The real question is: Why do Republicans even get elected in the first place?

Because individuals brought up with conservative values don’t like change. You could offer them a job double what they make, the only catch is that DEI is real strong at the new place. They’ll have to work will multi ethnic, homosexual, and trans folks. They’d turn it down in a heartbeat.

Yearsss of generational lack of education, racism, misogyny & overall hate & fear of "the other". Also churches prefer the status quo & ppl prefer to double-down than to acknowledge they were wrong. It's really, really dumb.

It looks like an interesting study in unintended FAFO. The shame is many good ppl got sucked into the consequences of the fools' actions.

Let’s not forget that Fox News and all the right wing “influencers” contribute to all of this.

Because the GOP attracts sociopaths and psychopaths highly skilled at propaganda, and dedicated to oligarchy and authoritarian rule? It's The Rich Leading the Gullible? Just a guess...

Well, in 2016 & 2024, Democrats really displayed how sexist they are. More eligible voters didn't vote AT ALL than who voted for either candidate.
