This just in: The more white, the more Christian and the more uneducated you are, the more likely you are to vote Republican.

The “white” fits in with the racist slant of most Republican positions.

The “Christian” fits in with a personality willing to believe anything so long as you wish it were true.

The “under educated” thing is the most helpful for the Republican Party. The more people understand the facts about a thing, the more they wonder why anyone would ever vote for a Republican. Thus, the GOP targets the white, gullible, uneducated portion of our population.

Let’s take a look at how this plays out. We are approaching a point in a couple of days where we will not be able to pay our debts because of an artifact known as the “debt ceiling.” All that is needed to avoid an economic catastrophe is for Congress to agree to raise the ceiling like they always do.

Here are their positions as stated by their party leaders. I’m putting it in quotes but rest assured, I’m paraphrasing.

Democrats: “We need to raise the debt ceiling so that we are authorized to pay our national debt. This means we can pay social security. This means we can pay our military. This means we can make payments on the $7.8 trillion dollar of overspending that took place under the Trump administration. It has nothing to do with our current budget or the current talks taking place with regards to infrastructure. It just means we are allowed to pay our current bills.”

Republicans: “We can’t support the communist budget of the Democrats while they allow non-whites to flow across our borders. We need to support our troops just as God intended us to do. If we don’t stop them now, they will turn us all into Chinese. And furthermore, budgets are important and we can’t allow for unsafe elections while Democrats are funding abortions with buy-1-get-1-free coupons.”

See? The GOP only has to get in a couple of meaningless phases and their sheep follow. Say something bad about non-whites. Say something about God. Make up other stuff that sounds scary because the illiterate you are pandering to won’t know the difference.

This….this is why we can’t have nice things.

Time to save the world.

Up, up and away…
