We are now likely to see a congress of cultist conspiracy freaks even more destructive, more crazy and more dedicated to taking away all real freedom and justice. The misnamed Freedom Caucus was bad enough. I wonder what the Boebert/Greene wing call themselves. Just the MAGA wing I guess has become the established name for them. It is just one reason I am feeling sad and lazy today.

We can blame the Dems for a lot of this.  Most voters are naive in the extreme.  If 'R' says he's a good guy, wants to lower your taxes and put the bad guys in jail, some stuffy academic response by 'D' will be ignored entirely.  The 'D's need to meet the voters on their level and talk their language.  That we've allowed the electorate to get this degraded in civics can be faulted on societal decisions made in the past, but it is what it is.
