The Apology Every Republican Owes America

To put it bluntly, we Republicans failed to protect democracy, defend the Constitution, and tell the truth about the results of a fair and honestly decided election in 2020.

As a result, it is abundantly clear that Democrats are the only functioning, adult, professional, serious, and responsible political party in America, and Joe Biden must win reelection. And Democrats fully deserve to win substantial majorities in both the House and Senate.

We Republicans have proven ourselves incapable of contributing to the national sanity, and cannot even keep the House of Representatives open with majority power. We have unfortunately turned even too radical and incompetent to even govern ourselves, let alone the entire country.

The Faustian bargains we Republicans have made since the 2010 Tea Party movement’s leveraging of racism and other-ing of Barack Obama in order to obtain governmental power in order to pass extreme tax cuts for the mega rich have backfired, and this mob mentality of politics has morphed into the MAGA movement and House Freedom Caucus which is currently using a micro-minority of House Republicans to legislatively suicide bomb attack our Congress and keep the House unprecedentedly Speaker-less.
