These are terrible people and if you’re still a Republican at this point, it’s not a deal breaker for you.

    Yes. I’m not sure what this ‘damage control’ is.

      guessing they didn’t go far enough for some people, so now they have to double down on the vile rhetoric.

          This whole election has made me sad and angry.

          Like, seriously. How is this even close? Trump is worse in every meaningful way. Economy, immigration. Law and order. He’s not even “godly” for the Christian vote.

            You don’t need to be ‘Godly’ to suit angry, vengeful Christians who think the Bible says ‘you’re better than everyone else because you’re white and watch Fox News’. Sadly, being an arsehole is sufficient spiritual nourishment for a large minority.

            Look at the Senate races.

            Most of the swing state races the Dems are 6+points ahead or more.

            The presidential one is bogus. There is no way there is that big a difference between the down ballot and presidency. This is the Republicans from 2012 and 2022 all over again. They had polls that said Mittens was going to beat Obama by 10-12 points.

            Vote. She’s gonna win if we vote.

              2020, Trump lost because people who were voting republican down ballot did not vote for him.

              this time, it’s going to be lost by who loses the most voters simply not voting in the presidential election.

              In any case, I’ve confirmed that my ballot has already been accepted, so… not much more I can do now than to encourage others to vote too.
