Who do they represent?
What do they really think about our government?
Do they work for the people that vote for them?
Have they perfected their message to the point they no longer need to worry that their supporters might desert them?
They are anti-everything unless it benefits the top 1%?
They have no scruples. They will lie, cheat, and steal to regain power. They believe the Democrats are just as evil and crooked as they.
They do not support the survival of Social Security or Medicare now and they never have. They pretend they do to keep a certain layer of low-info voters.
What do they stand for that is good for the people of this country?
I can think of nothing.

(111,095 posts)I can think of nothing positive they offer for the people of this country. I know they have their spiel about smaller government, socialism, high taxes, deficits, small business, and all that but that is all it is, a spiel. They live in a contradiction. I simply cannot understand how they have so much support?
