The problem in the US is that one party is attempting governance in good faith, and the other is marching towards fascism with absurd levels of party discipline, which means there's very, very little ideological variance in GOP candidates.
- S201 4y agoI get what you're saying, each party has their flaws, the GOP more so than democrats. I think my point here is that politicians are politicians regardless of what party they are aligned with. But in general, in a country with 300M+ people, there are still many millions of average republicans who hold traditional conservative values. And while I may disagree with them, I can at least hold a respectful conversation with them as opposed to so many of the MAGA-nuts who just want to scream about conspiracy theories. But that's the type of nuance that's lost in comments painting everyone who identifies with the letter R as evil and fascist thus only leading to more division.
