@singlemaltgirl @OldCountryDoctor: Some are genuinely stupid. (I mean legit, truly stupid.) Some are just conditioned by their upbringing and surroundings to be/think/feel the way they do. Some are genuinely villainous, malign, corrupted. Some, as the fella said, "just to want watch the world burn".

White supremacy is a hell of a drug, apparently.
@Shelter @OldCountryDoctor If it makes almost half the country willing to ditch democracy I'd say, yes....it is.
@OldCountryDoctor
The GOP found themselves a "useful idiot" in Walker. They only care that their manifestos are carried out, and they figure they can manipulate him all day. Now that Walker doesn't get them the majority though, I am really curious how much effort the GOP will put into his campaign.
@CrystallineEntity @OldCountryDoctor
Totally agree that the GQP is using Walker. However, I am of the opinion (because scientifically this cannot be proven until the autopsy after someone dies) that Walker has CTE (Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a progressive brain condition that's thought to be caused by repeated blows to the head and repeated episodes of concussion. It's particularly associated with contact sports, such as boxing or American football.)
@Gladari @OldCountryDoctor
I very much agree with you. It's clear that he has some issues, which makes all of it so much more heinous to me. It's similar to watching the spectacle of Kanye. These folks need help, not predators.
@CrystallineEntity @OldCountryDoctor Yes, but GQP chooses to exploit - like they do with everything & everyone!
@Gladari @CrystallineEntity
Certainly a possibility, but if so, even more of a reason to disqualify him from running for office. I could see that Reagan had strong signs of Alzheimer's disease BEFORE he was elected President, but that didn't stop him from running (and from accelerating the destruction of American democracy). #Politics
@OldCountryDoctor @CrystallineEntity
Agree on all points!
neither do the people who pull the lever for that "candidate"
@OldCountryDoctor i find it shocking that peeps voted for bobo, mtg, or oz. but they do. it's the oddest thing. the disparity in quality of candidates is so vast...yet the votes are so close. i have no understanding of 🇺🇸 voters. i truly don't.
