GOP becoming a cult of know-nothings

The Republican Party has two tiers.

On the tiny top tier are the billionaire corporate oligarchs who run it.

Well below them are the devolved, troglodyte rank and file.

The oligarchs know exactly how to pull their strings.

They know how to make the most miserable, semi-literate working class dolt vote exactly the same as if he/she/it him/her/itself were a billionaire oligarch.

But we must never make the mistake of thinking that they're all one group when formulating a plan to deal with them.

What specific GOP policies are designed to enact laws to prevent this. Please link to the specific plank of the GOP platform that addresses your concerns. I’ll wait.

The Republican Party is becoming a cult. Its leaders are in thrall to Donald Trump, a defeated former president who refuses to acknowledge defeat. Its ideology is MAGA, Trump's deeply divisive take on what Republicans assume to be unifying American values.

The party is now in the process of carrying out purges of heretics who do not worship Trump or accept all the tenets of MAGA. Conformity is enforced by social media, a relatively new institution with the power to marshal populist energy against critics and opponents.

What's happening on the right in American politics is not exactly new. To understand it, you need to read a book published 50 years ago by Seymour Martin Lipset and Earl Raab, The Politics of Unreason: Right-Wing Extremism in America, 1790-1970. Right-wing extremism, now embodied in Trump's MAGA movement, dates back to the earliest days of the country.

You see "the politics of unreason" in today's right-wing extremism. While it remains true, as it has been for decades, that the wealthier you are, the more likely you are to vote Republican (that's interests), what's new today is that the better educated you are, the more likely you are to vote Democratic, at least among whites (that's values, and it's been driving white suburban voters with college degrees away from Trump's "know nothing" brand of Republicanism).

The definition of Projection
Projection is the process of displacing one’s feelings onto a different person, animal, or object. The term is most commonly used to describe defensive projection—attributing one’s own unacceptable urges to another. For example, if someone continuously bullies and ridicules a peer about his insecurities, the bully might be projecting his own struggle with self-esteem onto the other person.

The American right wing has always been a disgrace to our country.
Trump did not make the GOP disgusting, he merely used the fact that it was to his advantage. He grifted the GOP morons.
Grifting is the one thing Trump does well.

That's a moronic response. How does one enact laws for betrayal? Try to be less stupid. :palm:
 
Facts do not matter to these Trumppers, they only get in the way of their rage. They would support Stallin if doing so made them feel like they were shoving it in the face of a liberal.
