The Republican claim on hard-nosed, reality-based reasoning is just so astoundingly mendacious. I find myself legitimately perplexed over the whole thing.
I mean, the guys who believe the Earth is 6,000 years old, trickle-down economics work, ectopic pregnancies are a gift from God and mustn’t be stopped, vaccines are poisonous, life doesn’t evolve, and Donald Trump was a good president are the down-to-Earth realists? Is this performance art of some kind?
