The Problem With the GOP is That a Goodly Fraction of Them Hate This Country

Well, that's not exactly correct. What they want is a time in the past, a time that few, if any of them, experienced as adults.

They want to turn the clock back to the 1950s, a time when almost all of the good jobs were held by white men. Women were nurses, teachers, waitresses, secretaries and hoousewives. Minorities were doing low/no-skill work, they knew their place, had their own crappy schools, and they didn't/couldn't vote. Gays were aggressively kept in the closet and any queer or person of color who stepped out of line got a hickory-shampoo from the cops (or came down with a sudden case of bullet wounds).

The problem is that a large majority of the people in this country are not interested in going back seventy years. So the only way they can get to where they want to be is through overthrowing the government and installing a dictatorship.

That is why Tuckyo Rose and the rest of his ilk worship Putin.
