LETTER: The GOP gets what it wished for — good and hard
January 18, 2021 - 9:00 pm
Members of the GOP wished for unregulated capitalism. They got a powerful Big Tech oligopoly that canceled Donald Trump. They wished for appointing conservative judges and controlling the Supreme Court. They got 60-plus losses in court challenges to the election outcome due to lack of evidence. They wished for attracting more voters by riding the rising tide of a personality cult. They got a fanatic constituency that they are enslaved by.
They got what they wished for and what they deserved.
