> [@Dr\_Paprika](#): > > There are likely some trends but the premise is not abundantly clear to me at all. Many Republicans do care about people. Both parties represent many millions of different people. The premise might be true on a comparative basis - even so definitions would surely very and where one stands depends on where they sit. If you’re speaking of the title, consider that any individual who identifies a conservative or Republican may have reasonable views and a reasonable attitude. I wrote that headline because the Repiblican Party Leadership is pushing an anti-demacracy agenda. My point is that the Party has embraced the lies, supported the crazies and conspiracy nuts, and purged the ones with integrity. ---

Not to Godwinize, but there were also some good people who got caught up with the Nazi party in Germany. That still doesn’t prevent the Nazi’s from being an evil organization. ---

Just the ones with any real power. What is left of what some call “reasonable Republicans” are about as effective within their Party as the Log Cabin Republicans. ---

The claims that the SLI testing labs were not properly accredited are false,” [Arizona Elections Director Kori] Lorick said.

Ah - so they had no problem with _how the election was actually conducted_; they just simply want to show how much of a unified “team” they are, in disputing this. Go Team. Yeah, evil. ---
