Republicans don’t seem to know how to stop bleeding support from the suburbs.

Have they tried removing more women's rights?

Maybe they should attack trans people more and ban even more books!

Maybe they should try spreading more medical disinformation about vaccines, killing their own voter base.

I remember when apologists said there's no way they would really endanger and kill off part of their voter base, therefore they must know what they're doing, and therefore the vaccine and masks must be bunk.

I remember a lot of dumb fucks saying that, actually.

I know, they can run on trade and the economy and then get themselves into a trade war with America's biggest trading partner. What could go wrong!

Or how about blatantly ignoring the will of the people because sky daddy said so?

Sky daddy never said these things because

  1. He doesn't exist
  2. All words "said" by sky daddy were written by racist and misogynist centuries after words were "said"
  3. Sky daddy's ultimate philosophy, is follow the golden rule.

You don't trust the men who claim to speak for sky daddy? But they said if we don't listen to them we will be tortured forever, and if we do what they say we'll get sky cake forever, but not until after we die. They said to trust them because belief without evidence is a virtue.

Sky daddy’s ultimate philosophy, is follow the golden rule.

Sometimes the men who speak for Sky daddy like the golden rule, sometimes they want you to kill heathens, it's just a matter of time before one becomes the other.

They could also try funding the cops with a marijuana tax as revenge for it being legalized despite home grow being legalized too
