No better than the political left? Right, because the left has embraced white supremacists and historical revisionists who think Hitler was okay, right? The left has embraced foreign hostile dictators, sided with them against the U.S. (despite proven cyber terrorism) and committed insurrection, yeah?
Don't get me wrong, I think the political left is filled with idiots (I said as much in a recent post). But to compare them to the state of the political right at this moment and claim there's some sort of parity between the two is beyond ignorant, if not disingenuous!
Speaking of which, I question your claim that you were "the Democrat." It sounds to me like you were always a conservative who is only starting to wake up to the vile and sinister tendencies of the right-wing. Your partway there, but you haven't achieved realization yet.
