Another example of the conservative personality being prone to neurotic obsession with cleanliness. It's why conservatives don't like rare meat--blood is icky. Without evidence, they are convinced the out-class has poor hygine and smells bad.

This lawmaker is also an emergency room physician. Let that sink in. Think there might be something to the allegations of disparity of care based on race?

They don't even attempt to hide their hypocrisy anymore.

Repubes are going to bear the Trump stain for years to come

https://www.businessinsider.com/repu...lection-2020-6

For years Republicans have spoken privately about their disgust with President Trump's racist tactics, focus on dividing us, and general incompetence. But at some point elected Republicans will distance themselves from all things Trump and Trumpism or risk being polluted with the association forever.

As the last few years have shown, the self-described party of law and order, of a hawkish defense, is in fact a cavalcade of wimps. Their fear of Trump prevents them from following their conscience and speaking publicly against his most outrageous actions.

I think that stain is already indelible. Any savvy opponent simply has to ask them to defend what they've done and condemn them for it. Sure the gullible may still vote for them but history will record them as tRump's enablers.

Texas Has Shifted to an “It’s Your Responsibility” Pandemic Plan

As new coronavirus cases and hospitalizations reach their highest levels yet, the state is relying less on restrictions and more on individual decisions—in ways that raise the risks for Texans as a group.

Pretty much typical Repube response to just about everything. “You’re on your own, folks. Good luck!”

GOP leaders silent on QAnon-believing candidate now distancing themselves

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...077_story.html

Republican leaders who said nothing after Marjorie Taylor Greene, a believer of the QAnon conspiracy theory, won a GOP primary in Georgia last week are now distancing themselves from her candidacy after the discovery of videos of her making racist, anti-Semitic and Islamophobic comments.

What a surprise!

Paul Petersen, a Republican who served as Maricopa County’s assessor for six years until his resignation in January, faces a maximum of 17 years in prison for his guilty pleas on Arizona charges of fraudulent schemes and forgery.

Why am I not surprised this ass is a Repube?

We’re finally talking about structural racism. Republicans are freaking out.
