I fear what I think I am seeing as long-term Republican strategy
First off let me say that I honestly do believe that there is such a thing as long-term Republican strategy; their successes have been too frequent and too many in the last two decades to be the result of happenstance.
I think they have purposefully sent buffoons to Washington with no care for what damage they might do on a national scale but more for their ability to divert attention from activities at the state level. Do you know what the difference between UFOs and stolen elections in the United States is? While there is no credible evidence at all for the existence of UFOs there are many people who believe in them whereas while there is ample evidence that elections have been stolen here no one seems to believe it. Republicans have learned they can steal elections in the states and more importantly they have learned that they can more effectively impose their version of moral authority over the commoners by action at the state level rather than at the national level. So they send idiots to Washington to draw attention while they eat away at the fabric of society like a bunch of moral termites in the individual states. Once again, I have to believe that this is not happenstance, it is the result of careful planning and execution, and it grows worse by the year.
