Jim Banks is dumb on so many levels.
Isn't that a prerequisite for being a republican at this point?
There are a small portion of smart Republicans who are just evil and get the stupid ones to go along with them. See Project 2025 for an example.
Yeahhhhhh idk man. I just don't think it's smart to support the group of people spurring on the destruction of the very environment that they require to survive. Both in a global warming sense as well as a general societal sense. Absurd unethical greed has worked a couple of times in history, but it backfires really frequently.
I think the smarter tactic would be to simply keep the machine running the same way it has been, while giving fractions of your wealth to the poor as a pittance. That way you can still live an absurdly privileged life and not have to worry about being shot in the street in NYC.
That's why you're not a part of the Heritage Foundation.
They preferentially select for Evil first, but being both evil and dumb on so many levels is definitely how to get ahead in the organization.
And Jim Banks isn't even the dumbest Republican in the Senate. That honor goes to Tommy Tuberville, hands down.
Only surpassed by those that vote for him and those that don't bother voting against him.
