I disagree with you painting republicans as evil, nasty psychopaths. The Republicans don't have an evil agenda. I am a gay man. I am not a Democrat or a Republican, I am a Constitutional Conservative. There are things that the Democrats did after Trump was elected that was pretty vile, starting with Maxine Waters telling her supporters to hunt down Trump supporters in gas stations, restaurants, anywhere you find them and tell them they aren't welcome here any more. Or Speaker Pelosi tearing Trump's State of the Union address on national television. Both sides have been really nasty here lately. This is where I agree we need to stand united as a citizenry. If our politicians can divide us with hate,fear then they can tear this country apart.
I don't believe in a hyphenated America, African American, Asian American, White American, Mexican American. But the media and politicians use it all the time. This is just another way to divide us ethnically. I didn't read your original article or the response just this one.
I may not agree with your assessment of the Republicans but as a veteran I served to give everyone the right to free speech whether I agree or not.
God bless you
