Republicans have a "deep bench" of pricks [View all]

Senators Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Tom Cotton; Governors Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott; Ex Secretary of State Mike Pompeo; and, of course, the Mar-a-Lago carbuncle on the ass of humanity, TFG.

For those who don't know, "Deep bench" is a sports term which means that a team has a large number of talented players. Yet, the only thing these people are talented at is being leading members of the most dangerous, uncaring, horrible people in today's American politics.

I mean, these are really miserable human beings. They are against everything that sane people consider decent. They are for everything that much of humanity would define as evil.

What I'm getting at is that they are the embodiment of the current Republican Party. They are among the "leaders" of one of the two major parties of "The Greatest Country in the World." -- And that scares the shit out of me.

I mean, really. Try naming a group of people (not convicted of being serial killers) worse than these would-be tyrants.
