Lol! Sounds like you haven't been reading the newspapers lately. Do yourself a favor by getting your mind off of Fo卐 television and learn to get in touch with the real world.
It didn't take anytime at all for you to make the ginormous leap to Nazi references.
No doubt, just check-out the 'statistics ' that our friend offers.... All of them are biased, simple opinions and so skewed that even a 3rd grade kid would roll their eyes
It must be a conspiracy! But then you have to wonder, if he was planted why was he named by WaPo?
Confederate flag in front of White House? Our politics as war by other means
Republican self destruction:
It's been a bad few weeks for the GOP. Hopefully, it'll get even worse in the next election in two weeks.

If you take a poll of twenty people and ask them if 10 plus 10 equals 36 and 75 % agree does that mean that the 15 idiots are right ?
A War on the Poor

John Kasich, the Republican governor of Ohio, has done some surprising things lately. First, he did an end run around his state’s Legislature — controlled by his own party — to proceed with the federally funded expansion of Medicaid that is an important piece of Obamacare. Then, defending his action, he let loose on his political allies, declaring, “I’m concerned about the fact there seems to be a war on the poor. That, if you’re poor, somehow you’re shiftless and lazy.”

Obviously Mr. Kasich isn’t the first to make this observation. But the fact that it’s coming from a Republican in good standing (although maybe not anymore), indeed someone who used to be known as a conservative firebrand, is telling. Republican hostility toward the poor and unfortunate has now reached such a fever pitch that the party doesn’t really stand for anything else — and only willfully blind observers can fail to see that reality.
The big question is why.

Well, at least the Republican party no longer claims to be the party of moral, family, and biblical or Christian values.

"It's not only a war on the poor. It's a counter-revolution against the New Deal. ... Wall Street gets billions every month in quantitative easing... . The downtrodden get a kick in the teeth."

Obamacare in conjunction with the current anti-employment policies of that gvt are the biggest war on the poor going.
LOL! I suppose that's why 700,000 new people have enrolled for health care coverage under Obamacare.
