The right intends to force every American to live their definition of a good life through government edict
And it won’t stop with Trump, he is their tool and they will keep hammering their nail with other tools.
This is the bit that infuriates me when talking with folks who aren’t as engaged politically, Trump is a symptom, he’s a vessel for all the hatred and vitriol. When he is gone the ideology will persist within the GOP and conservative thought for decades
This right here. Trump is a puppet and when he is gone they will find another one.
I prefer to think of him as a tumor: the tumor wouldn’t exist without the underlying cancer (and removing it while leaving the cancer otherwise untreated doesn’t save you) but it’ll still kill you.
I’m not a doctor so I’m not sure whether the parenthesis is true of literal cancer, but it definitely is in the case of political and cultural cancer like this.
