        I know this is a destructive impulse, but a huge part of the joy I experience from these photos is knowing how many truly awful people throughout history and today would be disgusted and terrified of what they represent, and what they mean.

        Look at this .... part of Congress actually looking like the America they represent. ❤️❤️❤️ Who knew!! Now if only the other side of the aisle looked even a little bit like this..... it’s like one represents the past .... the other the present and future.

        You’re absolutely right. The ones pictured represent the American people. The Republican Party does not. I’m sure that’s what you meant. 😉 have a beautiful day.
