Whiney Little Bitches

Can we get a psychoanalyst to assess the GOP's fascination with martyrdom? It goes:

Jesus Christ -> The Confederate Army -> all Christians -> Trump -> any Republicans seeking public office

This seems to be thruline/pattern for the American Right, that there is not greater honor than being a martyr in their eyes; the problem is they insist on both being the martyr AND wielding the most amount of power over everyone else at all times. Of course it's also hard to blame them since the American Left constantly bends over backwards to ensure Republicans get to enjoy both of these two very different things, so.

NEXT: will we ever get a Republican nominee again who doesn't have daddy issues?
