That is part of their hypocrisy. They are the least moral people on the planet just about but their blind sheep voters believe them. Look at Ingraham.

Everything the right claimed to stand for was a lie. except for one thing. Destroying the government to cut taxes on the rich.

—————

Just to belabor the obvious: everything the US right claimed to stand for, except for one thing, turns out to have been a lie. The party of “patriotism” is OK with foreign powers intervening in US elections, as long as they benefit. 1/

The party of God, personal responsibility, and family values is OK with presidents who pay off porn stars (and House speakers who molest teenage boys) 2/


The party of “fiscal responsibility” is fine with running deficits that are unprecedented in an economy neither in a war or a recession 3/


Only one thing remains as an unchanging, never-to-be-violated principle: tax cuts for the rich. And they will do anything, literally anything, to achieve that goal 4/



And the capper:

Not just no collusion: they won't even admit Russia favored Trump. The GOP is now officially the party that thinks treason in the pursuit of tax cuts is no vice

That is why they despised a Democratic president who wanted to raise taxes to provide healthcare and expand the social safety net.

The GOP has one priority: destroy government to cut taxes on the rich. When Obama tried to expand healthcare, the GOP turned their propaganda machine on him.

from when Obama was President.

the gop actually did hate him more than love America.. and the proof was in they were trying to destroying it even then.

So STFU RM.. you're projecting and it shows.

But then, ... she is a Republicon so we can't expect great reasoning ability on her part.
