They simply do not care. That’s going to be someone else’s problem. Which is the fundamental problem with the modern Republican Party. They have no regard for the future.
But the other side of that is no political accountability. There’s no risk of punishment, so why should they care? Insider trading, corruption, nepotism, general lying, acting in bad faith, and intentionally misrepresenting facts to disrupt useful debate.
Politicians get away with all of that and more, and get paid massive amounts of money, above and below the table, while they do it.
Yep, the Republican base has proven they’ll vote for literally anyone with an ® next to their name no matter how many felonies they commit. And because they’re fanatics, they turn out to vote every time, no matter what.
The only way we get out of this nightmare is to hold the line, keep voting every cycle to keep the mainiacs out of power until the party inevitably implodes due to demographic shifts. Hopefully it’ll happen soon, worrying about this shit is exhausting. But until then, we can’t afford to be complacent.
I disagree with that statement. The Rs have a deep regard for the future. They are doing a fantastic job at making the next few generations capitolistic cogs.
They’re keep people riled up about irrelevant fringe issues while totally dismantling education, Healthcare, and freedom of speech.
The Rs are playing the long game, and they’re winning. (And to be fair, the Ds are doing their damn best to enable that behavior)

Hey at least insider trading is a bipartisan effort!
