relates to slimy substances on top of other substances.

Republicans are not only on top, but usually on the bottom. I hate them with every fiber of my being, sure it's not a healthy way of being. Kick these fuckers to the curb!

Because so many of them got out early on after the 2016 election and have shown that they're not morally and spiritually ugly people. (Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace, e.g.) I may disagree -- I do disagree -- with their politics, but, but with these Republicans, the party comes second to the country. I really believe they need to form a new party, however, not try to "reform" the shambles Trump has made of the old.

But I gotta say, if you put a bunch of Trump signs up on your front lawn to own the libs, yeah, I think you're a willing part of the layer of scum on the surface of a dying America. And if, at this late stage, you still believe Trump has never lied to the American people, ditto.
