To say nothing of the costly, deadly, and never ending wars the GOP has created (Reagan, Bush Sr., GW Bush) to support their corporate sponsors. And they continue to sell the snake oil economic theory called "Trickle Down," promising their cultish followers that giving tax cuts to the rich will create jobs. The only thing it creates is more wealth for the 1% and a widening economic gap. Under the leadership of Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan, they have had only one interest, and that is providing for the rich so that they can get campaign contributions that allows them to have political victories. And the Supreme Court, packed with GOP supporters, has aided them in this quest with the decision known as Citizens United, which gives corporations the same rights as people when it comes to campaign contributions.
