Can I suggest these are no longer 'cheap political points' but fundamental to what the Republican Party now believes are essential to the survival of the USA?

But, on these fundamentals, what is found?

Truth, honesty and integrity from a party that gives House Committee positions to election deniers who actively attempted to prevent the legal transition of power from Republicans to Democrats in January 2020.

Claims to be the party of freedom and individual choice that imposes its rigid views on others, from children to adults, dictating what books are acceptable in school libraries, or not; dictating to pregnant women what the outcome of their pregnancy must be.

A party that insists it has the right to ban the free discussion of American history when that history makes it uncomfortable.

A right to life party that believes in, and practices State Executions.

A party that believes Almighty God has decreed there are only two genders, Men and Women, and any other proposal is thus, by definition a rejection of God's authority.

A party that gives firearms to lunatics to kill children, and doesn't care.

On so many fundamental issues, who does this party represent? And if it is only 30% of the general public, should their representation in the Federal and State legislatures not reflect the people's choice?

And how, ultimately, are Rights to be defined, and who has them? For Rights were, and for some still are, the foundations of the USA.
