Welcome to the annual Republican dumpster fire
Many Republicans are quite busy right now and will be so through the weekend. This is because Republicans are heading to their most precious hideaway, their sweet spot, the place where it all began! The NRA convention.
That’s right. As the country struggles to contain its grief after multiple mass shootings, republicans apparently are having no such troubles. For they’re heading toward their special place, their “safe space,” the GOP Garden of Eden! And what a place it is!
Assolini will be there at one of the few places he’s welcome these days. Nikki Haley will be there. Ron DeSantis will appear virtually. It’s the hot ticket event of the year for the GOP, the one place (other than the supreme court) where they find love and acceptance.
Here at the GOP Garden of Eden, there is firepower — guns — glittering everywhere, ready to be seen and admired by Republican Adam and Eves everywhere.
And in this valley of guns, in this garden of evil — (I’m sorry — Eden!) Republicans will make their speeches, do their deals, huddle with high-ranking NRA executives, milling about.
Promises will be made, and information swapped. Here in the garden of EVIL (Pardon me — EDEN), many a Republican will be off to one side, perhaps munching on canapes, while assuring their NRA masters — their gods — that no sensible gun reform will EVER make it through Congress.
Yes, this is their big event, their gun-happy event, the event that makes Republicans into gun movers and shakers. No Democrats will be there. We will be doing what WE do best — educating the people, warning America of the threat of Maga Republicans, and, most of all, advocating for the best our country has to give.
