Want to bet that no matter how the health care repeal vote goes, if there is one at all, and no matter how the tax reform bill goes, if there is one at all, the kochs will still support their republican lackeys this coming election despite them saying they won't. Like a lot of things republican, blowing hot air in the form of threats is their way of having a conversation. You know, just like there are good people on both sides of perpetrator and victim. lol. The republican party is full of the types that are without integrity and honor. There are some who exhibit so modicum degree of courage when it comes to principles of a higher order but even then they are not consistent with it.
Every republican I know has a major fault that is irreconcilable to me and anyone who has the decency to require a minimum of respect. That the republican party is in control of our national politics and a majority of our states is abominable and even worse it is a living nightmare. I am not alone as many people I contact with feel the same overwhelming sense of shame. The actual majority of Americans are not republicans and the only reason republicans are in power is through their manipulations of election politics. The media is another area of their manipulations since they own too much of it. The tide of republicanism is upon us and how we fight against that tide will be the only saving grace for our democracy.
If the rule of law is to survive then the facts of the truth must be let out despite any harm that may come to our institutions. Sunlight truly is the disinfectant we need to purge the underhanded schemes that are now unfortunately our norms. To wake up from this nightmare we need a few things to change. First we all need to vote when the voting time comes. No exceptions except for obvious reasons. Next we need to vote for the best option out there despite our own personal preferences. Remember, this isn't just about our own high and mighty values, it is about all our values so compromise to get better instead of getting worse is always the right thing to do. Unless you like the era of trumps and the path of hatred and destruction they have laid out for our future together.
