    It seems like politics draws in a lot of flawed people generally, but Republicans have been electing an amazing number of absolutely horrible human beings. Gaetz, Green, Bobert, Cruz, Jordan, Santos… oh, and of course Trump. Lots more. Just really, really bad people.

      When Republicans send its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

      Politicians often reflect the wishes of the people who vote them in. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that “only the threat of hell keeps people from doing bad things” Christians tend to vote republican.
