    If there’s something you can always count the Republicans on, it’s consistently working against the interests of their constituents, and always doing what’s worst for the country.

    Sadly, so do the Democrats most of the time. But at least unlike the Republicans, it’s not because they’re evil, but because they’re fucking tools.

      The GOP and the DNC are the sword and shield of the wealthy elites respectively.

      The only thing that’s changed in the past 10 years is that MAGA started primarying GOP incumbents and pulling the party further right.

          I mean, this is the “my job is to keep the left pro-Israel” guy. If there’s something we can describe as evil in the 21st century, it’s Zionism.

            True enough. Although I was just considering how bad the folks on Capitol Hill were to their own country.

            But come to think of it, clearly supporting Israel clearly proves bad for whichever country chooses to support it. So yeah, you got a point.

              On the domestic front, Schumer is famously an establishment anti-progressive leader, so he’s got plenty of evil in him there too—which, I mean, one doesn’t become a Zionist by having an infinite well of love for their fellow man.
