 2020 shirt that read “Make Liberals Cry Again,” and a Trump-Pence sign still visible on his front lawn just months ago, the political implications became harder to ignore.

So far, Republican leaders have said nothing.

That’s the problem: reality has nothing to do with their views of the world whatsoever

Conservatives exist in a world of emotion. Facts exist to support emotion. If the facts don't fit the emotion, they are discarded. I don't know about you but I'd call that stupid. Idiotic. That's how toddlers are.

We need to stop treating these people like reasonable adults because they are not. You wouldn't let a toddler hold office. You shouldn't let a conservative, either. The toddler would do better, because they're usually not so cruel and often have potential to grow.

Oh, absolutely!

They're children, but unfortunately they're children who vote, own firearms and see everything around them as a challenge

I've had a conservative in Australia get pissy at me and say "you think you're better than me"

I responded "because I am"
