Our Constitutional Republic faces a clear and present danger more deadly than that of the Civil War. The danger is the Republican Party, a "political party" that has sold out to white supremacy, autocracy, misogyny, and hatred of everything our Nation stands for. Republicans dismiss any sense of a common American narrative. The "Republican Party" is an outlier in our history – ideologically extreme; contemptuous of social and economic policies that have sustained us for a century; unwilling to compromise; dismissive of evidence, fact, and science; dismissive of the legitimacy of any viewpoint except their own. America needs to face the simple, frightening fact that the Republican Party is a clear and present danger to our Constitutional Republic.

Is EVERY Republican as stupid as Jen Kiggans?

Jen Kiggans is a GOP candidate for Congress in Virginia’s 2nd Congressional District, challenging incumbent Democrat Elaine Luria.

So — Kiggans went to a grocery store, picked a random item off the shelf, and used it to attack Luria.

Let’s count the ways that Kiggans is dumb, dumb, dumb:

Tostitos are CORN chips, made from corn, not potatoes.
Corn chips are a luxury item.
Neither the President nor individual members of Congress have any influence over prices that manufacturers charge for their product.
Picking out one random item from one random store roves nothing.
Kiggans is a nurse — how did she graduate from nursing school with no more sense than this?

This is what passes for intelligence in Republican circles. This woman is so stupid it burns.
