You need to pay attention to who is saying what. I don't know that Bernie Sanders has ever said "let's bomb the Middle East" and at the same time I don't think Mitt Romney is on the same level as MAGA hats.
I get your point, but it’s important to remember that the “acceptable” republicans have very little actual disagreements with the MAGA crowd. The real difference is found in messaging, that’s it.
I mean, I'd never vote Republican again after the shit show of a Supreme Court they've put together, but there are some Republicans that have stayed fairly center of the aisle but still allow MAGA/teaparty policies to go through.
