    Republicans increasingly worry that their base’s contempt for Mitch McConnell is more potent than its love for Trumphttp://nyti.ms/2ytz7dE

        Only 14% of voters turned out for this R special primary runoff. We can turn Alabama Blue for #DougJonesforSenate #ALSEN Dec 12.

        And those of us who believe in separation of church and state worry about the likelihood of Roy Moore in the US Senate.

        Wow. Read up on this wacko. He's already proven to be dangerous. I liked him stranded in Alabama. We don't need him on the National scene.

        Turtle is about to be trampled! Not going to miss McConnell's lying smirky. He wanted power even if that meant blind eye to Russians.

        They're not republicans. That's the problem. Oh, they vote mostly republican and register as republicans, but they are not republicans.

        Reactionaries, basically. They want to dial back the US to the 1950s, socially. The whys vary. The occasional nutbag conspiracy theorist.

        They're not really a monolith, as much as people like to portray them that way. Many different reasons for arriving at ill directed anger.

        They start to cohere on antimodernism, opposing "decadence" and liberalism, since liberalism what phased out their pet traditionalism.
