The Bully Party

I’m glad to see the media pointing this out:

Our politics is driving people away from our shared humanity, says @jaketapper, as a Republican candidate attempts to exploit the terrible tragedy on the set of Alec Baldwin’s film, for political gain.

For some Republican leaders, cruelty is a feature, not a bug, he says. pic.twitter.com/GTFls3ZzHk

I noted this one yesterday:

Sadly, the truth is that this is a feature not a bug for the average right winger. In fact, it not even that. It is the fundamental reason they love these people so much. Sticking it to the libs or really anyone, as crudely as possible is their only organizing principle. Being a mean, nasty bully is second nature to them now and they don’t even see what they are doing.

I think what amazes me the most is the fact that so many of them call themselves Christians.
