akjeNow the talk is about how to unify Republicans and Democrats, as if that's a problem.
Nope.
Never was. Conservatives and liberals will always have their differences, but that's not a problem. There are plenty of marriages out there to prove it. James Carville/Mary Matalin and Joe Scarborough/Mika Brzezinski jump to mind. What we have today is something quite different.
On one side we have Republicans, Democrats and Independents. On the other side we have MAGA.
For those who didn't get the memo, MAGA is a hate group.
A hate group.
A misogynistic, white supremacist, "Christian" nationalist, anti-democratic hate group. They are un-American. They just don't realize it.
Yet.
Normalizing MAGA would be like the Germans saying, "We need to make peace with the Nazis and reunify Germany!"
Um, no. No, we don't.
What needs to happen is this: the Nazis need to cease to exist; they are evil. There is no benefit to humanity in normalizing evil. After the war, the Nazis who weren't executed for their crimes were rehabilitated. Deprogrammed.
And that's exactly what needs to happen with MAGA.
