Some reasons I want to TRY to defend the GOP.
(Except they haven’t practiced what they thought they were preaching…)

Smaller government.
Less government.
Fewer taxes.
” Founded by anti-slavery expansion activists in 1854, it is often called the Grand Old Party or the GOP, despite being the younger of the two major parties. The party’s platform is generally considered right of center in the U.S. political spectrum.” Wikipedia
Party of Lincoln.
“The Republican Party includes fiscal conservatives, social conservatives, neoconservatives, moderates, and libertarians. Prior to the formation of the conservative coalition, which helped realign the Democratic and Republican party ideologies in the mid-1960s, the party historically advocated classical liberalism, paleoconservatism, and progressivism.”

This is making my head hurt.
I give up.
