[lbo-talk] The hard truth is that the GOP can’t lose any of its shrinking base by alienating the lunatic fringe

[Charles Brown]

"The hard truth is that the GOP can’t lose any of its shrinking base
by alienating the lunatic fringe and their supporters, from the Ted
Nugents to the Cliven Bundys to the white supremacists. You see, what
we view as radicals, the GOP views as their last, best hope."
