Lying: the one and only "conservative" value

[Cary]

Orange Hitler only proves that there is no limit to how far "conservatives" will go to acquire power.

My latest read is Reaganland. I have forgotten the depth and breadth of their lies. The fact that "conservatives" and even some liberals have the audacity to decree that "both sides do it" is appalling and infuriating. One side does it. One side is fascist. There are many definitions of fascism but really and truly fascism boils down to a pure power grab by lying and grifting.

Is it too much to ask of "conservatives" to stop lying to acquire power?

1. Since all of their "ideas" suck for anyone but them/the uberwealthy, lying is all they have

2. Not true

The only Republican value is: Mine! Mine! Gimme Gimme! That’s my money!

4. I hear you but that's just those at the top.

The grifters are few. The masses are the grifted. The masses are riff raff. The masses are mindless followers and members of a death cult.

3. The "both sides" thing infuriates me. There are many books about how Republicans have

become a radicalized freak party of incredible power. But idiots love blaming Democrats. I'm reading the excellent "Let Them Eat Tweets" right now.
