Hayes Brown, an opinion writer on MSNBC, seems to give Republicans more credit than they deserve. <\/p>\n
It’s common to imagine that your opponent is more thoughtful, calculating and sneaky than he really is. Their chaos and disorganization is all part of a clever plot, you see. The trick is to figure it out. Brown thinks he has. <\/p>\n
Brown asks why conservatives are upset about the “un-publishing” of six Dr. Seuss books, when they should (he thinks) be uniting against Biden’s COVID bill? <\/p>\n
The core of the GOP’s war plan is to go on offense with these skirmishes in the culture war while at the same time focusing on heavy defense and a siege mentality in Washington. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He might be right on the second half of that statement — that the GOP will obstruct and delay and spend two years on defense. But I could only hope and pray that the first part were true. If it were, I might become a Republican! <\/p>\n
The GOP hasn’t gone on the offense on any “culture war” issues for a very long time. Not in any meaningful way, that is. They’ll say all the right things in their campaign speeches, and on Tucker Carlson, but they don’t do anything. <\/p>\n
Donald Trump did a little<\/i> to combat wokeism, but much more needs to be done, because the woke are a bigger threat to the country than COVID. <\/p>\n
That sounds ridiculous, because COVID kills people, while all wokeism does is divide the country into the intolerably stupid and those who are passive in the face of intolerable stupidity. But wokeism is leading the country towards a form of authoritarianism that will kill a lot more people than COVID. <\/p>\n
There’s an ugly tendency is the heart of man that comes out from time to time as pogroms, witch trials, “cultural revolutions” and inquisitions. That’s where we’re headed unless the GOP wakes up and grows a pair. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
