I really like The Racket News, and I especially agree with this one. I also did not vote for Burt Jones or Chris West. I forwarded this column to Sarah Longwell at The Bulwark and the Republican Accountability Project.

As a long retired, former republican who was never that interested in politics, I just posted several of these "sentiments" on FB. So happy to see them corroborated here. Trump has inspired my near obsession with what he's created in our country. He forced no one to follow him. Idiocracy, indeed!
This is the problem with constant hollowing out of our institutions and government: people start to think it doesn't work at all, so why not just blow it all up?

You made me giggle at the end whilst I dabbed at my tears. If this truly is the direction I country is headed in I am perfectly fine with Jesus returning tonight.

Strong conservatives in government would be a good thing. Unfortunately, they don't run for elected office. They think they have better things to do and that everyone should be as competent as they are. Progressive career politicians eagerly fill the leadership void when the opportunity arises. They do not lead, but they do further the nanny state.
Voters are now alternating control of our government between the competing parties of career politicians who are taking turns displaying their ineptitude. It's a matter of who the voters prefer to be pulling the strings at the moment. We can't find a middle ground that allows consistency in governance. Change is not always good.
Thanks for the chortle.

I fear we're moving towards outright authoritarianism, with the (for lack of a better term) less educated being brainwashed and used to believe things like this: https://thefederalist.com/2022/10/20/we-need-to-stop-calling-ourselves-conservatives/
