    That’s because conservatives think they’ll always be the kidnappers.

    Imagine if Obama did this exact same series of events. He wouldn’t have gotten this far, because he’d be assassinated, or at the very least impeached, by now.

      Because the rules for conservative and liberals are very different.

      Democrats, by in large, respect the rule of law and their base will reject candidates that don’t. Conservatives simply want to be the ones giving orders and not necessarily following them. So the Venn diagram of mutual interests only intersects when a democrat does something that both sides disagree with.

      Republicans cry foul whenever a Democrat exceeds the debt ceiling but you don’t hear a fucking peep from them when Trump causes the national debt to lower our credit rating.

      We need to purge ourselves from conservatives. And the window to do so is closing quickly.
