I have seen 3 Republican presidents in my lifetime. All 3 destroyed the economy. When will we learn?

When will we learn?

Never, so long as their voters are delusional enough to believe the RNC is god’s chosen party on Earth.

I grew up Mormon and GTFO of that cult at 18, but I saw enough from my parents and extended family to know they’ll always vote straight-ticket Republican because they’ve bought into the Republican “family values, God, Bible” bullshit for so long that the party will always have the delusional Christian vote.

It’s interesting talking to Republican lawmakers one on one. The utter contempt they have for Christian conservatives is just amazing. They see Evangelicals, Mormons, and others as gullible fools who can be led around like sheep.

Because they are and can be, and these snakes know it based on 50 years of leading them around like sheep.

Because they are. Mormonism is a cult that got out of control. Of course men love it as they are in charge, but I fail to see the appeal for women.

Predation is a MAGA leader qualification

Yep you tell the world “I’m prone to fascist ideologies and I’m not big into critical thinking” when you’re part of organized monotheistic religions. Don’t be surprised when you’re manipulated and used.
