Sure, the 'hard-core' Republicans' will never leave the 'party', even if there's no party to leave. But, sad to admit, as a former Republican (I was brought up that way, took getting a Union Job to realize the error of my ways decades ago) there are Republicans who are simply brainwashed to buy every single line of bullshit that Fux Noise and any Conservative Pundit utters. I listened to my minimum wage younger brother 'spew' the Trickle Down theory as he crashed at my home to interview for yet another dead-end job. I simply questioned him "Now what makes you think a Millionaire is going to spend all of that money to 'trickle down' when he could send it all to an off-shore bank, not pay taxes on it, never for that money to ever appear in the United States ever again?" He didn't have a friggin clue. He only knew how to repeat what he'd been spoon-fed over the years. I knew what it was like, I used to do the same.
I believed that given enough time, and hard work, I'd be a millionaire just like all of those 'Trickle-Down' guys. My brother and sister did as well. Hell, my Sister even bought into that sorry-ass Amway Ponzi Scheme of Devos Family. She and her husband nearly lost their home because of the brain-washing 'tools' that they listened to on their way to and from work each day. Believe when they finally had to tell their daughters NOT to answer the phone any longer (bill collectors) they both finally determined maybe a change in Political Affiliation was in order (and get the hell away from Amway). I just know when my Dad's phone blew up last time he was in car with my Brother-in-Law, and bro-in-law asked 'what the hell is all that about', when I responded "That's his Fox News Alert" my bro-in-law almost had to pull over he was laughing so hard, saying, "You mean Fake News Alert?"
Some folks learn, some don't. No matter how hard they get reality slapped across their faces. But, it does seem the older generation is the hardest to learn, not all, please, never say I'm generalizing. I've got way too many friends, family that are GOP and Democrats.
But, with the way Hairplug Himmler is literally ripping up our National Parks, National Forests, selling off BLM Lands, leasing the Arctic National Wildlife to the highest bidder, pulling us out of the Paris Climate Agreement, pulling us out of the Iran Agreement, overturning anything GOOD that Obama, Bush, et. al ever set forth, I really don't see that anyone can forget the living hell he's creating for our Nation on a second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day basis.
I just hope, who ever debates this azzhat, will bring up each and every point of what he's done to our Nation in the Debates. The harm he's done to our Nation. The fact that he's illegally enriched himself to the point, no one can honestly say how many Tax Dollars have been spent at his Resorts on a Daily Basis. How much Foreign Governments have spent at his Resorts, plying him with money to gain favor.
It makes me sick just typing this.
