To Republicans like Asa Hutchinson who say the words of Ye and Fuentes are "not the

Republican Party": Just how stupid do you think most Americans are?

Their racism, angi-semitism, misogyny and vulgarity are EXACTLY what the GOP has been since the Tea Party was created by billionaires and it has increased exponentially since Trump rode down that escalator to bought-and-paid-for cheers. Before the baggers started their poo-flinging, the GOP leaders never "said the quiet part---racism, misogyny, etc.--- out loud" but they seldom criticized those who did and they REALLY appreciated their cash and, when "necessary", their violent acts against their opponents.

We've seen what you've done, we've heard what you've said and now we smell your bullshit.

(As an aside, Hutchinson's smarmy smile never fails to trigger my gag reflex! )
