Rand Paul and The Mental Decline of the Republican Party
The Republican party has turned into a cult, depriving otherwise sane people of their mental capabilities.
I have never particular liked US Senator Rand Paul, but unlike Donald Trump I have always believed him to be a person of normal ability to reason and think. Part of the sane Republican establishement. Yet watching the Republican party under Donald Trump is like watching some Alzheimer patient in rapid mental decline.
I hope I don’t offend anyone suffering from it or having a loved one who does. It is not something anyone can control. The American Republican party in contrast has brought this upon themselves. It is the steady dripping of odd statements from various Republican leaders that make me question their mental well being.
The latest is this tweet by Rand Paul:
When anyone tell you something as shockingly stupid, one will struggle to respond, because the statement is so utterly idiotic. Where to begin?
