The party of law and order

 Trump tweeted to his mob of insurrectionists in Washington, "Remember we are the party of law and order." They look like it!

The police reacted violently against Black Lives Matter protests and they have a track record of attacking black Americans without provocation.

When a group of predominantly white protestors held an anti-democracy protest in Washington, the boys in blue were incapable of stopping them.

So far Trump's antics have cost the Republicans Georgia. Now Republicans are praying that Trump will be boarding a midnight train out of their lives.

The public have seen the ugly and unacceptable face of the Republican Party so why on earth should anyone want to vote for them?

One reason is that the Repubicans have billions of dollars to conduct political campaigning.

Another is that the Democrats are seen as weak because of their failure to present a political alternative to the Republicans. They can be portrayed as a "metropolitan elite" remote from the concerns of working class Americans.

America could use a party of the working class. So could the UK.
