      I'm old enough to remember when it was considered "shrill" to suggest that the GOP had become an alliance of plutocrats and racists -- policy agenda of tax cuts for rich and slashing social programs, win elections by appealing to fear and prejudice

      When Republicans wring their hands and say "this is not who we are" -- yes, it is, and it has been for a long time. Trumpism is just more blatant about the strategy the party has followed since the 1970s

          So if you like nice things why cut social programs in favor of cash hording by rich people?

          Republicans true philosophy has always been take as much as you can while you have access to the pot. Every man for himself. And fuck the rest. Everything else they have ever asserted is just pretext to hide their avarice, selfishness, and shortsightedness @gop @HouseGOP

          They want to have it both ways, take the support of racists and support the racist president in turn, but then act offended if called out on their support for racism.

          Reagan set the early model for the Walrus. He crushed the poor, enhanced the rich, supported hate media. Ironic for a former democrat, but then there was Joe McCarthy.

          ...an alliance of plutocrats and racists.. Great summary. What about the religosity?
