How Do These Stupid, Inane, Racist, Stingy, Hateful,Et Al Republicans Still Get Elected?

Every day some Republican official somewhere says or repeats some of the most inane and stupid things. Their little pea brains keep coming up with rhetoric so imaginable. It is laughable, absurd, insane, stupid, inane, hateful, bigoted, cruel, off color, etc etc etc. Use a thesaurus. What they say and do is angering and enraging and downright inhuman.

Yet they stay in office year after year and cycle after cycle and continue the same ignorant bullshit continually until you vomit.
I guess as a nation we are just that stupid as a country. They deserve to be flushed down a toilet like a turd.

With history and civics classes becoming less important and a culture that celebrates stupidity, don't expect the electorate to change. So the Democrats can either complain about that or they can start trying to appeal to stupid people and get elected. My choice would be the latter.

The 3 Gs.

Add hate radio and Fox Propaganda channel and rethugs could have them convinced that their mothers were hedgehogs. For example, there is and never was any proof that trickle-down economics worked, but they still preach it and believe it.

When their policies go to shit, they blame Democrats. It has worked since the late 1970s.
