What kind of person sees humanity struggling with a global pandemic created by man's relentless encroachmebt on the darkest corners of nature, and thinks we have too many environmental protections...

Only a Republican could be so short-sighted.

"Not all Republicans agree with all the things Trump has done."

Nice broadbrush there Boaz.

You don't even realize you did it.

And that's the problem with Republicans in a nutshell:

Real lack of critical thinking skills.

Conservatives in general are unable or unwilling to think critically about their own beliefs and assumptions.

Like when conservatives decry the "Identity Politics!" of The Left -- while waving the flag, waving their guns, and waving The Bible.

"Not all Republicans agree with all the things Trump has done."

But you remain a Republican, through thick and thin.

Your first and only loyalty is to the Party.

You're kind of in the role of the hostage taker, to Eberly's Stockholm Syndrome.

For example, here you are in this thread, trying to convince us you're not such a bad guy, because you don't agree with everything Trump has done.

All while remaining loyal to the Party. And giving Eberly emotional comfort that it's okay to have a madman for a leader, just as the hostage taker himself is a man driven to madness by his circumstances, who probably does deserve some pity, just like his victim.

What little empathy is to be found is reserved for Party members only.

And always, the anger and blame is directed outward. Never will you blame Republicans for Trump. Never will you take responsibility for Trump.

Y'all understand what I'm talking about?
