re: #79 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

With a front like NH the GOP can sell themselves as inclusive.

Token melanin.

Plus, her Indian background plays well with a certain group of nationalists.

I’ve linked several times here, stories about Indian (specifically) Hindu nationalists.

Religio-nationalism is not just a belief of white Christians. The basic structure is found elsewhere in humanity.

NH gets to simultaneously play the brown-person card and the we’re-the-good-aliens-because-we’re-legal-and-believe-in-hard-work card.

So NH is the perfect token.

That she’s so willingly subservient to the devices of Trump is something which many Republicans simply don’t care about, because it’s more important to stop the ungodly abortionists than care about anything else, to the utter destruction of civilization.
