So you think Jewish space lasers, the communist plot to steal the election, and Haitians barbecuing dogs is rational stuff that any well-adjusted person could believe?
This isn't the GOP of a couple of decades ago that was wrong and monstrous - this is actual insanity.
The level of stupidity required to believe the legitimately insane mainline GOP narrative is clear, unambiguous evidence of a significant cognitive impairment - i.e. a disability.
I don't support punishing vulnerable people that have been exploited - I support getting them help. The liars should certainly be held to account, but I think your average GOP voter is sincere in their belief - that's how Trump becomes such a central pillar of their identity.
Shall I take your arguments that my position is fascistic or hateful exploitation of the disabled as I advocate for support for the disabled to stop them being exploited by the GOP as extreme, evil stupidity?
