And give me some examples of the people that Obama “associated with” that were even remotely as dangerous as criminals like Alex Jones and Roy Moore? I’d be shocked if you could name one that’s even in the same league as those guys. J

This.

Maybe both parties used to be equally bad and I just agreed with the ideas on one side, but the Republican party has gone completely off the deep end and if you don’t see it I don’t know what to tell you.

Apparently there is a wiki for that.

And none of them are anywhere near as influential, despicable, or dangerous as criminals like Alex Jones and Roy Moore or propagandists like Roger Stone and Steve Bannon.

I’ve been hearing that the GOP went off the deep end for as long as I can remember. Maybe after the Democrats crying wolf all these years you’re right. Then again, Trump will be gone in 2-6 years.

They’ve been getting progressively more insane over the past 20-ish years. Now they’re beyond recovery. I think it really took a nosedive with the Tea Party. That’s probably when the crazies really dominated the party. It’s not possible for a person with a sane platform to become their candidate. John Kasich, who I’m sure I’d find plenty of things to disagree with on if I looked into him, actually seemed pretty reasonable in those Republican debates, but he couldn’t compete with morons like Trump or crazies like Cruz. Mitt Romney probably could’ve been an okay candidate and maybe even an okay president, but he got pulled so far to the right in the 2012 primary just to become the nominee because reasonable candidates aren’t welcome in the GOP these days. Before you try to draw a false equivalence to the Dems, I’ll remind you that Hillary was one of the most moderate candidates we’ve had this century except for Al Gore.
