You said I don't listen to Republicans, but there was just an election so I definitely have - and it all sounded insane.

I'm one of those annoying "factosphere" guys who wants politics to comport with observable reality, and to me, what the GOP ran on sounded like they'd overindulged on hallucinogens.

A lot of it wasn't really even debatable, like arguing whether gravity causes things to fall rather than fly, or that the ocean isn't above the clouds. I mean, the border isn't open, there's no immigrant crime wave, the inflation rate is back down, mass deportations would be an economic and human rights disaster, the dictionary says the Democrats aren't Communists, and Somalis aren't eating the dogs.

But surely there was something that made sense(?)
