    As non-american I’m becoming increasingly convinced republicans are actually lead by traitors wanting to destroy the US.

      I dont think that’s it.

      It’s an overwhelming case of “got mine”.

      Like sanders said, being a GOP member just means staying in line.

        Yeah pretty much, Trump had ties to the Russian mob. Beyond that, they probably poured money into the MAGA movement for God knows how many senators. Putin won. Well played really.

          putin have pouring into the gop for a long time, and almost all the right wing governments elsewhere, why do you think the sudden rise of right wing govt all at once, plus they also fund alt-right groups like racial supremcy groups. isreal is similar, just by the USA (which is the most right wing western country even before trump)

      Wanting? No. But they see the impending collapse and rip the copper out of the walls.

        Explain why you would intentionaly get rid of cost saving EV’s? Either they are a total cult, of actively trying to make America as miserable place to live as possible.

        GOP’s decisions only make sense if they are in it for the sadistic thrill of torturing and killing millions.

          I mean, they aren’t particularly smart and will make huge blunders. But they’re still smarter than those neoliberals who try to keep the empire running like a cartoon character in midair

      So do the Democrats…

      I hope they fix their system, but I have no idea how they could.
