    Great to see it happening, but I wish a Republican introduced it. Not only would it show there’s a break for reason, but it’d also prevent it from being labeled a Democratic hoax, give it a reasonable chance of making it to the Senate, allow some Republicans to show an ounce of reasonableness to the cult’s face, reassure some allies that the party in charge hasn’t completely lost its mind, and serve as a warning to the cult.

      You sure you really want that? If republicans start backing off now, people will forget all this, repubs will start winning elections again, the country will carry on like none of this ever happened, and we’ll be right back here a few cycles from now. The only way to solve this problem for any length of time is to follow it to its bitter end, anything else is just kicking the can down the road.
