re: #96 Feline Fearless Leader

Who was it that said that evil takes root in greed, ill will, and delusion? The GOP has that combination down pat.

The GOP establishment has propagandized its base extensively with hateful and divisive lies over the past few decades, all in an attempt to amass power to support their agenda of tax cuts uber alles.

What Trump’s candidacy shows is that a significant fraction of the GOP base really do believe all the lies of Fox News et al. The good news is that these people don’t have any particular attachment to GOP orthodoxy. The bad news is that these people have been turned into haters looking for targets.
