Hypocrisy

Classic hypocrisy - Trump can spout all manner of sexist, racist, homophobic and vulgar slurs and the Republican Party says and does nothing.  And then a newly sworn in Democrat congresswoman pledged to "impeach that motherf*cker", and the Republican Party gets outraged.  Get over it.  It's no worse than, say, calling Haiti and some African nations "sh*thole countries", calling Colin Kaepernick a "son of a bitch", or bragging about grabbing women "by the p*ssy".  Generally, I would politically call myself center right - but in American politics, I think I more and more identify as center left.  And I actively oppose the Republican Party as it currently is - sadly the moderate Republican, who I would probably most identify with, is an endangered species; I think Mitt Romney may be one of the last ones left, at least he has actually publicly criticized Trump, but even he supports building this f*cking stupid wall.  I despair.
