‘When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in a flag a carrying a cross.’
Sinclair Lewis
The Republicans functionally made a pact with the devil in the 80s when they leaned heavily into the Evangelicals, betting they would be reliable voters and knowing they are laughably easy to manipulate.
And now this is what we get. Theocratic Fascism.
Even if Dear Leader goes to jail, even if he looses the election and there is not another coup attempt, these maniacal morons are not going away anytime soon.
