Republicans aren't children stealing cookies.
They often have the same cognitive ability for critical thinking. Although after this post I’m not so sure of either side
No, they don't. All you seem to be doing is to say Republicans aren't bad, but you aren't showing us how that is.
Well if you look you will find some examples. Didn’t the republicans vote for the veterans care act to push through the use of psilocybin and mdma for treatment resistant veterans suffering from ptsd? I would imagine it would have been hard to go against the grain to make that decision and I’m sure there were a lot of republican voters who weren’t happy but it seems like the obvious right choice
Wait, if you're a Republican and you're admitting that Republican politicians don't have critical thinking ability, then why are you still voting for having them run a country and affecting the livelihoods of millions (billions) of people?
If the only Republican policies you're supporting are benign ones (as a non-American, I don't know which those are), are they worth all the ones that oppress and take away the rights of others?
And if you're a Republican but not a fan or voter of the Republican party as it stands, then maybe you need to reconsider what your definition of a Republican is, because Republicans themselves today are defining themselves in ever-bolder terms.
I’m not a republican. I’m not even American, I’m Mozambican. But I do vote liberal in my country
Then you'd do well to get informed before spouting nonsense.
