    I heard someone say once that the worst possible thing he could do for approval ratings with his base is go on TV and actually, earnestly apologize for something he did wrong and show true empathy. Like tears in his eyes “I am so sorry” acknowledgement of a wrong.

    Democrats would love a representative with human emotion, but it would be an instant career killer for the GOP.

      Point taken but, and hear me out here, what if he busted out a ukulele and did the apology in song?

      You know this made me think that it’s probably the case that while they think what the Democrats are doing are bringing them further away from their religion, really it’s what the Republicans are doing that’s the most damaging to that relationship.

      Ironic huh?
