Reid Says White Christian Conservatives Think that America Was ‘Built for Them,’ So Everyone Needs to ‘Let Them Have Their Way or Else...’

‘The Republicans have gone from pretending to be the party of personal responsibility to unmasking themselves as the party of selfish people’

EXCERPT:

REID: “Literally everything I do is fine because I am a special citizen. And who are these special citizens? Well, they’re white so-called Christian conservatives who feel like this country was built by them for them, and so everyone but them needs to suck it up and let them have their way or else. And their party, the Republicans, have gone from pretending to be the party of personal responsibility to unmasking themselves as the party of selfish people who cannot play well with others. And they even have their own cable networks, plus something called GETTR, which kind of sounds like porn. Moving on. Anywhom, I'm an old 'Star Trekkie,' you know, old Trekkie, love 'Star Trek,' so they kind of reminds me of Charlie from that classic 'Star Trek' episode. You know, the annoying alien incel who destroys everything around him when he doesn’t get his way. So the special citizen says, 'I don’t want to wear a mask. And if you try to make me, I’ll attack those low-waged clerks at the store or at the Burger King. And I don’t want to get vaccinated either. People get sick from me, oh well, not my problem. Joe Rogan said it was fine. My kids aren’t going to get mask up to protect other kids. F those other kids. Their parents are probably commies anyway.' Which usually means people who want rights for other people and who actually give a them what happens to them. So this midterm election year we are going to find out which brand of citizenship is stronger, and the answer will tell us whether our democracy is strong enough to survive."
