Yeah, no it's pretty fair assessment of the party. You as an individual may have different beliefs, but your differing beliefs don't represent the party and their rhetoric.

FFS the ex president convinced a mob of people that the election was rigged and they stormed the Capitol Building looking to capture/kill the legislators who were confirming the results. If a republican president of the United States doesn't represent the republican party then who does?

Americans, pleeeeease, say if it's America or not before making such statements.
