Why would Republican Lites seize an Opportunity to connect with the Working Class?

[–] bad_news@lemmy.billiam.net 14 points 5 days ago

Exactly. They've been trying to shed our poor asses since like 1972, finally realized their dream of becoming the party of the Cheney clan, are out of power (so they can tell the hippies the forever wars are the GOP's fault), and the PR execs who run the party just made a record setting cut of $1.5 billion. These people are living their best lives at a level we can barely imagine!
