Just Nineteen words describe the Republican Party. Those 19 words are in the following 2 sentences.

The Republican Party doesn't care about all the people in our country. It only cares about ONE GROUP--"THEMSELVES"

Please pass those 19 words, and 2 sentences on to everyone.

President Joe Biden discussed this today.

This is the "Truth" about Republicans. Just 19 words & 2 sentences. Very simple Indeed.

Because the ones in Congress are in it for their own benefit, not that of run-of-the-mill Republicans.

They vote for things that hurt them as well. Except for the rich of course. They are focused on revenge of all things liberal.

The Covid vaccine illustrates this mindset. Libs love science and are all for getting The Jab, therefore it is evil and they refuse to take it. Aaand the virus has been killing them off at a far higher rate.

Understand that and you understand so much of what drives the behavior of Republicans.

Funny thing, though, is that support of corporations over individuals is absolutely contrary to the goals of the 14 words, so they can't even get that right.

Thanks for being my first commenter!

I've been off DU for years, but back again to re-engage after fleeing Twitter recently.

I was off for a long time too but came back. I joined during the Bush years and didn't get on as much during the Obama years. But then when Trump got elected, I came back and have been here daily ever since.

For being so up front and honest about them. Maybe not all republicans, but certainly the vast majority of the politicians and all of the Trumpers/Magats.
