What a Fool Believes

Republican voters ...

... believe that the 2020 election was "stolen" from Trump, despite the fact that more than a year after that election, not a scintilla of evidence has been produced to support that theory.

... believe that the GOP is working for the betterment of the middle-class, despite refusing to vote for Biden's agenda - which includes policies and programs that actually DO benefit the middle-class.

... believe that Dr. Fauci, esteemed the world over as an expert in his field, doesn't know as much about Covid as 'doctors' who think vaccines contain alien DNA, and that unvaccinated people dying at a much higher rate than the unvaccinated doesn't mean the vaccines are effective and/or safe.

... believe that mass shootings are something we should just accept as inevitable, and have nothing to do with GOP leaders refusing to back gun control legislation.

... believe that people like Joel Osteen are good Christians because living in multi-million dollar mansions "is doing the Lord's work".

... believe that tax breaks for the wealthy 1% are a good thing, because someday they're going to be multi-billionaires themselves.

... believe that Trump's associates being indicted is no big deal, and the fact that he's pardoned them is proof thereof.

... believe that when whack-jobs like Marjorie Taylor-Greene talk about Jewish Space Lasers, she knows what she's talking about.

... believe that vacuous airheads like Ivanka and Jared were the perfect people to be advising the "pResident" on matters of domestic and foreign policy due to their vast experience in those areas.

... believe that raving lunatics like Alex Jones are the voice of reason.

... believe that refusing to testify before the January 6 Select Committee and/or pleading the 5th are signs of innocence of any wrongdoing.

... believe that a deranged, orange-faced idiot who can identify a drawing of a giraffe is a "stable genius".

... believe that they're being laughed at by the sane people in the world - okay, gotta give 'em that one - because they are.


This is by no means a complete list - please add your own thoughts.
