The single letter party. That letter is where the votes are. Somehow all of the rest of the alphabet and especially “D” has been made toxic over 70 years of propaganda.

Frankly, that’s why I have reverted to calling the whole shebang Retrumplicans.

Yes, there’s Republicans left around, but they are few and far between. You’ll know them, because they put constitution above party.
