One of the most “Country Songs” I can recall in recent memory is by Luke Combs. It’s called “Beer Never Broke My Heart.” It opens with,

Some politicians lie more than others, but none lie as much as Democrats do to their base. The thick blue carapace showed a few stress fractures last November. The party of Democracy’s anointed candidate, the progressive elite’s third choice in a row, screwed the pooch.

Left-wingish Tesla owners are checking their already pricey auto insurance plans to see if they have the “mostly peaceful protests” rider. Greenwashers shall ignore the added emissions inventory (burning lithium transportation platforms are toxic to the biosphere). And Democrat politicians, with nothing of value to offer and very little direction, are back to “running on” we’re not them and they’re evil.
How many Dems had to Google which direction the feet on the Swastika went, or did their ideologically aligned blood give them instinctive knowledge?
