As brilliant as Rush was, we know a lot more now than we/he knew before he passed. We know now they didn’t just “create messes” out of some misguided approach to policy or procedure. They have been systematically hell-bent on destroying the Republic, and even as recently as the J6 debacle many, many middle-of-the-road conservatives vehemently condemned “Trump supporters” for what happened that day. I still refuse to listen to Glenn Beck, but he wasn’t the only one. And you still see it. They just aren’t comfortable with the idea that anyone would deliberately try to depopulate and rule the world. We conservatives tend to live in denial of how much evil is out there, and we try to “believe the best” in everyone to our detriment.
I completely agree, except for the part about “we conservatives”.
“Some conservatives” tend to live in denial of evil. I might have blind spots, but being able to see the devil tirelessly at work through lies is not one of them. And I believe many here also share this “gift.”

Good point - you’re absolutely right. It’s still just hard for me to accept that there really is such evil in our world.
