    Good thing the dems made it easy by putting the interests of a foreign genocidal apartheid state before their voters. […] repeat the same strategy and lose the next election as well.

    Republicans are literally laying the ground work to turn the USA into a fascist dictatorship that is in lock step with Russia and Israel, but alright cool. Good thing we have more concern for a foreign conflict then the survival of our own democracy.
