Top Ten Ways Republican Politicians Are Irrational
What kinds of things do Republicans believe that make absolutely no sense for the greater good of humanity?
-
Their number one priority is themselves
Did a Democrat post this? I am an independent, but this describes both Republicans and Democrats. They are more loyal to their stupid political party than to their own country, and it is disgraceful.
Vote for the best candidate and the one you agree with. Don't vote for someone just because of their party.
Their purpose is to help benefit our country. Their number one priority should be the middle class.
-
They prioritize the welfare of billion dollar corporations over the welfare of America
Trump is primarily a showman and entertainer with a significant ego problem. The headlines should be about him, and that's why you see one strange performance after another in his public statements and tweets. His businesses and personal interests are the only things he really cares about.
This acts as a distraction for the American people, both his supporters and his haters. Meanwhile, his administration is dedicated to providing support for private corporate powers, and everything else can be dismissed. With their budget proposals, they are step by step eliminating the federal budget, except for military support and the private wealth of corporate powers, aiming to benefit the elite of the Republican Party.
Everything else, like tax reforms for the middle class and healthcare, are just sophisticated words to keep people distracted and happy. In the end, it comes down to one thing: the rich will get richer, and the poor will not see a sudden improvement in their lives.

They believe good healthcare isn't a natural right
It says it right in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I'm pretty darn sure that someone with cancer isn't happy.
-
They lie to us all the time
Aspartame metabolizes in the body to tyramine, a molecule naturally found in the body. It's not 100% safe in extremely high doses, but neither is any molecule. It is, in fact, safer than sugar.
What worries me more are their political lies about taxes, economics, and other topics while they're only interested in corporate investments, military and police funding, and increasing their private wealth. Everything they say or do for the so-called working and middle class are sophisticated lies.
-
They are racist
Donald Trump wanted to deport ALL illegal immigrants, about 10 million people. Yeah, like that's possible to do humanely.
Aside from that, have you heard of the Southern Strategy? Not only Republicans do it. Bill Clinton did it in 1992. However, the Southern Strategy is very prevalent in the GOP. In fact, Obama won less than 20% of the white vote in several places such as Texas and Mississippi. Even in conservative states like North Dakota, Arizona, and Wyoming, most areas had more than 20% of the white vote for Obama.
Have you heard Donald Trump on immigration? All I heard was "all Mexicans should get out of the country."

They think spending 400 billion dollars for a defective fighter jet is worth it
Our military is the undisputed world champion. We don't need a billion-dollar jet that doesn't work.
-
They desperately deny well-established hard science
-
They are sexist
They don't want women to be paid the same as men.
-
They want to bring America back to the 1700s
While European countries and China are investing in new energies with economic futures, America, thanks to Trump, is taking steps and making investments backward. Trump wants to elevate coal mines again. First, he enacts scientific research about coal's higher CO2 emissions and cancer-causing substances. Then he will "create new jobs" by putting people back in coal mines, where they will die a slow death.
I pity those who will get jobs in coal mines, as it will almost certainly be African-Americans and Mexicans, who do not even have proper working healthcare for such risky jobs. America first? Oh yes, God is blessing them as the theory of evolution becomes more and more obsolete in the Trump era.
-
They use lies to get themselves elected
"America is dying." Every election, the Republicans say something like that to scare us into voting for them.
-
?
They refuse to accept that Trump lost in 2020
-
?
They complain about Muslims more than right-wing extremist terrorists.
-
They use religion as an escape goat
-
They think common folk aren't important
The common folk get the stuff done and feed the economy. "Hey, I have a great idea. Let's raise taxes on them."
-
They keep thinking that Barack Obama is the worst president in history
Of course that's true. After all, he is behind the Trail of Tears, the Teapot Dome Scandal, and let's not forget Watergate, Iran-Contra, or Lewinsky.
-
They use bait and switch on every single thing they do
"We need to increase the budget for military spending. There are starving veterans." The money goes to the defective jet, right?
-
They are homophobes
