    You gotta be mentally defective to be a republican.

        I really just wonder how easy it would be, psychologically, to start a Red-Blooded for Jesus organization, rake in profits under a non-profit tag, then “have to close because of the economy” and retire.

          I’m on board. We make some up some bs but close enough Biblical quotes and bad AI images, put them on t-shirts and flags, charge too much. Couple that with a poorly produced podcast. Tell them that we “support” (in really vague terms) a variety of groups (that we have made up) and infer that monthly subscriptions will help stop communism and wokeness - again couched in vague terms.

          Of course, it’s a for-profit corporation. Jesus specifically said that getting a high ROI is divine.

      Depends on which tier of republican you’re referring to. People like Trump and Giuliani are defective in the sense that they’ll happily lie through their teeth for personal gain without that pesky conscience getting in the way.

      The voting base is defective in that they have no critical thinking skills to see through these obvious lies.

      Different priorities. If your goal is to see your stock portfolio go up and ignore everything else, voting republican makes sense because that’s their goal too.

      Not saying it’s right but that’s what it is.

          Definitely not facts

          Usually republicans make things go up for a while, then they pass a bunch of stupid shit, destabilize the economy and cause a crash for democrats to clean up.

          It’s more about control of congress than anything else, the president doesn’t have a huge impact on stock prices on the whole

            If you are comparing the orange traitor to Brandon (not sure that’s what you’re intimating), consider both data points at the same time in their presidential trajectories.
