They will do it because the only thing they value is power. They will do it because they hate the America we have built. They will do it because they have no souls, no compassion, and no faith in our Constitution. They will do it because they haven't finished hurting all those people they look down on.

Count on it. They will be back.

They also imagine that their ignorance is better than the commitment to the greater good, intelligence, hard work, thoughtful dialogue, and COMPROMISE, which is necessary to the actual process of governing.

They also see themselves as better and above everyone who is not in power, or not part of feeding that power. We are merely cattle or sheep in their eyes.
