(#5998) The republican party has never been about benevolent government

      We are seeing the results of today's republican party and its centuries old agenda to only cater to those who are well off. They have been reluctant and outright against any national framework that unites all citizens regardless of race, gender, religion, and political affiliation. They are not what one would correctly describe as uniters. Instead they have a self absorbed condition that will conditionally only allow a coming together under arbitrary factors. In contrast we democrats do not make conditions for our uniting. In fact we even include republicans without conditions that republicans use against us.
     I am not a religious person but I will use examples from their texts that make it clear who we democrats are or who republicans aren't. We democrats are akin to the good Samaritan who reaches out a hand to help the stranger. Not like republicans who would scoff at the stranger while turning away from any plight of theirs. The republican reasoning is illogical in that they think one should pull themselves up by their own bootstraps even though republicans didn't pull themselves up without any help. We democrats are clear that helping anyone better themselves betters all of us. We all need or needed help to get where we are and that is just truth.
     The trump presidency has been all about limiting and curtailing great progress over the centuries of our society toward fairness and equality. The rule of law is being adjusted to allow for criminality in some situations involving the wealthy, famous, and powerful. That is not blind justice that is visible injustice. The role of our representatives is being bullied to the point where we are unsure of the actual threats made to force public office holders minds from objective considerations to coerced results. We are living in a perilous time where free thinking and benevolence are being cornered by forces within the republican party. These republican forces see their ultimate dream of crushing the heart of America with prejudicial satisfaction about to come to fruition.
