Right This Minute

Republicans are celebrating having added trillions of dollars to the country’s debt – money that will be repaid by middle-class workers for decades to come.

Republicans are raising their glasses to toast the fact that millions of Americans will be losing their healthcare coverage.

Republicans are congratulating themselves on having ignored the people who put them in office in order to fatten their own wallets and the bank accounts of their wealthy donors.

Republicans are patting themselves on the back for having shafted their fellow citizens and endangered the well-being of their own country.

Republicans are jumping for joy at the idea of sick children dying because they “don’t have the money” to fund programs like CHIP – having given that money to billionaires instead.

Right this minute, Republicans are making merry over the fact that they handed a “win” to their “pResident” – a man who is under investigation for obstructing justice, colluding with our nation’s enemies, has diminished our country’s standing as a world leader, and is known as an incompetent liar whose only real claim-to-fame is having built his personal empire by cheating workers out of their pay and investors out of their money.

If you vote Republican, you’re a fucking moron – because you’re not invited to the party, and never will be. Your only purpose is to pay the caterers, foot the champagne bill, and compensate the clean-up crew that has to shovel-up the shit your elected representatives have left you as a reward for your vote.

As I’ve said many times before, we’re not fighting Republicans so much as we’re fighting The Stupid who vote for them.

President Trump Stress Disorder. That's not a joke. The rubes who voted for the cheesy reality TV actor will feel it the worst.
The cowardly Repubics who shoved this travesty through had no hearings. Uncle Vladimir is laughing out loud.

I have a sign that I put on the back of my car. It is horrible. Republicans should be blank blank and left to rot. One old man said I was sick and he will pray for me. I told him I don't want him praying to the Republican God Satan for me.

It's as though they are taking the first steps towards something even more hideous.

I think I repeat myself.

I was talking to a friend and I was saying the same as what Nance's last paragraph is about. I think "The Stupid" who vote for republicans believe that because they vote republicans they are exempt, somehow, from all the evil doing of the republicans, that an invisible shield, a la Harry Potter, descends on them the moment they cast their vote. They don't understand that if they are not members of the very wealthy club, that they are going to suffer like everyone else who is not.

It is mind boggling how republican voters think...or not think.

Literally. I have felt like getting sick all day because of this. In fact, there have been too many times in the past year that I have felt like getting sick when I hear or read about these people and the evil that they are perpetrating on the people of this country. I am tired of feeling this way.

When are we going to get a break from the hell that this party has unleashed upon us? I just feel like this can't go on much longer. Something has to give.
