Mercury_Storm posted:Well yeah, but they want someone else to start it/fight it/do everything for them. Also they'd probably prefer not be be on any government watchlists. Basically this. They dream of it happening, but don't want to start it A) for a sense of moral superiority for not directly instigating it and B) out of fear that they might not succeed. It's the union of bigot and cowardly Internet Tough Guy.

The reality of Obamacare is pretty different there because of the one giant flaw in the plan of letting states refuse funding for medicaid expansion. So these people are getting hosed over and never stopped to notice the people who hosed them over deliberately. Breaking the government, then deflecting blame towards the opposition when people get angry that government is broken is the Republican's main strategy after appeal to bigotry.

VitalSigns posted:Rich white woman supporting Republicans because she wants tax cuts and has enough money to insulate her from their discriminatory policies is no surprise, that's nothing new at all. Also see some affluent gay men from Dallas or Houston. Besides insulating themselves in right wing media, I guess pure spite. The establishment hasn't completely destroyed the democrats like they promised, so they're looking to the guy that sounds like he's fighting. The actual results of the fight don't matter. Mindless rage convinces them that fighting "those people" is enough. If they're far enough gone, just having the right people hate him would be enough of a reason to support Cruz or Trump in their eyes.

Guess that can show up in anyone, although I'm not sure if its more funny or horrifying imagining most arch conservatives looking for a Big Daddy to side with so they can be the aggressor and not the oppressed.

Radish posted:Yeah this is really starting to bug me. With the exception of Nixon, Republican presidents can have whatever scandal or do anything such as Iran-Contra, be in office during 9/11, lie to get us into wars, and all the shady poo poo Cheney was up to and it's "well we have to get past this as a nation" but then we waste years on dumbass poo poo like Clinton's stuff or Benghazi. Clearly we have the ability to go after Presidential corruption and the country clearly doesn't break down during countless investigations so maybe when a Republican does something bad we should look into that and maybe do something. At this point, I'm pretty sure they consider being a Democrat at any point to be a mortal sin.

The GOP is just so deeply hurt that their loyal rubes aren't lining up to be screwed over anymore. They really can't fathom why they aren't working when someone louder, dumber, and more blatantly racist is around, so they take it out on their old "true America" group.

Wait, "enforce diversity in universities"?

Also we must arrest President Obama and erase him from history for his grave crimes of being openly black and a Democrat then do the same to all "traitors".

Frankly, I doubt they even know what the terms mean at all. All that matters is that these terms all refer to "bad" things as opposed to "good" things. You can just replace any word they attach to Obama with "bad" and have just as much meaning.
