This is what the Republican Party has become. Not all racists and bigots are Republicans but everyone who doesn’t either quit the party or demand that the likes of Boebert be expelled just proves that (s)he is a racist and a bigot

The gaslighting!
“but things have never been better for (insert historically oppressed minority demographic)”
“It’s cuz libs wanna make everything about racism, just look at CRT!”
“If they’s so diverse then whatabout the war on Christmas”
“But no one in Merica is more victimized than white straight gun-toting Christian men”

One of the many sick things about this country is that there are people who actually LOVE her.
