As always, the explicit Republican strategy is to decline to defend their decisions and record and instead irresponsibly scapegoat people of another race, belief, or national origin while tying their opponent to the Other.

It's not just disingenuous, it's unbelievably dangerous.
The truth is there is no defendable GOP strategy to present to voters. They can’t tout their record as they are opposed to using government to help anyone besides the obscenely wealthy.

The only thing they can do is author a fear and promise they can protect from it. That’s it.
And meanwhile, GOP fearmongering and xenophobic, racist scapegoating is amplified by Fox News and other propaganda arms until it seems real and everpresent to these cult members and hate crimes explode and international tensions mount.

This is a nightmare. A literal nightmare.
