The Republican Party is masterful in using euphemisms, Orwellianisms and distortion to confuse voters. They could do the honorable thing and tell the truth.

They attack diversity, equity and inclusion. They could just as well say the party stands for discrimination, inequity and internment. That would be truthful.

They attack immigrants when what they are really doing is showing their hatred for anyone who is not white. As if their ancestors did not immigrate here, enslave millions of people and cause genocide against the true inhabitants of this land.

They use anti-discrimination language to discriminate against people who disagree with them. As soon as the Supreme Court said race cannot be used to gerrymander, the Republican Party in historically discriminatory states couldn’t wait to disenfranchise Black people from representation in Congress and their statehouses. Tell the truth. Say your hatred knows no bounds. Stop lying.

Under the guise of securing borders, the thugs and gangsters who staff ICE and the Border Patrol do the bidding of their white masters by rounding up law-abiding citizens whose only crime is pigment, not to mention killing their community supporters.

Tell the truth. Say hatred is the reason.

Congress (both houses) is controlled by Republicans. They have taken away Medicaid, SNAP and other benefits from poor people. They say the war is the cause. Tell the truth. Hatred of poor people is at the core of their actions.

There is an evil cancer in the Republican Party.

All I can say is: 86 47.
