“You can’t handle the truth.” — Col. Nathan J. Jessep in A Few Good Men. Today’s GOP is afraid of the truth. Whether it’s Critical Race Theory’s examination of America’s long history of institutionalized racism, or the establishment of an independent and bipartisan commission to present findings on the insurrection of January 6, the modern GOP stands firmly opposed to not only the truth but the very idea of getting to it.
I sincerely hope to see everything this modern GOP has worked for go down in unquenchable flames. I want to see the party become unelectable for a few generations, until we solidify the principles of democracy and insulate our government against this treachery in the future.
As long as the massive right-wing propaganda machine continues to exist, almost entirely unopposed, I am not as hopeful as you.

May all decent Republicans sit out the midterms!
