Tuberville failed to mention that he’s personally prevented hundreds of officers from being promoted because he disagrees with a 2022 Pentagon policy.

    I agree. Had you asked me years ago (before Trump), I would likely have argued that the Republican party could still ditch their extremist elements and return to being a sane party. (Conservative, but still sane.)

    I’m not sure if I was naive or if they’ve gotten worse, but I definitely wouldn’t say this about them now.

      I think it’s both. I, myself, have learned in the past decade or so that there is no such thing as a “sane” conservative party.

      Conservative values, ideals, policy, etc. are inherently trash, and no amount of air freshener can cover up that stench.
