All the racist stuff and culture war BS is a distraction. Economists studied the data and found republicans are bad for the economy, which is what everyone who’s lives through their policies would tell you. They help out their wealthy donors, which is why they get the “good for economy” label but that’s a lie and myth.

Many analyses look at which party is best for the economy. A study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that Democratic presidents since World War II have performed much better than Republicans. On average, Democratic presidents grew the economy by 4.4% each year versus 2.5% for Republicans.

Republicans are just bad at running the country on so many levels.

    Pretty much every Republican idea is bad. The party should be dissolved, its members and donors disenfranchised, and their crimes prosecuted.

    They are bad people, either through malice or incompetence, it doesn’t matter.

      The RNC is slowly being dissolved and will be promptly replaced by the DNC as the dominant conservative party.

      That’s why they have to do this culture war bullshit. Their actual policies are so wildly unpopular that they have to trick people into thinking they can save them from the gay trans liberal cats and dogs or something.
