Vance and T steal piece after piece of our government and traditions. It this is true we have already lost the battle. I hope you are wrong about this. MTG wants a statue of the guy put in the Capitol building. What simple madness. We may as well take women, gays, trans and minorities out, line them up and do away with them. It certainly would save on the slow, fear filled future of nothing but threats, madness and degradation!
