Republican "Brand": Drano, Soft-weve, K-Y, Liquid-Plumr...

I'm sick and tired of hearing that they have a "Brand"...what they have is a racist, misogynist, haters-gotta-hate group of crypto-fascists. No "Brand"...just mean and rotten, and, oh yes, did I mention Ignorant?

... to be told that choosing a political ideology should be done the same way as choosing a pair of shoes, a car, or a soft drink.

I always hear there's problem with the brand but rarely what's specifically wrong...and even more rare is any way to rectify that problem. For those of us outside the bubble the answer appear obvious but those sucked into that parallel universe most are so brainwashed into the memes and lies that they really don't understand how revolting and destructive their "brand" is.

When a rushpulican loses it's because of the "brand"...a nice way to pass the buck over one's own inadequacies as a candidate. If the rushpublicans lose big this year (as we all hope they will), the fight will be over "who ruined the brand". That's an acid fight I'll enjoy watching, but first things first...there are rushpublicans to beat and 40% of the electorate stuck on stupid...
