Are all Republicans insane?

[Cyrano]

The Republican Party has marched off a cliff in lockstep. And their zombies have returned to destroy whatever sanity may still exist in America.

They’re against: Social Security; Medicare; abortions; unions; a minimum wage; and even though they low key it, they’re also against civil rights, voting rights, and anyone who isn’t the right color, the right religion, or doesn’t wave the flag enough. (This is just a partial list.)

They’re for: Handing over America to the top 2%; peddling hatred 24/7; war – any war; the total and absolute destruction of freedom and intelligent thought; the establishment of a plutocracy in America; and the death of democracy. (This too is just a partial list.)

So here’s my question. Why do so many Americans keep voting for Republicans? I know that millions of people are uniformed, and many are just plain dumb. But at some point, you’d think that even the brain-dead would finally “get it.” Why do so many people keep voting for Republicans???

1. No...you need brains to go insane....they're just duds.

2. no, they just have a much larger fear section in their brains

it looks like the same thing--And the only thing that soothes the fear is to stick with folks as much like you as possible--no new or different or interesting ideas allowed. That's why they vote like they do. They can't help it. A nation of feartards.

3. Unfortunately, they can't plead insanity.

The ability to hold core beliefs that are anti-human are built into our brain. Simply put, stupidity could not exist if there were no such thing as intelligence.

7. There may have be a couple sane ones, but they've been purged

8. In many cases, it is likely because their churchs' clergy preaches to them

That voting for Democrats=supporting sinning baby murderers, which by association makes them a sinner as well.

9. Most of them are stone drunk as well.

10. "don't bother them with the facts - they have already made up their minds"

(I forget who said this but it's a great quote.)
