The party of grotesque selfishness
By Jennifer Rubin

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...e-selfishness/

Why are conservative pundits so damned good at nailing the (lack of) character of Repubes?

The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln

The “silent majority” of this election are the millions of Republicans who will vote for Biden.

It's always been beyond mere politics with the consequences of putting an unqualified unfit media clown in the W.H, it's become obvious it's about sane rational leadership, regardless of politics and partisanship.

Kansas GOP Rep. Steve Watkins was charged Tuesday with three felony counts of voter fraud related to the 2019 municipal elections, according to court records.
...because Repubes are always such honest, upstanding citizens...

The GOP’s fate: What is good for America?
By Jennifer Rubin

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...-good-america/

Quote:
What should happen to the Republican Party? As a proud co-founder of the “they deserve to go out of business” faction, I maintain that Republicans’ collective failure to defend the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic, to stand up to a dangerously defective president and to adhere to some semblance of objective truth renders this crop of Republicans undeserving of the public’s trust. Since a party is the sum-total of its elected officials and supporters, Republicans, from my perspective, should be disqualified from holding office until there is a new generation of Republicans untainted by support for Trump and willing to repudiate Trumpism.

I came to that same conclusion recently. Even as much as ending the Republican party altogether and raising something else in it's place. It would be a new home to those former Republicans that don't have the goal of turning America into an oligarchy.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp forbids cities, counties from requiring masks as coronavirus surges in the state

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...mask-mandates/

Quote:
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) signed an executive order Wednesday night explicitly banning cities from enacting their own mask mandates, even as the state experiences a sharp rise in coronavirus cases and other Republican governors are turning to mask orders to try to quell the surge.

Kemp’s order voids existing mask mandates in more than a dozen cities or counties, while also extending other coronavirus social-distancing restrictions statewide.
First he steals the election via mass voter suppression, now this. Insane.
