It's very obvious they'll permanently alienate 40 percent of their base? I mean, they might, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on them being *that* suicidal.

Yeah, misogyny is strong enough that the Republicans might put up a comparable fight. I guess the better question is if white panic will lessen under her administration, which would be yet another factor harming the Republican party's electoral viability, and hence, very ability to obstruct.

In the end times, all the children of darkness will be allied against the sons and daughters of light and the Sun.

Clinton and Sanders are white, so the Republicans probably couldn't get away with fucking with them quite as much as with Obama.

The Phalangist movement literally started because someone went to Nazi Germany and was like, "This is great. Let's do that." Pair that with genocidal actions, and, well, I hate to tell you, buddy…
