Kunstler gets the Republican Party right today, and with a nice turn of phrase:
[A] gang of hypocritical, pietistic sadists, seeking pleasure in the suffering of others while pretending to be Christians, devoid of sympathy, empathy, or any inclination to simple human kindness, constant breakers of the Golden Rule, enemies of the common good.

They are acting like the playground bully who gets punched in the mouth. They are bleeding, running, and warning “we’re gonna be sorry,” and “they’ll be back.” They are sad little frat boy twerps.
