Right wing nut jobs - the best technique is just to mock them mercilessly.

The goal of mocking is not change their minds, that’s just not possible or worth the effort. The goal is to isolate them, let them grow old and die, without being able to create any meaningful number of disciples.

@oofdah84 You imagined that card. I was just saying, it’s YOUR Lincoln that made this a COUNTRY. Stop trying to turn it into a NorAm EU.

And specifically, the type of mocking in that Tweet. There are still a lot of people who might sympathize with the Right Wing in the wrong circumstances, but who are still sane enough to get upset when they realize that the wingnut’s answer to “What country do you live in?” is increasingly likely to not be “the USA”, but “Texas”, or “Arizona”, or “Virginia”. Get that idea out front of a moderate’s nose and they’re likely to be a lot less sympathetic to the TEAs.

THEN all that remains is to convince ‘em that a vote for anyone but the Dem in their local race is a vote for the TEAs.
