re: #356 Dopamine Fish

So once again, the Republicans are trying to govern against the will of the majority? I am shocked, SHOCKED!

Heh. Like any of today’s Republican really give a flying about the will of the “majority”??
The only “majority” they care about is whatever margin of “base” voters in their district/state that will get them elected/reelected, and they will pander to said base with whatever extremist rhetoric/policies they think their rabid “base” wants to hear.
And then get wildly indignant at even the very suggestion that the sort of hate-driven, tribalistic, bubble-mentality politics that gets them those votes is anything but “normal American attitudes”, and that the “extremists” are (always, of course) Those Guys Over There….
